Joining the fun and I am not going this fall. I have just enjoyed reading along. It is like reading a book and part 2 and part 3 are the sequels.

Will they get the resort of their dreams or not?

I have cheered along with the people that have got your desired resort and tried to send pixiedust to the ones still trying. Do not give up hope. I started reading along to get tips for next fall and have learned alot.

You know, when November opens up it will be like a mini fd promo all over again. Looking at October's dates, there's not much left. For some reason I thought the cost pp was around 35$. But when I played around on the ress the total cost for five people was 127.99 is that right? 23.99 pp?

I know the price varies depending on the season, peak season cost's way more, so that may be correct.

I am going to celebrate with all you guys and make some Ohana bread pudding, using my Cpt Morgan.

I want to do that too! I'm just afraid my kids won't make it so late. I wish all these fireworks shows started earlier!

Thanks Black for all the info. I never would have gotten the room I wanted with free dining without info about the Aug 1st release. Thanks again!!!

That sounds amazing!

I completely agree with you. I've had my vacation booked since the beginning of the year and would have completely missed out on the FD without the heads up ahead of time. The promo just officially launched on Thursday and there is already no availability at any of the moderates left for my week. I got through by booking online at CBR first thing Thursday morning, but obviously would have missed out if not for the early info. Thanks a million!

Pirates and pals is centered around Peter Pan, but the trivia includes questions about the PotC movies, too. The event starts approx. 3 hours prior to MK's fireworks (either Wishes or Hallowishes) at the Contemporary resort. It is a paid event that includes all you can eat snack items like cake, ice cream bars, bagged chips/pretzels/popcorn, chocolate coins, cotton candy, etc. You have a meet and greet with Captain Hook and Mr. Smee and then you head outside to board a boat. The boat takes you out into the lagoon to see the Electric Water Pageant and the fireworks. It is so much fun! The pirate captain is very entertaining. He sings and talks to everyone on the boat. He does trivia games, too. When you arrive back at the dock, Peter Pan is waiting for you. You do a meet and greet with him, too. Photopass captures the two greets as well as a photo with a pirate statue. I can post some pics if you'd like me too. Just let me know.
