First of all let me say THANK YOU to the dis boards!!! I found this board when we fisrt started planning our trip and I have addicted ever since.
We got to do everything we wanted to due to all of your tips!! Now I will share some:
*If you have small children and plan on going to FantasyLand--go straight there first thing in the morning. We rode everything in Fl that we wanted to with little or now wait--on Friday our girls rode the teacups 4 or 5 times in a row!!
*If your kids love goofy be at Toontown when it opens at 10--Goofy takes the first ride of the day on the barnstormer rollercoaster and picks a kid to ride up front--all of our kids (6 in our group) rode the first ride and my 11 yr. old got to ride in front with Goofy
*If one park has EMH go to another park that evening!!
*Use Fastpasses!!!!! They are excellent!!
*Plan out your day the night before--we had already did all of the major planning--so each night my sis and I would sit down and jot down our first ride of the day and where our dh's would go to get our first fast pass of the day!!
*If your FP time is 10:15-11:15--you can get another fastpass at 10:20 even though you have not yet rode your first fastpass time
*We asked a CM--she said on crowded days Fp's were honored for up to 2 hours past your original time.
*Be nice-- the magic just seemed to follow us--standed in front of Tower of Terror--a wonderful CM came up to us and just started chatting--she then asked us if we had ever ridden ToT--we said no and she said come on--we went right up and she even rode with us!!!
*Late one evening we were taking the monorail back to MK from Epoct we started chatting with one of the host there and he invited us to ride in the front of the monorail--we got to see wishes from the front it was awesome!!
* the mister fans were wonderful, the kids loved them
*we thought our kids would need a double stroller (5 and 6 yr. old) but we did not mention it and neither did they!!! So stroller free!!!!
More tips later--or just keep reading these boards--not to plan our next trip
