What park on what day?

[millie0312]

hi everyone!
I'm starting to come up with a loose "touring" plan and could use your expert help!
So here's the senario:
-5 day park hoppers
-dec 5-14
-2 rest days and 1 day at kbf
-mid day naps with 2 kids (one can do all the rides, one cannot).

We would like to do each ride and show at least once (some like PTN twice maybe) but this is year 3 so if we miss something it's not the end of the world. We will have 1 MM at DL with our tickets (not onsite this year).

I'm so confused with the lack of info and the differences in schedule this year- id love some input on what park to do on what day (or at least to initially start at), what day to rest and what day would be best to do a breakfast at Minnie's (we'd like to do it super early like a MM we aren't using since last year we had a terrible experience going at 10 am but don't want to lose valuable early morning time).

Here's what the schedule is like:
Dec 5, Monday- travel to DLR
Dec 6, Tuesday- DLR 8-9 ee, 9-12
Dca- 9-9
Dec 7, Wednesday- DLR 9-12
Dca-10-9, 9 ee
Dec 8, Thursday-7-8 ee, 8-12
Dca 8-10
Dec 9, Friday-DLR 9-12, DCA 9-10, 8 EE
Dec 10, Saturday-DLR 8-12, 7-8 EE, DCA 8-10
Dec 11, Sunday-DLR 8-12, DCA 9-10, 8 EE
Dec 12, Monday-DLR 8-12, DCA 9-10, 8 EE
Dec 13, Tuesday-DLR 8-12, 7-8 EE, DCA 8-10
Dec 14, Wednesday- travel home

I'd love any input you have on later openings (were used to 7 EE) and not having EE into the parks! We plan on going to line up early but the late hours make me nervous for crowds lol TIA!!

Wednesday morning at Disneyland and Thursday is the best choice for early entry as most folks will be flying in that day so you don't have to bump against the weekend crowd, but you will still have to contend with the folks there all week. The problem with Tuesday ee is that folks tend to leave in the afternoon, and use that morning to visit on ee.

Thank you!! I'm not used to picking one day so I'm lost lol The park hours are longer on Thursday then Friday- should I be worried about more people at EE that day for any reason? Is a breakfast at Minnie's on Sat EE time a good choice? Any input on days to rest? Thanks!!
