A little background...I am a disney maniac. I love coming on here to read about trips, plan trips (both real and imaginary), and generally keep up on all info pertaining to The World. I'm planning our 4th family trip for January. My DH, DS13, DS12, DD10 are all excited.
The problem: MIL and FIL, well mainly just MIL. I could tell some stories, but the Readers Digest version: Picky, difficult, and able to make everyone's night pure misery when things are not to her liking. First trip was not bad as I had all dinner ADRs because we were on DDP. Second trip was disaster because we were trying to save $$ by eating QS. Every night was a big stressful production surrounding food. Ugh. I have no patience for it.
So I'm determined to plan a magical trip that pleases everyone. (I know - classic people-pleaser trap!) I have 5pm dinner ADRs for every night, along with a mellowed-down park touring strategy. Here's our plan so far:
Sat - Arrival day - Trails End Buffet
Sun - Epcot - Biergarten
Mon - HS - Mama Melrose
Tues - Resort day- Whispering Canyon
Wed - MK - Liberty Tree
Thurs - DTD/BW - Beaches & Cream
Fri - MK - 'Ohana
New to us will be WCC, Biergarten, MM. The others are family favorites. Any comments welcome.
Thanks!
