The Fireworks Voyage is an absolutely wonderful birthday present!!!

It really is! I'm so excited about it!

LOL I knew the fact that she mentioned cream cheese pretzels was going to make your day...I bet you are just giddy over that fact!!!!

Look at all these rave reviews...I'm telling you...Fried Wontons one of the best desserts on property...and knowing my love for all these creme brulee that is saying something .

Absolutely giddy!

You and your creme brulee! I'm still not convinced it's a yummy thing.

I had a bite or two of one, but yes, it was delicious. Life is not over for sure!!

I am so excited that life is not over...at least Disney eating is not over.

The Pirates and Pals Fireworks Voyage sounds awesome! What a great present!!!

You are going to enjoy all the good eating when you are there!

It is a great present, she is a great friend!

Phew......I am exhausted reading Version 1.0. Plus the fireworks cruise....Nice, very nice Jen!

I think your ADR's are great and I can't wait to hear about Jiko because I have never eaten there before. I've heard its amazing!

Looking forward to Version 2.0.

I'm really excited about Jiko, I've been dreaming about that BBQ Chicken/Green Apple Flatbread for over a year now!

Version 2.0 has been sent to Jen. I hate Version 2.0 but I'm respecting the Itinerary process and plan to share it.

I will give Artist Point some credit because it did have some lovely views of the resort grounds and waterfall, but the rest of the atmosphere and food didn't really make us want to go back. I've only been to 1900 for breakfast so far (would love to go at dinner with the Cinderella crew but can never convince anyone else that it would be fun). It was great. We had Alice, Mad Hatter, Mary Poppins- in nanny outfit because it was cold that day, Pooh and Rabbit. The characters were all fun and fantastic and the buffet was great. I would highly recommend it.


The itinerary looks great. The fireworks voyage sounds like a lot of fun, as does the visit to the Boardwalk/ Yacht and Beach Club area.

PS- Great warm and fuzzies this time- especially Jen's.

I would LOVE to see Mary Poppins in her nanny outfit! That would be so awesome...I kinda like that outfit better than the Jolly Holiday dress.

You forgot to include the drink Jen's supposed to have in honor of birthday!!!

You are going to have to take that up with her!

Okay, I do have to say, one of the benefits to you having to partake in all this rest and relaxation is that you are accomplishing some SERIOUS trip planning, my friend!

I love your lists, as always.

And I do have to say, I am a mite bit jealous of your pirate fireworks voyage! That's AWESOME!!!!!

 

[JPFamilyMom]

Wow LL you have quite the trip planned already. I'm also wondering about those wontons Jen speaks so highly of... Jen is there meat in them? I don't do meat, sorry, if not I think I'll have to give them a try too

LL if you are on 2.0 already, I'm placing my bet now, and I'm gonna go with 14 itinerary changes.... wait when is this trip? hmmm.... I have changed my plans like five times already You should see my planning binder, my DH just shakes his head ok, I checked you have 4 months, so I'm gonna go with an even 10 changes instead.

You will probably all get sick of me since I'm about ready for another update. I'll be updating so much that I won't have much more to say about this trip soon. Though I do need to finish my TR but that is one or two installments at the most.

The fried wontons are a dessert so they are filled with something like cream cheese I think. I am excited to try them!

Well...I'll let you in on a little secret...I've started writing 3.0, I'm just waiting for some input from Jen on version 2.0.

The Fireworks Voyage is such an awesome present! I might have to ask my parents about doing that for my sister's birthday when we go in February, or just her ask what she'd like to do. I want to make up for her last year's birthday but I don't want to overwhelm her.

I love your lists. I made an "ADR considerations" list earlier because I, too, love my lists. I love crossing things off them even more. I wrote down somewhere that I already decided against just so I could cross it off.

 

[jenjolt]

Let me make sure I understand this...you send me an update that you hate and yet you are waiting until I comment on it to post LOL!!! That's classic!! I love it!!! Hmmm so I can slow down your updates if I refuse to comment...hmmm that's nice to know for the future LOL!!!!!

Hmmmm...fried Wontons make me happy!! So does Creme Brulee...hmmmmm

I am really looking forward to our Fireworks Cruise it will be a lot of fun!!!!

I do that too! Put things down on the list just to cross them off.

Dude, I totally 'get' reservations 2.0. I just booked yesterday and I've already changed my dates twice, not to mention put some serious strain with booking/changing ADR's on the dining system.

And I've still got 2 1/2 months to go! lol

Jen and I just had an in-depth chat about Version 2.0. I think it's going to make 3.0 even better!

This totally cracked me up!!!! version 1 looks fantastic!!

The Pirates and Pals Fireworks Voyage sounds outstanding!! I would like to do that with my grandsons when they are both old enough!! Great gift!!

Looking forward to more!!

 

[jordanyosh]

LL,

How many versions do you usually end up with before you settle on one?

 

[MeMom]

Is today a special day for someone over here?

At least that is what I woke up thinking.

 

[Charleston Princess]

Happy Birthday, LL!!!

 

[TarzansKat]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!​

And by the by, I highly doubt 1. I'll get sick of your updates and 2. you'll run out of things to say.

 

[JPFamilyMom]

happy birthday LL

 

[mickeysmyboy]

What an absolutely wonderful birthday present!!!! Happy birthday to you!!!!!

We did the Wishes Fireworks voyage thingy when it was still a magical gathering experience in 08. But, it is extactly the same thing! It was sooooo much fun! Your going to have a blast!! We laughed the entire time!! During part of the cruise before Wishes our pirate asked if there was anyone celebrating anything. It was actually DD b-day so everyone sang happy birthday to her! Then he asked about anniversaries and DD chimed in that DH and I would be celebrating our anniversary shortly. The pirate sang Kiss the Girl to us and made us kiss!! It was hysterical and I swear my sides still hurt from laughing so hard!!!

Your plan looks wonderful LL!! I wonder, how many versions there will have been when Jan arrives! I know in planning our kind of last minute (at least for me, anything inside of a year is last minute ) Halloween trip the plan has changed at least 6 times!!! My head is spinning and the people who work the phones at WDW are sick of hearing from me!!!

Glad to see your feeling a bit better and Disney planning is keeping you busy!!

 

[jenjolt]

Happy Birthday Leslie!!!!! Love you and wishing you the best day ever!!! Hope you find that lobster bisque LOL!​

 

[princess&her4princes]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LL!!!!!!!

I hope all your birthday wishes come true!!!

Your plan #1 sounds great! And how cool that Jen is taking you on that cruise for your birthday present?! WOW...how fun!!! Can't wait to hear all about it!!

You cracked me up when you had Jen ordering a skillet..too funny! And Jen, what a great friend agreeing with it!!

Can't wait to hear ALL the plans, no matter how many they are!!!
