Our last trip was in Jan 2018 (our kids were 4 and 2. The then-2 year old doesn't remember any of it). Thankful we came when we did, our 4 year old got to do Bibbity Bobbity Boo makeover. Now the kids are 6 and 8. Haven't been anywhere in awhile (thanks Covid, closed border) including two cancelled trips to WDW. On a whim decided to drive down from British Columbia for spring break, March 19-26. Takes two days each way to drive. We will be in the parks on March 21, 22, 23 and 24. Yes, I know there won't be fireworks. Sucks but it is what it is. We are still booked to go to WDW in Nov/early Dec thru Dreams, so they can wait for then for fireworks.
We have 4 day park hoppers, and already bought Genie+. The kids want to do it all and have been watching lots of ride thru videos. We all have cabin fever after several years of no holidays. They are tall enough for everything. Haven't yet seen Galaxy's Edge (I know, I know....!) and of course not Avenger's Campus. Already spent a small fortune on the hoppers with genie+ so not too excited to do ILL if we can avoid it. We are morning people so good with rope dropping. Staying just outside the gates at Del Sol motel.
Only thing I know is we need to rope drop RSR probably 2x, ok with a couple longer-ish waits. Also know that I prefer to 'take in' Galaxy's Edge to see it first without seeing it for the first time as we rush in for rope dropping Rise. Kind of thinking day 1, rope drop RSR at DCA, then hop to DL and see GE for the first time. Besides that, totally unsure on best plan of attack for which park to book reservation at.
Ok with a rest back at the hotel mid day if the parks are open late? Curious how you pros would plan this trip if you were me. Kids don't seem super into characters all that much any more. I wouldn't mind one occasional sit down meals just for the sake of a break, but we're good with quick service for the most part. What would you plan if you were me?
