My itinerary for first WDW trip

[gracie1]

So I have been planning this trip for about a year now. I have changed things so many times it is not even funny
I will be staying at the POP Century for 11 nights from 10/26-11/6. It will be just my mom and myself, and after much deciding we decided not to do the ddp. I am however, looking into doing the qs plan. Not sure yet.
The following are add ons that we are going to do while in wdw:
ADR's : CRT, Spirit of Aloha, 50's Prime Time, Plaza, O'hana breakfast
Also planning on doing: Dolphins in Depth Tour and going to see Cirque De Solei. As well as rent Sea Raycers at the Polynesian on day.

Do you think I am over planning to much?? I mean we have to eat a couple things and I just don't want to be tied down to too many adr's.

Oh, and we also have tickets to MNSSHP on 10/27.

Any input would be great!

I guess I should add if we were to go back to wdw it definately wouldn't be for many years, so I want to pack as much as I can into it!

Here are my thoughts.................
If grabbing a QS meal for dinner or heading off property for dinner is fine with you---skip the dining plan.

Only if it is really important to you to sit down at a variety of WDW places, would I deal with the "firmness" of locking in to a set schedule for that many days.

Sometimes you just get tired, sometimes the weather throws you a curve ball and the set in stone dinner time can mess up the natural progression of your day.

I am assuming you have a car. Kissimmee is just about a 10 minute drive from WDW.

If you don't have a car, then clearly its gonna be park food or something from Downtown Disney.

I don't really view this decision as a money issue, its a schedule/flexibility issue.

I hope I helped a little. Good luck!

Thanks for the info. We will not have a car. So it will only be cs except for the couple reservations I have listed. As for money....we don't have a lot! That is why we are sticking to cs so we can go to cirque de solei and those things. I have looked at the menus and all and wdw food is actually cheaper than where I live Imagine that! Thanks again for the advice
