ASMU Oct.27 - Nov.2
No MNSSHP this time
No ADRs (QS) but still looking for an OOP BOG opening:rolleyes1
 
:cool1: I am so excited! I am going Oct 11-18th. We are a multi generational group of 6. Grandpa, Grandma, myself, DD23, DD19, DS4 (who is turning 5 on the 21st). We are going for my son's first trip for his birthday. We are staying off site in Davenport where I have rented a house. That was more economical for us because of conflicting sleeping habits, most of us need our own bedrooms. We have 5 day park passes and we will go one day to the Holy Land Experience. I am debating the MNSSHP. My son would love it but my parents would hate it. I may take him alone with my girls. I haven't even thought of ADR's because we will be driving by so many restaurants on the way back to the house. If you were going to do one special table service in 5 days where would you go?

Great! Thanks! Here are our plans so far...

14th- DTD
(BBB 6:40pm & ADR at 1900 Park Fare at 8:25pm)
15th- HS (ADR at 50's at 1:15pm)
16th- MK
17th- AK (ADR Rainforest Cafe at 4:15pm) (Chip & Dales Sing-A-Long 8pm)
18th- MK
19th- Departure Day :sad:

We might get a 5 day base ticket, so might add in a park arrival or departure day. No MNSSHP, :sad: , just not in the budget.

Resort choice has changed since the newest addition to our trip has been taking along Grandma and "Papa". We have booked at the Caribe Royale in a 2 bedroom Villa.

I do have a question about parking for things at Disney resorts when your an offsite guest and don't have an ADR. Like I said, we will be attending Chip & Dales campfire and are hoping to watch the Hallowishes from the beach at the Poly on the 18th... I've read a few things on the boards but got pretty mixed results, any experience with parking at Disney resorts without ADR? Will I need to figure it out with Disney Transportation or do you think I'll have a good chance with guards letting me park for a couple of hours?

Also, Grandma and Grandpa will not be attending every park with us but can they drop us off and pick us up without problems and without paying for parking?
:thanks:

:thanks:

I updated your information. :thumbsup2. My experience has been that we have not been able to park at resorts unless we have an ADR. They usually give you a certain amount of time to park while you eat. We haven't driven in a few years though.

:thanks:

We like to just look at resorts and have never had an issue with not being allowed to park at a resort. I think out of the many years we have driven and parked at a resort we got a time limit pass once. I do not think you can be dropped off without paying for parking. Not sure though.
 
Staying at POP Oct 22-29th. Can't wait for F&W!! :banana::drinking:
