Planning Help Needed!!! MNSSHP and MGM Questions

[Pammy_from_WI]

Hi Everyone,

Well I thought I had everything wrapped up and my MIL and her sister decided to join us and so I'm scrambling around trying to get everything set!

BUT I've got two glitches to the planning I had. We will be there from Oct 1 to Oct 9, but they are leaving on the 5th which is a Sunday. I had planned on doing an off day and hitting TL or BB, but because of their time frame I'm now tossing about MGM on Sun instead of Mon and then doing TL or BB on Mon instead of Sun.

So it would look like this, not doing early mornings, just too hard with the range of ages we have, plus we like to sleep in. Let me know if I can work something different into the plans or if this looks ok.

Wed Oct 1 - Arrive, Epcot until 8pm, Illuminations Cruise.
Thurs Oct 2 - AK day, rest, Epcot night
Friday Oct 3 - MK day, rest, MK MNSSHP
Sat. Oct. 4 - Epcot day, rest, MK night (only night for Spectro)
Sun Oct 5 - MGM day, rest, MGM night
Mon Oct 6 - Waterpark and rest day
Tues Oct 7 - Epcot, rest, Epcot
Wed Oct 8 - MK, rest, MK
Thurs Oct 9 - Leave

So basically I'm only flip flopping MGM and Waterpark day. So my question is how bad will MGM, crowdwise, be on a Sunday?

The other question is about MNSSHP, we had PS for LTT, but they can't get us a setting for 6 instead of 4, so they will either eat by themselves at a CS or we all will. I already asked if CP will be open and they said nope. So what CS places are open the night of the party?

Last question for now... If we are in MK and do not have dining plans anymore will we be asked to leave between 6 and 7 or can we eat someplace or ride rides?

Thanks in advance!!!
Pam

Hey, Pammy_from_Wilderness_Island,

The MGM/Waterpark is actually better, I believe. I've heard that the water parks are much worse on weekends due to locals. And since Sunday isn't an EMH for MGM, you're A-OK! FAB!

As to MNSSHP, if you don't have a PS, but do have a MNSSHP ticket, they usher you to Fantasyland ASAP. I'm told the rides in FL are running during this time and you can do a lot of them during the changeover time.

I just noticed our trips overlap - DW and I will be there 10/1 - 10/8. Where ya guys staying? If you see a tall bearded fellow with Lime Green Mouse heads all over him - run, it's me!

Thanks for the reply Dr_Tomorrow_ex_Cheesehead!

That's what I was hoping to hear about the waterpark/MGM issue.

And I could think of worse things then being held hostage in FL, unless we were stuck for an hour on IASW. LOL Now I'm just wondering what to do about dinner!

Still looking to find out what CS are open during the party.

We are all staying at the AKL, first time there, so I really hope we like it.

LOL Lime Green Mouseheads huh? I'm trying to decide if I want to go to the party as a lime green DIS ribbon.
