What to plan for after CRT PS at 8:15?

[Sandy Feet]

Wed: Arrive, Grocery shop, Pool, Sleep.

Thur: Magic Kingdom

Fri: 8:15 PS at CRT, then???

We'll have to leave our condo at 7:30am I reckon, to be in time for our PS. Please correct me if you think we'll need more time. So this will be an early start to our day and we - especially the kids- will fade out mid-afternoon and need a rest. So what should we plan to do after the breakfast before our afternoon break? Stay at MK or move to another park?

I'm STILL waiting for the UF book to arrive which will help with in the park touring ideas, but need help planning which park on what day.

Confused: Since we're staying off-property should we avoid early entry days?

Thanks for your help

I would stay at the magic kingdom, the place will be empty since very few people will be there yet. When we had PS at CRT at 8:15 it felt like we had the park to ourself. we did every ride in fantasyland in about an hour and that was Dumbo twice. My 5 yo DS was sick by the time we got off the tea cups ( our last ride). You can always leave around noon when u get tired. I now plan a day at the Magic Kingdom starting with an early PS.

Thanks jeanneg4of4,

It would make sense to stay in MK. Maybe I should plan to do a different park on our first day so we don't do MK two days in a row. Which wouldn't be a problem for me, but might be for our boys.

How long is the breakfast?

I believe that thursday is an early entry day for the Magic Kingdom and if u r staying off site u may not want to go that day. As for how long the breakfast lasted, I cant remember for sure but It wasn't long they bring your food out right away and the princess were there as soon as we sat down. They come around as u eat and we saw them all before we were done eating. We spent the most time waiting in line down stairs to take a picture with the fairygodmother. I would say we were done slightly befor the park opened. Hope u have a GREAT time.

It takes at least 2 days to see all of MK. So if you did go on Thurs, you will still have lots to do on Fri after breakfast. On your first day you could skip most of the Fantasyland attractions and focus on the rest of the park. Then after PS at CRT you should be able to completely cover Fantasyland. It is ususally more manageable early in the day.

Good Luck.
