Hi all...well our trip is planned! Yippeee! As I have not been to WDW in almost 20 years, I would love to hear your suggestions/ideas/advice on our trip! Here goes:

12/7 - Arrival Day: Check in at AoA FNFS
I figured we would just use this day to settle in and explore the resort..we r driving from NY so we will definitely need the time to relax and unwind...also I have heard AoA is so incredible that the kiddos (3&4) will probably think they r in MK!

12/8 - Our First Day: MK all the way....figuring we let the kids direct us through the park...no hurries, no worries...we have ADRs for Chef Mickey"s at 5:30...(would love ideas for a yummy CS lunch) After lunch back to AoA to rest before dinner...after dinner back in the park until Wishes....

12/9 - DDs Bday Celebration:
9:25 res for BBB...one Little Kinght and one Castle Package...followed by 12:00 res for CRT...after that we will either roam the park some more or go back to AoA for a rest...suggestions for a CS dinner?

12/10 - Hollywood Studios:
We have a 2:50 res at Mama Melrose with Fantasmic seating...not sure the kids will like this so we may skip out early...any suggestions for a late CS dinner?

12/11 - Animal Kingdom: we have ADRs for Tusker House for lunch but other than that we will just take our time exploring...any recommendations for CS dinner?

12/12 - Rest Day:
We have 5:30 ADRs at Whispering Canyon and tickets to MVMCP but before that we will just hang at AoA

12/13 - Epcot:
Teppan Edo for lunch other than that just general exploring..suggestions for CS dinner?

12/14 - Our Last Day and DS Bday celebration!
ADRs for Crystal Palace breakfast at 8:25..is this earl enough to get into the park early???
Explore MK for a bit and then back to the room for a rest around 11-12...
3:30 - Jr. Pirate League...
Any suggestions for a CS dinner?
8:45 - Pirates and Pals Voyage...
Bye bue WDW :(

Thanks for reading and for your advice/suggestions/input/info!!!
 
Sounds great. Following! We are going on our first trip in November as a family. It is a short and sweet one but I'm not complaining because I need to feel my 2 1/2 year old out before staying anywhere that long. Looking forward to reading all about your plans!
 
Thanks....I can't wait! We have taken the kids on a few shorter trips ...our longest was 5 days in Boston...hoping this works!
