[troobabiee7]

Hey Tink! Sorry I'm so late, I haven't been on much lately. I'm SO excited for you and your bf! Going alone with give you two a whole new perspective on the resort. You can get to enjoy the romantic side of everything, and start your own little traditions. Have fun planning!

 

[tinkgurl]

It never hurts to use the safe... better to be Safe than sorry!

Hahahahaha...no pun intended, huh Tim?!

Hey girl. So glad you made it over! I was glad to see an update on your TR today!

I really can't wait to see what WDW is like for just the two of us. It'll give me a glimpse of what'll be like with our own family!

 

[Sunset Cliffs]

Um, helloooo. I am so late to your PTR. I don't know where I have been, other than my Dis time has been so limited lately. I'm so sorry!!

I can't believe your dad was able to get all of your ADR's that you wanted. Yay! It all sounds great. I will interested to hear about them, since I haven't been to a few of them.

It's exciting that you and your B/F are doing a trip together. You will be able to create some new traditions while doing some old ones as well.

I have been trying to watch the video that you posted earlier, but it keeps freezing up after 30 seconds or so. It was enough to get me hooked though and it was so cool! Do you mind if I post the link in my TR as well? I want quick access to it whenever I need a WDW pick me up.

 

[that's nice]

Tink...
The online ADRs are up. I went on there and found some great dinner ADRs like 'Ohana on the 14th for 6pm!!!! So if you have some time check it out! I might have to add 1 for Sunday night. Although we might just hang out with Mel's cousin on Sunday and go to DTD at night. Maybe this would be a good time to check out Raglan Rd. again. hummmmm decisions decisions

 

[creativeamanda]

Yeah--they are up--I got the dinner I wanted at Grand Floridian Cafe today. Right after Wishes. I wanted Ohana, but that was booked, so I thought I'd see it from the GF and get to play around with the settings on my camera.

Tink, I wish that dh and I had gone to Disney before we got married--I'm a little jealous, but at the same time, soooo happy for you!

Haha, it's alright! You're here now! How's the little guy doin'? What is he going to be for Halloween?

I can't believe he was able to get them all too! I for sure thought at least Le Cellier would be a no-go.

It is definately exciting going just the two of us!

Aw, I'm sorry that the video keeps freezing! Gosh darn it! Of course you can post it in your TR!

Ooooh Tim..you are really a bad influence! Just kidding!

So if you'll be at Ohana at 6 pm on the 14th..we'll be right across the water from you! We're going to MK that night.

That's great you got the Grand Floridian Cafe! I can't wait to see your pics from there.

Well I hope you can enjoy my excitement with me!

ADRS MADE!!

You guys might think I'm weird, but we decided to make our ADR's for lunch every day and then just eat CS dinners at the park we're at that night. That plan worked well since park hours weren't posted!


Here they are..If you have any recommendations on things to order, please let me know!:

Monday, 3/15: Hollywood Brown Derby at 11:30 a.m...This one uses 2 TS credits.

Tuesday, 3/16: Breakfast at Kona Cafe at 8:30 a.m....This one we're paying OOP since HBD took 2 credits. Then, Le Cellier at 2:05 p.m.

Wednesday, 3/17: Yak & Yeti at 1:00 p.m.

Thursday, 3/18: The Wave at 1:00 p.m.

Define weird.

I think lunch is a good idea, since you don't know the park hours. Hopefully they will be long, since it'll be spring break for many.

I don't have recommendations for what to eat, but it sure is fun planning along with you.

You may think I'm weird, but even though there is a 'slim to none' chance of a spring trip for me, I did get on SW yesterday and check flight prices. Annual passes are paid for you know, so there is just the little matter of:
flights,
rooms,
and food.


Like I said, slim to none.

Nice papa for making your reservations for you!
Glad you got everything you wanted.

And we know how much you missed your dessert last time, right??!! Go for it!!

Haha, I knew you probably wouldn't think I was weird MeMom!

They finally posted the hours..I'll be posting about that sometime today or tomorrow!

Don't you love Annual Passes?! That's one of the reasons B/F and I are able to make our trip.

I love planning with you and everyone else on here!

 

[lauren_elizabeth]

Awesome ADRs! I looooove Kona Cafe! I've never had breakfast there, only dinner, but it's one of my favorite Disney restaurants!

 

[stacikristine]

Your ADRs sound SOOO great!! Yum! I can't wait to see how you like them. We did a lot of lunch TS restaurants in 06, and it worked out really well. You also don't feel so full at night! I REALLY want to try Yak and Yeti next time... And about the app/salad, I don't think it can work that way, but I might be wrong. I wish they would change it where you can choose an app or a dessert--that way we could split both!

Thanks girl. I ate dinner at Kona Cafe a long time ago, so it's been awhile since I've been there. I'm excited to try breakfast.

Thanks! That's great to hear that you liked doing lunch ADR's.

You HAVE to try Yak and Yeti. It is soooo good!

Aw, well maybe I'll have to just ask our waiter/waitress at each restaurant.

March Park Hours

Finally, March park hours were posted the other day! So, I wrote them down and now have an idea for a plan for our days. Now, this is definately something new for me to do because we're used to being there for a longer time and just winging our days. This is what I have so far:

Sunday, 3/14:
MK is open 9 a.m. - 11 p.m., then evening EMH 11 p.m. - 2 a.m.
*We are arriving this day, so it works our perfect that the MK is open until 11 p.m. with evening EMH since this is the park we always go to first.

Monday, 3/15:
DHS is open 9 a.m. - 8 p.m., then evening EMH 8 p.m. - 11 p.m.
*We are eating at Hollywood Brown Derby at 11:30, so we'll probably sleep in a bit since we'll be tired from driving still.

Tuesday, 3/16:
Epcot's morning EMH 8 a.m. - 9 a.m., then FW is open 9 a.m. - 7 p.m. and WS is open 11 a.m. - 9 p.m..
*We are eating breakfast at Kona at 8:30 a.m., then we'll head to the TTC and ride the monorail over to Epcot. We're fine missing morning EMH's. Then, we're eating lunch at Le Cellier at 2:05.

Wednesday, 3/17:
AK is open 9 a.m. - 6 p.m., then evening EMH 6 p.m. - 9 p.m.
*We are eating at Yak and Yeti at 1:00.

Thursday, 3/18:
MK's morning EMH 8 a.m. - 9 a.m., then open 9 a.m. - 11 p.m.
*We are eating at The Wave at 1:00.

So, as you can see, the park hours/EMH days are pretty much the same as March from last year. Thank goodness, because our ADR's work perfect for each day!

 

[princess_momma]

We're just going around our neighborhood then over to my house so my parents can see him. My house is always the last stop because we give him special goodies and he plays around the house for awhile. Plus, it will be nice to get warm!

Aw that sounds so nice!! That'll be great!! Is your sister going with you too? Or will it just be you and your boys?

Hmm..I guess if you could only do breakfast or dinner at Kona..I'd look at the menus and see what appealed to you more.

I will probably go back and forth every day until I have to make my adr's! Even then, I may switch it around after! Oh well...

Haha, I wish I could send you some. I will take a pic for you though.

Okay thanks. I think we'll be using the safe.

Yay! Thanks!! The safe is under where you hang clothes.

I really can't wait to see what WDW is like for just the two of us. It'll give me a glimpse of what'll be like with our own family!

No sneaking in stuff like that, which catches me off guard and makes my eyes tear up!! That is just so cute...I was answering the phone when I read it and it just made me choke up!! They probably thought something was wrong with me because I took so long to answer! Oh well! You guys are so cute.

It'll probably be just me, B/F, and the little guy. While my Sis loves him to death and loves being around him, she has a different love/relationship with him than me. With her, she's the one who will go see him and play with him. With me, I love him more than life itself, he's the apple of my eye, he is my own. My whole family sees that. He's like my son. He even looks a lot like me. For instance, me and him are the only ones (besides my grandpa who now has gray hair) that have blonde hair. I think he understands our relationship. He listens to me. He lets me do things to him that he won't let anyone else (like clean his ears, change his diaper, clip his nails, dress him, give him a bath)..stuff like that. Okay, I'm sorry I'm blabbing!

Haha, it's so hard to make a decision! I'm sure both breakfast/dinner are both great.

Aw..I'm sorry I made you get emotional. But that's so sweet of you to care that much.

 

[Lynn5700]

Hey girl! I'm so happy that the hours worked out for you guys! I'm so excited for you and your upcoming trip! I'm glad I'll have a great TR to read after I get back, lol!

That's so sweet that you have such a special bond with him. He's really lucky to have you. I'm really glad that you have each other actually! I don't mind you blabbing about him. I know how easy it is to just go on and on and on about little guys.

Don't be sorry you made me emotional! I'm just a sap! I just think you guys are so cute!! Can't wait to follow on all those future trip reports with your own family!

 

[that's nice]

And we know how much you missed your dessert last time, right??!! Go for it!!

LOL I might have to... Although I've never been to Ghirardelli either. I have to get something from here too!

So, as you can see, the park hours/EMH days are pretty much the same as March from last year. Thank goodness, because our ADR's work perfect for each day!

You had your ADRs planned perfectly!!!! WTG!!!!

I can't believe how well it worked out!

LOL..you are so sweet! And I can't wait to read yours!

He really is a blessing. If I didn't have him, I don't think I would've been able to go through his mom's death. It is SO easy to go on and on about them..lol

You had your ADRs planned perfectly!!!! WTG!!!!

It is crazy how well it worked out!! I figured the park hours or days would've been changed a little bit but they weren't!

 

[Sunset Cliffs]

Haha, it's alright! You're here now! How's the little guy doin'? What is he going to be for Halloween?

I can't believe he was able to get them all too! I for sure thought at least Le Cellier would be a no-go.

It is definately exciting going just the two of us!

Aw, I'm sorry that the video keeps freezing! Gosh darn it! Of course you can post it in your TR!

We are still working on the Halloween costume. Todd wants him to be a rocker (like Billy Idol in the 80's rocker), but it is hard to find "leather pants" for a little kid. I really hope we can pull it off because I think it would be so funny. If not, we bought a Buzz Lightyear costume as a back up.

Your scheduling looks great. It seems like they have good EMH when you are there. If you are skipping the EMH at Epcot, that is a good park to do it at since it is so much bigger than the other parks.
