Part 1 was basically just MK, and I’m fairly confident in that plan. This part of the plan is mostly for HS and I have to say that I am struggling. I cannot find a pattern in crowd movement other than “not crowded before official opening” and “crowded after official opening” Some rides go down in wait time after 2:00 and 3:00, but we are also trying to avoid crowds, not just waits. So, here it is, let me know what should be changed. It starts a littl unorthodox. My husband does not get Disney FOMO. He wants to make sure the kids get to do all they want. So he is dropping us off at the Speedway (or maybe on the other side of the street so we don’t have to cross- depends on if we can hit that light.) and then going to park the van himslef while we walk in ahead. Isn’t he the greatest 
We’re planning on getting to Speedway at 7:30. Hopefully it doesn’t take three kids and a mom longer tan 15 minutes to hoof it to temp check.
Dec 15: Hollywood Studios (Park Hours 9:00-7:00pm)
Arrive at Temp Check by 7:45 without Hubs. Order of attack-
MFSR for the two tweens to pilot (I know everyone says SDD first, but I really want to see SWGE with no people and get a few good pics in front of the Falcon with no people. We actually have to ride this one twice. Priority.)
SDD
Here is where I’m fuzzy- I don’t know if DH will be back with us by the time we are done with SDD. Should we just do other TSL rides until he meets back up with us?
Once DH rejoins, back over to MFSR because frankly the two of us passionately want to pilot the falcon. I’m hoping he joins us before that line gets too long.
RNR with rider swap
ToT if we can muster up our courage. I really want to ride it to see what it is like, but I hate drop rides. DD10 wants to “see inside” but not ride. Not a priority, but if we can and are feeling brave, it’s a maybe. I’ve never been brave enough yet.
Both ToT and RNR are expendable here because…
11:30 Hollywood and Vine Lunch ADR
12:30 Droid Depot reservation for the older two
1:30 we have two choices that I can see. We can get holiday treats from the park and hang out in the area near Launch Bay, people watching and eating treats- we bought a collapsible drink and snack carrier so that one parent can go get the snacks while the other sits somewhere with the kids. OR we could take the ferry to the Beaches and Cream walk up window and get a shake that my husband really wants to try- he probably deserves it after volunteering to drop us off early and park the car himself. I’m also not clear on what time to aim to be back in the park/actively trying to get into lines. I guess this depends on ROTR as well.
4:00??? TMM
Alien Saucers(it’s kind of important that we ride this after dark at least once. The kids think the holiday lighting looks like so much fun!)
MMRR, we are planning on riding this last.
I think it’s so wishy washy because even though it is a must-do park, there are not very many must-do attractions. The ones that are there are BIG must-dos though! It seems like there is the potential for a lot of time just milling around in crowds, which I don’t want. My plan needs help. TP says we’ll be done with everything by 2:00pm with no break and starting at 9:00…
After leaving HS, we will be riding around FtW in our golf cart to see how everyone has decorated their campsite! I’ve heard the decorations get elaborate.
Dec. 16: Resort day, check out of FtW and into CBR
8:00am Horseback Riding for me and the older two (I haven’t called to schedule, I’m hoping this timeslot is still available)
9:00-10:30: whatever the resort has to offer- canoeing? Basketball courts? Pool?
Check out and head to Chef Mickey
11:30 ADR Chef Mickey
12:30: I know our room won’t be ready at the CBR yet, but I’m hoping they’ll let us use the pool/parking earlier in the day. The pool and skyliner are the reasons we are staying here one night. We plan on swimming and doing a “skyliner crawl” while other guests are in the parks.
5:00pm Dinner at Banana Cabana
6:00 leave to go to Night of a Million Lights at Give Kids The World Village. We are so pumped about this! Our timeslot is at 7:00
Dec 17: Departure day
9:55 ADR Grand Floridian Cafe/ look at christmas decorations
11:00 (or whenever) Disney Springs to do the Christmas Tree Stroll, there are some shops my family wants to see, definitely the ganachery.
By 4:00pm we want to get some Chicken Guy to go (remember we are a party mostly made up of kids LOL, this is perfect for on the road dining) and head back to the chilly North.
Is there anything we should be doing differently? Anything we are expecting that we shouldn’t?
we had lots of fun on ASS at night. Walk on, too.
