Of course Mike Pence will not take the oath of office as Vice President until Donald Trump has taken the oath as President, so he will not be the acting President during the interval.>>> VP goes first just to avoid this situation.

Its been 16 years since I have watched an inauguration, but I believe you are correct. But the interval is still there until one of them takes the oath.
