[mari360]

ok i won't change CM.... i'm gonna call and see if Kona Cafe is availabe...

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

I'm just kidding Mari, do what's best for you and your family. We will definitely meet up sometime!!

Like I said, I'm not leaving the World until I meet a MAYer this time!!

 

[rusafee1183]

hey after you guys get your dining situation handled i was wondering if you could take a look at my list to see if there are any days where it seems like just TOO MUCH running around... i tried to keep the first few days pretty organized but after that... who knows what i was thinking ???

 

[mari360]

Hey RF - I was looking at yours and they seem great. Not too much running around. I would keep them... I do see you are doing a lot of restaurants double. Maybe you want to try different ones but the way it is now is just fine...

May 11- My Birthday!!! Crystal Palace 9:05am/ Whispering Canyon 2:10pm / California Grill 8:50pm
May 14- Cape May Cafe 8:50am/ Teppanydo 4:00pm/ Kona Cafe 8:55pm

For those 2 adr's it does look like you will be at the park and have to leave to go eat ... are you planing on going back and forth to the park. IF so then that might seem a little hectic... but if you aren't going back then they are great..

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Rusafee - I did notice that several days you have 3 ADR's. Just my opinion, you are going to be really really full! I know on the days we have a breakfast ADR we don't get hungry again until late afternoon. We usually pick up an ice cream cone or small snack around 1 or 2 and then have an early dinner, maybe 5:00ish. But that's just us. We eat a lot at those breakfast buffets!

Everything looks great though! You are going to get to try so many places!!

Mari, did you call yet?

that's exactly what i was thinking too, i was thinking of canceling my wcc adr but, i don't know... i was looking forward to it!!! it's just hard because that far into our trip i may just want to go back to the resort and go to the pool or something, but it's hard to say until i'm there... the reservations were honestly the hardest part of planning my trip!!! but if tjose are the only days you see that may be a problem, maybe i'm in better shape than i thought

i know!! that was another concern of mine! i am kind of regretting getting the "deluxe dining", i know i don't have to use them all for sit down meals, but i also want to feel like i'm getting my money's worth

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

There are some great Counter Service places to try at WDW too! Do you have any of those in mind?

 

[JoBird]

Mornin MAYers!

Happy St Patrick's Day!!!

anyone other than me have Irish in them??????

That's where Belle gets her Auburn hair.

Guess what???????



I BOUGHT CROCS!!!!

Hot Pink ones at Costco- only $20! Was that a good price? I was walking through there with a cart full on Saturday and I looked up and Heaven's light was beaming down on this end cap full of beautiful shoes. The angels started singing, the doves were flying, and Jo was grabbing. I was going to get black, but Mark said -get pink- so I did. Then I came home and Belle started crying and said " I never got any of those" and I said "well what are those called?" she said "I don't know but i never got any." Then she went screaming to her room and slammed the door.

Awwwww, she is my daughter.

I'm cleaning this week, getting ready for the party on Friday and the In Laws on Saturday!

Have a Blessed Day, MAYers!

Jo

RF-

This is how I'd do it-
leave all of your ressies the same as they are now- you chose them b/c you thought it sounded good.
Then use it as a guide. If, close to the time of the ressie, you don't think you can go or don't want to- call the dining # from you cell and cancel. That way, you always have a ressie SOMEwhere and you can see how crowded the parks are too- if you can't make it- no biggie.

I have been known to change ressies three times in a few hours AT the parks -
*AHEM* last year- Shelly- our Coral Reef day!

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Morning JO!

What did you decide about Friday and school???
I just signed my kids up for the egg hunt on Friday. I'm still not positive we are coming, but probably. Hopefully it won't be raining and snowing like it's calling for.

 

[rusafee1183]

There are some great Counter Service places to try at WDW too! Do you have any of those in mind?

no, i'm not sure of which to try... any fantastic ones?

Jo

Yes, I know you guys were trying to avoid me last year!!! You cancelled your Coral Reef ADR, Mari cancelled her Donald's Restaurantosauras ADR. . . .

And I left WDW without meeting a MAYer.

awesome advice, that's such a relief! thanks for the reassurance

p.s congrats on the crocs!!! keep us posted on how you like them

 

[rusafee1183]

mari,
i meant to tell you earlier that the pics on your myspace are super cute! your daughter is adorable!!

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

no, i'm not sure of which to try... any fantastic ones?

Well, most everyone loves Peco's Bill's. But we weren't impressed. I think we just went on a bad day though. It was crowded, there were no clean tables, people were rude, and the food was just okay. That was back in 2005.

Last year we tried Casey's Corner. Everyone raves about their hotdogs. I'm thinking how good can a hot dog actually be??? It was actually pretty good. You get a foot-long hotdog, fries and a brownie or cracker jacks on the DDP. The topping bar is the best! The cheese sauce is wonderful! I put it on my hotdog and my fries!! And the kids were thrilled they could get mini corndogs instead of having to eat chicken strips AGAIN!!!

We ate at the Sunshine Seasons in the Land. DH liked it. I though it was okay. They have some different choices.

The food court at CBR is huge and great! You'll probably have a nice one at POR.

Wolfgang Puck Express is very good!

This year we are planning to try Electric Umbrella & Cosmic Rays!

 

[JoBird]

Shelly- or would that be Kelly- They ARE on crack!

Nope - I decided I am going to be running around so much on Friday preparing for the long weekend that I am making the kids go to school on Friday, but i am going to let them stay home on Monday, B/c their grandparents will be here and I am not going to feel like getting up and getting them out the door. Plus, they are only going to be here for a few days.

Let me know if you go up there-
I don't know if i will be able to make it by, but i will try if you are going to go.

Jo

wow! thanks! i guess i will research the CS restaurants a little more so like, if Jo said we end up cancelling an ADR, at least I'll know what's good that's around... and also, i actually heard from my aunt and my cousin, who are HUGE WDW fans also, that cosmic rays was a must see!!!
