We start our vacation on a Princess cruise (DH's family 13 people total). 7 days Caribbean.

So I need Disney time after that!

We always try to do something new ('Ohana breakfast this time). And I always plan a surprise for my family (EPCOT Dessert with Illuminations party) on each trip.

This trip will be special because we are adding someone to the family trip. My DD (21)'s boyfriend. He likes WDW and is totally excited about the trip. His favorite ride is Peter Pan. And I have a sneaking suspicion that he will be my son in law soon. He's been asking me questions about fireworks and castle...

We have a 2 bedroom at Old Key West. DH and I are in the main bedroom. The girls DD 21 and 12 in the other. BF 26 is couch city.

Dinners:
Cinderella Royal Table - we've done this a few times but he has never eaten in the castle
Mama Melrose - Fantasmic dining package
Coral Reef - Just for the aquarium
'Ohana - Breakfast

The only fastpasses we are missing are Toy Story Midway and Test Track. This is because of the tier rules. DD 12 is FINALLY riding roller coasters and we would rather do RnR than TSM. This also makes us 5 instead of 4 for all rides. It will be so weird - we have certain rides where we like to sit with a certain family member. Little Ninja DD12 will be a bit jealous of not sitting with her sister so much.

We're going to try go turn our early-day at Animal Kingdom where we will wave to the Yeti that can't wave back into another DHS day and see if we can fastpass TSM there. Same with EPCOT - after we use up our fastpasses, we hope to fastpass TT.

Now to a question: DD21 and DDBF 26 will want to spend some evening time on their own, any advice for the 20+ crowd at DTD?

Splitsville bowling at DTD. Even though there are no clubs (PI), it's still fun to drink and walk around DTD and watch the live entertainment. The didjeridoo guy is cool and there are also live bands at the front porch at House Of Blues and other live entertainment throughout DTD. I'm sure they can find something to get into.

There's also the entertainment at the Boardwalk and live entertainment at Jellyrolls and the Atlantic Dance hall at the boardwalk as well. They would like that too.

I second Jellyrolls! It is a riot!

If they want to just have some private time, a long walk around Fort Wilderness Campground is a lot of fun. We love wandering around seeing the big RVs and going to see the big Belgian and Clydesdale horses in the barn. And grabbing a beer from Crocketts tavern and rocking on the porch is fun too. I know that you may think that's for old people, but my DH and I started this tradition on our first trip when I was 23 and he was 25. We always take the boat from MK to the campground, which is very romantic.

Fireworks from the Poly beach is fun too!

I just found out about the Harambe Nights celebrating the Lion King will be happening while I'm there.

So I just added that to our first night there.

I had to. It's a Lion King thing.

So excited.

So do I cancel Illuminations cruise, thinking that this may be the day I may acquire a future son-in-law or let it ride?

HELP?!?!?!?

I would ask your soon to be SIL what day his plans are before you cancel anything!

They have their own reservations at France as a couple. He's asked me about the "Wishes" fireworks because they're her "favorite". The night we have CRT reservations, there are 2 Wishes shows and EMH till 2 AM at MK.
