So ... 4 days to go. Feeling :thumbsup2 :scared1: :cheer2: at the same time !!

Anyway ... at long last I have a itinery of what I think will enable us to get the most out of our stay - what do you think?

My DD7 wants to do BTM as one of the first rides and HSM as onhe of the first shows we see - hence the way i have tried to structure our trip.

As for the big corwd pullers such as ToT, Aerosmith and Space Mountain - well we are not so bothered about those (DH may go on them using FP where he can) but DD7 and I aren't bothered ! This should save us a huge amount of time queuing !
However - we may change our minds when we get there ! But isn't that the great thing about Disney !


Monday
Travel down to Ashford
Arrive at Travel Lodge 3pm.
Nip over to cinema and see Spiderwick Chronicles.
((DD7 has been asking to see this for a while so we thought this would be a great time to see the film - and allow us to arrive before the mad rush hour round the M25 starts !))
Have a bite to eat in one of the restaurants on the complex before going to bed earlish at around 8.30pm - 9pm.

Tuesday
4am - Up and get ready
4.45am - Arrive at EuroTunnel terminal
5.48am - Train leaves
7.30am ish (35mins + 1 hour for time diff) Arrive in France
Travel down to DLRP
Arrive DLRP. Check in to Hotel Cheyenne, drop off bags and get park tickets
Head over to park and straight to get a FP for BTMR
Spend time in Frontierland and going on BTMR

2.00pm Reserved meal at the Silver Spur Steakhouse.

Rest of afternoon in Frontierland and/or Adventureland.

16.15pm Head across to the Studios - spend time on a few rides (not ToT, Aeorsmith etc) plus ....

Although this means we miss the 5pm Once Upon a Dream Parade it does mean we get to see the HSM parade that my DD7 so desparetly wants to see ......

16.45pmCinemagique show

18.15pm HSM Parade (for DD7) !

8.00pm Candlebration back in main park (if we are to tired we may miss this and just head back to the Hotel or for a quick bite to eat at Annettes first)


Wednesday

A lie in this morning after our early start yesterday !

8.00amUp and out of the hotel for around 8.45am

9.30am - Character Breakfast at Cafe Mickey

12 noon to Train Station - afternoon / early evening in Paris
See/go up the Eiffel Tower
Go on a Bataux Mouche as well .. this should be a greatway for us all to see the sights without too much walking around.

8.30pm - Table booked at Billy Bobs Buffet


Thursday

Yikes an early start :scared1:

7.00am - Into breakfast as early as possible or book a GMF breakfast when we get to the hotel. (If we don't get an early slot we shall still go in early as from reading these boards they do not appearto mid that at all).

8.00am - At park ready for the EMH. Concentrating on Fantasyland - Dumbo, Carousel, Peter Pan, Teacups, Pinnochio etc to start with and then at around 9.00am (when I expect most visitors for EMH come into the park and head to Fantasyland) we will head into Discoveryland for Buzz and Orbitron.

9.45am - Head across to the Studios
Spend the mroning in the Studios plus see these shows

11.15am - Stunt Show

3.15pm - Animagique show (this may be seen earlier if we get on all the rides we want !)

4.00pm - Head back to main park

4.30pm - Table reserved at Walts - hope to get a table on 2nd floor and at the window so we cansee the .....

5.00pm - Once Upon a Dream Parade

Spend rest of day in park and see the

8.00pm - Candlebration.



Thursday

Up early again as yesterday - into Park for

8.00am - Use the EMH to hit the rides in Fantasyland and Discoverland.

Rest of the day in the main park - especially BTMR and PotC
Will most likely start in Fanstayland (with a FP for BTMR) and then move round each land getting FP as we can (will have already ridden Buzz in the EMH so that shouldn't be a problem if it is busy)

2.45pm - Tarzan Show
Or
3.15pm - Lion King Show

Then we can choose either
5.00pm - Once Upon a DReam Parade
or
5.15pm - HSM Parade

6.30pm Buffalo Bills Wild West Show


Satutrday

Last day !!:sad1:

Aim is to be up early agian and into park for the last EMH. But if we are all tired or don't want to do this, then no big problem :)

Last day will concentrate on doing our top fave rides in either park or any that we havent cobvered as yet.

12 noon - Character lunch at the Lucky Nugget.

2.45pm Tarzan Show
OR
3.15pm Lion King Show
(which ever we didn't see yesterday)

4.00pm Head home ....... boooooo

9.20pm Eurotunnel train leaves
 
You wont be able to get BTM FP until the park opens properly at 10.00. If you are in earlier than that for EMH you may want to do some other rides first.

You mentioned somewhere about doing Fantasyland and getting FP for BTM- Im not sure if thats a mistake but BTM is in Frontierland not Fantasyland
 

Sounds good :-)

Definitely recommend you fit Stitch Live! in somewhere - it was absolutely brilliant and the young kids there seemed to find it very believable.

EMH were amazing these past few days, though you can still queue up to 30 mins for Buzz.
 
Sounds great. The main thing is with 4 full days you'll have plenty of time to get most things done :goodvibes

Sorry Ive just re read your plans and realised you are arriving in France at 7.30am not at DLP
 
Thanks for th feedback all ...... has taken a while to get the plan together but I am fairly happy with it.

Will definately fit Stich in somewhere - just I do not know what times he is on at atm :)

Will also prolly see HSM as much as we can .... should be HSM1 and HSM2 but we aren't sure as yet when each it being shown ...

I should really be in bed now getting sleep in preparation for the big week - but I am too excited :)
 
Stitch is on pretty often - showings every 15 mins, with a couple each hour in English, so it's pretty easy to catch :-)

HSM 1 is only there from the 12th April, so luckily for you, you'll just catch it! There isn't any shows on 10th April of HSM 2 either, but at lea

Looked at the programme I picked up and here's the times:

HSM 1 (From 12th April) : 12.40, 13.40

HSM2 (7th and 8th April) : 17.15, 18.15

HSM2 (9th and 11th April) : 16.15, 17.15

HSM2 (From 12th April) : 16.15, 17.15, 18.15


Hope this helps :-)
