Looks awesome
Your trying alot of new places which is great
Hopefully all the ressies work out
Side note:
We have driven many times from NY and it has worked out for us you guys are a great team you should be fine
Thanks! Also thanks for the positive driving story, hopefully all will go well with us. It will be our first time driving straight through!
Oh, I hope you guys love Boma as much as we do! It's our favorite place to eat on the entire property!!!
The rest of your choices look great, too! I am still tinkering with all of our ADRs -- there are a couple of places that I am torn about. I think I want to eat at LTT for lunch one day and 50's Prime Time, but we may opt for a 2-credit signature instead. Decisions, decisions.
I have heard SO many positive things about Boma, can't wait to try it. What are the favorites we should try there? LTT lunch was GREAT for us, we just loved the food at lunch!
Looks great Lesley!
I am almost done with ours too! Have you ever been to the plaza for lunch? We are thinking of doing this on the afternoon we leave
It will actually be Bryan's birthday and he wants to go to the MK on his birthday! Did you make a request at Saratoga for your 1 night on the 21st?
I just thought...now that you have a ressie for the 21st you can call for your ADR'S a day earlier now too! Woo Hoo!
Diane
We've never eaten at the plaza at all, can't wait to try it. I haven't put any requests on my ressie's yet, it's on my "list". YEAH about the ADR window, didn't think of that, thanks!
Tim did a great job on the video. The ressies look good, too. I think you made a good decision with the driving this time. 16 days is a long trip and it will be nice to have your car to use if you want
Glad you enjoyed the video! I agree, we'll need our car for those 16days, especially with July 4th crowds.
Oh that looks like some good eatin'
You will love the stepsisters and Lady Tremaine. They were so funny. Our poor dd4 was scared of her but her autie told that she was scarier than Lady Tremain so that made her feel better
Boma is so nice for dinner and they have an amazing breakfast buffet as well. yum yum. Great slide show and wow on the decision to drive. It'll be great to be able to bring food with you.
I can't wait to experience 1900 park fare with them, I worry about Lauren being scared of them though, she is SUPER sensitive. WE'll see how that turns out.
Lesley
Looking over all those ADRs makes me HUNGRY for some DISNEY FARE!!!! Looks like a GREAT usage of the credits and a wide variety of food! How can you possibly go wrong?!?!?!? ;o) We have done Turf Club at SSR twice---both for dinner---and REALLY enjoyed our meals. I am hoping for you that lunch is just as good! My nephew had this risotto as part of his meal in June that was TO DIE FOR!!! We all sampled it, and I still think it was one of our favorite things we ate on that trip! I think your plans on getting those early AM ADRs for breakfasts inside the parks at MK and AK are GREAT! One of the best things we have EVER done on any of our trips! I hope you get them all!
I know, makes me hungry too. I looked at the Turf Club lunch menu after your post and think we may skip it now, thanks for the heads up.
Lesley
Your ADR's look great and hope you enjoy Boma! I also think it is a great idea to do Ohana on the 4th of July so you can see the fireworks from the beach!
On a side note I am so tempted to plan a trip for this upcoming year since they are having the Military discounts and then yesterday I got a 40% off pin code via e-mail! I just don't think it will work out though. I have always wanted to get a Pin code and I finally did and won't be able to use it! Oh well I will evetually get over it...I think.
I can't imagine not liking Boma after all the positives I have read here. Yes, I think the 4th should be nice. The military discuonts are incredible! Is your husband active military? If so did you see the free hoppers, etc. deal that is AMAZING!!! I can't believe you got a pin code, soooooooo jealous!
Lesley
Lesley---I also forgot to mention that I think you all will LOVE the character experience at 1900 Park Fare with the stepmother and stepsisters---especially with Tim along for the ride. The more you interact with them....the more they will harass, I mean interact with you!!! It was SO much fun when we went there last November with them---especially the stepsisters!!!!
Yes, I think Tim will have lots of fun with them, hopefully LAuren will hold up, if you remember how sensitive she was at 50's primetime, sure it will be similar with the stepsisters, we'll see how it goes.
Great dining list
Making me hungry
opcorn::
1900 Park Fare should be fun with the evil stepsisters...they look like a riot
Should be fun!
I'm surprised I didn't see whispering canyon on there! I love the antics you guys [or should i say tim] gets in to! It looks really good, im certain you'll love Boma...and when I stayed at AKL, the feeling of being in the room relaxing and just going "oh time to go downstairs for dinner" was WONDERFUL!
I know, I think we'll skip it this year since we'll be trying Hoop De Doo for the first time, that should be fun for Tim too : ) Yes, can't wait to try Boma!
Lesley
Lesley, your ADRs look fabulous! You will love AKL - it is so beautiful and relaxing, and you can be entertained and educated just by walking around the resort and watching the animals! Hope you love BOMA!
Thanks, can't wait to try it all.
Lesley
Lesley,
Your choices look great. We will try the Hoop-de-doo for the first time in June also. We have always wanted to do it, but it has been either cost or time that has made us decide against it. You will LOVE Boma, DH insisted we do 2 nights there while on the DXDDP. They have a great breakfast as well, which we will enjoy twice. It's so nice to have a "night in" at AKL. We will try Jiko for a parent's night out in June. I've heard wonderful things about it.
Do you know that AKL has many cool activites for kids? Unless it has changed since last time, they have things like african drumming, pelican and flamingo feeding, evening storytime and there is a kid's parade with african instruments that starts at the gift shop. Ask for a schedule when you arrive to see if you can fit any of these in. Kids get a bead for each activity they complete to add to a lanyard or necklace. DD also enjoyed talking to the experts on the savannah, they were such a wealth of information.
I remember DD engaging in a long conversation with a CM and when I asked her what it was about she said "we were talking about the mating habits of elephants, Mommy". I could barely keep a straight face as the CM complimented DD of sharing her knowledge of this topic, LOL. Anyway, you'll love it at AKL.
Now everyone has me wondering about the Boma breakfast, maybe I should squeeze that in.
That is halarious about your DD, so funny! Thanks for the kids activities tip, I read that aloud to Luke and Lauren and they were super excited. Lauren's favorite animal is a flamingo! : )
Lesley
First of all, the video that Tim made was GREAT! That took a lot of time. I've been trying to talk my DH into driving from NW Ohio. But, he says no go. It'll take too long.
Second, HOLY CRAP!! You get to eat at a LOT of places!!
How awesome is that! You should be able to give a lot of reviews for the rest of us who aren't eating in as many places.
Glad you enjoyed the video. Holy Crap indeed : ) : ) Oh yes, there will be lots of reviews, would you expect anything les
Lesley
