Nobby's Gnomies... heading to WDW in April 2010

[Charleston Princess]

Yeay, Jen (MegansMom) is here!!!

My best tip learned from Unofficial Guide: avoid EMHs in the summer! It really does seem to make a difference in crowd levels!!!

I am so exhausted -- just got home about half an hour ago -- had a soccer game afterschool and then headed to SIL's for her birthday. I don't like busy afternoons and evenings.

Ok... I have to ask... who IS Kristin?

 

[Roxychica7]

Thank you C!! Those Updated ADR's look GREAT!!
Oh how this SO makes me want to pick out what I want to eat at Allears!

Great tips guys! Jenn and P I totally agree with you guys, single riders line, especially for Test Track! You get to avoid watching that movie over and over again.

My tip? Hmm...going during value season! It's been the only way that Dbf and I have been able to go to WDW for the last 4 years in a row on 2 college students salaries!

Another tip: Getting a case of water (and a 6 pack if you like!) at the Hess across from Planet Hollywood at DD. This of course we did when we flew, otherwise we bring a case with us, it saves lots of money! And we sure do go through the water in the parks!

Katie I googled it and it looks like Muskegon and Grand Haven are about 4.5 hours from me (though almost a completely straight line west! It looks funny on Google Maps!). So depending on my financial situation and time off from work, that might be a plausible plan!

I am really tired tonight Gnomies...I'm not sure why...I was really upset last night over a family thing so I took a sleeping pill to be sure I would sleep through the night....now I just can't shake the grogginess! But, tomorrow I'm off so I think I'll sleep in some!

Have a good night gnomies!

Oooh! I forgot my tip! Here it is:

Research!! Knowing details and facts about where you're going and what you might do definately helps and keeps you from being overwhelmed! You can find better deals and smaller details which all help to make your trip more magical! And you can also help out those who didn't do their homework, if you choose to (e.g. - the people I met who were staying at the "Tahitian Villiage"....or the Polynesian! )

The Tahitian village still cracks me up!

Hope everyone has a good day!

It's blocking that page for me here at work -- is there an estimated date on that? It may affect my ADRs...

It says April sometime. They did say that if you call and tell the CM you want LTT Character Dining they won't know what you are talking about but it is coming. They are arranging the staffing and such.

I was going to change my ADRs but decided that it's a good thing for our maybe September trip. We'll see if I stick with that.

Hehehe. I am trying really hard not to get my hopes up but it's not working very well. Marc is going to be interviewing for a part time job and that has my hopes up SKY HIGH.

You girls are making me want to change my plans LOL

Sorry! Worst case, you get to spend Saturday with us.

 

[Charleston Princess]

Where's Remmy going to be?

Just remember to take Jim Hill with a grain of salt -- he's not always completely accurate. Although I hope in this case he is!

 

[jenjolt]

Remy will be entertaining you at Les Chefs which is a great restaurant that I highly recommend!!! I think I'm hungry right now!!! LOL!!!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

There's a photo of Remy so think that's real but it said it was a limited run ending soon.

He seemed quite sure about LTT but you're right, until Disney announces we shouldn't count on it. I hope it is true!
