why do some people have all the luck - talked to a friend I hadn't talked to in awhile - she took her kids for their 1st trip to Disney (hers and theirs) last week over spring break...Didn't plan a thing (chalk it up to newbie - not knowing...walked over for lunch at Crystal Palace - not knowing it was a character restaurant. Asked how long the table was for a wait - CM looked astonished and said - we're absolutely full friend flippantly said "1st time here, so I guess we're screwed- laughing as she said it" - after manager behind CM stopped laughing - told my friend she liked her style and escorted her to a table.
Fast forward to that evening - she pulls out the guidebook, discovers, yes, reservations are highly recommended - decides to call for Cinderella's castle - tells the CM on the phone can we make a reservation - CM says sure - what are the dates of your visit - today and tomorrow - CM finishes laughing, says people make reservations months in advance but, she was in luck someone just cancelled...
But,

She in all seriousness said to me - "Can you believe people are that obsessed to actually call for reservations that far in advance...That's just unbelieveable"
After I picked myself off the floor for laughing hysterically - I filled her in on our reservation adventures at 3:00am...
