Fall 2016 planning (continuation of 2016 Free Dining Watch)

Thank you! I was able to change 2 of our 3 POR Garden View reservations to Standard View - saved almost $200!

The CM assured me that even though 1 of our rooms was Garden View and 2 were Standard, all of our rooms could still be close. Can someone reassure me?

Congrats!!! You can call about a week out from your trip to request your rooms be together. Contact POR directly and ask to speak to someone in room assignments.

100 days left......

Wooo Hoo. 90 Here but it feels like they just keep getting longer.

We'll have to get on the bus around noon on our last day. Later might have been better, but I don't think I'd be brave enough to go exploring on our last day. I'd be worried we would miss the bus! This way, we can take our time getting up and packed in the morning, check our bags, and go eat one last lunch at the food court before we get on the bus to go home. Sounds nice and relaxing to me. No temptation to go away from the resort if we leave at noon, yet not so early we have to set an alarm either!

We always go down to the food court for breakfast and pick up a few things at the resort store before heading back home.

I was sooo happy to see that different room types opened up at the Coronado this morning. It was only at 7am and they were gone by 9 but that is all I needed to change my room type from standard to water view. So excited that I finally got what I wanted. I hope others were able to also get what they needed.

Congrats!!!!!

Too funny! I'm the opposite. I have BC booked with a UOC and hoping to get YC. I always preferred YC myself. I like the ship wheel beds, more theming to me.

I like the idea of the year round FD thread! I think it might help my love of Disney not drive everyone in my family crazy, LOL! Good luck with you ADR's SunnieRN, if I remember corrrectly it's next week!!

Thanks again to damskipi13, kellyjeanie and 6loversofdisney for starting these threads and to all those that have joined in and kept them going. Hopefully, we still have 150 pages or more to plan, discuss and share our Disney obsession before we have to move on to the next part.......then bring on the sequels!!!!

I keep thinking that too! Our trip dates are the same and I was getting confused when people were saying they had less than 100 days to go. I had forgotten that this was a group of FD trips so some of them may start in August

 

[SunnieRN]

Last night I told my daughter, 'We're only 184 days out!!'. Her face looked shocked and she said 'Thats forever!!'.

So I checked for September again, but I couldn't find anything, so I will be living vicariously through y'all's travels!!!!

Does anyone have special nights planned when you reach 100 days, 90 days, etc.? I read about a family who celebrated each 10 days starting at 100 days. They would watch a Disney movie and have a dinner themed to the movie. I think I will try it for this trip. Especially since it is so close to Christmas also. The excitement will be over the top, lol. The grandmunchkins will be excited too!

Today we are 156 days out! We are not in the FD crowd so ours start a couple of days before the middle of November FD dates.
