Phew... think I have a schedule.. let me know what you think!

[jraymond503]

We are going in early Nov this year with my husband, myself, and children will be 6,4, and 2.

A little about us..... we are not gourmet by any means, as long as the food is decnt we're usually pretty happy, the kids love to be entertained and the more for them at meals the better. I don't think the characters will scare them at all and my DH and I usually like sit down meals vs CS.

We will be doing DxDP.....

Days are subject to change order based on schedule when it comes out....

Please let me know what you think, advice, if you would change anything, etc. Thanks!

I would look at Tusker House for lunch on your first AK day instead of CS. It is good and if you book between 1-2pm you get a ticket for reserved seating at nemo.

Oooohhhh, didn't know that, GOOD IDEA! Do you get the tickets automatically or will I have to ask for them?

This is why I LOOOOOOVE these boards!!

I'm just curious why you chose two days at Animal Kingdom? That's not one people usually need two days at, especially with young kids.

I love AK and can easily spend 2 days there....

I'm not a fan of Chef Mickey's....but alot of people love it, so it'll probably be fine for you (everytime I've been there it's been overly crowded, dirty and loud and we felt rushed with the characters).
Love Tusker House breakfast!! BrownDerby is yummy!
My only comment is that 3 sit down meals on DHS day is going to leave you feeling uncomfortably full!! But you can cancel one of them if it's later on in your trip and you find you already have too much food with the 2 sit downs!

I personally have never been to AK, DH has many times and it's based on his recommendation as to which other park we should do 2 days at....

We'll see how it goes

Our DHS day we are using snack credits for breakfast so it will be a light morning meal....

EPCOT is the only day we have 3 sit downs planned.... I am sure same theory applies LOL! Guess we'll see how hungry we get! DH and I tend to be big eaters so...

I personally would skip rainforest cafe since you are getting the deluxe dining plan and it isn't included but that's just me.

Yeah, I know, but my DD REALLY wants to eat there and I've used all 18 meal credits even with the OOP dinnr since we are doing Spirit of Aloha and Brown Derby (2 credits each)...

I think you just ask at the podium when you check in. We loved Tusker House for lunch, we ate there twice in September.
