Staying at POR Aug 5 - 19; myself, DW, DD16, DS8, DS5.
We don't like to park hop, and tend to avoid EMH. Little ones can't stay up for the pm ones, and we'd rather sleep in a bit and have the lower crowds than get up for the am ones.
Because of F! and Star Wars fireworks/light show, we scheduled 2 days in HS (assuming Star Wars show continues in Aug).
Because of Avatar and RoL (wishful thinking?) we scheduled 2 days in AK
Because of tiered FP, we scheduled 2 days in EP
That leaves 4 days for MK.
This breakdown also allows us to take HS and AK slowly, and see all the animals at AK, and all shows at HS. Also should give us time for Agent P and truly exploring WS at EP.
I scheduled things trying to follow crowd calendars best I could, and also not having early morning following a night time show. Also, used water park/DQ days as "relaxing" days distributed throughout trip.
Anyone have suggested changes/improvements? I'm wondering, also, if I should move AK from day after arrival to later in the week, in case FP for Avatar are already gone by then (if it is open). I am going to AK again on 8th day after arrival, and it seems I should be ok then. But, maybe they will impose a 1 Avatar FP per day limit? If they did this, I'd want an Avatar FP for each AK day, suggesting I not schedule AK close to arrival day.
I'm probably way over thinking this. But, here's what I have. Times are my planned arrival and departure times from the park, not park hours. Shows listed are the ones I plan to attending.
Please leave feedback! Thanks.
