I better look at Trattoria menu again. Yesterday was my ADR day and I make res. Is the pizza a personal size or sharing size?
The pizza is a personal size. Just okay, IMO.

I just added park hoppers via that TA for our August trip with no problems. I'm thinking maybe a week to a month is what they need?^^This. I've used them before with no issue - reserved FP+s. Just can't change or upgrade. So, if you get a Base MYW and decide while you're there that you want to park hop, you're out of luck. But, you can change your mind beforehand and let the TA know. I don't know how far in advance, but I know you can change it up to a certain point.
A few of the standard rooms actually do have a view of SB.
We had a magical deal booked last August with a standard view and we ended up with a pool view. I assume they overbooked the category and we got the upgrade. We only had a Juliette balcony, but we wouldn't have spent much time out there, anyway.
We have used them 3 times now. Once you get the ressie number you can do all of the FP+, dining, etc. Pretty simple, if not the ultimate ability to control it.I've ised them for two trips - one last August and one for this May. The only downside I can see is if you don't like the idea of a travel agency controlling the reservation. It's never been an issue for me, and the savings are well worth it.
Bring her to Disney and turn her over to me, curmudgeons are my specialty!
On day 1, for every rude comment or 'misbehavin', I'll make her ride It's a Small World over and over again... and that's without a fast pass so she has to wait in line with the rest of us unwashed masses. Maybe if we get lucky, a teething baby will suffer a diaper blowout while riding in our boat. It doesn't get much better than that, but if she's a good curmudgeon, she won't be tamed so easily. Good ol' Ninja Mom relishes the challenge.
On day 2, for every grumpy old lady transgression, I'll make her ride Splash Mountain repeatedly and I'll ask the CM's to turn the fire hoses that they squirt people with on high.. That should loosen her hair weave and blow off a few of her extensions. But still, if she's worth her 4 star _itch rating she'll take it and continue to whine.
Now when we get to day 3 she'll be waiting for me. But she won't see me coming at 6am to drag her off to Extra Magic Hours and Space Mountain. If she wears dentures she better load up on the Poly Grip EXTRA STRENGTH because after we ride Space Mountain over and over again as punishment she might be missing an upper AND a lower plate. She'll be three inches shorter and in desperate need of a Chiropractor.
Usually the Space Mountain punishment is enough to turn any whiner into a blubbering puddle of cooperation. However, there have been a few instances of the rare breakthrough whinge. When she starts to tremor before her next eruption I simply sidle up to her and whisper in her ear "Rock and Roller Coaster" .
That's usually enough to get her to behave permanently. Heck! after all that you could even take her to Chef Mickey's and she would enjoy it, which is quite the accomplishment because no human over the age of 13 has ever enjoyed the enormous din and plethora of prepubescents roaming the buffet line unfettered by adult intervention.
The next time MIL wants to come to Disney and ruin everybody's trip you call Ninja Mom on the hot line and let her know. I'll be waiting in the lobby next to the cases of Boxed Wine that I brought for you and the husband. My arms and legs will be covered with every single magic band I have ever acquired, which will be pre-loaded with fast passes for every single Disney ride that can strike fear in the cold black heart of a malcontent.

I had 2 very large glasses and the chocolate brownie.So how many glasses of wine did it take? Lol!
In my experience, the pizza is too big for me to eat by myself, but not enough for a full meal for two. My DH and I shared a pizza, soup and salad and it was a perfect amount. I liked the pizza just fine, but it doesn't compare to Via Napoli. My guess is that their entrees are better.I better look at Trattoria menu again. Yesterday was my ADR day and I make res.

It might have been an upgrade. I'm just looking at the Touring Plans room viewsI didn't know that - just assumed we had an upgrade. Our prior experience with SV was the dumpster view staying YC CL. And the issue there wasn't the view so much as the service vehicles backing up at the crack of dawn. We were pretty overjoyed with the pool view.
Oh, what to do!! I was figuring on sharing a salad with pizza. Had hopes the pizza was really good. Well, I have lots of time to think about it and cancel. Thanks for the info.In my experience, the pizza is too big for me to eat by myself, but not enough for a full meal for two. My DH and I shared a pizza, soup and salad and it was a perfect amount.

Here's a Beaches and Cream dining question. If our family of 4 wants to have a late night ice cream treat, do we need reservations to sit in the restaurant? We booked a "dinner" reservation for 10 PM, but just want to have ice cream. Is that OK? Is it necessary? Can you just sit down in the restaurant and have ice cream without a reservation? Thanks in advance.

Oh boy...well this will give you and yours a true picture of winters in Maine
And Natebenma, assuming you did not freeze to death in Orono (it hit -18F here in central Mass plus add on the wind!), I think you will find that school pretty sweet. I wonder if the Pizza Dome is still around

Some convention tickets are only valid after 2pm or 4pm (I've purchased convention tickets while actually attending conventions at WDW and the only option I was given was the 4pm) Are your tickets full day tickets?
No, you need an ADR to get a table, even for ice cream. We have just dessert there quite often and they do not take walk ups.
