    Taking trip next January with 4 year old. I want to do mornings in MK, return to POFQ for naps (about 1-4) then back to MK at night for character dining at 5:00. Is this too ambitious? I don't want to wear her out with the bus trip back and forth. Thanks!

    Hi,Trudi! I like your style. You have the beginnings of a touring plans master, my young padawan. To play it safe, I'd make your character dinner reservation just a touch later (say 5:45 p.m.?) to give yourself a little cushion - you know, in the event you take longer at the park in the morning, you just miss a bus, your daughter takes a marathon nap (totally normal at Disney World,) you go out of your way for a good cup of coffee, etc. You get the idea.

    Worse case scenario is that by making your dining reservation a touch later, you're running ahead of schedule.

    Plus, if you're not rushing to your next commitment, your daughter won't feel worn out and rushed on the journey to and fro.
