How would you tweak this itinerary?
I've traveled to the World several times before, but it's my DH and children's first trip. For budget/crowd reasons we are going the second half of August. We are definitely going to need breaks, but not sure if those breaks will be better spent in restaurants or in the room/pool. I can see the heat affecting our hunger levels too. I also don't want to spend a bajillion dollars. If no breakfast listed we'll grab starbucks or eat bars in our room or hit up Roaring Forks.
Arrival - WL - no ADR but will either grab QS at Roaring Forks/GP or try to walk into WCC.
Day 1 - MK. We have prepaid CRT at 12:05 and have Tonys Town Square at 6:30. Our FPs are in the morning in FL so maybe we can get some evening FPs after dinner. The park is open until 10pm this night.
Day 2 - Ep - Dinner ADR at Biergarten around 6:00pm. Our FPs end at noon, so not sure if we'll grab QS in WS or head back to resort for QS lunch.
Day 3 - HS - We have a Homecomin' ADR at 6:00, but our SDD FP is at 2:00. Was hoping to rest at resort after HS, but that won't leave us a ton of time with travel. But maybe I'm overthinking it or we can uber/minnie van.
Day 4 AK - Tusker House ppo 8:00am and then Yak n Yeti at 7pm. Our last FP is at FOP at 1:45. Was hoping to go back to room since we'll be staying for ROL after dinner.
Day 5 Blizzard Beach/Resort - Might grab WCC sit down breakfast, but will otherwise get QS for lunch. We have a dinner Trails End ADR.
Day 6 MK again -This day I'm most concerned about. We have BBB reservations at 9:30 so we might be able to rope drop BTMR or Space and then head to the castle. We have 7DMT at 10:45 and then The Plaza at 12:05. Following lunch we have BTMR and Splash FP back to back. I'm not sure how long we'll last, but we have Narcoossees at 7pm. The park closes at 9:00pm, but we won't make it back. I'm worried we don't have enough MK time and will want to visit attractions at night. But I really want to eat at Narcoossees!
Day 7 This day is open, but right now we're planning on revisiting Epcot. I'm open to switching to AK or even MK if we don't see everything. Right now we have a 12:00 San Angel Inn and then 6:20 Artist Point at the resort.
Day 8/Departure - Breakfast at Kona Cafe
If you've read this much (and understood it!) you should get a medal! Basically help me decide if I should cancel/switch Narcoossees, Artist Point, or Homecomin!
