anyone ever ate at tusker house at animal kingdom? which characters show up? my adr are getting a bit crazy!!

Anyone ever have an ADR for less guest than they have, I have crt for only 2 for breakfast but will need 2 more seats for my kiddies

Oh, we love Tusker House. We ate breakfast there on our last two trips. Sadly, this time we are skipping AK since it's only a 5 day trip but next year we will be trying lunch there. The characters are awesome and the food is good!

We've eaten breakfast there the last three times. I find they are a little slow at seating you, but never feel rushed once inside. Before you go in, you get to take a family pic with Donald outside. You have the option of buying this picture when they deliver it to your table, or do what we do and have the photographer use your own camera for the picture. They never mind to do it! Inside you'll find Mickey, Goofy, Daisy, Minnie (?). They also do a little parade around the restaurant with the kids, super cute! Oh ya, the food is really good, and the POG - DELISH!!

What a great feeling to have flights booked! Is anyone else on this thread flying out of PHL on Friday, Nov 23rd?

We are arriving 11/3 and leaving 11/10. We will be offsite. Trying to decide if we should do MVMCP. Any advise? Would love to see Christmas decorations. Sad we miss the Osbourne lights.

I would do MVMCP then.... there is nothing like it at all and it really puts you in the Holiday mood! I love how it snows on Main St!

Ugh so this week for us has been crazy. Now my grandmother has been flown 3 hours from her house. She is in an active stroke. She already has an annureysm they have been monitoring. I may just have to cancel the trip, so I can get home. After this past week I may need a vacation sooner.

 

[aubreysmom09]

Hopefully, maybe, they'll extend the Military salute, too, so I can compare that discount with our current price!

On a happy note, my foster daughter's adoption was finalized this morning; she's my official daughter now!

Yay that's great news!

Oh no!!! Hope she is ok!

Hi Everyone! Hope you haven't been changing up those Disney plans too much.

I just happened to come across this article posted by a blogger on kids airplane themed books. Can't remember who is taking their 3 year old on a plane for the first time but maybe you can find some of these at a library or bookstore. Good luck!

Ooops! well I can't post a link because I am not up to 10 posts yet so.... go to Joyful Abode blog and look for her topic A.B.C.-10 Great Kids' Books About Airplanes.

Hope it helps.

Okay, I have a couple of questions..


This will be our first time at the F&W, should I cancel our ADR for our Epcot day and just snack around the festival?

Also, we would like to do the chocolate sampler experience, I saw that it goes on sale to the GP on the 14th, how quickly do those sell out?


I feel like I am trying to stuff so much into this trip, I just don't know when I will be back and I want to do it all! Does this all sound like to much?

11/7 : arrive late at night, hit the hotel and get a good nights sleep
11/8: MK with dinner at Liberty Tree Tavern going to try to get the Wishes Dessert party this day as well
11/9: AK, early dinner at Chefs De France, MVMCP
11/10: Epcot, late lunch at Tutto Italia, W&D 1/2 Marathon this night
11/11: Epcot, Discovery of Chocolate, dinner at San Angel Inn
11/12: HS, mama melrose lunch with F! package
11/13: MK in the morning, breakfast at Crystal Place, then we leave at 6 pm

We are doing MBYBBQ on our arrival night too. I personally would want to get to MVMCP earlier so maybe an earlier dinner or one inside MK or on the monorail loop.

3 parks on the 9th ( a day with pretty substantial crowd levels) may be difficult. I would do AK early break at the hotel then head to MVMCP.
