Usually ours is like this (we go in August):
6am me-wake up, shower, dh wakes and showers and the kids are up by 6:30 ish. We all eat breakfast in the room with stuff we purchased outside of the bubble. I fill up ice in our thermos containers add water, kids pack them (they are old enough to carry their drinks now) .
7-7:15 we leave our room and head to whatever park is opening at 8. If there is no park that opens early that day then we leave a little later.
12ish have lunch at park and then leave. Siemens times we say eat earlier and do one or two more rides as we walk out.
1ish back to room via monorail or boat most of the time, occasional bus. And we would nap. Now I can swim since I figured it out...every other day is a park.
4ish if the nappers are still asleep, wake them, shower and return to park (usually MK or Epcot for us.
5-6 find dinner somewhere as we are walking, sometimes QS at the resort.
Stay til park closing.
For us, that $100 park ticket (not $300), means no sit downs on park days. We only do 2-3 sit downs per trip anyways. But the price of a nap/rest is vital to us and makes everyone, even the adults much happier.
I am just thinking of how tired my feet were in August as I have plantar faciatis. On our mid day break, I hopped in SAB and my feet and the sand=heaven.
Yeah you've got the system down, can't wait for my kids to be older so I can do the same.
- Staying within Boat/Monorail distance is fantastic.
- Kids being old enough to make it to park close opens up a lot of possibilities with mid-day breaks.
- $300 ticket is for a family of three for a single day. That's where the number came from.
