Running The Half, Dis Meets, Deluxe Dining,& SSR! BACK. Had a great time!

Lynn, so nice to see a new TR! I just read the beginning of this and realized that you and Tim have been together since you were 16. My DH and I started seeing each other at 15 and we have been together 20 years. We are both Disney fans, too and could never be sick of it!

Good luck in school...it is well worth it and above all, keep a good attitude about it!

Hi!! Aww that is so nice to hear!! Good for you guys!

Yeah I know it is so worth it. What took me so long to do it? I love my good attitude towards school :)

Yeah you've started your pre-trip report.

I have a question you mentioned a new Segway tour..... Can you tell me more. :)

Hey! I don't know much, I have to find the thread I found on here about it. I heard that you do the segway tour, then you do a little bit of the behind the seeds tour, and something else. Once I get more info I will post about it :)

Hi Rachel! Yeah it's crazy lol. Girl I hope I can eat all that food lol. I doubt it, I can never finish my meals lol.

Oh of course I will have a new vera!! HAHA!!!!


Ok guys when I get back from school, a little after 12, I'm going to post where we plan on eating! YUMpopcorn::
 
Can't wait to see where you are planning on eating. I'm sure it will make me want to change some of my ADRs for our September trip. But after the ADR drama I had (I still need to update my PTR) I don't think I will be making any changes. :eek:
 


Goodness Lynn!! You started this yesterday and you have FOUR pages!! I started in April and I only have 6 lol...I think you'll pass me by tomorrow! Oh well!! How are things? I would love to start running but I never have time plus the baby...and I hear jogging strollers can mess up your form? I don't know lol...maybe one day!! So glad you started though!! Can't wait to hear about all the places you're going to try to get ADRs for! When do you get to make them?
 
Hi!!! Hi Rachel! Yeah it's crazy lol. Girl I hope I can eat all that food lol. I doubt it, I can never finish my meals lol.

Oh of course I will have a new vera!! HAHA!!!!

heyy... I can never finish my whole meals either.. I do giver tho!!:lmao:

Well I hope you'll be posting about your new vera and I just wanted to say that congrats on going to school.. you should be so proud of yourself. Once you've earned your diploma/degree it's something that nobody can take away from you.
 
Add me to the group! I thought about running the half marathon last January when my cousin did it (being a non-runner - this would require lots of training) - maybe 2011.
 
We will be there in January also! I just realized that I booked the weekend of the Marathon - maybe it will motivate me for next year! :)

Can't wait to here more about your upcoming trip!

Hey!!! Oh no, what happened? Sorry about the drama, ugh.

I'm here! Late but here! :rotfl: Can't wait to read all about your plans.

Hey!!! Did you start your TR yet?

Hey!! How are you? I'm great. I love the new picture you posted of Landon. So cute. Oh IDK about the strollers either. You would think it would mess your form up.

I think I get to make my ADRs in Oct. Can't wait.

heyy... I can never finish my whole meals either.. I do giver tho!!:lmao:

I pick when I eat. There are only a couple meals I can finish. You know what I have to stop doing before I eat..stop eating the bread lol.

Thanks Rach. I am very proud :) Oh I have to post a picture of my new bag that I'm using for school. It's a new pattern.

Add me to the group! I thought about running the half marathon last January when my cousin did it (being a non-runner - this would require lots of training) - maybe 2011.

Hey. You could definitely do 2011 if you start training now. You could even start next year.

We will be there in January also! I just realized that I booked the weekend of the Marathon - maybe it will motivate me for next year! :)

Can't wait to here more about your upcoming trip!

Hi. Where are you staying when you go? January is a nice time to go.

Thanks for reading.
 
I preordered tickets for it last night. We're going tuesday night at midnight!! WOO!! Can't wait. I hope they don't leave too much stuff out of the book. I can't stand that.

I know Jenny is going!! Anybody else?
 
:yay::yay::yay:

I read a review that said they kept a lot of the plot points from the book with the exception of a few. The only negative I've heard is that they don't focus on Harry finding out who the Half Blood Prince is that much.
 
We're going next Friday. I cannot wait!! :cool1:The trailer looks SO good. The sixth and seventh books are my favorite. I don't know what I'm going to do when I see the first part of the seventh one and then have to wait for the second part. I'm glad they decided to do two movies to make sure they don't leave a lot of stuff out from the seventh book. But man...that wait is going to kill me!!! I already feel like it's take F-O-R-E-V-E-R for the sixth movie to get here.
 
popcorn::Disney Diningpopcorn::

Because I am a crazy person who plans ahead all the time, I have my restaurants picked out already lol. I don't know what dates we will be doing yet, I have to wait for the park hours to come through. And because of the meet, I think we are all going to Ohana the night of the race, Ohana will most likely not be on our first night like we always do.

Breakfast​

Crystal Palace- Love the food here for breakfast. Minnie's puffed french toast is delicious lol. Bad for you, but very good.

Kona- Tonga Tonga Tonga TOAST!!!!!!! I have not had it from here yet. I have it delivered to my room when we stayed at the Poly, and at Captain Cooks. No matter where I get it, it tastes amazing. We have done dinner at Kona as well, it's so good. OOh and I want to get the juice they offer at Kona for breakfast.

1900 Park Fare- This is new for us! I think it wil be fun to dine with some different characters. Alice, The Mad Hatter, and Marry Poppins are there. Not sure if anybody else is.

I did not pick a lot of breakfast places because Tim is not a big breakfast eater:mad: HAHA if it was up to me, we would be eating it more than 3 times at a sit down restaurant.

Lunch​

Sci Fi- Love it to death here. Tim does as well. It is a must for him. I plan on going as soon as they open, at 11. It was so nice when we went that time in May. I'm definitely getting the BLT soup again, and my favorite dessert. It's some chocolate cake with warm peanut butter in the middle!!! YUM

Liberty Tree Tavern- This is new for us. The lunch menu looks really good. I think it will be a good place to try. The lunch menu looks better than the dinner menu to me. More variety I guess.

Yak & Yeti- New as well. I love reading reviews on Yak & Yeti. The place looks cool, and the food looks very good!!!

Biergarten- Must for us every trip

Coral Reef- We like the coral reef a lot. We want to go as early as possible. Last time we had dinner here it was a little loud, so I think if we go for an early lunch it will be a little more quiet.

Dinner​

One TS places

The Wave- Um yeah this is like one of my new favorite places to eat. So good

Ohana- Always a must

Chefs de France- LOVE it. I love the inside of the place, and love the food.

Tutto- My favorite pasta dish is there.

Garden Grill- Tim really wants to eat here because of Chip & Dale. I hope I like the food because most of it is stuff that I don't eat, but I think it is worth a try. I also think it's cool that the restaurant rotates.

Two TS places

Jiko- So sad I did not try this in May. What was I thinking canceling this one? lol I'm getting the filet with mac and cheese

Brown Derby- I love it there!! Tim loves the crab cake from there. I love the banana dessert, I forget the name of it, but it is good!!

Yachtsman- Can't wait to try it here. Tim was drooling reading the menu.

Narcoossees- I'm really looking forward to this meal. Tim want's to get the surf and turf.

Counter Service Meals​

Sunshine Seasons- A must. Not sure if we will do lunch or breakfast

Wolfgang Puck Express- This will be new for us

Earl of Sandwich- Love Earl!!

Pizza Planet- We love it there

Cosmic rays- love it

And we may make a stop at casey's corner.

We will have 18 snacks each, so that is going to be a lot of Dole Whips, Mickey Heads, and Raspberry Lemonade icees lol
 
Perfect timing!!!

I'm so glad you just updated your TR with dining, because I have a question for you.

I know you haven't done Deluxe Dining yet, but we are considering it for our trip in December because we would get to eat at so many Signature restaurants and only spend like $150 extra per person over what we would pay for the basic DDP.

Typically in WDW, we aren't huge eaters. We had the DDP in 07 when it still included the app, entree and dessert and just thought it was SO MUCH FOOD. But, for $100, even if we have to box up the dessert and eat it for breakfast and just skip it all together, it still seems like a good deal.

Do you think we should do it, or don't you? It'll be me, DH and DM and max we would have 2 reservations each day---early lunch and late dinner.

Wadda ya think? I need some expert advice. How did you and Tim decide to go with the DxDDP this time around??
