First family vacation Sept. 24th - Oct. 1st. Myself Husband and Daughter who will be 18 months. I just booked our ADR this morning. I'm so excited!

 

[Marmie]

We just booked last night - Sept. 9 - 14, club level at the Polynesian. It will be me, my daughter (3) and my mom. This will make three Disney trips in just under 12 months for all of us - we went to WDW last Sept., my daughter and I did DL in January, and my mom and dad are going to WDW in May.

I'm working on ADRs, though it doesn't look like we'll be able to do CRT.

I just took a look at different crowd calendars.
Some days are marked with a crowd level "1" from out of 10.



I did not expect that..

We're 167 days out, can't quite believe how quickly this year if flying by!

DH booked a few dining reservations for us. We've booked dinner at Crystal Palace and Cinderellas Royal Table. We've never been to Crystal Palace before but CRT is a fave of mine.

So far we've only booked lunch at Tusker House. We haven't been in ages and loved it the last time we were there.

I would say we probably wouldn't book any more because with September being quieter we have always struck lucky with walk-ups. We're not desperate for any other restaurants so winging it is not a problem for us.

You've had luck with walk ups during free dining?

Yeah, last year the only things we booked in advance was Cali Grill, T-Rex and CRT. That trip we also ended up eating at Nine Dragons, Sci Fi, Biergarten & Rose & Crown with no issues. I'm sure we ate in other places too but those are the ones I can remember off top of my head. I think it helped that we weren't overly picky about where we ate and will just about eat anything. Also we were never really fussed about particular eating times. The year before that we pretty much had the same experience.

Hi! We are so excited..! We are going Sept 23 till the 29th for our annual Autumn pilgrimage

We're not too far out (less than an hour's drive) so we usually tent camp at Ft. Wilderness, but this time the family is itching to try indoor accommodations so it's PORS... I'm already pining about missing Ft. Wilderness this year but still excited to stay in an actual room.

We'll be doing MNSSHP and EF&WF, plus getting 3 or 4 day tickets.

I'm not making ADRs except I made them already for CM-- we bring breakfasts with us, as well as most snacks, and do CS most of the time, and if a place is slow we may actually walk in for a sit down meal (like the Trail's End in Sept-- we love it there and it's always slow for lunch on weekdays).

Just really looking forward to it!

Been to Disneyland more times than we can count and now our FIRST trip to Disneyworld is booked!!! So excited to be spending 2 weeks in September in the Happiest Place on Earth! Now just trying to decide where the "MUST EATS" are so we can make some reservations. See you all in a few short months!!!

Hey Everyone. I'm all booked up for our family of five getaway to Disney this September 9/14-9/22. Thought I would hop over here and join in on the celebration!!! This year we will be staying in OKW. I have asked to be next to a quite pool so we aren't around all the traffic. Since it will be mid Sept shouldn't be too bad though. Our first family trip was 9/16-9/27 Last time so we are going to be there a little earlier. Cant wait to break out our AP that we got in November. This will be our first time staying at OKW. Last year we had a 2 br at SSR and the year before we were two days at AK in Kidani village and then the rest of the time in a studio at SSR. It was such a shock to be in a 2 br this past November from the studio LOL. We have driven the past two times and will be driving again. Its a 15 hour trip so not so bad we load up on the energy drinks. and Plow through the night. Its a fun adventure and kids will be 9, 7, 4 so they are relatively good as long as we keep putting on the movies lol..
I will be catching up on a few books even though I cant do any writing of my own, so it will be a nice break. Soo cant wait. Oh and we have reseies at 1900 park fare for dinner a d chef mickeys for a breakfast.
