Less than 1 week until the big call...
DH and I went by ourselves about 5 years ago...yeah, I know a different era...we LOVED Boma, Sci Fi and Crystal Palace (and we loved staying at AKL, which we are doing again)...This time there are 4 adults (the ILs, me, DH) and our DS (2 turning 3)...also, no park hoppers...we are not normally big breakfast people and I don't feel that is the best bang for my DDP buck (although I included one)...but maybe I am missing something?
Day 1 (travel, no parks) dinner at chef mickey's (already booked) 5:45 reservation
Day 2 (Epcot) Garden Grill dinner
Day 3 (AK) Donald Breakfast (we will probably pay out of pocket)
Day 4 (DHS) Playhouse Disney lunch at H &V
Day 5 (MK) Boma dinner
Day 6 (MK) Crystal Palace dinner (DS's 3rd b-day)
Day 7 (DHS, then travel) Sci Fi for lunch
Too many character dinners? DS doesn't eat anyhow at any restaurant or at home, so I thought it would be nice to have him distracted with Mickey while I ate
(and I don't have to pay for him anyhow) [We have been doing things around town with noise/characters/darkness lately-circus, aquarium with mascot, medieval times, etc.-and we have not had a melt down, so I hoping he enjoys Mickey] I basically booked every character meal I could except for princess and Lilo/Stitch b/c DS really only likes Mickey and the gang and watches Playhouse Disney
And any advice on times we should shot for to eat dinner most days (for travel late May/early June).
