Plan for first rides - help please!!

[Dduckmom]

We are traveling to DLR on a Friday and Saturday at the beginning of August. We will be arriving later in the day on Friday so plan to tour late afternoon/evening. We then plan on being at rope drop for DCA on Sat am. It is my understanding that there are no early entry hours on Sat morning at DCA. We really want to to Toy Story, Soarin' and RSR. My initial plan was to go straight to TSMM to ride that first and then over to RSR for fast passes and then over to Soarin' for FP. Does this sound right? Will I make it to RSR for FP before they run out on a busy Saturday? Or should I get the FP first and then head straight to TSMM? ANy thoughts/feedback would be great!!!

I would get the rsr fps 1st, those just go so fast. If your group has little kids or slow folks, send one person to get the fp & everybody else to toy story, that way no one can slow you down & they'll be there waiting for you or can even get in line if it starts backing up.

Conventional wisdom (which I agree with) is if you plan to only ride RSR once then do TSMM first (and maybe second also ) and then FP RSR roughly 30-45 minutes after park opening. Yes EMH/MM will be at DL that day if they follow the pattern for the last two years which is highly probable.
