    Overwhelmed

    That was going to be my other go-to spot. I have heard a spot on the main street facing the castle cannot be beat. I have read how people camp out those spots over 2 hours before a parade though. Not certain if I want to do that since our time in the parks are limited as is, unless we are super...

    Overwhelmed

    I agree I would rather over estimate than under estimate myself. My son hasn't watched Lilo and Stitch or Alice in the Wonderland, I figured I would get him to watch whichever of those we would go to, to get him hyped for it. I know Mickey is an all-time favorite of his so I will stick with...

    I love the novel! Lot of great points. Chef Mickey's is definitely going to be my son's favorite breakfast so I didn't want to do it first. He doesn't LOVE princessces (other than Merida) but he likes them and will be enthralled to meet them. I asked him if he wanted to meet them and he said yes...

    They both have 7:30am reservations available. Is travel time really that big of a factor? I figured by car it wouldn't be. If we were depending on the Disney's express/monorail it could be.

    I like to be early too, so figured on 20 min as well, so that's what we'll attempt to do. I thought having a reservation meant we showed up and got seated, granted we arrived 15 min prior or 15 min after the reservation time, what is the line we would be waiting in for? If it's for people...

    Overwhelmed

    Ohana has super early reservations as well 7:30AM, and that one has such awesome reviews. Since we have our own transportation, that should be a safe bet. To be at ropedrop, how early does one need to be at the park? 20 min prior to park opening time or...?

    Overwhelmed

    AHA! I KNEW I wasn't the only one! I have 2 spreadsheets. One at work, one at home that I keep sending via email back and forth lol. I am one of those people that definitely belives in "stop, breathe and take it all in". I agree 100% that we definitely have to make time for those moments, in...

    @ RememberWhen: I had heard about the Barber shop a while ago they do something like a first haircut or something and heard that it would be awesome and wanted to do it but completely forgot about it till now. Thank you for the reminder. Also looked into the Epcot kidstop passport thing and it...

    Overwhelmed

    The way I had seen it the "must-sees" were the huge things (fantasmic, osborne spectacle etc things that 90% of first-timers would enjoy and be awed by), but I understand what you guys are saying in that for a 5 yr-old his "must-sees" will be a lot of attractions versus events that I consider...

    Overwhelmed

    The first time I called Disney to reserve a resort reservation, they asked me if I had been to WDW, I said "no, but I have been to your Walt Disneyland". The Disney rep paused and said "Ma'am with all due respect that's not even close to the same. To give you an idea, all of Disneyland can be...

    Overwhelmed

    We will be first timers visiting WDW from Dec 12-Dec 16 this 2013 year. Will be staying on-site at the Pop Century Resort and we will also have a minivan/suv rental. After doing months of research and tweaking I have finally settled on a semi-flexible itinerary. But every time I feel like I am...
