Making ADRs on Monday - what do you think?

[PenguinWaiters]

My 180 day window opens on Monday and I actually have made some decisions about dining! (FWIW when we went in Feb 2001 I made all ADRs the day-of as I entered the park and we were fine. Just two of us then though )

Anyway, this trip is a bit more complex. DH, DD-2, DMIL, DFIL, DNephew-16 and I will all be going Feb 3-7. DH, DD and I will stay until Feb 11th.

I want to make ADRs for the days that we are ALL there as we will be a bit of a big group. Here is what I have decided. Do you think these will work for our diverse group and do you have any other suggestions? DFIL will balk at changing parks just to eat, I am sure of it - so I made ADRs based on where we will be.

Since DH, DD and I will be there a few more days by ourselves, I wanted to pick places to eat that will be fun for the big group, and save others - like Norway Princess breakfast for later in the week.

Sat - arrival day - dinner ADR at WCC

Sun - MGM -lunch ADR - 50s Prime Time

Mon - AK -breakfast ADR - Donald's Breakfasaurous

Tues - MK - breakfast ADR - CRT (just DH, DD, DMIL and I)

Tues - MK - dinner ADR - Crystal Palace

Wed - they leave, not sure what time. If we have time for breakfast, where should be go? DH, DD and I are planning a trip to FW in the afternoon/evening on this day. Not sure yet if we will do HDDR - thoughts?

Let me know what you think. Any I should add/subtract? Any others that all might enjoy that I missed? Thanks!

Have chosen well and your family is in for some great dining.

I would strongly suggest you do Hoop de Doo for your whole party. The food is very good (not gourmet/great, but very good), and extremely entertaining for the whole family. It is one of Disney's special experiences where all ages can truly have a blast.

Personally, I'd switch HDDR to the last night before they leave and then do CP the following night. I can't imagine your in laws being *that* upset about missing CP; my guess is that they would love HDDR, and it's a great way to end their trip.

HTH,
