they DO have amazing coffee (pressed pot) and tonga toast is always a plus too.

I heard the pressed pot is amazing! The tonga toast looks like a brick of powder sugar covered poo.

good call. they do take ADRs - we were supposed to eat there for lunch once but their fryers were broken that day (and i wanted fried artichoke hearts!) and we ended up at WPE instead.

How was WPE for breakfast?

i've eaten dinner at boma and it ROCKED but i'm not sure about breakfast. i'm hoping B is the correct reasoning.

We are having dinner there one night but it just makes the most sense as I'll be there already (at the AKV).

if bricks of powdered sugar-covered poo taste like that, i've totally misjudged the taste of poo and i need to re-think things.

How was WPE for breakfast?

nope, it was for lunch. i was just saying that HOB takes ADRs b/c we were supposed to have lunch there that day and ended up at WPE.

Isn't it filled with bananas? I don't like bananas. I think the macadamia nut pancakes look so good!

Gotcha. The trip is so close, I cannot concentrate. I have totally checked out!

Now I want to do HDDR! Too fun!!!

 

[rentayenta]

Just scored a PIN code for Disneyland! pixidust: 35% off rooms.

yep, chock full of bananas. so that's a no-go for you! i love it though.

i would check out too!!!!!

Now I want to do HDDR! Too fun!!!

it was really fun. but it is something that takes a good chunk of your evening. it's not just like going to have dinner - you're there for about 2-3 hours including transportation time.

i will have to tell you when ray and i are ready to go to DL so you can pass on any discounts you get (if you would be willing). i know i want to go but i want to wait until any future child of ours is old enough to remember it because it's probably going to be the only time we go for a LONG time because it's so far away. WDW is not like that for us since we're relatively close (500 miles on the nose) and i can drive there with my eyes closed. i will SO be taking my newborn to WDW!!!!

 

[Bev1016]

All of this breakfast talk is making me want to cook up some pancakes or something. GF cafe does look yummy too . . . so many choices.

Jenny, I think you should use that pin code for DL right away--like maybe the week after you get back from WDW! That's where all the cool kids will be that week.

 

[rentayenta]

Michael would love it. He loves bananas and French toast.

i would check out too!!!!!

I was trying to train the girl that's going to fill in for me while I am gone and couldn't think straight. I was thinking: who ^&%*ing cares if you do this right, I am going to WDW in 4 days!!!!

Don't they do free beer and wine?

Disneyland is amazing! All of my children went to Disneyland as infants. Disney with a baby is still magical. I would happy to pass along any discounts I come across.

I breakfast food. I could go for a buttery waffle with syrup right this minute!!!!

There is this little thing called money that might be an issue.

 

[rentayenta]

When I wake up it will be 3 days! I just cannot get myself to wind down. I have had hot tea, did yoga, are some crackers, and am going to now have a glass of wine.

You are a breakfast temptress, my friend. That sounds so good.

I know all about it. Oh well, if I can't talk you into DL, maybe you'll visit my part of the valley when In-N-Out Burger opens.

Three more days? How great! But I hope you were able to relax and sleep well--you'll need all of the rest for the trip!

Oh Dawn thank you, thank you, thank you I'm SO over excited about going to see this nowand can't wait for Becci and Donny to come home later so they can be forced to watch it and get themselves onboard the Disney Enthusiasm train with Niamh and I. I've booked the 5pm show and I'm thinking of going along to the camp fire sing-along afterwards, I do enjoy a good sing-along after I've had a wee swalley

 

[punkin413]

and sangria!

go buy some melatonin. i always have to take it the last several nights before my vacation starts because i'm so wound up and i know i need my sleep.

you're welcome! glad you enjoyed them.

 

[rentayenta]

You are a breakfast temptress, my friend. That sounds so good.

I woke up still wanting the buttery waffle. I decided to look at my naked butt in the mirror instead and it curbed the waffle craving and then some.

I know all about it. Oh well, if I can't talk you into DL, maybe you'll visit my part of the valley when In-N-Out Burger opens.

I would LOVE to go but it's not even a possibility unfortunately.

Three more days? How great! But I hope you were able to relax and sleep well--you'll need all of the rest for the trip!

I was asleep by 11 and wide awake by 6 am.

You are going to have a total blast! I want to see the wee Jakeys after the beer and Sangria.

and sangria!

I love love love Sangria!

go buy some melatonin. i always have to take it the last several nights before my vacation starts because i'm so wound up and i know i need my sleep.

I bought some but it didn;t seem to work. How much should I be taking before bed and how long before bed should I take it? If I would like to bed asleep by 11, what time should I take it?

you're welcome! glad you enjoyed them.

Can someone tell me why my kids are fighting already this morning?

That's my problem--even after looking in the mirror, I still eat the waffle.

I would LOVE to go but it's not even a possibility unfortunately.

To DL, or to In-N-Out Burger?

Can someone tell me why my kids are fighting already this morning?

Maybe they're wound up about the trip too? I hope all is well!

The HDDR sounds like a lot of fun! That may have to be on our list of things to do for our next WDW trip (whenever that this).

 

[vamassey1]

Boy have ya'll been chatty. I just feel the excitement in the air. I wouldn't be able to sleep either.

one knocks me out in about 30 minutes. but i'm not sure how many milligrams it is. plus your tolerance may be higher than mine.

 

[DisneyJo]

what time do you guys think we should book BBB for after the meal(this may be one for Guru Jo)?

I think Jenny's right about 10am should be perfect, don't forget to send someone off to get you all FP's whilst you're in there

Okay, now you did ask for details so hold on to your knickers and here we go.

Love how you put that Oh and tha August hours are up now

The dining drama wasn't actually that bad, probably just me being dramatic and some irritation with the lack of park hours from Disney LOL.

OMG I'd better make sure my friend who is calling on Friday phones Virgin and gets the correct ressie number!
