Are you guys using ART or Walking to the park

 

[JadeDarkstar]

well im renting an ECV and my dh will push my son were walking art would be a waist of time and money

How exciting! I am trying to figure out dining for our trip in Nov. We are going to Legoland and SD for two days before we go to Anaheim. I am getting a hotel close to Legoland with our Hilton Honors rewards. That will save us a bundle. Are you getting a deal w/ the character meal vouchers? I always thought they were the same price across the board, but I really don't know. We plan on doing a couple character meals at the hotel- breakfast and dinner. We've only done Lilo & Stitch breakfasts in the past, and really liked them. I have heard good things about Goofy's.

It sounds great! I bet you are getting so excited!!

 

[JadeDarkstar]

well with the voutchers we look to be saving about 2dollers or so and to pre pay withc i prefer to do. and it has tip and tax included

Our itineraries are very similar! We get to the hotel on Oct 5th (but after a day at Legoland.) We planned Minnie's on Oct 6th but I'm re-thinking doind that either as late morning or a different day as we'll be so anxious to get going when we first enter DL! We also plan Storyteller's on the 10th, but then sadly we are leaving for home. Originally we were going to stay for the Halloween party, but it cut costs a lot to go home a day earlier. (One less night at GCH and DH would have insisted on a KBF day adding significantly to ticket costs. And the cost of the party! Plus our sons are young and although they liked MNSSHP last year at WDW, they won't miss it.)

One question as you seem very knowlegable on character meal costs...is it cheaper including tax and tips to order vouchers or use a 10% DVC discount? (Are the posted prices for the meals incl. tax and tip usually?)

Have a wonderful time! Looks like we may cross paths a few times.

 

[JadeDarkstar]

well if i got the ap i had wanted but dont see it happeneing it would of been 15% savings i would be looking at about same price but with out it i think voutchers are better

 

[dr&momto2boys]

Oops! How'd I do that? Double post.

Danauk,


I hope that you have a great flight, and visit to DL, I love England (just thought I would add that) and it is great that this will be your first visit! and hopefully the first of many.
Remember to get up from your seat on the airplane as much as possible to walk around, good for the circulation you know, and very important, but then, you probably are already aware of that, just want to make sure.

 

[JadeDarkstar]

I am trying to still do the princess but we may have to cancle it..but my dh wants to do storytellers and they have voutchers for that breakfast. for princess we have to have the cash on us and it might be 85 with tip and all

Oh we are well aware of long haul flying safety, we have made many trips across 'the pond' to visit your beautiful and friendly country (and shock, horror, not all involved Disney!!) Thanks for your concern, I will make sure to stretch!!
