Hey Tracy!!! Disney really just is the BEST!!! Think about it... Where else on earth can you go that is an accommodating??? I have a shell fish allergy and lately it is super bad, to the point where I can't even be within breathing distant of it! All I do is call Disney's Dietary and Allergy line before I go and all the chefs call me before I arrive and meet me when I get there to discuss my allergy! I'm sure Bill appreciates Disney's Friendliness!

Hi, I am so happy that Disney takes care of things for your allergies and you don't have to worry, that is wonderful. Bill and I really do appreciate all that Disney does for persons with disabilities.

Hi Tracy, I followed you over from many other PTR's. It seems there are a lot of us going at the same time and we will be at the same resort for 3 days!!!!! This is my 1st stay at the Poly as well and I am excited. Maybe we will run into each other!

Looking forward to hearing more plans!

Natalie

Welcome Natalie! YAY for your first stay at the Poly, if you see is please say hi, I should have a lime green Mickey head attached to my camera strap and always seem to have my camera out. Heck, Bill and I are hard to miss, with me being super pooh sized and him in the wheelchair. I hope you have a wonderful trip!

Hi Tracy


sorry I had got behind in your TR w/ the family and never was able to post my thoughts...but I'm back! Your ever clever PTR picture caught my attention

You'll be arriving the day we are leaving Nov 28th...I'll warm up the place for you OK?

It will be fun reading along as you plan another great trip...

I love all the beginning instalments and pictures...

already it sounds great and a wonderful b-day treat too.

He's still toying with changing yet again and doesn't want to get us even more confused!!

I think the suspense is kind of fun!

Hi Tracy and Bill- just joining in! wonderful PTR! I of course found you on the DEC trippers thread. We'll be there at the same time too- maybe we can all meet up!

you guys are just the cutest couple ever. I love it when two people really share the passion for Disney. My DH is just now really starting to understand it and really only because he has now seen it through our little boy's eyes! I'll take what I can get! lol

You guys are going to love the WL- we stayed for 10 nights in early December last year. It was gorgeous!!! We loved just hanging out in the lobby and the boat to the MK was great.

Thank you also for all the enlightening information about the accessibility at WDW. Most people don't take two seconds to think about what all is involved or how difficult it can be.

Can't wait to see what this adventure holds for you two!!! consider me subscribed!!!

 

[Katie & Glen]

Just got caught up on your PTR. Can't wait for more!!

Welcome and thanks for joining us!! We love meeting Disers. Thank you so much for your kind words. I can't wait to stay at WL, I have to read your Dec. 2009 TR.

I am so happy the post on accessibility showed people how Disney helps people with disabilities.

Just got caught up on your PTR. Can't wait for more!!

Thanks for reading!

According to my mad Disney Fuzzy Math skillz

, I have 24 days until ADR day!! (I don’t’ count today or the day I make them).

Oh the ADR rush, I get a high off of it

, waking up early with my list ready

.

I don’t have it in date order, I have it in “importance” order. I put the ones I absolutely want to make sure we get first and then go from there. It is more complicated this year with the split stay, us staying more than 10 nights, and having the deluxe dining plan the last 3 nights. Why do I do this to myself?? Oh the @#$* BLUE eyes that’s why

. I thought I would share the list with you.

I will be doing a mixture of online and calling in:

Lecellier – Bill loves the place

‘Ohana (TnT*)
Whispering Canyon Dinner (TnT*)
Whispering Canyon Breakfast(TnT*)

TnT* = Toni and Terry because they are dynamite people (I know boo hiss bad pun ). It is easier for me to explain the wheelchair situation.

Tusker House Breakfast
50’s Prime Time Café
T-Rex

ESPN Club – Bill wants this, I am pretty sure it is a walk up, I will let you know how that goes after we get back.

Hoop Dee Doo - I will call at 6am sharp our time for this one.

Now with the 180 + 10 rule, I am hoping I will be able to do the Hoop Dee Doo reservation on my first ADR day even though we are doing it on the first night of the Poly stay

(I will see if I can, I will be calling about this one because of the wheelchair, the category situation, and the fact we are using the dining plan). I will have 3 more days of reservations I probably will not be able to book that day . That aggravates me. Those reservations include:

Chef Mickey’s Breakfast
Cinderella’s Royal Table Dinner
Kona Breakfast
Narcoossee’s Dinner
‘Ohana Breakfast

We figured we would take advantage of our location, the Poly (I just like typing it) for these reservations. We have so many breakfasts this time, Mrs. Toni is to blame for that, I told Bill all the breakfasts they were doing and he wanted to do them too. We have all been talking on yahoo and I think he loves TnT already (I know I do). They are fantastic people. I think he would follow them around all vacation if I would let him. I had to inform him that they aren’t going to WDW to be with us, they are going for her birthday

and their anniversary

and to leave them alone, although Toni and I text if we aren’t yahooing so I am sure we will probably text some while in WDW. If not I will be in Toni withdrawals and will have to drink huge amounts of WDW alcohol to get through it

.

I need some HELP!! We have never been there during the Candlelight Processional. We want to make sure to do the “package” so we get a seat. We decided to go with the Tutto Italia lunch for this. My problem is Disney trains us that we NEED to make the ADR’s at 180 days out, but they don’t give us the tools i.e. = the Narrators list to make an informed decision, on top of that they don’t start offer the “packages” until after our ADR window has been open for a while. This causes me frustration and stress

and I don’t like it. You would think they would have to book the speakers way in advance so why not give up the list to us?

I have 24 days to tweak, mull over, and possibly change our picks, do you think I will keep with this set of ADR’s or change it around? This many breakfasts seem odd to me, but we will see.

Next installment… you know how Bill handles the parks but what about ME!!!

 

[Tinkermom76]

Love the ADR list!!! I know what you mean about Candlelight Processional... that is frustrating me too

Funny about your thread title... my son was in a sping concert last night and played the solo in Don't Stop Believing
I am gonna post the video link on my PTR

 

[oregonmommyof2]

TnT.... I love it...

Texting will be happening... Well, BB messenger would probably be easier... We have the same park days for most of them so I am sure we will be running into each other!!!

And I have a feeling the booze will be flowing whether we are together or not...

I am so glad we are getting close to ADR day...

It's so funny that I got you guys doing all these breakfasts... We love them... But we are huge breakfast people...

I am glad I am not the only one frustrated about the CP. I love having a theme to our installments. I will have to see if you post that link .

Let's do BB messenger, if you haven't switched phones again, I went back down on the text plan since we have been yahooing like crazy. If you hear "TONI, TONI, then beep beep beep" that will be me and Bill trying to get your attention from across the park .

Woo hoo on the booze . ADR day seems so far away!
