We are planning our first trip to WDW since Wishes started and I'm VERY excited to see this show and to share it with my family - my problem is that after looking over my (carefully planned!) itinerary I just realized that the only night we'll see Wishes (inside the park) is the night we are doing MVMCP (11/30). I know that it's supposed to be "Wishes, with a holiday twist" according to what I've read, but I'm wondering will I regret it if we don't try to switch things around so we can see the "regular" version too?
Here's the plan as it stands right now - tell me if and how you would switch things around...

We have 5 day PH's by the way, but are trying to stay out of the parks until Sunday due to crowds.

Friday - arrive late, have 8:00 PS at WC

Saturday - day trip to the beach, maybe eat at TE when we get back if it works out.

Sunday - AK (have 10:00 a.m. b-fast at Donald's), evening open - may grab dinner and then try to go see Osbourne lights or possibly Illuminations in the evening.

Monday - Epcot (have 5:30 PS at GG and CP scheduled at 8:15)

Tuesday - Sleep in, 11:10 PS at 1900PF and then resort hop until we can get into MK for MVMCP (4:00 p.m. according to what I'm reading!)

Wednesday - sleep in again after late night party, and then may do TL (if wheather permits) or go to Gatorland (DS12 would LOVE this), then do a dinner show that night (Dixie Stampede).

Thursday - MGM have 4:00 p.m. PS for H&V fantasmic pkg.

Friday - MK (have 8:25 a.m. PS at CP and 7:15 p.m. PS at O'Hana)
I also just called on a whim and snagged the last boat for a Wishes cruise this night - which would mean changing the time on our O'hana PS, but I'm still mulling this whole thing over, because if I DO switch plans this would be the night I would have to do CP pkg...aaaaaak!

Satuday - departure day (no parks)

What do ya think - should I just leave it alone or would you make some changes in order to work in Wishes on a regular night (Spectro would just be a bonus, we saw it last time and I don't mind missing it this time if it doesn't fit).

I appreciate any thoughts or idea's you have - THANKS!

Sorry this is so long!

Wishes is the same during MVMCP except there is a bonus ending. I wouldn't schedule it again another night if you don't have time.
 
I don't want to give away the surprise, so I'll just say extra fireworks.
 

Thanks SO much for that info! It puts my mind at rest, and REALLY simplifies my life to know that! After so many months of planning I can't wait to see it all come to life!

Thanks again! Jamie
