Some questions for my upcoming trip!

First off, I just can't believe my day trip to MK is 2 weeks away! It's unreal Smile
Ok, so I have a few questions that I thought you Disney experts could help me out with regarding my trip:
1. Is there a way to get a current map and times guide before I go? I'd like to plan out my day a little.
2. Where is the best place to eat that's reasonably priced for vegetarians in MK? (I really don't want to have to survive on french fries all day...:/)
3. Where is the best place to find Peter Pan and Wendy?
4. Is Thunder Mountain still closed? (I went in Jan, and it was closed)
5. How bad do you think the crowds will be?
OK, I think that's it for now. Thank you guys!! clapping

1. You can print out maps online. As far as parade times etc... there are calendars which have show times etc check the disney web page
2. check Allears.net for their dining menus.
3. I'm not sure I rarely see them in the parks. My guess would be Fantasyland
4. I believe its still closed until June
5. I'd say minimal until Memorial day weekend... you should be good
I hope I helped biggrin

Disney is actually fairly Veggie friendly, vegan is harder you will not have to survive on french fries for any reason!

Check out AllEars.net's Guide to Vegetarian dining in the parks. These are the counter service restaurants. If you're at a table service, all have vegetarian options, and if you don't see something you like, just ask your server to speak with the chef and they will be more than willing to help you!

I have found Peter Pan and Wendy in Adventureland near the gift shop by Pirates of the Caribbean. If you don't see them, ask a cast member in the area if they can still be found there.

I don't have your travel dates, but here's what the Crowd Calendar looks like from TouringPlans.com Green are least crowded parks, red are most crowded parks.
CrowdCal

Hope that helps you!

Yes I've heard that thunder mountain is still closed... And I saw Peter pan last year at magic kingdom... I've never seen Wendy before... I'll post a pic when I get home and see if we can figure out what area it was in

That was also going to be my next suggestion although I'm not sure if he added Peter pan after we saw him

Near Peter Pan's Flight or Between Mickey's Philharmagic and Tinker Bell's Fairy Treasures (Needs Confirmed on which or at all)

Here's the pic I took last November....I can't really tell from the pic where he's at and i don't remember....I just snapped the pic real fast cause I had never seen him before
