"Insanity is my Middle Name" - Impromptu Easter Weekend Trip -Update 4/23 - Wishes!
I noticed I could still get a passholder discount room for Easter Weekend. I have the 3 days off of work. I've been pulling extra long hours since I came back from my last trip & I need a break. A break during the 2nd or 3rd busiest time of the year at the world? Yeah, I'm crazy.
What Actually Happened: Friday April 2nd, 2010 Yak & Yeti/Dawa Bar Jiko/All Star Music Food Court Saturday April 3rd, 2010 All Star Music Food Court/Snacks/Tokyo Dining Il Mulino Sunday April 4th, 2010 Breakfast/All Star Music Food Court Lunch California Grill Wishes Dessert Party Thursday May 6th, 2010 Friday May 7th, 2010 Saturday May 8th, 2010 Sunday May 9th, 2010

 Hope you have fun on your "break".

 ~ I'm actually a little shocked at how open the dining reservations seem to be. I mean the wicked popular places are full (Le Cellier, California Grill) but most everything else seems to have choices. I'm sure I'll change my plan like 5 times this week as I find better options w/ things I want.

On a whim, I tried for the Wishes Dessert Party on Easter Sunday!
It was available  Normally, I wouldn't do the dessert party, but I have a feeling (err know) its going to be a mad house in the Magic Kingdom that day & I rather know I have a seat to enjoy Wishes from.

That does sound like a good plan! And a desert party . . . especially in front of the castle . . . especially since there are no calories in WDW . . . right??? I hope???

I got back yesterday & had a great time! The parks weren't that bad but I've also been enough to know that I need to get to the park before it opens and there is so much I can get done by the time the people that sleep in get to the park. When I got home, I realized it was my 180 days to my October trip! So I made that plan and called to make the reservations. So that is all set now until the F&W Special Events get released at least. I think I only kept 2 of the original ADRs I made but I had no trouble eating where I wanted. The joys of going solo!  I'll upload my pictures when I get home from work tonight & get this started!

Our plan for October (is fluid until special events come out) Oct 1st Dinner - Chick-fil-a or other fast food Oct 2nd - Nothing Planned as we may do the Wine & Dine Half Marathon, if we don't do the Marathon, we'll do Party of the Senses Wine View Room Breakfast - Food Court (haven't booked the value resort for Oct 1st yet) Pool Relaxing Massage (?) Oct 3rd - Nothing planned for morning until we decide on the Half Marathon or not but most likely Hollywood Studios when we wake up Dinner - California Grill MNSSHP Oct 4th - EPCOT Breakfast - Lunch - Coral Reef Dinner - Shula Oct 5th - Animal Kingdom Breakfast - Lunch - Yak & Yeti Dinner - Il Mulino Oct 6th - Downtown Disney/Disney Quest Breakfast Lunch - TRex Dinner - Fulton Oct 7th - Hollywood Studios Breakfast - Cape May Cafe Lunch - Nothing Dinner - Bistro Oct 8th - Magic Kingdom Breakfast - Lunch - Liberty Tree Tavern Dinner - Citricos Oct 9th - EPCOT Breakfast - Lunch - Tokyo Dining Dinner - Party of the Senses Wine View Room We are staying at the Beach Club so we'll be coming and going from the World Showcase also in the afternoons/evenings. We'll also do some of the wine/food seminars when those are announced. We will only do 1 of the Party of the Senses if we decided against the Half Marathon. If I wasn't with my husband, I wouldn't do the Wine View Room but knowing him - he would hate it where you wander around without a table or the cattle call at the beginning. I think he would enjoy it more to have the assigned seat, the liquor available (he hates wine but is getting better about it) and such and less cranky husbands = happier Dis_Yodas. Breakfasts will probably be in room or at the Marketplace.
