help me plan my ps's....

[dansyr]

ok ..need help planning ps's
help me please... I am an obsessive disney planner. Planning my disney vacation is what I live for. For the very short time we don't have a trip planned......I am a lost soul. Now our vacation is planned and I have 8 days 7 nights to plan and I am at a loss.
I have decided what restaurants we want to eat at( we are on the gold plan) ...now I can't decide when.

so far
WED - ( arrival around 9:00 am)
dinner - Cali grill ( figured this would be a good night because NOJ is planned for Thurs, Fri, and Sat. Last year no fireworks during NOJ so figured Wed would be good night to catch fireworks from the restauurant)

Thurs -
dinner Cape May Cafe and illuminations after

Fri - dinner - luau 8:00 pm

Sat. dinner WP's dining room and cirque du soleil

Sun - Breakfast - Boma
Lunch - RF cafe at AK
Dinner- late ps for Artist point

Mon - dinner - Narcoosee's

Tues - dinner - Jiko

Wed - breakfast - Kona Cafe
will leave to go home around 3:00

ok....now hear are the other restaurants we would like to eat at.




Lunches
Brown derby
Coral reef
Chefs de france
Fulton’s
Grand floridian tea



Breakfasts

Crystal palace
Grand Floridian cafe

Any ideas on where to fit them in. Keeping in mind....we will probably stay away from MK over the NOJ nights. Also.....where is a good place to eat lunch or breakfast close to typhoon lagoon and blizzard beach. No counterservice....want to make the most of our wishes.
Any advice would be appreciated !!!1

Do you know what you park itinerary is?? That would help me tell what I think would be a good combo. Im not for running all over WDW, I like to eat where I am going to be or whatever is closest.

 

[travelitis]

I absolutely plan where we'll be before where we'll eat. Have you worked that out yet?

 

[dansyr]

That is where I'm getting stuck. I would like to do one day at each park and a waterpark day. It doesn't really matter what day at each park so I was trying to plan my meals first and then plan the park around that. I can even split park days. This will be our 7th trip and we went 2x last year so I don't need to be at the parks from open til close.

Well here is a rough draft. I'm sure you will want to change it around to suit your preferances. I just did one park a day since I dont know if you guys park hop or not. Anyway I think I got in all your requests.

 

[dansyr]

Thanks
That was very helpful!!!!

 

[4greatboys]

Post your itinerary when you decide what you are going to do. I'd love to know how you work it all out.

 

[dansyr]

ok ...here's what I have so far. I still need ideas for the first day lunch. Anywhere that is easy to stop at on the way to TL????
Thinking either Bongo's or HOB. Any ideas??
Does anyone know what time these restaurants open for lunch??
I'm not worried too much about the breakfasts...we might catch a breakfast at Maya grill before leaving the resort in the morning

I have read a lot of good things about HOB but not really to much about Bongo's. Both are close to TL so either way it would be a quick trip over.
Website states Bongos opens at 11am and HOB's didnt have the hours listed on Deb's site.

We've been to Bongo's before for dinner and really liked it....now I'm debating whether I want to try an old favorite or something new. BTW, 4greatboys, thanks so much for your help.
