    Hi Doug! Thanks so much for the suggestions! We'll do our table service meals for dinner. We have a 5 day park pass so we'll do one day for resort/downtown Disney. Also what's your opinion about fantasmic show and Epcot princess dinner? Thanks

    Patti,

    I like Restaurant Akershus. I think it gets progressively better during the day, so I prefer dinner. But really it is more about the experience than the food. When comparing it to Cinderella's Royal Table, it is typically less expensive, I feel it is a bit more interactive with the princesses, and sometimes they have a few princesses that you don't find anywhere else, though that is not guaranteed.

    The Fantasmic! show is great, if it were not for the painfully long wait. I have never been wowed by the Fantasmic Dinner Plan, as the seating is not that much of a perk, and dining times always seem far too early in the day. I would prefer to go to dinner at 50s Prime Time Cafe and then bite the bullet and wait in line. Just be prepared with things to keep the kids occupied.

    By the way, did you think about a date night out? I really love the Child Activity Centers for kids in your (and my) age ranges. They really love the atmosphere, and you can get a nice night out for the adults.

    Anything else I can help with?

    Have a magical vacation!
