Looks like fun . I'm sure you'll have a great time. Would you be interested in the Fantasmic show which is on in Hollywood Studios in the evenings ? Also if you would be interested in the Spectromagic parade at MK ( it's different from the usual parade , usually happens around the fireworks time and isn't available every day ) then you mght want to check that your MK firework night falls on a Spectro night. Hope that makes sense:-0

Thanks, I'm sure I was thinking about doing the Fantasmic show on my HS evening - is that the one where you can eat at Hollywood and Vine and then have priority seating for the show?

DH is desparate to go to Planet Hollywood so we can switch and do that lunchtime when we are at HS for the day.

We're going in July and I think Spectromagic parade is on every day, but I will check.

Thanks

wow looks like real fun. I think both Thursdays might be a bit heavy for the twins though? You have three rest days which is GOOD. My DD when nearly 4 was terrified of the fireworks so be prepared for a hasty exit possibly!!

Thanks, I'll see how they do at the MK fireworks and then may change the Epcot evening for something more sedate!

I thought the second Thursday was almost another rest day, as we are only having an early morning half-hour airboat ride not too far from our hotel, and then spending the rest of the day at the pool.

Yes that's Fanatasmic. We have done it twice now with the Fantasmic dinner package and both times at Hollywood and Vine. We enjoyed the buffet, it's one of DH's favourites.Although I'm not sure the FDP seats give the best view I would think the dinner package would be really helpful in July as I expect it's quite busy and queues could be long otherwise. Sorry,you're absolutely right if you are going in July there will be a spectro every night. I'm really jealous I've been September, October and December and spectro has always been on relatively few nights. It can complicate other arrangements trying to fit round it :-(
