Our first day, we are checking in at ASMovie Resort and then heading to Mouse Memories in Kissimmee (DW and DD are avid scrapbookers, it took DW 2 years to complete her scrapbook...)

and then to DtD to do the bulk of our shopping, including picking up lanyards for the start of my DD & my pin collection.

Day2 - Magic Kingdom, to do BBB for my DD (the whole package, but she is not sure if she wants to do Tink, Pocahontas, or Jasmine... since it's going to be hot out) before the park opens and then it's off to Cinderella's Castle for breakfast with the Princesses. This is our first time doing the dining package believe it or not, and then we are going to the GF (GF Cafe) for dinner (love that the monorail stops there).

Day 3 - EMH (late) @ Typhoon Lagoon (never been there, but did BB twice!). I am really curious to see how the water park is at night. - Not sure which park we'll hit during the day.

Day 4 - EMH (late) @ MK again, so we'll see where this day takes us. Dinner Reservations @ Chef Mickey's*

Day 5 - EMH (early) @ AK - can't wait to go on Mount Everest again and EMH (late) @ Hollywood to see Fantasmic (never saw it , but I can't wait!)

Day 6 - EMH (early) @ Epcot (my favorite park, but my DD's worst favorite) so off to Soarin and TestTrack early (maybe even twice!) and lunch reservations at Teppan Edo (one of my favorites). Couldn't believe Le Cellier (sp?) was booked 6 months ago , but maybe we'll get lucky for dinner.

Day 7 - our flight doesn't leave until 9:30pm, so maybe we'll go nuts and hit all four parks in 1 day.

* I miss the Old Chef Mickey's in DtD (where Rainforest is currently) = best prime rib I've ever had (on our honeymoon no less).

For being off-site so often, we discovered the benefits of EMHs! Now we are trying the Dining Plan (still have 1 table service left = maybe Big River Grille & Brewery, since they don't take reservations).

Comments welcome!
How old is your DD? Since you haven't been since 06, Epcot has changed! They now have characters at all the countries, so the kids can relate. Like Mulan in China, Belle in France, etc. Epcot has become my DD8s FAVORITE park!
