Adr's and tickets booked....!

[florry]

Just got off the phone with Disney - booked our ADR's.

It is so great talking to them - they really make you feel good!

It makes such a pleasant change talking to someone who is polite, friendly and welcoming on the phone.

Really "in the mood" now - LOL

Also - just sorted out the theme park tickets - 14 day disney and 3 day (plus 11 days free) universal. They have gone up a few quid since the beginning of the year but are still fantastic value.

24 days to go ...... not long now......

i started my trip planner diary last night ...... dh thinks ive gone

[orlando novice]

Forgive me for sounding a bit thick but what does ADR mean

 

[wilma-bride]

ADR = Advance Dining Reservation.

florry, did you have any problems getting the ADRs you wanted given that it's quite close to the time?

I only ask because i really wanted to make a couple for our September trip but wasn't sure if we'd get them.

 

[Miffy2003]

Come on then florry, tell us where your ADRs are for

I totally agree talking to Disney makes me feel all smiley

Wilma-bride - I had to adjust the times a little and could not get a table for 6 at a couple of places (2 x tables for four) but if you get there in good time you can usually persuade them to squeeze you in on a table for 6 or at least have adjoining tables.
They are very accomodating though and are extremely patient with you on the phone.

Well Miffy - of course I have the obligatory ADR for Sunday 21st at the Rose & Crown (after the Dis-meet of course).
I tried to book some places that we have never eaten at before so I have also got the 50's Prime-Time Diner at MGM for lunch on 25th - Boma for dinner on the 23rd and a character breakfast at Chef Mickey's on the 30th.
We are also going to try out Beaches & Cream on the 27th (Kitchen Sink me-thinks!).
I would love to be more adventurous - the San Angel looked fabulous for a romantic dinner - but I'm afraid we have the in-laws with us this year and they are strictly "meat & 2 veg" if you know what I mean! I almost got lynched for taking them to the Rainforest Cafe in 2002! "Damn foreign food"...........

Oh well - I just have another excuse to come back again - don't I ?....LOL

 

[Miffy2003]

Great choices florry!

We loved the 50s Prime Time, and are eating at Boma this trip as well. Beaches & Cream I'm sure we'll squeeze in as it's only a skip and a jump from the Boardwalk

Oh and we loved the Rose & Crown in December!

Clearly a case of great minds think alike methinks

 

[florry]

Miffy - What did you eat at the Rose & Crown? Any recommendations?

 

[Miffy2003]

Girls' Castle Pudding

Sausage and Mash (Yummy!)

Dessert Sampler (Yummy Yummy!)
