Hello! My DH and I are heading to WDW for the first time in 6 years and as the schedule laid out, we'll have 2 days in a row at Epcot. We do have park hoppers (new to that as well) and won't be doing LL or G+. But I am unsure how to set up our days. Remy is a big one as DH loves that movie so I was considering rope drop at Intl Gateway one day. We definitely hope to get GOTG and hit our other faves, countries, etc. But I just can't decide how to break it up into 2 days. World showcase one day, spaceship earth showcase (what is that part called? LOL) the other day? Just follow liners suggestions?

Thoughts?

Thanks!
 
We are go with the flow people, which is easy to do at Epcot. I'm assuming since you plan on rope dropping Remy through IG you will be staying at one of those resorts? If so, especially with hoppers it's so easy.

If you are interested in GoTG, get up before 7 and be on your phone/computer with your fingers over the button ready to join the virtual cue. If you don't get it, don't panic, if you are in Epcot at 1, try then. You always have your second day to try for it as well. Rope drop Remy, maybe grab some breakfast at Le Halles afterward, none of WS will be open that early in the morning so after breakfast, go through GB and Canada and over yonder to construction wall city. From there, just hop on whatever rides have low wait times, should be easy to knock out almost all in the front of the park before 11, when WS opens up. Then wander on over to WS and snack around some booths and just go into the countries and be there. I would walk around WS snacking at booths (sharing makes it easier to hit more booths) and just enjoying WS. If you got GoTG check the App every once in awhile to see if your group return time has changed, it often does. The rest of your day is going to depend on your group number. If it's before 2 or a little after, maybe hop over to another park after, you have a whole nuther day to hit the rest of the rides.

I usually go back to my room somewhere between noon and 2 and either hit the pool or just rest a little, which is easy to do if you are staying at one of the Epcot resorts. After I've rested I usually hop to another park. Keep in mind, with hoppers, your park reservation only matters in the morning until 2, after that, you can go to whichever park you want (and who knows if that will change to earlier in 2023). This opens up your days to hop on back over to Epcot or to another park that you've already done if you feel like you didn't get enough the first time.

If you enjoy refreshing adult beverages, check out La Cava in the Mexico pavilion. You can either get something to go at the bar or get your name on a wait list to sit down and enjoy your drink and some chips and dip/or queso and relax.
 
I would plan to hit the must do’s on day 1. Then just go with the flow on day 2. That way you have a backup day in case something goes down on day 1, or you’re too full to eat that last delicious dish. No need to over schedule - hope you have a blast!!
