Hi all! I'm new to the DIS, so TIA for your help. :)

DH and I took DD (27 months) to WDW 11/03. We went with my ILs and stayed in a 2BR at OKW. It was fabulous, so we decided to buy a DVC resale. To make a long story short, the resale came with points we have to use before the end of March, so we're taking a last minute trip back to WDW in a couple weeks.

This time its just me, DH and DD (now 31 months) and we're staying in a 1BR at BWV for 5 nights. DH really wants to take a day and enjoy the resort and the pool which we have never done before on our previous visits. We also have some unused plus options from our leftover PHP from last time and were thinking of checking out one of the water parks.

Last time we did MK for 2 full days, 1/2 day at MGM (but did all we wanted), 1/2 day at AK (could have stayed longer for DD) and only got to Epcot for one evening. We are using the remainder of our PHP tickets from last time.

Our DD naps from about 2pm -4pm and needs to do this to keep everyone sane. :) We had good luck last time leaving the parks around 1:30 and having her back in the room by 2.

Here's my tentative plan:

Day 1: Flight arrives at 11:30. What to do? Was thinking of making a PS character dinner reservation outside the parks.

Day 2: Full day at MK

Day 3: AK until done and then ??

Day 4: TL or BB and then hang around resort after nap

Day 5: Epcot

Day 6: have a PS for Cape May Mickey breakfast and then we have to leave to catch our flight at 2

We skimped on Epcot last time and its mine and DH's fav and really want spend time there this time. DD really enjoys the shows at MGM, but not sure where to fit it in. I can't do a commando visit with a 2 year old!

TIA!
 
Have you thought about touring Epcot at night? That's what we do when staying at BWV. It's a beautiful walk to Epcot and then we dine at one of the countries and watch Illuminations, then stroll back to BWV. This works especially great on the AK and water park days.

The beauty of DVC is you know you'll be back soon, so the need to go commando is no longer there.

Have a great time. We'll be at BWV 3/27 - 4/3 celebrating my twin dds 10th b-day and enjoying Spring Break!
