I'm traveling with DH, DS (7.5), DD (just turned 5) and myself.

We will arrive Sat 5/23 landing at MCO round 3:30. ME to Yacht Club. We have 5 da PH passes (would add a 6th day If we needed to). Fly home 8 pm on the 28th. (So ME around 5 pm?)

Sat night - arrived check out hotel. Maybe do the campfire / movies on the beach, Boardwalk for dinner, try to see Illuminations or Symphony of the Stars from BC/YC area (is that possible?)

Sun 5/24 - EPCOT. Askerhus BF (1 TS) and Via Napoli dinner. (OOP) HS for Symphony of the Stars?
Mon 5/25 - AK. 1900 Park Fare dinner (1 TS) return to HS for Disney dance party during EMH.
Tues 5/26 - BF at chef Mickey's (1 TS). Dinner at BOG if we can get it? Stay through WISHES.
Wed 5/27 - HS. Jedi Mickey Dinner / Fantasmic package. (But maybe skip Fantasmic and see Illuminations if we haven't already? Try to head back early?) (2 TS)
Thurs 5/28 - maybe try for RD this day. Lunch at BOG. Magical express around 5 pm?

Our biggest interests will be seeing characters and shows, but I'm going to try for rides as well. Anna and Elsa and Rapunzel will be the princesses we really want to meet.

I also really, really want to build in pool time - since that is why we are staying at YC.

Thoughts? Advice? Recommendations? Changes? We have DDP.

Thanks! It's been 4 years since we were at WDW for more than one day.

Dance party is 10-12 pm.
Breakfast is at 11 am.

I should share - my family - esp. DH are not rope drop people on vacation. I'm going to do my best to NOT go commando, see what we can see - and just have as much fun as possible.

Smart plan, its really hard Im a recovering Commando girl. Breath, relax. and it took me 3 trips of non commando to relax. I do run away from DH and DD to do late night MK EMH for run to ride fun.
 

Can't really give an opinion as our upcoming trip will be our first in 14 years and the first with our kids but we are there for exactly the same dates as you so I'm interested to see what everyone says as I'm in the planning stages at the moment.
 
Can we plan to see any fireworks from outside the park? Wondering if we should try HS for Symphony of the Stars Sat night? Or just hop over there on Sunday?
