These next couple days will complete our first days at each Disney park, each day being a full day at that park (no use for Hoppers yet!
)
The last day of January will be
EMH morning on Magic Kingdom so that's where we're headed.
I'm still not sure about breakfast for this day. I first thought about Main Street Bakery, but eating breakfast when we arrive in the park cause us to lose the precious EMH!
So I'm thinking of eating light at Pop before heading to the park, running to Fantasyland as soon as the park opens to do both the classics that get very crowded throughout the day (Peter Pan and Pooh), Under the Sea (that first, if its included in EMH, after getting FPs for one of the others) and maybe the Mad Tea Party!
Then grab something else for breakfast (I'm thinking of the Nutella Waffle Sandwich at Sleepy Hollow, never ate there and it seems pretty good!). After the waffle, its time for my favorite MK attraction: Haunted Mansion!
We should then tackle Frontierland with Splash Mtn and BTMRR! (having grabbed FP for one of them before the Waffle!)
Depending on the time, we will either do Tom Sawyer Island and Country Bear Jamboree or leave those for later (or for our 2nd MK day) and take the RR to Storybook Circus. If they are into it we can try Dumbo and Pete's Silly Sideshow. Donald and Daisy are my favorite Disney couple
, so to be able to meet them in this new location should be pretty fun! And I'll surely get some more pins of them to add to my pin collection
(I don't have a large pin collection, but I've gathered quite a few themed for some specific attractions like Haunted Mansion and Tower of Terror and specific characters, specially Stitch, Donald and Daisy!)
Now it should be time for lunch, which I'm planning for Be Our Guest! After lunch it's time to stroll around Belle's Village and pass through Fantasyland again (maybe stopping for Phillarmagic).
Now I think would be a nice time to try to see Mickey on Main Street (probably better than early in the morning or after the parade!) and get our silhouettes done (I didn't know about them until recently and if they can do the silhouette of a couple like I've seen on a Disney Parks blog post about
Disneyland it could be something fun to include in our wedding invitations or thank you notes!)
After that probably gonna do Adventureland with PotC, Jungle Cruise, Swiss Family Treehouse and Tiki Room (squeezing a Dole Whip in there!). I'll probably have gone to BTMRR or Splash Mtn to get FPs again.
I don't think we'll watch the daytime parade (unless we feel like we should take a break) and just take advantage of the lower crowds in the attractions during the parade.
After using our FPs it's time to either cross the hub to Tomorrowland or take the RR again depending on our feet!
In Tomorrowland it's straight to either Space Mtn or Buzz and FP to the other. Do all the others like Caroussel of Progress (a classic!), TTA, Laugh Floor, Stitch and, if dark already, AstroOrbiter.
Then it's time to relax again and get us a nice outdoor table at Casey's for some hot dogs and Main Street Electrical Parade! After the parade we get some sundaes at the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor to watch Wishes!
But the night isn't over yet. MK closes at 8pm so there is plenty of time to walk around DTD some more before returning to Pop! Depending on the monorail lines we should take it or walk over to Grand Floridian or Contemporary and grab a bus there to DTD for another evening of shopping and DisneyQuest!
Wow, this day's description got huge!!! I'm already rethinking if all is doable in a single day!
Well, off to February 1st, AK day!
I'm not sure if character dining will appeal to the rest of my party (I think I'll like it, but I've not done one in 18 years!), so we'll do Ohana and then decide if we'll keep the ADR for Tusker House breakfast at AK. If we do we'll enter the park 1 hour before official opening (nice for pictures with empty park! can we get FP to anything at that time?
) and get to meet Donald and Daisy again!
We'll then enjoy the park, focusing FPs on Everest (maybe 1 each for the Safari and Dinosaur if the lines justify FP, if not its EE FPs the whole day!)
Probably won't do Primeval Whirl again.
I bounced way too much last time, not really my idea of good time.
Love to do all the walking trails and want to try out the Discovery Island trails that I'm not sure I did last time! And I want to finally visit Rafiki's PlanetWatch, other times something always came in the way and we didn't take the train there.
Hopefully FotLK will still be showing because that and Finding Nemo are two amazing shows that can't be missed!
We'll stay until the park closes (or just before that to avoid the lines) and then as there are no buses directly to Downtown Disney, we'll take a bus to Port Orleans to visit that resort (the Moderate that appeals the most to me!) and then take a boat to DTD. This will be another evening of shopping around DTD and dinner at T-Rex! (always loved Dinosaurs, so couldn't possibly pass this one!)
This is also our last night in DTD , so there was anything we saw there that we wanted to buy (and didn't buy at first glance!), this should be the night for it! I'll probably stop by
Lego again!
