Our little thread of BIG Resort Changes~2013 Spring RC installment

[Sue M]

Thanks everyone for the good wishes with the knee surgery. I'll prob be home most if June recovering, so I'll have plenty of time to keep everyone posted, and live vicariously thru everyone's vacays! .
Yes, Disney will be a great motivator!

I do plan on taking afternoon breaks, floating around SAB on my pool noodle . It will be August after all!

Marie I do have Diva trips to wdw. Girls only! My adult daughter comes, and I meet up with my L.A. Friend and sometimes another friend joins us.
I'd love to fit in a DL trip, one day. It's hard since I manage 2 trips a year to wdw. But one day I'm going to make it to DL
Sorry to hear Alan is having such a hard time.

It is way too early to be up and productive, but alas I am. Woke up after having fallen asleep on the couch last night. It was 4am! I'd be worse if I went back to sleep for an hour, so I threw in a load of laundry, started the dishwasher, put money in DS's lunch account, and am getting ready to book the rental car for our August trip.

Hope you all have a great morning!

Thanks for celebrating with me everyone!!!! Whooohoooo!!!

I am so ready for this trip. Of course, my little DD6 has come down with a nasty cold and my throat was hurting last night (but I think more from post-nasal drip or something)....always something.

My kids always seem to get sick the week before Disney...and other than that they NEVER get sick.

DD started showing signs of a cold and DH said "Oh! We must be going to Disney next week!"

I guess it's better that we get illness out of the way now, and then on to sunny Florida next week!!!!!

Just in case, some pixie dust for us to just magically clear up these colds would be much appreciated!

I'm going 10-27 to 11/2

I'm going to spend one late afternoon going booth to booth at F&W.

I want one dinner at BOG, California Grill, Flying Fish.

Breakfasts will either be Kona, The Wave, or just pastries here or there.

Arrival day is always lunch at Liberty Tree, it's sort of a tradition thing for me.

We went in 2006 during F&W and we didn't go to a single booth. I really wish we had though.

BOG is the meal I am looking forward to most on our trip. We did CG on our last trip and loved it!!

Hi everyone

It's been a long but good day. All things considered off course. I haven't even had a chance to start obsessing about my next Disney trip that is just about 300 days away, lol!

The kids had great days, I had a great therapy session (yes I finally put myself back into therapy) and my cousin called me today to say she and her partner are coming to Siesta Key with us this summer My mom and I have been bugging them to come but she in in the Air Force and the whole sequestration thing has been hanging over her head so she felt like she could not commit. But then end of last week she decided that she cant control the future and she is going to live her life and do what she wants. So they booked tickets. Then our cousin passed on Saturday and it kind of confirmed that she did the right thing She called me today while I was in car line and I was jumping up and down so much that I am sure the other cars were wondering what the hell was happening in my truck on school grounds

I have nothing planned tomorrow so I will be catching up with my RC family for sure

Hugs to everyone
Melissa

I'm sorry to hear about your cousin.

You have a great morning as well.

I hope everyone is feeling better before you leave. Maybe take some extra Vitamin C?

Well, I am just so tired. I didn't go to bed until about 3 AM and I had to be up at 7. I can't take my normal, "I didn't sleep well" nap this morning. I need to get a shower as soon as I get JM on the bus, so I can grab some lunch before my tutoring session today. Hopefully the two hour session will help enough that I will have my labs done before I leave class and I can go to bed as soon as I get home. Then again, considering a new expansion is available today (since we pre-ordered it), I don't think the DH will let me go to sleep as soon as I get home anyway.

Here's hoping they get over the colds soon!!

I thought my TA hadn't made my ADR changes yesterday like he said he would until I checked the silly Disney Experience app. There they all were! But then I noticed Le Cellier was still a lunch ADR instead of dinner. And Coral Reef was dinner that day (instead of lunch). Apparently the CM told him there weren't any dinner openings for the day I wanted at Le Cellier, but I checked online and there are openings at 7:20 and 7:45, so he'll call again today and get them switched. YEAH! No BOG dinner, but we'll do lunch there one day when we're at MK so it's all good.

Yay for your single digit dance!!!!

I hope everyone gets better soon! I remember we were all passing around all kinds of bugs for about a month before our cruise, and I was a nervous wreck. I was worried we would be denied boarding. Fortunately, we were all feeling better on a Wed, and we left Sat.

Thise sound really good! I have about a month before I can make mine for Nov. Not sure what I even want...I know I want to do BOG lunch and then a day of F&W booths, but other than that, I'm not sure what I want. Thinking of Garden Grove over in the Swan for something different.

 

[Janet B]

Hi Peeps!!

MM, here's some to make DD feel better!! and YEAH for SINGLE DIGITS!! some is in order!!

Koh, Did your TA got the ADR changed for Le Cellier?

Piglets Mommy, hoping you feel better too

Wookie, try to get some more sleep tonight...or if you can't have fun playing the new expansion.

peteykirch, we are looking forward to returning to CG as well, it's been a long while (2009) since I've been there. Loved BOG in January.

Sue, best wishes to you on the knee surgery!! (somehow I missed it before). Relaxing at SAB seems to be just what the doctor will order... does this mean a summer spent at WDW??

------------------------------------------------------------------

My DD Sam will be at the Phillies baseball game tonight performing with the 9th grade band (pre-game show). Hoping that this is aired on TV .. if not the school should have something on the website!!

janet Super kewl about Sam playing at the game!

 

[Janet B]

janet Super kewl about Sam playing at the game!

Thanks Sheila!! I sent her a text to have fun. We pick them up at 11:00 pm at the school, so then I can get all the scoop.

 

[Koh1977]

Janet - very cool about Sam playing at the game!

And yes, my TA got the Le Cellier ADR switched! Just need to get Sea World tickets (waiting to see if there are any summer discounts or deals first), book family pics, book the dessert party and possibly the GF pirate cruise for DS, and make the autograph books! Oh, and lose 30 more pounds... 112 days until we leave!

 

[Koh1977]

Magic - I just realized we will be at Disney at the same time! Are you still staying at OKW?

 

[Missoutandabout]

Hello my favoritest changing chicas.

You know what's pretty amazing about MM's Single Digit Dancing? This is probably the longest she's EVER not changed something... Hope the girls get over the germs QUICK!

Linda: Thanks for the Dessert Party info! Was worried it would be a mad rush sorta thing and the kiddo would be left not being able to see. I'd just be happy stuffing chocolate into my gob. Hmmm, it sounds like it would be quite a nice thing to plan for either his birthday or in celebration of our anniversary. Not sure if the first night we're there might be "too much" though. Gotta go find Sheila's thread!

Janet: Oooooh! WOW! Way to go, Sam... of course, if they do post a video, you'll have to share the link. (Thinking of you guys since I've managed to get Miss M watching HP. She's already done Philosopher's Stone and is now watching The Chamber of Secrets.) How'd the new carpet turn out?

Wookie, Sheila, Sue, Petey, Koh, Marie and the rest of you lovely lot...

All this chat of California Grill has got me keen to try it. The (old) menu sounded REALLY super good. Hoping the new one is similar. Adding this to my list of new places to try along with GF Cafe (and the Dessert Party )

 

[peteykirch]

I went to the Cali Grill for the first time last year and it was just magical.
