Character Breks and Birthday Celebrations

[wilki32]

Hello...Again
Well as its getting closer more and more questions just keep popping in there, so...

We have a party of nine with 3 children, 2 boys 15months and 7 and our lovely daughter 8. The 7 yr old loves Buzz and Woody, so does daughter but she also loves the princesses and tigger. Firstly is there a Toy Story breakfast to keep all happy if not where is the Winnie the Pooh breakfast, what's it like and how do we book? (tickets haven't arrived yet, 10 day world pass)

Secondly my brothers wife has her Birthday whilst we're out there and also their anniversary, any suggestions on how to make their special occations even more special.

There is no Toy Story Character Meal - but it would be popular if they did it Pooh and Gang are now residing at Tony's in Magic Kingdom. See here http://wdwig.com/menu/men_ttsb.htm

You can make a priority seating for this breakfast by calling Disney Dining.

How about a special meal for your brothers wife??

When we stayed on site in 99 we had a Pooh character breakfast at Wilderness Lodge Hotel. The characters were Pooh, Tigger & Eeyore.

The food was great and the characters were able to give the kids real quality time.

Don't know if this breakfast is still available.

Stayed at WL in June and the character breakfast had gone. Have heard that Pooh etc were at The Crystal Place in MK but somehing makes me think it has been closed for a while not sure if it is open again yet.
For the anniversary side where are you staying?? A little mention on checking into your hotel may not go amiss!! Perhaps also a meal for two at a nice restaurant. Have head that the Califronia Grill at CR is good for a romantic dinner as is Artist Point at WL.
Hope this helps.

Winnie the Pooh was at 1900 Park Fair (Grand Floridian Hotel) breakfast last week along with Mary Poppins, Bert, Alice and Tigger.

For the birthday/anniversary I would suggest ( if you're not all going already) that you look after the kids for the night and get tickets for the Cirque for them.

Hi,

I can't give any advice on the Character meals but have been thinking about the birthday and anniversary.

How about the Hot air ballon trip over Disney - this is something that I am considering for our upcoming trip.
Or a horse and carriage ride at WL?
A quick helicopter flight?

You could organise a 'picnic' in their room - go to any of the grocery stores and get them lot's of nice nibbles and some wine/champagne.

You could try gifts of a lifetime depending on your budget.....
Or a table outside at the Rose & Crown so that you can watch illuminations as you eat.

For a more upbeat night what about a dinner show? You could do the Luau (can't spell it) Hoop de Hoo or any one of the non disney options.
You could plan a special night out a Pleasure Island or take them to the rodeo!
Are there any interesting concerts on at HOB or Hard Rock Cafe?

Good luck!

Thanks everyone
Cirque has my vote for them but its whether she'll leave my nephew with us, if I remember rightly the cinema is near so we could take him there.
Balloon ride and helicopter is a no go unfortunately as she's mustering all her courage to drive on the motorway never mind the flight!
The picnic might be a good idea and because we're staying at a villa we could do something special.
The best idea is the Rose & Crown but I didn't think you could pre book seats outside, if you can, how and where?
So I think Cirque for their anniversary and Rose & Crown if we can pre book outside for the birthday. This is their first trip and it would be really nice to make it just that little bit more special...if thats possible.
