This is my first draft for our planning of our first of 5 visits to WDW in 2013. Yes I am a horrible planner... and I did not even get my first ADR until today. But we visit a lot and the truth is I am happy by the pool as long as I am in Walt Disney World. :) WE have 4 kids 10,15,17,19 all of which are I am happy to say getting to come with us on this trip... :) WE are RESORT HOPPING (by choice) 3 times. Any POSTIVE impute is greatly appreciated.. :)

Day 1 Leave NC at 12:00 Midnight arrive at 8:00 A.M at the Boardwalk Villas-
Spend most of the day relaxing by the pool. Unpacking and picking up groceries for the week.
Evening at Epcot.. We will walk on over and find a CS to eat at. Looking for suggestions... :)
Day 2 Headed to Hollywood Studios. No ADRs Yet.. Still deciding if we will do a CS or not. Dinner at Beaches and Cream.. No after dinner plans yet.
Day 3 (This is where most people I know think my vacation planning is nuts!) We are going to switch Resorts and head to Saratoga Springs. Morning we will relax then head to Earl of Sandwich for a Late Lunch. Go over to Disney Quest for a little while.. then head to Magic Kingdom.

So far so good!! You're leaving yourself with lots of free time, which, with 4 kids is a good thing. As far as CS go at Epcot, our favs are UK's Yorkshire County Fish Shop (fish and chips), Mexico's La Cantina and Japan's Katsura Grill. France's Boulangerie Patisserie has some wonderful options as well. Later ADR's arent bad actually, you will miss alot of small children, and more around your children's ages. Push comes to shove and you arent sure where to go for dinner, ask the Concierge at your resort for suggestions and to call and see if there is any availability. :)
