DxDP with an 8month old??

[umieesa]

TxRabbit and pp's thanks for all the advice. i definitely see that I'm trying to make the most of the plan to convince myself it's a good value. Your advice almost steers me back to the regular dp though since I feel it makes me not as rigid and meal centred.

Last trip we almost always ate in our room first to maximize park time and EMH. I think I'm thinking more about myself and my desire to try all this food and not what my kids will want It's starting to sound to me that I should save the dxdp for another trip, but I'll have to tinker around with the restaurants again and see what seems to work best.

Sometimes I hate the fact that I'm such an obsessive planner!! AAAAHHHH!!! At this moment I think I appreciate my husband's laid back travel style!

I think it was worth it, wouldn't do it every year but for the first time yes and will do it again sometime.

Just because it gives you 3 TS per day, recommend not using 3 TS per day - snack for breakfast (get from resort and take with you to max park time), mix of TS and CS for lunch (so you dont have to worry about where your reservations are each day) and 2 TS places for dinner. This way you are not a slave to your dining reservations each day all day long.

If you like the refillable mugs for am coffee - that's $14pp you save with DxDDP. Also, some of the 2 TS shows have tip included (CRT, BBQ, HDD, SoA), so you arent paying tip oop if you have any of these. So the $600 plus tip difference you mentioned before might not be as much as you think.

If you have the money to spend, I can justify it for you.
