I was there for 8 days at Christmas and could have used 8 more!
Sounds great to me.There was some miscommunication between me and my wife. She was under the impression I was scheduling 8 days of park from 8 am to 10 PM. We both don't want water park as we do not feel they will enjoy enough + we have a season pass for a much bigger water park in Canada. We prefer resort pool.
Here is what our schedule looks like. Thoughts ? Remember I am traveling with a 3 (almost 4) and 5. I would guess I have incorporated enough resting period but I'm definitely open for suggestions.

We are maybe considering SeaWorld instead of a 8th Disney park day. But the cost would be 450$ vs 100$ for the 8th day at Disney. We are debating if the extra 350$ is worth it for SeaWorld vs perhaps using that money for gifts and such.We usually come down for 8 nights and do 9 park days. Some days are partial, and we will normally take a break for 3-4 hours at some point each day. My family will not go rope drop to close, but they are fine for several hours each day. Every time we have tried “off property” (Universal, Wikiwatchee, Cocoa Beach) excursions it has been less enjoyable than just staying at Disney and relaxing at the hotel for a few hours.
We love Sea World take a day to visit there every Disney trip but we go around Thanksgiving when they have special holiday shows at night on certain days. We don’t go on most of the rides tend to see shows and visit the animal areas. You would need to go on the website to see what they have and decide if it is worth it to you or just want to keep your schedule as is.We are maybe considering SeaWorld instead of a 8th Disney park day.

Anyone been to SeaWorld ? Thoughts ?
