***October 2012 Thread*** MNSSHP + Food & Wine - Does It Get Any Better?

[onnawufei]

Yep. That is why we get there at 3:45 so that we can enter the park right at 4pm. This is especially important if your costumes are related to characters that won't be available during the party. You can read more about our experience from last year's party here...

Oh wow, your costumes are great, and I loved the story about delivering the message to Buzz. I showed it to one of my friends (who isn't on the forum) and she loved it too.

We spent the entire day, from like 9am on, in costume at the Magic Kingdom the day we did MNSSHP. We got so many photos of the family in costume with characters. One fun one was Ursula meeting Ariel. Ariel was great, and the handler even "warned" her that Ursula was coming

That's fantastic! I'm all kinds of excited to get to take pictures with Chip and Dale while in costume. And I'm curious about the Ursula you mentioned. Ursula is my favorite female villain, but she isn't the easiest to dress as.

You guys have got me completely excited with the prospect of BOG opening early...

We just booked our trip to Disney!

We are so excited! It is going to be my husbands first trip and we are celebrating our third wedding anniversary.

We are both excited for MNSSHP and we have our costumes pick out already.

We are also hoping that BoG restaurant is open but are going to try for CRT and drop that if BoG opens.

We are staying at AoA and going October 26 to November 3! I can't wait to make dining reservations!

Hey everybody!!

We're headed to WDW October 20-27, staying at POFQ. It will be our first trip with our son, who will be 14 months. I'm so excited!

Glad I found this thread. I wish I had the time and energy to read all 113 previous pages! I requested to join the Facebook page too.

I'll be making my ADR's Monday morning, bright and early! I've changed my mind 10000 times but I think I've got them right, finally.

Welcome! My DH and I will be down there those exact dates at POFQ as well! I'm looking forward to making my ADR's on Monday, too. But I know myself too well to think that I'll keep them the same from now until the day we leave. I'm always second guessing myself and changing them lol but that's all part of the fun right? Now if both of us wish really hard maybe we can get free dining or some type of discount for our days

We're down there the same date same resort too! It's our first time at POFQ. Fingers crossed we all get the ADR's we want Monday morning.

 

[onnawufei]

Y'all are making me kind of wish we were staying at POFQ this year. We've stayed there the past three years, but DH really wanted to try something new this year. The only other one we've stayed at was Animal Kingdom Lodge the first year we went, so I guess trying something new isn't a bad idea.

 

[jennymac75]

Please add me to the mix, we are official. Oct 21 - 28, staying offsite at Wyndham BC. It will be me, DH, DS4, and my parents. DH and I havent been in 20 years and it will be DS4 first trip. My parents will be staying with us, but are planning non-Disney activities. I'm only planning 3 or 4 adrs and Pirates League. My first 180 isnt until 4/29 and I'm hoping the +10 rule doesn't hurt us too badly.

Would one of the resident experts like to review my park days? I used a combination of Touring Plans and Easy WDW to pick our days.

10/21 - Late afternoon arrival - Walmart, dinner at the hotel and Beaches and Cream.
10/22 - Epcot
10/23 - MK
10/24 - HS
10/25 - Rest day, DTD and TREX for dinner
10/26 - MK, Ohana for breakfast and Pirates League
10/27 - AK, Tusker House Lunch?
10/28 - Early afternoon flight, Chef Mickey's for breakfast

I love these boards and am soooo excited for this trip! The information on here is outstanding. Keep up the good work.

[3Leafs]

I so hope BOG is open when we all go. That would be so amazing.. We have LTT booked right now but I am so willing to switch.

We will be down for my daughter's 8th Birthday. I'm surprising her with the Mermaid makeover at The Pirates League. We are doing BBB in August so this will be a cool surprise. She wants to eat at Coral Reef for her "Birthday" Dinner. One of our favorite places!

Sure..We are going as the Red Queen and Mad Hatter (at least at the moment..I have attendancy to change my mind..) So needless to say we are going to try and get our pictures with them at the Halloween Party.
