The Plaza Inn meal actually sounds good. I'm not sure if I will do it or not. It's usually pretty easy for a party of one or two to find a good parade viewing spot. However, the meal actually sounds good for once.

Looking forward to more info on Mrs. Claus tea at GCH

Yes, please!

I think the buffet for Mickey's Christmas Carol feast has stuff I can actually eat!

Plus...Scrooge McDuck! I'm not sure I can pass that up...

I might have to extend my Dapper Day trip another day...

Did we know for sure that fireworks were going to be nightly for the holiday season? I think they usually are, but I wasn't 100% sure since things keep getting cut lately. When I was doing dining reservations today though, I noticed fireworks packages for Monday Nov 17th!

ETA: these were just standard packages for Docking Bay 7 and Tomorrowland Terrace

 

[Pluto468]

What, no meatloaf? Who will buy that parade package now?


I'm most excited for the Christmas Carol dinner but the breakfast with Daisy looks great, too. I hope they have the Tea with Mrs. Claus!

Looking forward to more info on Mrs. Claus tea at GCH

Did anyone do this last year please? I was wondering if it was more aimed at children?

Thanks
