Hello!
My husband and I are tentatively planning a long weekend trip in March so that we can attend a Braves/Red Sox spring training game. He's a Sox fan, I'm a Braves fan- and his parents, also huge Sox fans, have a winter place in Ft Myers, so they would come up to spend the game day with us- Saturday, March 22nd.
The general plan would be to stay offsite somewhere cheap, spend two days (Friday and Sunday) in the parks, getting a two-day hopper and trying to hit the highlights. Here's what I'm thinking:
Thursday: Work a half-day, drive down after lunch. Dinner on the road, check in and get to bed.
Friday: Rope drop at MK. Hopefully be able to hit Space Mtn, Buzz, BTMRR, Splash Mtn, Pirates, Haunted Mansion, and Philharmagic, along with a quick service lunch. Mid-afternoon hop to DHS for Tower of Terror, RnRC, Star Tours, Toy Story, maybe the Lights/Motors show and Fantasmic, along with a quick service dinner.
Saturday: Spend the day at WWoS with the in-laws, watching pre-game workouts and seeing the game. Dinner at the Wave, and then monorail to the Polynesian beach to watch Wishes.
Sunday: Rope drop at AK. Hopefully do Safari, Everest, Dinosaur, Nemo and the animal trails, along with a quick service lunch. Mid-afternoon hop to Epcot for Soarin, Mission: Space, Test Track, and various wandering, along with a quick service dinner and Illuminations.
Monday: Early breakfast at Boma, then drive home.
Are my expectations totally unreasonable? I know that FP+ may help me if it's working for offsite guests by that point- I'd use them all for the second park of the day. If it matters, we're young (30ish) and can move quickly.
Thanks!
