Day 3 – Sunday, December 6 Magic Kingdom Finally we woke up to a day without rain. It was still cold, but at least we had sun. We had our hearts set on going to the MK, so even though we knew the parade taping would be that day we decided to go. We are early risers; well I should say our...

Day 2 – Saturday, December 5 We got up early and ate breakfast at Contempo Café using four CS meals from our plan. I have to say I didn’t care for the breakfast food here at all. Basically McDonald’s quality scrambled eggs, French toast and waffles. We did like that we were able to take...

Morning of the Trip – Friday, December 4 Seth & Nigel thought they were going to school. We even went so far as making them study for their spelling tests the night before, and getting dressed in their uniforms for school. A few minutes before they were supposed to go to school, I came out...

Hi Kate, glad you had a great time! Did you have a chance to eat at the Wave? I'd love to hear about the quality of food there. THe menu looks really good, but haven't heard many reviews... - Not getting to eat at the Wave is one of my only disappointments from the trip. We tried to...

Hi Friends- Just want to say thank you to everyone who helped me with planning our trip to CR. First stay at the resort and first trip with our twin boys (7 yrs) to Disney World. We stayed in a 3rd Floor Garden Wing room with view of Monorail and Bay Lake. Great room. Working on my...

We'll be at CR next month and staying in Garden Wing for the first time. My DH would like to stay on the third floor so noone is above us - eventhough we won't have balcony or patio. So how do I request that room? Do I call Disney's main reservations number? What specifically should I...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who freaks out. We too are doing our first trip with our boys - twins 7 yr old - December at CR. Once I got the date and restort booked, I was fine, but now I'm totally freaked about ADRs and which park which day. My DH laughs at me and says I need to just...

Does anyone know the open times in the morning for the counter service, Wave and Chef Mickey's for breakfast? My kids wake up really early and I'm wondering when they open for breakfast. I can't seem to find that info anywhere. Thanks! Kate

I have been really frustrated trying to get the reservations I wanted via the online tool. I finally called the number for WDW dining yesterday and was able to get two reservations at Saana, which I had been trying for every day. Still couldn't get into The Wave, but when the CM put in The...

Can you post the link for this page? I have a couple to cancel too. Thanks! Kate

Thanks that is a relief that the days are not crowded. Our kids go to be early, so I'm not worried about the night time being crowded. THanks! kate

If you are staying at CR can you go to the Top of the World Lounge in BLT? Thanks Kate

Would love to hear more about your trip! Do you have photos to post? Did you write a trip report? Do tell! Thanks! Kate

Can someone please tell me what the "Pop Warner" thing is? I see on the listings that this is happening the week we are there, but what the heck is it? How does it effect the parks? Thanks for the 411 Kate

Boy it is hard isn't it? So frustrating not being able to get restaurant reservations. At this point, I'm not sure what we are going to do. I guess we are going to have to try to show up at restaurants and beg for a table. We are staying at CR 12/4-8 and I can't get one reservation at ANY...

We are taking our 7 year old boys for the first time in December too. We are so excited! It is a surprise. We haven't told them at all. Have hardly told anyone, because we don't want them to spoil it and spill the beans. We fly out on a Friday morning, so our plan is when the boys get...

Were you on the dining plan? Where did you eat? Did you have ADRs? We are headed to DW in December for our first trip with our 7 year old twin boys. We are disappointed in not being able to get ADRs at the restaurants we want to eat at. Hoping maybe we'll get lucky with walk-ups...
