I wouldn't do MK morning on Sunday. It's an ee day and since you're off site that day, I would do another park. I also think you have sone other days scheduled that are ee. Don't do it.

Yes, I was wondering how busy it would be the last week of August. Sunday is EE for MK, Wed for Epcot and Friday for AK so we may run into crowds for that. Ugg.. I hate to switch it all. How crowded do the EE parks get? I guess I could switch MGM to Sunday am and MK to Monday am.

That's exactly what I would do. Late August EE park shouldn't be too bad, but on Monday it will be much better (IMO). If it doesn't mess up your PSs and other plans too much, I would switch. Have a good time.

Thanks for your input. I switched Magic Kingdom (Sunday am) to Wednesday AM and Epcot to all day Sunday (24th). We may just do MK Wednesday night as well since it is open till 8:30pm as of now. This way we do not go a week before seeing MK again anyway AND we do not run into EE crowds at Epcot on Wed. either!
