park order - EMH effect

[lcp9]

We will be there Wednesday through Saturday, and this whole time I've been planning to start at the following parks:

Wed - DCA because we have WOC seating at 8:15
Thurs - DL because we have MM from 8-9
Fri - probably DL because we have BBB reservations for my daughter at 10:45
Sat - either/or, but we have Minnie breakfast reservations at 7am

I just realized Wed/Fri are EMH at DCA. Technically if I had to, I could switch the character breakfast and do magic morning Saturday morning, and start at rope drop at DCA on Thursday...this would be PURELY to avoid EMH.

So my question is, is it worth it? I like the breakfast at 7 on Saturday to avoid losing early park hours with food, but if it's that big a deal I could switch everything.
thoughts? thanks!

I don't think it's that big of a deal. I mean, ideally you'd start in the opposite park, but given the plans and reservations you have, I don't think I'd bother changing everything, personally. DCA is generally less crowded immediately following EMH than DL is immediately following MM, for what that's worth, meaning it's less of an issue on the DCA side...

Generally I would agree with Skyegirl, you will see lines already for RSR, TSM, and Soarin though.

I would try to have at least one day in each park where you're entering at opening and not fighting crowds already there.

thank you! I've looked at what I planned and I don't think it's that big a deal to change - I actually made two reservations for Plaza Inn on Saturday, 7:10 and 10:40...I have seen mentioned a couple of times that with later breakfasts the characters are rushed and you don't get as many? That would be my only concern.

We have done 10:30 and not felt rushed. YMMV, of course.

An early MM (Sat. 7am) is a great time for rides. Lots of folks don't want to get up that early so it is generally less crowded than the later MMs. 10am at Plaza Inn works fine, plenty of characters and food. At around that time you will be ready for a break!

We have done a late morning breakfast at Minnie and Friends and we didn't feel rushed at all.
