[DVCsince02]

I'm tellin' ya. We need a book club meet on the ship.

If we can link the ADR's it may be best to have a two?
Right now, not counting katscradle's family, there are 11 scheduled to attend both events.
Anna, will you make them for +2? Obviously they won't have a table large enough for everyone, but we will still be close to each other.

Sure I can make ADR's for 4 people.

Ok, I called back. They still never asked me for my reservation number. The woman told me that Chef Mickey's is not following the 90 rule right now. It is open through June or something like that. And Le Cellier the earliest time is 8PM. I guess I didn't call early enough. I guess for December I am going to have to be right on top of the phone.

We have had dinner at Le Cellier twice and my son has never seen the inside of the place. He has slept through every meal.

Chef Mickeys is following the 90 day rule, but it had previously been opened up until June 13 so any date before that can be booked now. Once June 13 is 90 days away, they will also follow 90 days.

So question on linking dining. How many people can you link together? And, do most people plan on dining with their children? I know it's an option to have them in the kids' clubs. But is it planned that we will have four at dining and maybe only 2 of us show up or how does that work?

If you link parents together, you must link together children. Even if you plan on them eating in the kids clubs. You can't have a table for four with two families of four because you say the kids will be eating with the club. You must have a table of eight in this situation.

ohhhh - that must be why - i must have been within 100 days

The rule isn't if you are checking in to a Disney resort you can book at 100 days. It is that the first day you are arriving can be booked at 90 days and if you are staying at a Disney owned resort you can book up to 10 days after that without having to call back each day.

i'm not sure if i missed the post (you guys are so fast at posting i go away for a couple of hours and theres a dozen pages) but is there a list of podcast activities yet?

i read a few pages back that the brunch may be cancelled? is that right??

i was looking forward to it

does anyone know if the lunch on CC was planned or anything else?

we're down to double digits now for our wdw and dcl trip woo hoo

You will need to go listen to the podcast about the podcast cruise events. Nothing has been finalized yet, but a number of things have been proposed. It is not likely that we will have anything finalized for some time.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but there is no talk of the brunch being cancelled. The only reason that people are making brunch plans is because there is always the possibility that they can't do it. But no one has said it's not going to happen, right?

No one ever said that brunch was canceled. As I have said numerous times, nothing is finalized yet. Some have decided to book brunch at Palo just in case the Team is not able to do Palo brunch, some have booked brunch because they love brunch and want to do it twice. Regardless, people are reading too much into this.

I have a silly question....Lets say we are relaxing on one of the ship decks or on the beach at Castaway Cay. A server comes by to see if we would like a drink, I want a mixed drink , and my DH just wants a soda . I know I have to pay for mine, but is there a charge for his soda?

Yes, you are charged for soda at the pool, in the bars or clubs or in the theater. You can leave those areas and get your own at the drink station on deck 9, but if you have a server get you one (other than in the dining rooms), you will be charged.

Yes, it has really helped my post trip depression that my day began with

I am not a morning person, but this sounds like a great early morning thing. We could all meet in the adult area of deck 9 by the Cove Cafe.

I think you mentioned it first, so you can plan.

I would but my plate is full for this cruise. Between the fish extender list, the pre cruise meet list, and the wine and martini tasting list I'm booked. Plus I'm doing the fish extender list for our June cruise.

wow - not starting rumors or even an argument - just asking because of a few posts i read several pages -

please don't get mad at me for asking - i'm just trying to get the right info

BRUNCH IS NOT CANCELLED!

Sorry for the big font, but this is how rumors get started.

 

[stenogoddess]

Had a loooooong day today. Just wanted to say Hi to everybody, and get caught up on the thread. I think mindless TV is in order now.

 

[OKW Lover]

I'll be there as well. You guys had better include me in your plans!!

Jeff & Val will also be there. We're currently planning 12/11-14.

I have iPhone envy too. Bad.

I have Verizon and have always been perfectly happy with my phones and the service. It STINKS that only AT&T has the iPhone.

I am trying to decide where to have dinner the night of the 9th. I don't want to make an ADR before 6:30 since Judy's plane doesn't land until 4:15. I can't decide on the Boardwalk area or a monorail resort. Neither of us can be called truly adventurous in our dining preferences. I know a few people are going to Narcoossee's, but I'm not a big fish fan, unless it is battered fried and served with tartar sauce. I just don't know where to go. I need suggestions.

Thanks Tracy. I guess one of us will have to call on Saturday for Tusker House and again on Sunday for 50's since we can't take advantage of the + 10 benefit if we are staying at the Dolphin.

Called to change my dining ressies to add 11 people.
Found out the orginal ressie that was supposed to be for 4 was only for 2.
The CM I was speaking to said the ressie was not done right.
Again we go through the whole thing of needing a reservation # for SSR.
They can't change or help me.
I will be calling MS tomorrow morning.
I just want to confirm tonight that total # of people including us is 15.
Also is this for both Tusker House & 50's Prime Time Cafe.
Todd maybe you know, you are so on top of all this.
Please let me know.
Thanks

P.S. I will post here as soon as I have these ressies.
