There are dangers being home alone, bored and a Disney trip coming up. It started when I heard someone on a podcast talking about a package for F&W. For $199, it includes special seating areas around World Showcase where you can eat and drink at a table. You also get a bottle of wine, special F&W glass, commemorative Magic Band, a $50 gift certificate and admittance to one of the late night parties. Don't really care about the wine, wine glass and MB but the gift certificate and party admittance alone is worth around $130. That is my justification and I am sticking to it.
Other than hitting a couple of booths a time or two, I never really enjoyed F&W so I thought I would splurge. Also booked two "Mixology Seminars," for $15 each. Oct. 7, is a The Fladgate Partnership (ports) and the 8th is Beam/Suntory (cocktails, including BOURBON). Attending the party Oct. 9 before the kid arrives late that night. Could be fun.
In order to take full advantage of this I added a day at SSR for the 7th. First time for that resort. May come up a day early so Norm and Jim, we might be able to get together before you guys leave. Anyone else at Epcot those days, chances are I will be there, so let me know.
