Sounds good. The last 2 days just go back to your fav park, thats as long as you can still stand.
You'll never get to experience everything in one trip. So just enjoy as much as you can, like your plan.

Looks good!
The only thing I'd say is you may want to take the first day after arrival a little easier to factor in the jetlag etc especially as it's your first visit

Happy planning!

Im slowly thinking about our itinerary but ive got ages yet.

We have also got a day planned for Discovery Cove and 1 thing i will say is im not sure what to do about an eveing meal as im not sure we will really want one after the all inclusive day there. Not sure we would appreciate what Boma has to offer if we are already fairly full

Is there a reason you are spending so much time at non Disney parks? One of the great advantages of being on site is the convenience of being right there. You are spending more time at parks you will need to drive a half hour or more to.

I would concerntarate on Disney, do water parks there and save the rest for another trip.

If you haven’t bought tickets yet I would consider dropping the non disney parks and just do Disney and everything it has to offer.

Drop the car hire and drop the extra tickets. Disney has plenty to do and you can’t even do everything Disney offers in two weeks let alone adding in non Disney parks You can stick to your current plans but you won’t do nearly everything

You will still be jet lagged and waking up early on Fri 31st. I would be going to a park for rope drop, not Aquatica.

As others have said I'd consider Disney only unless you already have tickets. Then when u book the year after (which u will i guarentee! ) you can do the other parks.
That's one of the biggest advice i got told and wished I'd listened. That way this holiday will be cheaper as only Disney and the saving can go to the following year.

If not then one big thing i noticed is you have SeaWorld then Le Cellier for evening. That's going to be a drag. Try do Le Cellier on Epcot day. U need to try and plan meals around the park day or vice versa to minimise travelling as really drains you and could make grouchy kids.

Early on you will be up very early, so utilise that for any breakfasts you fancy and park openings. Blast the park am then back to pool to recharge.

Personlly i would utilise waterpark days as rest days and again make the most of the 2 Disney ones. U have aquatica on your 2nd full day there. I'd possibly delay that as u will be "fresh" plus wary of the sun all day in bathers. We get a few days of parks then relax at water parks to recharge then parks again.

It can be very stressful to plan esp with adrs.
We print out the meal restaurants then categorise must do ones, fancy that one, possible, not fussed etc. U get an idea then of possible park days around them.

U will love it whatever u do. U won't do it all but that's what keeps the excitement to go back.

And let your daughter dictate the pace. U don't want her tired and moody then not enjoying. Regular stops for cold drinks and 5 mins chill make all the difference.
