This isn't too hectic is it?

I posted on the Adult board, but figured i might get more responses...

Is this hectic at all? I thought it seems ok...

Day 1- arrival, MGM (probably will arrive to park around 2PM)
Day 2-AK
Day 3-MK
Day 4-Epcot
Day 5-TL, PI
Day 6-IOA
Day 7-DQ for few hours, departure

On day 2,3,4 are EMH (evening) for those parks. We aren't really morning people.

Do you think we should do a park again on Day 5, and put TL and a park on the same day? A 5 day pass is $2 more dollars (we just have plus option, no hopping, expires).

Could we try to go to a water park on the same day as MK or Epcot?

I guess these will make the schedule more hectic? What do you think?

You don't say when you're going, but if you're in the summer, then you'll probably enjoy a full day at TL, rather than breaking that up by trying to do a park AND TL AND PI. That would be a hectic day. I wouldn't try to do a water park on the same day as MK or Epcot, but it really depends on whether you've got kids with you or not. It can be really hectic to drag everyone from one place to the next -- people forget how much time it really takes to get out of a park, to the parking lot (or onto transportation), and then to the next place. That eats up a lot of your day.

You may also want to think about DQ. "A couple of hours" before you depart might work, unless you're departing on a Saturday or Sunday. In that case, you won't get much done in a couple of hours, and you might want to skip it. Or, maybe do TL during the day, then have an early dinner, spend some time at DQ and THEN go on to PI. That way, you're rested from your day in the sun, you have a nice dinner, spend some time at Disney Quest, and walk over to Pleasure Island to finish off the night. Then on your departure day, you can sleep in or shop or do whatever, without having to try and squeeze in another venue.

Just a thought.

PI is only at night - maybe 10PM-2AM type of thing. We'd have to leave TL by about 5-6... I am not quite seeing how TL and PI is too much in one day. Although in your second paragraph you suggest doing TL, DQ and PI in the same day, so I'm a little confused. We are going mid-May. I figured it is about 80's and humid in Florida so water parks will be fine.

Read my post again. I said that if you were trying to do a park, TL and PI all in one day, that that would be very hectic. TL and PI in one day is no problem. As for TL, DQ and PI all in one day, that's easy, because DQ and PI are basically in the same place. You spend your day at TL, you leave around 4pm, and then you head to Downtown Disney. Have some dinner, spend a couple of hours at DQ, walk a few feet, go to PI at 10-ish, and stay until 2am. That works because everything is right there -- restaurant, DQ, PI.

I was asking about when you're going more to look at your schedule from a crowd standpoint.

Oh okay - sorry for the misunderstanding

We are going mid-May from Monday to sunday. Friday would be the day we are going to TL & PI.

We can't afford to stay very long so we have to cram it all in. DH must see IOA because that's the only reason he is going. He agreed not to complain while at Disney world. He really did not want to go but I've been bugging for a year. If we did all Disney he'd be pissed.
