Hey everyone! Well, as promised, here is my update.
After settling what I was hoping to do every day, I started making a back up plan in case I couldn't get the ADR's I wanted. I'm flexable on the times for most of my ADR's so I'm not super worried about it. The ones I am most worried about are Ohana on Sunday, 7/26, Rose & Crown on Monday night, 7/27 and the Fantasmic dinner package. I am not flexible on where I will eat, but I am on the times, so I hope that works out in my favor. My plan is just so perfect as is!
So, it was then brought to my attention that....gasp.. Flying Fish and Boma both don't offer lunch. These were two of my lunch places! This means I had to rework my itinerary a little bit. That being said, here is my final itinerary- I have a loose back up plan but I am praying to get my ADR's all on the right days atleast..
Day 1: arrival at 11:30 at MCO. Hoping to be at AKL by 1:00 at the latest, check in, then explore the resort for a bit..grab some lunch at AKL. Off to Epcot, ADR at the Coral Reef (dbf really wants to eat here) between 7-8. Back up is Le Cellier, back up for that is Germany..you get the picture!
Day 2: check out & in to AKL. Head off to AK for the morning, eat CS in the park or at the Mara. Unpack, maybe go swimming. ADR at Ohana, around 7:00. Will go earlier than that if needed. I WANT THIS ONE BAD! Wishes on the beach, 2nd spectro if showing/electrical water pagent, MK EMH
Day 3: Sleep in, breakfast on the Boardwalk around 10-10:30, off to Epcot again to explore the World Showcase, specifically. If we have time, we will do more rides. ADR- Germany 1:30, Rose & Crown 7:30-8:30 (illuminations).
Day 4: Epcot Rope drop (yes, again!). Lunch- CS somewhere, something light. Break at resort, back to DHS for either Fantasmic dinner package at Brown Derby at the latest possible seating time, or Dinner at Sci Fi. If we do Dinner at Sci Fi, we will try to get lunch reservations at Teppan Edo. If they serve lunch.. anyone know if they do?
Day 5: Sea world day! Leave resort around 8:00 for seaworld via mears transportation, stay there for the day, hopefully back around 6-7, reservations as late as possible at Raglan road- maybe 9-9:30
Day 6: sleep in! we are going to need it! Lunch at Le Cellier around 11:30, dinner at flying fish around 5:00. Hop to DHS, do rides during Fantasmic, etc etc.
Day 7: Back to AKL in the morning to finish up anything we missed. Hop to DHS, lunch at Brown Derby or Sci Fi, which ever one we didn't do before, and maybe do some rides- this is an EMH day and I really don't want to go on this day, but this is the only choice we have. Without saying too much, TGM and Unofficial have both voted against it on this day.... Rehersal dinner for wedding this night.
Day 8: Wedding day! possibly DTD or a park in the morning, or just hanging around the lodge. Boma breakfast around 10:00. We aren't sure on specifics of what time I will be needed at my friend's wedding, so this day is up for grabs. I want to try beaches and cream, so maybe we'll head there. who knows!
Day 9: Check out of AKL
Lunch ADR's at T-Rex, around noon. Some last minute shopping at DTD. Back to hotel for around 3:00.
well, that's the new and improved itinerary. I feel like I'm spending too much time at Epcot, but with all the places I want to eat, it's hard. Plus there is a lot to do there. I just really hope i can get everything in. Something is just not feeling right about my itinerary. I am thinking of starting from scratch and replanning. I think the things I am most nervous about is DHS on a EMH, and not getting in the things I want to do there.
Thanks for listening to me babble endlessly about my plans. Any suggestions would be so amazing..I'm so overwhelmed!
