[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would do Epcot on arrival day. Think you have a good plan. Do 1 park per day. Don't think you need parkhopper. Check out some resort meals and downtown disney. I would not do the meal plan unless it was free.[/quote]

I am thinking we will begin with Epcot when we arrive, do Magic Kingdom the 1st full day, then Animal Kingdom on the 2nd full day, and let our kid decide the 3rd day itinerary. I know if we stay on property at a cool resort he will want to take advantage of all of that stuff too, so not doing park hopper helps to alleviate the pressure to do it all (which we don't have to, and don't really want to).

I also think I will ditch the dining plan - thanks for this advice.

Epcot is a not a good one to do on arrival day if you want to go on Soarin and Test Track, which are many kids favorites.  Both have waits into 60-90minutes even during low periods.  Disney does not allow you to get fast passes for both.  And by the time you use your 3 up, all the extra fast passes for both rides are gone.  And honestly, they are two of the best rides in all 4 parks but I refuse to wait in mid-day or night time lines.

Magic Kingdom on the other hand has 3 fast passes to anything so you can get 3 good ones even if you aren't arriving until afternoon - and then there are still more to be had once you use up those 3.

And honestly, you will SEE Magic Kingdom when you are arriving at Wilderness Lodge.  It would suck to see it and not go there first when it is right next door and easiest to get to after a day of travel.  You will need at least 2 days there anyway.  [/quote]
