It was fun, even as sorcerers we had to wait and pick and choose. Obviously I didn't get an update last night and now I'm on hold with WDW dining trying to get into F&W special events. Over100 calls before I got in the queue!
Good thing we're not doing any special events for this trip. I hope you get what you want.
Did I miss the link to this?! I'm always the last one to arrive!Be back to read.
Hi Fran It is so nice to finally " meet " you Can't wait to meet you both very soon Congratulations on your new home and getting the F & W ressies !
Just to put my two cents in, and to add in the stuff Alison probably won't remember, I stayed up the night before we were going to make those 4:00 AM calls so I could wake Alison up. This is our usual routine when we need to be up at an inhuman hour of the morning, as I don't want to take any chances on me not waking up. Alison does not wake up very easily, usually I have to pull the covers off her and pull her up and out of bed (normally to a chorus of very cranky words). This time when she finally heard me say "It's 4 AM and you have to call Disneyworld" she came to and bounded up.
With both of us calling on the cel phones, doing about 20 calls each a minute, it was probably about 1000 calls before one of us got an answer. Then, the recording said that the wait was over 30 minutes long....
10 minutes later I got answered, so we both waited, and waited, and ... well, you get the idea. Suddenly, Alison burst out with words I would not want to put on a Disney related site, ending with "....I got cut off!"
I gave her my phone, got hers and started dialing again.
An hour and a half after we started dialing Alison finally got a human being on the line and was able to make all 3 of the reservations she wanted!
I was finally able to roll over and go to sleep for the night.
Take care
Fran

No non-Disney words here. 
M took his iPad and the family computer so the kids have stolen my iPad. It's a pita to phone post only.

I'm glad you were able to get you reservations. Fran, nice to have you join us!
Woah!
it's a zoo!Not this time, it seems I'm fashionable late to the party.
I'm glad that you at least made it over here!

That's great that you were able to get the reservations you wanted. I myself uttered that same thing while calling Disney today and I got cut off.
Welcome to the Dis!!!
So nice to "see" you here.
Congrats on scoring the F&W events.
Welcome to Fran! Thanks for coming out of lurkdom!Congrats on getting your reservations. I was able to book my deminars last week and then hadn't planned on anything and then decided to try for the Parisian Breakfast last night...got right in and got it booked.

I'm so behind but I see F&W and Fran
This cracked me up!
I always give you the sugar coated version, evidently now we're going to get the one from the bottom of the bag where sugar wore off! 
I know! Isn't is nice to have Fran's commentary....even if it isn't the most complimentary towards me.....
Now y'all will hear the other half!
I'm already drawing my chair in for watching from the sidelines.
I guarantee you......it'll be just like my relationship with DH. EXACTLY!
I'm so glad to hear that! We always think we are just like any other couple, just with different plumbing, and this helps confirm that. We both have our differences, but in the end we work them out!
