We'll be at POFQ from April 20-28th celebrating both DH and My 40th B-days. DH B-day is April 18th and mine is April 24th!! Woo.. hoo!!!!

We'll be at POFQ at the same time -- Dh's 60th birthday is the 20th and our 36th anniversary is the 23rd.

Can anyone send me the link to the April 2013 calendar on the WDW website? I've got the travel agent calendar, but I'm sure there must be one out now on the WDW website but I'm not finding it (not finding any calendars, just the park hours in a list format for each park). I'd like to add it to the first page. I just spent ten minutes on the website hunting for it to no avail. I did get a survey though asking me if I'd found everything I needed.

The TA one is exactly the same as the one put out by Disney, but here it is:

quoting myself so I can firm up my ADR plans. this is the only place I've written them out:

Sat. 4/13 - arrive at AoA - hang at resort, Chef Mickeys for dinner. Assuming we get an early morning flight and arrive at the hotel by Noon time, then we'll def. do Chef Mickeys.

Sun. 4/14 - Hollywood Studios - wish they had a good character meal, but I guess we'll just do Sci-Fi diner. Probably for lunch.

Mon. 4/15 - Epcot - lunch or dinner at Akershus - thinking early dinner. If we do Future World West in the morning then head to the WS at Canada at say, noonish, by the time we make it over to Norway it will be dinner time - 4-5:00ish.

Tues. 4/16 - MK - lunch or dinner at BOG - since Beast is supposed to be there only at dinner, I will choose dinner for this.

Weds. 4/17 - ??? MK again or AK - still don't know if we'll go back to MK on this day or do AK. Won't know 'til we're there so i guess I can't book anything.

Thurs. 4/17 - Depart for Cruise

We actually really liked Sci-Fi!
We had just about given up on eating at DHS because we have had not so stellar experiences at most of the restaurants, but we ate at Sci-Fi in July and would definitely go back!

 

[TJDisneymama]

Yeah, DS and I ate there in April and enjoyed it. DH and YDD have never been, so I think they will get a kick out of it.

I am actually going to drop Kona, and add Ohana for our last night.

We were going to do Kona for lunch one day, but I am not as impressed with the lunch menu (as compared to the dinner menu), and I don't want to commit to another sit down dinner. I considered GF cafe for lunch, but I think I'll just ditch planning that meal all together.

Gotta get this stuff nailed down - ADR day in 21 days!!!!!

Your link didn't work, not sure why. But I updated the first post on the 17th with the travel agent calendar. I just had in my head that there was also a calendar on the Disney site. Guess not.

 

[TJDisneymama]

there is a calendar on the Disney site, it only goes up to March though

I am going to be there on the same dates, but because I will be attending a convention at CS, thats where I will be staying. This will be my 3rd trip to WDW but the first time on site. And I am so excited, I am planning my nights, as the convention will take up my days, I can make ADR's 10/14 and have everything lined up, I am hoping it will be a bit easier as I am traveling solo. I love this board and listening to everyone's stories and magical memories.

I will be at a conference at CS 4/12-17 for a conference too. Are you going to AAPC?

Well, we went ahead and upgraded the YC portion of our stay to CL as well.

We are such suckers!!

I hope the CL at YC and POLY is as good as the WL!!

Woohoo for CL!!! We did CL at the BC a couple years ago. I thought it was great!!
We'll be doing CL at the Hard Rock. I'm a little disappointed b/c half of my family didn't want to do Disney for this trip. Crazy!!! I know but at least I'll be in FL and Disney for one day.

Woohoooo!!!

CL at the WL really spoiled us this summer, so we really wanted to do it this trip, so we had Poly CL and just a regular room at YC, but the thought of being in the same building as a CL lounge and not being allowed to enter was making me

Thus, CL at YC too!!!!
