So last week I decided instead of going to Vegas for my 21st birthday, I would take my niece on an early bday trip to WDW. In one week, our party has added one person (my mom...possibly 2 more!) and we've pretty much planned the entire trip.
May 8th
Leave on Amtrak train 1:30 AM. I know some people HATE the train, but I've taken it several times before. It's nice not to drive. Cheaper than flying. And it's part of the adventure. For the 3 of us it's only $230!
Arrive at Orlando station around 1pm.
Car service picks us up, stop by grocery store for snacks and breakfast
Check into Port Orleans Riverside/swim if weather permits/lounge around
8:30 reservations at Wolfgang Puck Cafe
May 9th
Early wake up/breakfast in room
MGM for morning
Back to hotel for lunch/nap for niece
Head out to Epcot to take a look at the different countries
Back to hotel to change (if needed)
6:15 dinner reservations at Hollywood & Vine
look around MGM/take picture while waiting for Fantasmic
8:30 line up for seating at Fantastimic (part of pkg)
