It's not a vacation if you have to wake up early, right?

Well, at Disney World, that's often not the case. I've got 5 reasons why you might want to consider waking up early during your trip.

I also have recent news, a featured company that will help decorate your MagicBands, and a quick tip of the day regarding parking near one of the theme parks.

These are notes from this episode. There's much more info included in the audio so be sure to listen to the episode for a better explanation.

5 reasons to wake up early at Disney World

* Early breakfast reservations, especially ones that take place in the parks. Episode 102 covered everything about how those work.

* All parks have something going on before park opening. Magic Kingdom has an opening show, and the other parks are allowing people into a portion of the park 30 minutes early.

* Mornings are less crowded and make touring easier.

* Easier to take pics with fewer people in them.

* Temps are much cooler in the morning that in the mid-day heat.
