Sounds great to me. However, Splendid China is closed.

I notice you haven't planned a visit to Celebration - according to Mike Jones's reports it's worth a visit, so you could go there instead. I think we'll try to squeeze it in this year.

On the 4th of July you say you'll be in Kissimmee during the day, and MK for the fireworks at night.

This could be a problem, as MK will be jammed on that day, and they may well close their gates to new entrants during the day if it gets full to capacity.

I would avoid the parks like the plague on the 4th of July and go an chill by a pool and then go for a lovely meal.

Wish I was going in a few days

Have a great holiday and make sure you come back and tell us all about it.

Cheers

Craig

i have a theory that after a long day that some visitors may leave and that also some may leave for a meal in another restaurant?
and some may have younger children ?
if my theory is flawed i will stay in kisemee and enjoy the entertainment there as set out in flgirls description in a thread about the 4th july
