Hello all!
It has been a hot minute (2 years) since planning a WDW trip. Been focusing on DCL and Disneyland
My mom and I are doing a weekend Friday-Monday trip Dec 5-8. Staying at Pop. 1 park a day. She has never been to DisneyWorld or Disney anything for that matter. I know in our amount of time we cannot even begin to do everything so I am focusing on some big pieces- nighttime shows, and rides I know she will love.
However - my mom won't be able to match my usual park intensity. She won't rope drop most likely and we will need to take more breaks. Totally fine- I am just so excited to show her this thing I love.
With it being a while since I last went I have no used the updates LL system of booking 7 days in advance. I am familiar with LL in general.
Our first park day we are doing an evening in HS- probably get to the park around 4-5. I'd like to take her on MMRR and TSMM. Is it likely or not that I'll be able to book LL in advance for these in the evening?
Just in general what advice do you have for planning without rope drop? My mom won't ride anything with outdoor heights or super intense.
