We just did the mk extra magic evening hours. It was from 10-1 am. We waited till 11:30 because I figured all the little kids would be gone. So in 1 1/2 hours we did buzz lightyear, small world, mickey philharmagic and tommorrowland speed way. Also ds 13 did a quick ice cream stop. So you would have to figure out if you want to be early risers that gives you like 1 extra hour or burn the disney midnight oil and stay out late. Also it would be much cooler at night in the summer if its not storming and we were so surpised that they had characters out with hardly any lines, we didnt know and left the camera in the room. It was really dark, so I dont know how peoples picutes turn out, but they had minnie and mickey together by the castle. and fantasyland together. It was awesome to see. Also the castle was so beautiful with all the colors etc. Worth it to us.
