Thats right, well be at WDW at Spring Break peak (April 5-11), because were gluttons for punishment. But we are not early risers by nature. Can we possibly do all we want to do without going commando? Well see
Im not saying were the type to sleep in till noon or even 900am. I just dont see us at morning EMHs or rope drops. Even when not on vacation, DS14 and I are night owls, so evening EMHs past midnight are right up our alley. DW likes her beauty sleep and considers it distasteful to wake as early during weekends or vacation as she does for work. DD9 could be an early-rising commando were it not for her layabout family.
Though weve been to WDW many times (this will be DDs 5th trip), this vacation will hold many new experiences. At 6 nights, it will be our longest stay at Disney; weve never done more than 4 consecutive nights. Weve also never been at the World without a car. Were used to room-only reservations since weve always arrived with leftover days on old park-hopper passes. This time, were going whole-hog MYW with dining and park-hoppers. My birthday falls on our last day at WDW.
Heres the preliminary plan, including TS ADRs. For the most part, Im picking parks to visit in daytime based on Touringplan.coms recommendations, but always hopping to the park with evening EMH.
Feedback and suggestions are most welcome.
Cheers,
Lee
