July 4th Fireworks: Worth arriving a day early?

[brettb]

Right now, we're scheduled to arrive Saturday, 7/5 and depart Saturday 7/12.

We could arrive a day early, about 2pm on the 4th.

Unless we shift to Friday to Friday, this would mean 1-2 extra car rental days, one more night at Yacht Club, and some extra Southwest points (but not much).

I have a (tentative) reservation for Citrico's at 6:05 on the 4th.

Should we do it?

More importantly, how can I convince DW?

Yes.

Do you intend to be INSIDE MK for the fireworks?

 

[brettb]

Yes.

Do you intend to be INSIDE MK for the fireworks?

I guess I should have added a few more questions:

1) Do we WANT to be inside MK?
1a) Is it even possible (for a resort guest) to get in to the MK after a 6:05 dinner at Citricos? Would entering MK before dinner make a difference?

2) I assume we'll be able to valet park at GF for dinner at Citricos. Is this a bad assumption?

3) Is there any chance of them doing the "July 4th Fireworks" on days other than the 3rd and 4th? (Like the Limited Time Magic of 2013?)
