Rope Drop Virgin

Rope drop is awesome! you can get so much done. I too take an afternoon break around noon....we go to the resort to nap or swim or both. Then head to another park around 4-5pm for the night.

Rope Drop for us means

MK = through everything in Fantasyland before lunch except use a FP+ for SDMT

AK = at least 4 or 5 times on Everest with no wait

EP = in the past - all rides in future world done by noon then enjoy world showcase -- we will see with three long line rides in tier 1 now!

HS = rode ToT and RnRC multiple times before lines build and FP+!the rest

Plus like others have said - enjoy the cooler weather and less congestion in the parks so you can notice some of the extras like CMs waving on Main Street, etc. I also love the soundtrack that plays as you enter MK in the morning - I haven't noticed it during other parts of the day!

It really is a nice feeling to be leaving a park around noon knowing you've gotten in a ton of rides without all the hassle and lines. We take a break, sometimes a nap, then head back around 3-4 and our evenings are more relaxed even if we go to a different park because we try to think of it as bonus time. Doing it that way works well for us.

What's this business about a break? Rope drop to good night kiss is the way to go!

I agree...however, if im going in August... Oh my goodness, I need a break. That heat is too much to handle. Last October however was lovely! I only took a break ONCE the whole trip!

While it is tempting to make the most out of being at Rope Drop by trying to hit as many attractions as you can early in the morning, if you go to WDW frequently (at least once per year), you may want to consider a relaxing start to your MK visit with a Rope Drop morning. Grab something for breakfast at Sleepy Hollow and sit at a table overlooking Cinderella Castle and watch the park wake up. Watch the Main Street Trolley venture from the castle area down the street and enjoy the quietness of the park like no other time of the day.

What great responses!! Thank you all so much. We will try it this time for sure but it will probably only be one or two of our days. Considering going to MK for a RD then going to AK afterward since that is our least chaotic park. The days I plan to go to MK are the emh days.
