When to Ride Big Thunder Mountain?

[Frozen2014]

The reason I said we don't do Fantasyland as a rule is because we have no children with us (DH and I are retirement age and then some). Even if we enjoyed a couple of the things in that section, it wouldn't have been worth the crowd hassle in recent times. With the refurb, EVERYONE wants to hit F-land and it's just too much for us to mess with
Had we been able to do Mine Train this past time, we would have but only that. We've stood at one of the "entrances" to and from F-land a few times in the last few years and just didn't want to enter.
There are lots of rides there and if you have young children, it's the place to be. Just not for DH and myself.

Got it

And good to hear about CHH

Love this site. Everyone is so helpful...which is especially great for a first time Disney traveler.

So here is my revised plan. Let me know if any comments. Much appreciated.

MK Day 1
Big Thunder Mountain (both?)
Splash Mountain - FP, around 10:30am ...for both, or if DD not interested, she'll do Magic Carpet
Pirates of Caribbean
Jungle Cruise
Magic Carpet

Lunch at Columbia Harbour House

Peter Pan Flight- FP around 1:30pm
It's a Small World
Haunted Mansion (DS) / Enchanted Tales (DS) - FP for both around 3pm
Mickey's PhilarMagic - 3D show

BOG at 5:50pm
Electrical Parade
Wishes

MK Day 2

Other side of MK...so rides like 7DMT, A&E, etc Dumbo in morning
BBB after lunch
Buzz Light, etc for afternoon

Looks great!

It's my kids' favorite ride only behind Expedition Everest and Indiana Jones the ride at DL (wish they had it at WDW!)

It truly feels like a disney ride.

Thank you all. Originally I had completely dismissed Splash Mountain for both kids and Big Thunder for DS9 only. Now after these posts, I have marked both for both kids (and if DD sees it and says she doesn't want to go, then one of us will take her elsewhere)
