aww!! Your welcome!!
DisneyLover75~ Hi!! You are gonna be there FOREVER!! I am jealous!!! I think your plan looks good...you have a lot more TS times planned than I usually do,but if you think y'all would enjoy it then go for it! My family doesn't want to spend that much time sitting in a restaurant,so we do one per day--usually a dinner and just CS for lunch. We used to go to HS twice a week too, DH loves, loves, loves those Street Characters!!! so, we do a whole day, then a half day and go to Epcot for dinner. This last year we only did one day there, but we got to see them perform quite a bit that day, so it worked out.
Yes, I actually had only planned to be there a week, from like saturday to saturday or something like that. Unfortunately in order to get the free dining, we had to check in by the 15th, and then exactly a week from that was thanksgiving day.. but the whole idea was to spend thanksgiving in Disney. So I had to extend it.. I thought, ok, I'll come home on the sunday (25th) but then I tried to price out flights, and omg the flights on that day (or any day between 11/21 and 11/26) are INSANE!
So we extended it all the way out to 11/27, when the airfare is finally better. It was actually cheaper to stay in WDW than pay like $380 per person for a one way flight.
I'm not overly delighted about taking the kids out of school that long. I'm hoping that the kids will be able to bring some of their homework with them. Either way, there will be a lot of make up work to do.
But, homework notwithstanding, it should be a wonderful time.
We do enjoy our table service meals! If the kids weren't with us, I'd make even more ADRs! Well, maybe not.. the tips would kill me! A lot of times, I overbook my meals, and when we're there, I decide against it, and cancel before the penalty for no show. We'll see, that may happen this time too.
Thanks for the kind words!
