180 days and ADR's DONE!!!

Arriving 11/26 for our first free dining adventure. Got online at 6 AM, and was pretty lucky with choices. Couldn't get Coral Reef for dinner unless we wanted to eat at 8:45 (not good for small children so we chose lunch) and had to choose Fantasmic pkg. at Hollywood and Vine for a pretty early dinner. Other than that, I got pretty much what I wanted. Even managed to get lunch at BOG on our last day. Now, time to start planning the fastpasses and watch for the ROL dinner packages to open up in hopes that I can just switch my Tusker House ressie to that. Whew, glad that's finished. It was a bit stressful, and I wanted to let everyone know that despite what I have read here, calling at 7 didn't get me things that weren't listed on the website.

I was figuring that it was the Saturday after Thanksgiving AND a free dining date, I wasn't surprised that some times that I wanted were not available. Free dining changes the game, IMHO.
