Thanks

We will have a studio at AKV-Jambo House Club Level from Oct. 2-9. We are celebrating our 10th anniversary and I booked the Sunrise Safari. The only other ADRs I have are at Tony's and Captain's Grill. This is a more relaxed, take it easy trip for just the two of us. Tony's was our first dinner at WDW 10years ago, so it is kind of a tradition.

Oops, wrong thread!

You can do ADR on line now at the disney world web site under "where to eat" (the pulldown menu running along the top of the pic of the castle.

We did not have a problem getting all of our ADR's but I would do them now to be on the safe side

Thanks! So far we decided we didn't want to be pinned down to a specific park on a specific day so we only booked CRT and SOA luau

Just booked MNSSHP for Oct. 7th waaahhhoooooo

I'm sure everyone has seen that they are offering free dining again as long as you travel by Oct. 2. Unfortunately for me, I cannot get the week of Oct. 2-9 off so cannot take advantage of the dining plan unless we go earlier. But if we go earlier, we will miss out on the Food and Wine Festival. My husband would rather go during the Food and Wine Festival and pay for the dining plan. I think I would too.

Our 180 days opened last Saturday and my TA got everything we wanted at exactly the times/days we wanted!!!! He is awesome. Oh...he got BBB for us also at 4pm on the 24th Right before MNSSHP. He's a miracle, I never would have had the patience(or strength to stop hitting the snooze button) to work all those ADRs.

Lovin this thread! I got lost on the other october thread.. i think!!! We are staying at POP for DH and DD's first on site stay. We went last september and stayed at a DTD resort. After the bus fiasco.. spending so much time on them, that is, I said, this time we are staying on property. So POP it is. We got a Disney visa so we are hoping they will extend the fall dining.
Anywhoo, we are going to MNSSHP on October 24th which is dd's 4th b'day. We have ADRs for CRT at 5:15p on her b'day. We plan to eat at GF cafe at 9:30 for breakfast on her b'day.
We get in on the 21st and will do F! package at 3 pm at Mama Melrose's and HS. On the 22nd, we'll be in AK, and the 23rd is MK. We have lunch adr's at Tony's. During the day on the 24th we'll be in AK. The 25th is HS with lunch ADRS for Sci-FI. Tuesday is epcot with bkfst at Akershus and dinner at Le cellier. We aren't sure where we will be for wednesday and thus no adrs. Then thursday we come home. We are having bkfst at 1900 PF.
I am just super excited and glad to have found more people going on the dates we will be there.
Got my first stack of lime green miskey heads the other night. I only got 5. DH said, but there are only three of us..... he doesn't get it!
