Booked our trip! 
Staying at the AKL from 11/28-12/3! We will be celebrating our wedding with this familymoon and DH's b-day.
We are keeping the resort a suprise for the kids! My DD has wanted to stay there since it opened. This will be our first time staying at a deluxe, too!
So much to do in so little time...
ADRs to place on 6/1.... hmmmm still don't really know what our park plans will be let alone where to eat. A little bummed that the Wishes Desert Party doesn't seam to be going past August... Would have been a nice surpise for DH on his b-day...
Kinda hard to plan ADRs when the park hours aren't posted for December yet either....
Park plan so far is:
Arrive on Sunday morning, early check-in, store luggage til room is ready. Check out AKL and if warm enough swim. At 3pm check the room out, change and head over to HS for dinner and EMH.
Monday: EMH at AK. Leave in the afternoon for MK. Hopefully the Wishes Desert Party will be extended so we can do that. PM EMH at MK.
Tuesday: Epcot EMH in the AM. Epcot all day??
At this point it is all guesswork since park hours are not posted.
Wednesday: HS and maybe Boardwalk at night.
Thursday: AK in AM then head over to MK for the afternoon and evening MVMC.
Friday: Epcot and Downtown Disney or AK and Downtown or HS and Downtown which ever one we feel we would like to visit again.
Saturday: Checkout. Hold bags til ready to leave. Downtown Disney, then board late flight.
Some ADR ideas are Donald Safari Breakfast, 50's Prime Time or Sci-Fi Dine-in, Boma. We will probably do more QS than TS with the 2 year old.
Think it's too hectic? DS is 2 will be almost 3 when we are there. We plan to fit in naps back at hotel. Presently, his naps are late in the day and short, 1-2 hours. We have tried and tried to get him to sleep sooner than 2pm, but he will just lay in bed, talking and singing to himself.
DD will be 17 and will be just happy to be back at Disney and her fav hotel!
Thoughts? Any ideas or advice?
Thanks!
