Our first (and only) WDW trip was 10 years ago, pre FP+ and during the 3rd week of March (low crowds) now we are going over Christmas with 2 kids (14 &8) instead of 1 and I am OVER it. I loved planning my previous trip, I read all the books, the blogs, the message boards back then, we had an awesome trip. Now everything contradicts each other, I am stressing about crowds and FP+ finally got dinning reservations set for most TS meals and I am likely going to have to change it all in 15days when our window opens. I can’t figure out a good strategy to decide which parks to be in and when. (Well aside from needing to be in certain parks for dining) my kids love rides and good food (steak and lobster and crab and shrimp are among their favs). This trip is a surprise from Santa (he will be handing them a letter when we go to see him to be opened in the car) we will spend 3 nights at USO first followed by 2 nights at our timeshare in Orlando (The Fountains) and then 8 nights at Disney(12/19-12/27) I feel so pressured to make this trip amazing as we are spending more than any other vacation we have ever taken and I want it to be ridiculously magical for them. (They are awesome kids who have been through the wringer lately)
All that said, I am stressed! I can’t take any more planning! I need help figuring out how to plot out the rest of this trip! I will attach pics of my itinerary so far... someone please help me figure out which parks to do which days? Which FP+ I should be choosing for each day? Any dining times I should try to change? (Hubby and Ds8 are not early risers but I really want to rope drop at least once, DD14 and I are happy to get up early!) I just need some guidance on what to do!
