Evening Gals

Annette I cannot tell you how many times I have changed our ADR list!! I read new reviews tell DH...or ask the kids for input... But once I actually make the ADRs that will be it...I think!!!

Amy More congratulations..I see you are now a vacation club owner at BLT! CR is my 2nd fav resort...and I am looking foward to staying at BLT on a future visit too...maybe after you give us your review...

Freak Dog Oh No they left you behind (no pun intended )!! You must have been very very bad....

Hi Mandy How did your DH fare being home alone with the gang...my DH was home alone and still managed to make a mess....

Deb No picky eaters here really...just lots of different opinions...I think I'll just pick what I like best...

Safe travels today GF gals...get home safely

Maxie I have always wanted to do a back stage tour but never have... Every trip I say I'm going to book one...Love to hear a little more about KTTK....

Also for your ADRs since you are eating at Narcoosees at the GF it might be nice to go over to the CR and try the Wave (and come back and give all of us inquiring minds a review!!).

One of the things I like best about staying at a monorail resort is being able to resort hop to dine...

Whats a vacation without lots of good food!!!

Shameless plug: I just did a segment on the KTTK Tour in our wedding TR, it is on p 21 (the last page, under Day 2 part 1).

I really liked the tour, and I tried not to give too much away in my review!

BlueSkies, The KTTK tour is awesome. There are so many of the Disney touches that you don't even notice. Everything is very carefully planned right down to the color of the streets. Read Amy's TR for a recent report on the KTTK tour. You should definately do it. There is one in Epcot and I never see any reports on it. We should probably give that one a try. Thanks for the suggestion on the Wave. I think maybe that is what we will do. Unless of course I change my mind again.

Amy, I am reading your TR. You are doing a great job. Love all of the pics. Those garden suites look so pretty.

 

[BlueSkies]

Maxie Thanks for the info... I did read Amys TR...Its great!!

Amy The tour sounds wonderful...I'm going to have to be sure to do this on my next trip...BTW loving your TR....

Howdy~ I'M BACK

I am off to read Amy's Trip report. I hope it all went great for ya!

I see you did the KTTK tour. I am thinking of doing this in July. The kids and Dave want a day at the water park and I am too old and dignified to be racing down a water slide and losing my skivy's
so while they are at the water park I was seriously thinking of taking this tour. How long did it last?
I guess I need to read up

Anyway~ just wanted to post here so I could sub it and catch up on all the happenings!!!

Brook: I took the KTTK tour many many years ago. It sounds like it's improved greatly since then. Back when I took it, we only went on one ride, HM. Lunch was at Peco Bills (not included, OOP). We still enjoyed it, but it sounds like you get to ride a lot more rides now. It's a six hour tour.

Did your SIL have the baby yet?

Amy: I'm reading your TR too! I just got all the Field Guides for Xmas. Where exactly is Walt's name on the Main St. I can't tell from your picture. Is he down by the Ice Cream Shop? I can't remember?

 

[praline3001]

Okay Amy, you said you would have rathered done the backstage magic tour than the KTTK tour... why?

As I said, I am looking at a whole day to myself and always thought the KTTK would be so cool to do.. I never heard of the backstage magic tour so curious as to what it was.

Do you get on rides like the KTTK?

 

[BlueSkies]

Amy Loved the pictures of the windows too...I have taken lots of pitures of them too over the years...

These are the touches that make things as magical as they are IMO...

So now we have pictures of the windows...pictures of the floors....what should be next....

The podcast wasn't working but I read his review just now. I think I am sticking with the KTTK tour. Don't get me wrong the magic tour sounds great if your a Disney nut .. but the sewing and Christmas storehouse just isn't my cup of tea.

I much rather hear and see the behind the scene stuff of the rides.

With our VIP guide I did go backstage several times at Epcot and DHS as we parked backstage (MK there was no need to go backstage)
To be honest... its not much to look at
its blah, bleak office buildings and office trailers.

I think KTTK would be more fun for me
