OK I am reposting my ADRs and our rough itin, let me know what you think...

Our flight (not booked yet) will arrive at MCO at around 2pm and we will take ME back to POP.
We plan to have snack at POP and maybe have a swim.
ADR at O'Hanas 5:45 and maybe a look around DTD afterwards

Tues Sept 11

We may taxi back to POP this night to avoid the crowds.

Wed Sept 12
Another later Breakfast then off to Typhoon Lagoon for the morning.
Back to POP for the crucial nap
Dinner at Chef Mickey's ADR 5pm (very excited about this meal for Noah)
Something after dinner. Epcot, DTD, Boardwalk...still working on this too, any suggestions?

Thurs Sept 13 (last day)
Breaky at POP
Epcot for opening stay till after lunch
POP/Nap
Back to Epcot for dinner Coral Reef ADR for 6pm
Illuminations 9pm
Also maybe take taxi back to POP.

Friday Sept 14
Leave directly from POP, due to flight times we probably won't have time to go anywhere

So the main change is that we are probably going to cancel the first ADR at O'hanas and just go to DTD for a sandwhich at EOS. We are worried that by the time we get to Pop we will be rushing around to make our 5:45 pm ADR. Also after a full day of travelling Noah might be at melting point and this way we can just relax and eat at Pop if need be.

The other concern is that our first Friday at Magic Kingdom is now a Little One's Extra Magic hour, so Fantasy land is opening at 8am for this. We will be eating our breakfast at CP then. I did make a back up CP and Breakfastosaurus ADR when I found out this may be happening (thanks TGM) so I can switch our park if need be. Meaning do MK on Sat and AK on Friday instead. We were just hoping to visit Fantasy land after our CP breakfast and with the LOEMH at 8am, I am worried that this area of the park will be in full swing by the time we are done. SHould I change? is MK bad on a Sat morning? Help!

Anyways let me know what you think...any recommendations are appreciated.

OK 19 to go now I think

I think it looks great. Having some sort of idea of what you want to do that day and room for flexibility is the best way to plan a trip.

Follow TGM recommendations. We have done this for our last 2 trips- and we were already veterans. He is exactly right with his information... If you are going in September during free dining, it mught be really crowded... TGM will help with this!

I think your plans look great! O'Hana's would be great, but if you think your going to be pressed for time, then EoS is a great alternative!

Avoid mk on satuday like the plague....not a good idea especially during the free dining period. You are going to have locals there, dining plan people + plus locals staying for a long weekend...MK on sat = bad.

See this is what I am worried about. Sat being a bad MK day. I am a Disney virgin but logic to me says that this would be the case, since it is a weekend day for locals and it is the Sat after the labour day weekend. But I am getting a different view from TGM. My only other option is to keep Friday as my MK day and then I worry that Fantasy land will be crowded due to it being open at 8am for the Little One's Extra Magic Hour and we won't be finished eating at CP until 9am when the rest of the park opens. Hmmmmm....maybe I could do the other areas of MK that morning and save Fantasy Land for the other day we planned to go to MK....but I really really wanted Noah to see it first. Darn it. I need to figure out what to do. Stupid LOEMH

Did anyone go to the LOEMH last year....was it busy? This is the second year for it.

Thanks to everyone for the input. It helps.
