Our Nov. Itinerary

[deanna2426]

Here is our planned November itinerary. We are staying at the Poly 11/5-13. It will be me (35), DH (39), DS1 (5) and DS2(22 months). Any advice or comments would be great.

Friday (11/5) - Arrive at Poly around 7pm. Dinner at O'hana.

Saturday (11/6) - EMH at MGM. Break in afternoon. Dinner at Chef Mickey. Watch Wishes and EWP from Poly.

Sunday (11/7) - EMH at MK. Late PS for breakfast at CP. Break in afternoon. Either DTD or Epcot in evening.

Monday (11/8) - sleep late. Epcot in afternoon and evening. Eat and drink around the world, masks, etc.

Tuesday (11/9) - AK in am. Either Epcot or DTD (whichever we didn't do on Sunday.

Wednesday (11/10) - sleep late. MGM in afternoon and evening. Catch Fantasmic.

Thursday (11/11) - EMH at MK. Epcot in evening.

Friday (11/12) - sleep late. MK in afternoon for parade and additional touring.

Saturday (11/13) - either MK or EMH at MGM.

During the afternoon breaks, I am hoping either DH or I will stay with DS(22 months) for naps while the other one takes DS(5) to the pool, Neverland Club or on Watermice. On the days we sleep in, we will enjoy the pool or watersports in am.

Thanks again for any comments.

We arrive the day you leave!!
I would think twice about MK on the last Sat. of your trip. Sat. is the busiest day at MK and most would advise against it. I didn't see a day with no parks? You might want to plan a day at the pool and then do DtD that night. Maybe it's just me but if I go to a park in the morning, then take a break, at night I usually want to get my "monies worth" on my hopper pass and go to another park. Maybe your last Sat. you could swim and do DtD. I also love doing Epcot on almost all the nights that I'm in a park. Since the other parks close early, Epcot is the perfect way to end the day. Also, I like your idea of watching WISHES and the EWP on the Poly beach. Great way to relax and miss the crowds!
Looks good, enjoy!!!

We arrive the day you leave and are staying at the Poly too! I am also in the process of planning our itinerary. It is certainly more difficult that it seems!!

If you are not an ABC Soap Opera Fan, you may want to reconsider your MGM visit on 11/13. That is the first day of Super Soap Weekend and all events are held in MGM. The park is mobbed, however, the lines for the rides are fairly short.

Everything sounds good to me - not to hectic. Is there any chance your 22month old would sleep in a stroller? That way you could all enjoy the pool while your toddler sleeps nearby. We've done that lots of times with success - but my dd will sleep anywhere and is used to noise.

Wow, Deanna, now you've got me worried! We're going to be at the Poly the same time as you, but we've hardly started our itinerary. Must...get...to...work...

We have decided on Ohana's for our first night, also, so maybe we'll see each other there. We'll be the loud family with all the kids

I agree with the previous poster about the last Saturday at MGM, unless you (or dh ) is a soap fan. I understand it gets quite crowded.

See you in November!

I love the "sleep late" portions of your trip. We do that too. After all it is vacation. We do not feel we have to do "commando".

We are arriving on the 6th. We are leaving the same day that you are. I have been doing some planning via TourguideMike. That last day we leave at noon so I am wondering what we should do that morning. I was thinking of going to MK too for the early AM since wea re staying very close to there. Your itinerary looks great! See you there!

We won't get there until Nov 20th. Your schedule looks great. Sounds like you shouldn't be too worn out. I guess I'll get started on mine towards the end of next month after I stop working and have more time.

Every thing you have planned sounds great! The only thing I would change which has been mentioned before is the Sat. MGM day, maybe swap that with the Tues. AK day. That way you would avoid the Super Soap thing at MGM. You are traveling at a great time of the year, crowds are manageable and the weather is usually great. Try to get your son used to sleeping in a stroller once in awhile that way you too can enjoy relaxing by the pool with your husband and other son. That was already mentioned and I thought it was a great idea! You may want to watch the hours on some parks since some will probably close early. especially MK and AK. I don't think EPCOT or MGM does but sometimes during the slower times MK closes at 6 or 7 and AK 5 or 6. Love how you are allowing yourself time to relax and enjoy!
