I am always awake by 2.30 and end up lying until about 3.30. It takes me a few days to adjust but the rest of the family are fine. Some people just don't adjust their body clocks as easy as others I guess. You may find you are fine with time change and adjust easily.

We have also gone ihop and Walmart before rope drop in the past but these days we do sleep to a more reasonable hour. 6:30-7ish.
When the kids were little I can remember having everyone up and dressed at 4am!

I rarely get to bed for more than an hour or two the night before travel (usually leaving for airport by 4-5am), so tend to snooze on the plane. As a result go to bed around 10, but happily sleep through until 8 ish as need to catch up on sleep.
As we don’t spend much time in parks these days, first day is always a take it easy day for us.

Same for me, been most years since 1993 and I’m always up and raring to go by 5am the first 2 or 3 days. My main problem is finding somewhere for breakfast at 5.30am 😱😂

I make the most of it because by about 4pm i’m fit for nothing and my day is done. Early dinner, watch the Weather Channel for a while then bed.

I always wake at 5 or 6 every time we go. Whether I go to bed at 9pm or 11pm! Even if you go to bed earlier at 9pm it’s still 2am UK time! So you still sleep for 8 hrs but it’s just really early when you wake US time. Next day I sleep like normal. You feel so much more refreshed after the first nights sleep.

I love Jeopardy, and Wheel of Fortune. After they’ve finished at 8 I’ll have an hour of Weather and then bed !💤

Yes they are always back to back aren't they? Not sure what Vanna adds to Wheel though just walking along the words. I'm sure that they'd display without her touching them.

Can't watch Jeopardy though without recalling Jamie Lee Curtis on Ellen's Adventure.
