We got back on Saturday from our trip so I thought I'd write up what we did.
It was me, DH, DD4 and my MIL
We stayed at POFQ
Sunday
Arrived at 12:30 (room wasn't ready yet)
Ate lunch and headed to MK
Rode Dumbo, Carrousel, Mickey's Philomagic, Teacups, Peter Pan, Jungle Cruise, Liberty Boat, Haunted Mansion, Buzz Lightyear
Ate at Libery Tree Tavern - very good, first time using the dining plan...very easy
Left the park around 8:30. It started pouring while on the bus back to POFQ. We had to unload the car in the rain. I did have ponchos though so that helped some.
Monday
Went to Animal Kingdom at rope drop.
Rode the safari, Walked through the Pangani Trail, Everest, Primeval Whirl, Triceratop Spin (DD and MIL rode this while my DH and I wrote Everest), Dinorsaur, Visited the Boneyard, Saw Finding Nemo, Rode the train to Rafiki's Planet Watch.
Ate lunch at Pizzafari
Left the park around 2:30 went back to the resort, rested a little and then headed to our ADR at Chef Mickey's.
We met Mickey Mouse and had our picture taken with him. Didn't buy the package, the cast member took a picture with our camera. Food was good. It wasn't too loud, about the same as going to any restaurant with kids. Pluto, Goofy, Minnie Mouse, and Donald Duck came to our table. DD got pictures taken and autographs.
Tuesday
Got to EPCOT at ropedrop.
Rode Soarin', Test Track (2x), Living with the Land, Seas with Nemo, Spaceship Earth, Journey into the Imagination, Maelstrom, saw Turtle Talk with Crush.
Ate a late breakfast at Akershus. Food was good, especially the potato casserole. DD had her picture taken with Belle before being seated. Then Sleeping Beauty, Ariel, Snow White, and Cinderella came to our table for pictures and autographs. DD loved this. She is really into princess' right now. She wore her Ariel costume (Ariel is her favorite at the moment). Each Princess took her time at our table and talked to DD. Very good experience.
After we ate she got to see Jasmine and Sleeping Beauty and Belle again out in World Showcase.
We left around 2:00 and went back to our resort. Later that evening my MIL and I went to Downtown Disney
Wednesday
Went to HS at rope drop. Followed the crowd to TSM, rode it once and got FP for later.
Then we rode RR, ToT, Saw Beauty and the Beast Show, Little Mermaid Show, used our FP for TSM, saw Lights Motor Action show.
Had lunch at Backlot Express.
Went back to the resort at 1, maids were cleaning so we went to the food court and had Mickey Ice Cream Bars.
My DH and I went to Planet Hollywood to have dinner by ourselves. DD and MIL stayed at the resort to swim.
Thursday
Arrived at MK at rope drop. Saw the opening show.
Rode Teacups, Dumbo, Carrousel, Snow White, Winnie the Pooh, Barnstormer (3X), saw Minnie's House, Mickey's House, Saw Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, and Bella, rode the train, and hte people mover.
Ate at Cosmic Rays.
Went back to the resort. Maids had not been to our room. So we waited awhile and when they showed up we left and walked over to POR.
We went to 1900 Park Fair for dinner. Food was good. It wasn't our favorite buffet. The step-sisters are funny. We sat in a side room so we missed some by not being in the main dining area. Cinderella, Prince Charming, the step sisters and step mother visited our table. Overall, good experience.
After eating we went back to EPCOT because DD wanted to ride test track agian. We rode it twice and then DH and MIL rode Mission Space while DD and I went to buy a new autograph book. She filled her first one up because she thought it was necessary to get the princess' autographs each time she saw one.
Friday
Had at 8:05 ADR at Crystal Palace. MIL did not go, she was sick. This was the best buffet we had at Disney. Eyeore, Piglet, Winnie the Pooh, and Tigger came by our table to pictures and autographs. After eating DD got to pick what we did until it was time to leave. She choose, tea cups, Peter Pan, Snow White, and Magic Carpets of Aladdin. She also got to meet Tiana and Prince Naveen, and Ariel and Prince Eric. She was so excited to meet Prince Eric!
We left the park around 11:30, got back to our resort to finish packing and load up the car. I had requested a late check out at 1:00. Not sure if it wasn't passed on to the maids or what, but I gues they came around 3 times while my MIL was in there.
We had a very good trip. DD is ready to go back. Not sure when I can talk DH into going again. Too bad MIL got sick on the last day. Luckily she was able to make it to her house that was only 4 hours away. And luckily we made it home to Indiana before my DH and DD got sick. They were sick all day yesterday, a stomach virus probably. Just hoping I don't catch it!
I'll be happy to answer any questions anybody has. I spent a lot of time planning our trip and I thought it went well.
