Thank you, Stefy!
I just wish Disney would hurry up with the park hours, so I can do some "fine" tuning!

 

[MamaPotts]

Like your choices, and the "sprinkling" of WPE throughout!

Thank you! I couldn't do it without the "sprinkling" of WPE!

Karin, your plans sound awesome! I love the variety.

I would go with Columbia Harbor or Cosmic Rays (I'm not a fan of Pecos Bills).

And as for that cruise...maybe in 2013 for our 30th wedding anniversary and Mark's 60th birthday.

Thank you, Kathy!
CHH is always my favourite - love the upstairs seating! But one of the MK CS has a new designer burger and we are on a mission of trying them all! I need to look into this in more detail (and maybe make notes and not play it by ear! )

Ups, forgot that it was 2013 you "wanted" to cruise and not 2012!

Rosie, we need to make new plans!

LOVE the plans so far, Karin!! I am with Kathy on CHH or Cosmic Rays - and the upstairs seating at CHH is the best indoor seating CS in all of WDW imho!!

2013 for a Cruise - more time for me to convince self!?!?! Rosie, better start saving those pennies!!

Karin, you are living my "Dream"!

Karin I have to say that we were very disappointed in CHH at MK on our visit last Oct. The food was not good and they messed up a lot of orders. We usually eat there for lunch when we visit MK. But probably won't next time. I have to admit we have not tried breakfast at WPE yet, we will have to try it on our next visit.

ABC Commisary has DESIGNER BURGERS???? I had no idea! Is this a new menu thing? Wow, I gotta check it out when I'm there next time.

Also, update about my possible trip status, I won't be going to WDW this year after all. I've decided instead to do two short trips to Montreal and New York respectively.

We'll definitely get to meet on future trips though! Since we both seem to like traveling in August

Thank you, Christine! this is just a rough plan for the moment! I really hope that park hours will be out soon and that we can make definite plans!

Let's hope for that 2013 cruise with DISfriends! Maybe we can convince Nicki and Todd too! Would be such fun!
And Kathy .......... I take your word for cruising in 2013!

You won't be disappointed with WPE for breakfast!
Hm, we had lunch at CHH before we left in September and we had a really nice meal. The only thing was that they were SUPER slow and things just took forever!
So I really hope the day you had that bad experience was "just a bad day!" as I really LOVE the upstairs seating, looking out over Liberty Square.

I am really sad we won't see you in August/September, Yuki! But I hope you at least post short reviews of your other trips!

They have introduced a lot of new designer burgers to the resorts and parks. You will find all about them on the Disney Food Blog! ABC has a surf and turf burger - and I am dying to try it!

Oh, I'll definitely be writing up mini TRs. It'll also be my first times going there without my parents! I might need to brush up on my french...

This also reminds me I need to finish my summer Niagara Falls mini TR

Ooooh, a bunch of new burgers! I gotta check it out.

More Yuki reports!!!

Did you check the food blog for the burgers? There are just too many we want to try and I am not even that much into burgers!

Now I finally have my park hours for August! I guess they are not officially out, but you can access them via the calendar on their site. It's a pain as you have to click on every single day, but at least I have them and can plan WITH them.
So, I guess tomorrow will be a bit of a "second" planning day! I wonder HOW MANY plans I am going to make!
But I can book my ADRs on Valentine's Day and at least I'll have something to go with!

There is some more "news"!
There seems to be lots of new merchandise on the DREAM and I really hope they still sell some of it when we cruise in August.

Now here is what I have an eye on .........

More Dooney and Bourke Bags!!!!!!!!

Aren't these wonderful? Which one, oh which one to pick?

I want one of each. But the new washing machine we had to buy Thursday night will prevent that.

Hooray for having a little more idea of park hours.

My thought exactly!

Yes, having the park hours is a huge help! At least I can do some planning for the first WDW stay.
Valentine's day is my ADR day - how cool is that?

 

[amandaluvsgoofy]

Hi! Subbing in!
WOW!! What an incredible vacation! Would almost be my ideal trip!
Those bags are so awesome! (I gotta thing for bags, purses, etc). Now I'm thinking I might have to buy something Mickey-ish for our trip...

Hi Amanda!
Great to have you along for the ride!

I just love those bags! I got one of the D & B Cruise line ones last summer, but I guess I definitely need another one!
