Wow what a trip. It looks like you are going to be very busy. I will give you a few hints on your schedule.

You have 1/2 day each for AK & MGM. I guess you can do that, but I would say you may want more than 4 hours per park. If you get to AK early you could get through everything in about 4-6 hours, but MGM in the afternoon will be busy. If you like rides, you will be in alot of lines and definately not be able to complete the whole park. Don't forget there are parades in both parks. It looks like the only one you may see is The Stars and Motor Cars parade @ 3:30 pm @ MGM. You will miss the Jamin' Jungle parade in AK which I think is the best parade.

You also have 1/2 day each for MK and Epcot???? I know you are going to MK for MNSSHP which can get you though all the rides that night, but you will be missing all of the daily shows and parades that do not happen during the party. Now only 1/2 day for Epcot. I need 2 full days for Epcot. FW takes most of a day and then WS takes me more than a full day to go through and do not forget Illuminations @ 9:00 pm.

You are going to US & IOA for 2 days. I get through both parks in just about 1 day and that is including doing all the rides and the Barney & Nickelodean Slime Time kids shows. We tried it for 2 days last year and spent most of our time on the second day in Universal's City Walk hanging out @ Jimmy Buffetts.

Sea World and Busch Gardens are 1 day each.

Have fun on your trip! It looks like yo need a vacation when you get home,:lol: and welcome to the boards. :wave:

Thats some trip you've got planned, but I think it needs a little tweaking. I can't see you doing MK & EPCOT on the same day. So my suggestion would be to do MK on the 20th and spend the entire day in the park, you can still relax on the 21st and do EPCOT for a full day on the 24th.
Have a great trip

Well we have been before and weve seen all the parades and stuff so we are really not that bothered about the parades (Got them all on tape).
And on our Epcot/Mk day we are probs just going to go to Mk to do what we missed on the halloween night and then straight to epcot.
When we went to universal last year we didnt even manage to do it all in THREE days lol (It was walk on too) But then we like to do the same things over and over. ( I like going on the water rides Over and Over lol )
And of course the mumms open this time so

So do you know what time we can get in for the halloween night ???
