time for water parks???

[bridget8822]

With only 5 days and 4 nights, is it even possible to fit in Typhoon Lagoon or Blizzard Beach? If anyone has managed all 4 parks and 1 water park in this time frame, please let me know how!! Thanks!!

Some folks can combine AK in the morning followed by MGM in the afternoon with Fantasmic. That has worked for us in the past. We often leave the water parks by 3 so that might give you time to head to MGM or back to Epcot to catch the things you missed.

Well, I suppose if you did a park a day. For example, MK, MGM, Epcot, AK, then Typhoon Lagoon. Hope your not going during the busy months. You won't get to ride as many rides because you'll be standing in line alot of time. We did 7 full days in Disney from open to close still didn't see it all! But managed to exaust ourselves totally! I needed a vacation from vacation.
Good Luck and have fun and take your energy pill!

I took my elder son and GD in January for six days and we did only the main parks and DTD. I just returned May 22nd from a ten day solo trip and did the four main parks and DTD, again. I'm taking my other son and D-I-L to WDW in late Sept and they keep insisting they want to do all four main parks, both water parks, Disney Quest, PI, and go parasailing. At first my D-I-L refused to fly, but now says she will try. Anyway, if we can get her on a plane we will be arriving on Saturday morning and be leaving the next Saturday evening. I keep telling them there is no way we can do everything they want to do in the amount of time we will have.

My son keeps saying it won't be a problem and came up with the following itinerary:

Saturday (arrival day)
DTD
Disney Quest
PI

Sunday
MGM

Monday
Blizzard Beach-AM
Typhoon Lagoon-PM

Tuesday
AK

Wednesday
MK

Thursday
Epcot
Segway tour

Friday
Parasailing
Park Hop

Saturday
Park Hop-AM
Catch plane home

I can't imagine doing both water parks in one day! I would be exhausted!

Same goes for your first day- DQ takes a long time and so does shopping at DTD!

In 5 days I would suggest

Day 1 MK
Day 2 AK/MGM
Day 3 Epcot
Day 4 TL or BB/MGM
Day 5 fit in what you can before you leave

Epcot is an easy day to shorten if you don't want to hit WS this trip or see Illuminations. You can add something else in that night...or go later in the day and hit a place that opens early that morning. All depends on what you have your heart set on seeing and doing this trip. MGM can be done in 2 evenings...don't forget about EMH and use then to your advantage!
