I realised after I booked that its over Independence Day. Oops, it's going to be horrifically busy isn't it?

Any things I should change?

Friday 30th June - Epcot's fastpass tier system means you won't get a fastpass for both Soarin' and Test Track... one or the other I'm afraid!

Wow. I am just starting my planning for a holiday we are taking in October.
I am already feeling bogged down.. we went 7 years ago and didn't plan, I don't think we missed out, but this time we are only going for 10 days and we want to do Universal too . I think it must be a relief with a loose itinerary?
I hadn't realised how important it would be to book tables for dining so far in advance. I think this is what is stressing me out because it means I have to plan around eating?
Your plan looks busy but not bonkers 😃

thanks guys

You will probably be too tired to do illuminations on your first night

[duchy]

I'd swop the 2nd and 4th and I'd move Illuminations to the free day on the 4th instead of arrival day.
As it's a short trip you'll probably end up not wanting an entire down day so water park and shopping day would be enough. Shops will be open on the 4th anyway though.

I would agree that TL is a rest day so I don't think I would have another rest day the day after. I would do another park. I'd think I can rest at home and also I am not into shopping so I wouldn't want to spend long in the shops.

Whatever you decide to do hope you have an amazing holiday !
