Harmony Barber Shop started taking reservations a couple of years ago. They still take walk-ins. I've read that some people get upset when they are waiting and then a group with a reservation comes in and they go first. So for the first time ever I made a reservation.

In December, maybe you could start a, We Survived Planning a Nov 2012 trip, and now we all need to stay together, thread (you work on the name, I'm not the idea girl around here!

But seriously, I have another trip to start planning as soon as I get back from this one!

I love that idea for a post NOV thread.

We will also be planning a trip once we get back.
I'm hoping to get a BB offer when we go in Nov but if not we will probably be going last week of August when free dining is offered again. That trip will be a much longer trip than this November and I think my DB and his wife are joining us. I already started a list of restaurants we would like to try that we won't have time for in Nov.

I want a post November thread as well. I'm not sure when we will actually be in Disney again. My oldest DS is getting married in March. My youngest is dropping BIG hints of an up coming wedding. And yesterday I got my Disney cruise DVD in the mail. And we are really excited about that.

****DISCLAIMER not changing ADR's*************
I have a 1:30 lunch scheduled for the 5pm CLP and I am considering moving it to 1:50. I know its only 20 min but I dont want to make us late for the show! The problem being that 4ppl in my 11ppl party are playing golf that morning(on the 9 hole course) and I dont want them to be late to the lunch BUT I also dont want COral Reef to run behind to where we cant get to the show! Any ideas on if I should keep 1:30 or move it to 1:50???

You will still have 3hrs10min to eat lunch and get in line.. you would be MORE than fine - just think of all the things you can normally do in 3 hours!

20 extra minutes might be a really good buffer for those 4 golfers to have.

I agree.

I agree.

So the consensus is to move it?????

I think I would. But then maybe tell your golfers the original time. Especially if you do think that they will be cutting it really close with the 1:30 time.

 

[mommyof3princess27]

I moved it but ill tell them that they need to be in EPCOT AT 1!!!!

When we get back from our Nov trip it will be time to start planning for our cruise...of course...I might take a planning break to do Christmas.

Just what I would do.

You need that break. Then hit it hard.

yes ours too!

I'm so jealous.......maybe in a few months I will be able to say "ours to"

 

[Smileybug]

I can't believe this. I'm done with ADRs (well except for BOG ) But now I'm looking at resorts. I do this eveytime. DH and I love, love, love the WL it is OUR resort. But there is a part of me that has always wanted to try the AKL. And guess what? Free dining is still available at the AKL with a Savannah view. I am soooo tempted.

Why am I doing this to myself?

 

[vleeth]

Has anyone gone for free dining and booked bounceback? Was the bounceback for free dining also?

The fraud department from my Disney Visa Rewards Credit card called me today. Somebody tried to charge a $1000 plane ticket to my card. They also charged $100 to AAA and $2.00 to orbitz.com. I just used my card to book my disney trip with free dining last monday when the deal came out. They had to cancel my card and send me a new one. Disney has the old card number for the reservation so I hope this doesn't mess something up. The other thing that worries me is I gave my number out over the phone to the CM taking my reservation. Other than that I havent used it online or anything. I just wanted to post in case anybody else has a Disney Visa..you may want to check your transactions online just in case.

hmmm.....I received notification from the fraud department on my Southwest Visa Rewards Card. Seems that someone tried to charge $22.00 on my Visa card from someplace in UK. I was wondering the same thing as you. I had booked my trip with the free dining last week and then the email came. Luckily SW visa suspected this a fraud and notified me. so I also had to cancel my old card and then received a new one. Fraud Dept told me that generally when you acoount is hacked into, they start with a low charge and then work up to higher amounts. Coincidence???

I think I loved AKL even more than WL, Bomas has best breakfast buffet onsite IMO and the photo op's at AKL are just incredible if only it was not all bus transport now that I need to use an ECV I would stay there in a heartbeat! I have been checking CR constantly for my dates so do not feel bad
