Frist up, I think you're asking should you book ahead of time for the character meal? Yes. Yes. Yes. As a general rule, ALWAYS book ahead for your Disney character meals.

As for what to see -- make sure to walk by Haunted Mansion at night (oh so spooky!) and throught Tomorrowland (looks so neat at night). As for the fireworks (and parade, if it runs when you're there), Main Street USA is the traditional view. I prefer standing in the hub in front of the castle. Many people also go upstairs at the train station on Main Street.

You don't have a lot of time at WDW and there is a whole lot to see. The suggestions for the MK already made are good ones. Do take advantage of the extra magic hours. The fireworks show Wishes is a must see as well as the parade and the nighttime parade Spectromagic.

While it is pushing it a bit, I would go to Epcot or MGM one of the mornings. I don't know how much you like thrill rides, but there is Tower of Terror and Rock and Roller Coaster at MGM plus the Motor Stunt Show (you can miss that if you go to Disneyland Paris). Epcot has a lot as well including the new Soarin' and Mission Space. I also love Animal Kingdom, but don't see how you can fit that into this trip.

Do get a tour book and study up a little to make the most of your trip. Understand and use fastpasses and do make preferred seating (reservations) for specific meal locations.

Hopefully you will have more time in a future visit.
