Then the night of the 22nd might be a good time to do a F! dining package (HB, BB, or RBT -- all have good viewing) -- that would give you a very good view of a very fun show. And the first show would allow you to stay in your viewing section to view the fireworks from the ROA, too. That would take a lot of pressure off your schedule for the next day.
Be aware that characters in the parks are different at DLR -- no FPs needed and more spontaneity (often roaming without handlers). So have your camera/phone ready just in case your daughter sees a character she wants to meet or a character meets her (!). When the magic happens this way, it can be super special.
We did meet a few characters (the only ones we bothered to wait more than ten minutes for were Jack and Sally, and that’s only because she adores them). The characters spend a lot more time here with the kids than they do in WDW.
It was crowded at both parks but it wasn’t as crowded as the World gets at this time of year. It was like Epcot Food and Wine on some random weekend with an unpopular band playing crowded.
We actually skipped all the nighttime shows and focused on rides. We rode almost everything with Maxpass and several rides without it.
Thanks for all the tips everyone !
