Well, my August trip hit a roadblock in the form of 10.5 month employees in my school district (I will work out of the district office next year, so no flames here) having to return to work on July 31. So looking at other choices throughout the year and the calendar, we came up with a good alternative: October 29-November 4, which encompasses Halloween and Election Day and some funky stuff going on--2 teacher inservices, where I have typically nothing to do because my job is to go in and interact with the kids in their classrooms. We'll be on the dining plan but will possibly upgrade to the Deluxe because we'll have another 2 months of vacation savings in the bank. We'll just have to call our AAA agent (who already seemed pretty disgusted with us over the changes she had to make--I mean, was it really that difficult or was it because our change meant a less expensive trip).
So, these are our possibilities:
October 29--We are leaving from home at 3:30 pm. Will see the gates of Disney at 12:30 am
October 30--early breakfast at Magic Kingdom. Crystal Palace and maybe lunch at LTT or the Plaza (which I never hear anything about here). MNSSHP that night so perhaps a quick dinner at POR where dh brings it back to the room while I get the kiddos dressed for the party
October 31--Halloween--Animal Kingdom--Tusker House breakfast and/or Cape May Cafe dinner
November 1--Epcot--Princess Breakfast and/or Chefs de France or Le Cellier
November 2--Hollywood Studios--Hollywood and Vine for breakfast (my 6yo still loves Jojo's Circus) and Hollywood Brown Derby for Fantasmic (but is this really necessary with low crowd levels?)
November 3--Breakfast possibly at Chef Mickey's and late lunch at CRT before we leave
This is, of course, if we upgrade. The missing meals in our upgrade would be CS meals.
