Moderator:I goofed. I thought I was posting on the theme parks thread. I have reposted on the correct thread. I am not finding a way to delete the entire thread. Please ignore if there is no way to delete. Thanks!

-We are a family of 5: 17, 21, 24 DH and Me.
-We are staying off property and my 30 day window is this week. :dogdance:
-17 refuses to ride Splash Mountain, one doesn't like to be wet and the other said they weren't impressed so the plan is for me and DH to ride splash while others do HM
-I am still debating if 7DMT is worth the hassle and wait. It seems to me that it is not that much more exciting than BTMR.
-This is my children's first trip in 10 years so there may be some new not miss stuff that I haven't considered. My first trip in 9 years.
-I am doing QS meals only. Please include a QS option that will accommodate a low carb vegetarian.
-I like to get to the parks at opening. Take a mid-day break. Return early evening and stay until close. Our condo is close but from what I have read 30 minutes should be planned for each way.
-At this time the park hours are from 9-9. Crowd level at UT is a 5/10. It is a non EMH day for MK.
-We like but don't love shows and we can live without the parade.
-Fireworks are optional. We usually just grab the best spot possible at the last minute. Can we see anything from 7DMT? We may opt for the line while the fireworks are happening. I think there are a lot of projections on the castle now. I am really not into that. I feel like I am going to be watching a movie which I can do in a much more comfortable seat.

Here are our must dos:
Big Thunder Mountain
Space Mountain (This is a favorite. Would like to do 2x if possible)
Splash Mountain /Hunted Mansion
Pirates
Barnstormer
Mad Tea Party
Under the Sea w/ Little Mermaid
Mickey's Philarmagic.

These we would like to do but will survive if it doesn't happen:
Enchanted Tales w/ Belle
7DMT (This could move up to a must do if you tell me I am really missing something)
Winne the Pooh
Astro Orbiter (All but me. I cry every time. I feel like I am going to fly out)
Small World


It should also be noted that the day before DD and I plan on spending a half day at the MK while the rest do Universal. We will then hop over to Epcot. We will be doing the following attractions. The others in the party have no or little interest in these attractions. These are our must do's but I think I have my plan figured out.
-Peter Pan (FP goal)
-Space Mountain (I can't get enough)
-Buzz Lightyear
-Monster's Inc
-Tomorrow Land Cars (FP goal)
-Dumbo (FP goal)
-Magic Carpets
-Mickey's Royal Friendship Faire


Thanks. Planning is so much fun! (not sarcasm) (really)

Hopefully someone moves this thread for you.

Whoops, I thought I was on theme parks attractions and strategies. My bad. i can't believe someone hasn't moved it yet. I'm going to copy and paste and head on over there. I will delete after that. Thanks.
