just back, early PS/ADR

[rt2dz]

We just got back and I’ve been trying as much as possible today to post all our experiences in the appropriate places, and break it up by topic in order to make it easier to read and find what you are looking for. For example, most of our dining reviews are posted in the restaurant section by each individual restaurant. Now I’m trying to give the general overhaul with the kids and being pregnant. Seems like the stuff pertinent to the family board. If I miss anything, just ask and I’ll be happy to answer.

I will never again plan an early PS/ADR again. Yes, it is nice to get to the parks prior to opening. However, cranky kids aren’t worth it. They don’t eat as well when they don’t wake up on their own. They aren’t happy until they get a nap. When we plan a breakfast, we’ll plan it as brunch. We just need to follow whatever schedule our kids our following—early risers at home and on previous trips, but not on this trip. If they get up at 6:30 am, great, an early start. If they need to sleep until 10:30 am, that’s fine too. Whatever makes for happy pleasant kids. Actually, eating breakfast in the room is not only cheaper; it works much better for us. I tend to prefer (and DH and the kids) character dinners or lunches (Garden Grill) over the breakfasts anyhow.
