Whelp, my fast pass window opened up Sunday. I'm glad I didn't wake up at 11:59pm Saturday evening, because it seemed the system didn't unlock me until 7:00 or 8:00am Sunday.
I got my fastpasses in, and aligned them to my dinner reservations, i.e., going to MK the day we had our Be our Guest reservation, etc etc.
Waking up this morning, I reviewed my plans and decided it wasn't to my liking. I stacked up time at Magic Kingdom too much during the beginning of our vacation, going there Friday, Sunday and Tuesday. I usually like to avoid MK over the weekend because the crowds seem to be larger. I opted to spread out my MK visit throughout the entire week and I think that will (hopefully) make a more enjoyable time
Other observations with fast passes.
HS doesn't have much, pickings are slim
Epcot has some nice rides, but fast pass makes you choose between soarin, test track, and the new frozen ride. I can see Disney putting limits for MK, but Epcot has so few new (or decent) rides, its a bummer.
My Disney experience should auto-load all members of your party, instead of needing to click select all every time - minor annoyance but I think most families tend to stay together for their fast passes.
Other then maybe some minor tweaks to my itinerary, I think my family and I are locked and loaded for our trip. My kids are getting older, yet the excitement doesn't seem to wane, they talk about the trip almost daily. Its going to be nice to get away and enjoy the warm FLA sun
