Just a heads-up: there is an NFL game (Chicago at Washington) that starts at 8:15 on December 6. You can count on the ESPN club being very crowded.

Fantasmic is at 7 that night, so by the time you get over to the ESPN Club it will be at least 8:00.

The list looks excellent, except I think you should add Crystal Palace somewhere on there!

Thanks for the heads up. It didn't even occur to me to look at the football schedule for a Friday night! Guess that gives away how much of a football fan I'm not. If it is too long of a wait, we'll just head elsewhere along the Boardwalk. We're staying at the Dolphin, so if we don't find anything that sounds good and isn't too packed, we'll just grab take-out from Kimonos & Picabu (for my non-sushi eating DH) and have dinner in our room.

I thought about it! It was one of my back-up thoughts if we hadn't been able to get CRT for our last night. The menu looks really good, but I don't know where I could fit it in, and I'm trying to go kind of easy on the character meals for the sake of my too-cool-for-characters 9 year old. He's cool with hanging out with Mickey & friends and is looking forward to breakfast with Stitch, is tolerating dinner with the Princesses because he knows DD loves them, but would probably rebel if I suggested dinner with characters that no one in the family is into!
