Lol oh you're a regular we cross paths all the time - I consider you part of the DIS furniture

LOL! Perhaps something akin to an animatronic wardrobe or something?

This is gonna be a long weekend. Now off to do some finger push-ups. You know..... to prepare for all that dialing Monday!

 

[Valgoof]

I am outta here!! Celebrating my mom's birthday and then going out of town with DH. Good luck to everyone on Monday!! Ok, who am I kidding?! I am sure I will be on here again before Monday, but I am going to try not to. We'll see how long that lasts.

Disney blog just updated the post...BOG reservations will now be available via phone at 7AM on 8/20, not noon like originally posted.

Thanks for the update I'll be up at 5.45am anyway to see if we can book online at 6am.

I'm torn, too. Right now, I have dinner booked at Liberty Tree tavern. I can't decide if we should do BOG instead, or just stay at Liberty Tree (6:25PM). The menu at BOG didn't "wow" me, but I feel like the experience would make up for it...kinda like what I hear about CRT (meal isn't anything to write home about, but the experience is worthwhile).

If the menu at BOG didn't wow you, you could always just skip the reservation and plan on a light lunch or snack there mid-day on your MK day. I was more wow'ed by the lunch menu than the dinner, that coq au vin has my name on it! We're going to see how the crowds are for lunch, and have a back up plan if not there then we'll get waffle sandwiches from Sleepy Hollow ...
But I'm hopeful because I was at Flo's V8 Cafe two days after it opened, and the line experience was not painful at all, (there were a dozen people in line the first night and we were served in under 10 minutes) and its the same cuisine-on-real-plate-quick-service style as BOG. So maybe it will move quickly at BOG as well.

I'll be doing that, too. I know it's probably not going to work, but it never hurts to hope.

What do you guys mean "up"? That implies that there will be sleep involved to get up FROM!

When it was the day for me to make my original ADRs, I kept waking up to check the clock to make sure I hadn't overslept. I ended up getting out of bed at 4 because I wasn't really sleeping anyway. I have a feeling that I'll do something similar on Monday.

I think if I were doing a TS dinner I would do BOG for the experience alone. I just hate doing TS in the middle of touring a park. Plus we already have a TS almost every day and we'll need a break from all that food.

HA! well, if you're pulling an all-nighter then I will too. December Roll-Call Unite and all that

We're going to QS or snack credits for lunch. We have an early (pre-park opening) breakfast at CRT the day I'm thinking of, so TS will be a nice change of pace for dinner.

Oh, come on... It wasn't that cold in Dec 2010.

Everyone wears a football jersey over a hockey sweater while wearing a Santa hat, and/or a windbreaker over a hoodie with the hood on.

I'm just teasing. There were, however 3-4 days that were unseasonably cold. It was the lead story of the news every night.

That looks awesome!!!!! I can't wait. I'd be happy with cold weather. I'm not going to wish it on us but...some chilly nights would help me feel more Christmasy.

And BDL and BDLSGAL...you guys are adorable.

 

[JLa01844]

Ok!!! I have an idea!!! BDL's photo made me think we should all post our photos so *maybe* we can recognize one another!!! SO thanks, BDL and BDLSGAL...

Here we are... Me (Jenn), DH (Rob) and my DD2 (McKenna)

Awwww Loving your pictures BDL & Jenn - both look adorable!

How do I post a pic *scratches head*

You know, I'm not this ditzy in real life, only in my cyber life

You have to upload a photo from your computer to an online site such as Photobucket. Once you do that, I think you copy that link then when you post, click the picture icon shown above (it looks like mountains and a sun) and paste that img link (it says Direct Link on photobucket). I'm going to try in the next post.

Picture taken last month of me and hubby at the REO/Ted Nugent/Styx concert. Incidentally, Styx was my FIRST concert ever (1979) yikes!

I was the same way! But since we are staying off site this time to save money, I had to deal with a lack of sleep for several days!

Thanks Phatoomch.

To tell the truth, it took me a while to figure out. I was on the "is this you" thread that shows people's pics from their trips and you look in the background to see if you can see yourself. Needless to say there were many swear-filled failed attempts. Luckily someone gave me a quick fix. Move the epics to PHOTOBUCKET, click "img " then just paste that in your post.

Just found this link, and figured that DISers would appreciate it more than anyone else I'd share this with.

Thanks! We had a tough time figuring it out at first too (see BDL's post), but after your first successful post, you will wonder why it was so tough in the first place

Thank you for the great idea! I love looking at pictures that people post. You and you family are sweet! Thanks for posting about our pic too
