Any suggestions and opinions would be helpful!!! Cast of Characters: Myself, DH, DS-12, DS-9, DD-8, DS-6, DS-4, & DD-2 I am following TGM's itineraries.
We are arriving in the evening on April 29. We are driving, so we are only going to veg out and explore the grounds at Windsor Hills.
April 30-Grocery shopping and hang out by the pool.
May 1- Magic Kingdom; ADR for Crytal Palace @8:10am
-follows Mike's itinerary for small children
-afternoon break
-Return to MK for more rides ,Spectro & Wishes
May 2- Easy morning and DTD in the afternoon; we are planning on eating at The Earl of Sandwich in the afternoon.
May 3-Pool Day
May 4-MGM-again we are planning on Mike's itinerary for small children. Lunch at the Prime Time @12:15if the youngsters are doing ok-if not we will take a short break. Fantasmic that evening.
May 5- Pool Day
May 6-Animal Kingdom- ADR for Donalds @ 8:10 am. Follow Mike's itin. -Adr for the Rainforest at 11:00 ( a little early for me , but from what I have read, it can take 2 hrs. to get out of here. ) More rides and shows; leave after the Jammin Jungle parade.
May 7- EPCOT-arrive at opening & follow Mike's plan as close as possible. We made ADR for the Princess breakfast. The earliest they had was 8:45am. I didn't think that was optimal, so I took a later seeing of 10:20, but I am still not sure if I can make this one work.Am planning on calling 48 hrs. prior to see if an 8 am has opened to to the cancellations policies. We are going to try to make a full day of EPCOT, but i am unsure if my youngest daughter will hold out. If not we will try to take a break and return later for illuminations.
May 8-11 universal or water parks - unsure which we will do
May 12 -Magic Kingdom- ADR for Chef Mickeys @ 8:00 am. Follow Mike's 2nd day MK itinerary. Stay for the parade at 3p.m.See what the kids want to do after.
May 13-head for home.
I'm not sure if we will actually do all of these character breakfasts. With a party of our size, I needed to book them early. Which ones would you cut out or change. My daughter really wanted to do CRT but it is sooo expensive now, I'm not sure if it is worth it. I thought about just doing it with the 2 girls and let my husband take the boys to the Crystal Palace?!
Thanks for any help! I think my husband thinks I'm obsessed
I guess he's right 
Our youngest has been very ill this past year and I am determined to make this as Magical a trip as I possibly can for the whole family!!!
Thanks Again,

And it is a little less expensive.
We went in October of '04. My then 4yr old niece put on her Cinderella dress, complete with flashing tiara. Prince Charming spent alot of time with her, down on one knee, admiring her outfit. Cinderella was great as well. And the food was yummy! Be warned that it is a little on the loud side, but that is the only bad thing I can think of. I would go there again in a hearbeat!
