25 days to go! Some minor tweaks to the plan. WDW FINALLY announced the real hours for MK, which includes being open until 11 PM on our 2nd Saturday of the trip. We had plans to eat at Artists Point that night, but had a 7:45 PM ADR, which would prevent going to the park. I suggested to DW we move that up to 5:45 PM, which would allow us to head to the park for a few hours after dinner if we want.
2nd we decided to change our Friday (23rd) ADR at Be Our Guest. The plan had fallen away to go to MK at all that day, and in the end we didn't feel like going to the park just for the one meal, so we instead moved in to eating at Tusker House, which is a place we love but haven't been to in ages.
I don't think anything else is going to change, but I wouldn't have guessed those things. So, here's a quick review of the final plans, or at least what we have booked, direct from my trip spreadsheet.

On the August Trip side of things - we are moving the trip back to the original dates of August 25th to September 2nd. This is because for whatever reason the DVC resorts seem to be booking up the week before that prior to 7 months, and by moving to August 25th, I was able to get our first priority of Beach Club! For now, I've booked the whole week at Beach Club, but have yet to decide if we are going to spend the first 4 days or the last 4 days there. DD is very excited to stay here with her friend, and we will never complain about the walk to Epcot!
