    3 MK Rope Drop Days

    Hi! I had my plans set, but then my parents decided to join us so I had to change some things around. They will be there for days 2 and 3. All three RD days are recommended days. MSEP and last day are not recommended, so it will be fillers mostly on those days.

    Can you take a look and let me know what you think? Am i being overly ambitious? I want a plan that doesn't have us running all over and is a nice, casual pace where we have some extra time to stop and grab a snack or see a character if the kids want.

    Day 1-
    TMRR (get swap), FPV Peter
    Ride Splash (get swap)
    Magic carpets of Aladdin
    Jungle Cruise
    10:15 Captain Jack Show
    POTC
    11:00 Move It Shake It Parade
    I don't think you'll make it to Move It. Tutorial runs 20 min and from my experience always get started a tad late- so done there 10:40? Pirates is going to take at least 20 min.
    if you skip JC this day-

    RD
    Ride BTMRR- FPV Peter
    Ride Splash- done 9:45??
    Ride Aladdin
    Ride Pirates and you might be done by 10:15.

    Also this part probably too tight

    12:00 The Plaza
    1ish- Carousel going to have some sort of wait
    Pooh
    Peter
    2:15? TMRR takes 15/20 min w/FP
    Splash
    Train to front need to be on train by 2ish to get a spot on Main for parade
    3:00 parade you missed it!
    Actually I have a question- have you ever been in FL between 1-3? Even with FPs- it's not a pretty sight. I realize you are trying to mix things up a bit but I think you'd do better to stick with FL first then work in FPs for the mountains in FRL

    Just something to try
    RD
    FP and Ride Peter
    Ride Pooh
    Ride Carousel
    9:30ish Ride BTMRR-get swap
    FPV Splash
    Aladdin
    10:15 Tutorial
    Pirates
    FPV JC
    11 Move it- I think this is your problem! Can this be on a diff day?
    11:20- ? Use JC FP if open?
    12 Plaza
    1ish Peter w/FP
    1:30ish BTMRR w/swap
    2ish Splash w/FP- still a bit late for parade- train stops running about 2:45

    Or skip the Peter FP and just go do the Splash and BTMRR rides after lunch- you really only have about 1.5 hours til getting a parade spot. Splash w/FP takes about 25 min, BTMRR takes 15/20 min w/FP/swap.

    If Move it can move to diff day- plan on 11:20 Tutorial and just enjoy all of FRL/AL this am

    RD
    FP and Ride BTMRR- sometimes they do not give out swaps this early in am
    Ride Splash- get swap
    FPV JC
    10:15? Aladdin
    Pirates
    Characters, Tree House, etc til
    11:20 Tutorial
    FPV Peter or Pooh?
    12 Plaza
    Use JC, Splash, BTMRR FPs/swaps
    Still leaves Peter/Pooh w/FP!

    Don't know if that helps but I do know Day 1 needs some adjustments ;)

    Thanks Christine! I haven't been to FL at that time - I will avoid it! I can do Move it at another time, so that can go. I have a better idea of the timing now, thanks!

    Any glarring errors on Day 2 or 3?

    It's nice having 3 rope drops, but tough figuring out which area on which day. I was trying to divide the three days between the three areas, but then things get all mixed up because I have to make sure the baby has things to do too, so we end up in FL at some point no matter what and I know the kids will want to ride the mountains several times!
