ooooh that's right...we got pull now! Thanks Des!

I'm going to wait & hear what night we are getting Ohana & 1900, before I decide anything else. We want to do an EMH night at MK & then I'll figure out where we'll be & eating. Only places we want to eat are the Cape May Clambake, since we're staying there & have never been, maybe Mama Melrose, and definitely Cali Grill, but other than CG, I don't think I need to jump on an AR.

 

[pdarrah]

Des - when you get a chance, could you add us to the roll-call on page 1?

Pamela, Dan & Darrah Aug 20-23 - Beach Club

(Actually we arrive on the 19th, but it will be fairly late in the evening)

Thanks, Des

Boy, they seem to be cutting back. Summertime usually has at least one, some nights two, Fantasmic showings each night

Unless we plan for JellyRolls, I want to go out with a bang and do MK EMH Night on the 21st! I can always sleep on the plane the next day.

 

[magiroux]

Amen!!!

JellyRolls is a must! The 21st is probably what we'll end up doing. We leave on the 23rd so we'll have a day to recover.

There's been a lot of complaints about that on the theme park boards. Apparently the Fanstasmic shows are absolutely packed now. But the night time shows are really my favorite thing in WDW. I never get tired of Fantasmic, Illuminations or Wishes. So I guess we'll be fighting the crowds!

 

[pdarrah]

Hi Everyone! Happy Friday!

Is anyone here a current WDW AP holder?

NEVER MIND! - I found a friend with an AP who is giving me a discount card - YAY!

I just read elsewhere on the DIS (Theme parks board) that the Mickey Monitor that is coming out now has "pass it on" coupons for the passholder to give to friends with a 10% discount on a new AP! They have to purchase the AP at WDW in May, June or July. We'll be buying AP's when we go in June and 10% is around $50 savings - since we have to buy 3 "adult" (Darrah just turned 10) AP's, we could save $150! It looks like the AP holder who gives you the card, gets a $25 gift card as well.

Sorry, they are making me wait until 5/17 to make the reservation. I'll update next SUnday!

I tried to add you and Tom both and it isn't letting my update my post..not sure why..will continue to try.

I wonder why they are making you wait since your trip starts earlier.

I have two reservtion numbers - one for VWL 8/8 - 8/15 & one for BCV 8/15-8/22. Disney Dining no longer lets you make dining past your check out date with +10 thing (they used to let you) and my 90 day window for the second reservation number doesn't open till 5/17, if that makes any sense.

And yes, we signed up for 1900 Park Fare for Thursday - 4 adults, Thanks!

 

[magiroux]

just wondering.....

Is anyone planning on going to the 9PM Fantasmic! Show on Sunday the 16th that is not doing the Dinner Pkg?

Not sure if we're arriving on the 16th or not yet, but if we do we might. Oh & we never do the package anymore. We found we get better seats without. Of course that was before they cut down the amount of nights they show it, but we'll take our chances.

I am 95% sure Kallie and I will be coming, but I have not booked our dates yet.
I did find out middle school will be starting after labor day this year (last few years has been before), so that is good too.

We are T minus 3 days til the big wedding! As soon as that wonderful day is over and we ship the newleyweds off to Hawaii, that is #1 on my list to finalize! Kallie does not know about it, so it should be fun to plan!

Just wanted to say hi & update!

yeah! I hope you are going to make it!

Thanks Des!
I was perusing the portal tonight and found a room, so we are booked at POR FQ. I was trying to get resorts that others were at too, but couldn't pass up $75 bucks a night and we like FQ anyway!
I have it booked 8/14-21, but may tweak it depending on prices of flights out. I have to be back by the 21st because I have my high school reunion on the 22nd

Kallie will be so excited! Not sure if we will keep it secret up until the departure, or break it to her at some point earlier.

It feels so great knowing "I'm going to Disney World" !
I will catch up on reservations and such after the wedding!

 

[A Litle Pixie Dust]

Hi all!

Ok..Ohana is reserved but I am still waiting to hear on 1900 Park Faire...they made me leave a message with the restaurant.

Ohana was available for 6:30...I know Wishes isn't until 10PM but hopefully that will work.

I will let you know as soon as possible about 1900 Park Faire.
