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

[Valley Twin]

Howdy everyone. Figured I'd jump into this group. DH and I will be at Pop the week of 10/21. Driving down from Philly so we don't have to rent a car or rely on Disney Transport for those early breakfasts before EMH.

100 days left!

Hi all! We will be at Pop. 10/18 - 10/25! This will be our first visit to Pop and I am really excited to try it. Is there a list of who all is where and when anywhere in this thread? I haven't had a chance to read through all of it yet.

I just asked to join the FB group.

I need your opinions please! We are trying to decide between Friday night 10/5 MNSSHP or Friday (day) 10/5 Food and Wine at Epcot. I know the crowds will be bad at both, but which one do you think will be the most crowded? TIA

We are too. We don't have our costumes yet, but when we do, I'll post them.

I am on hold waiting to make ressies on the 16th! The hold time is crazy! I hope they aren't booked!

I waited about 10 minutes and was able to get reservations, although she did say party nights in October are pretty full.

They were booked for the 16th. :-( Maybe I can talk DS not to be a pirate. I am sure his pirate costume will look pretty lame next to all the Pirate League Pirates.

I've been working on putting together my costume for MNSSHP.

The only thing I bought was the skirt, $20 from Fossil. The shirt I already had. I bought it clearance at Old Navy last year for $3. Pirate hat is garage sale. Scarf was a gift. Gun is DS, I'm hoping to get my own for cheap. I want to tie a black or purple crown royal bag to the sash and fill it with gold and silver Mardi Gras doubloons. I could only find gold crown bags for the picture though. I know we have some black or purple ones around here somewhere. I will get black knee high socks to give it the high black boot look. I will wear sneakers at Disney though. I plan to add big hoop earrings and maybe some dangly bracelets??

How cute! I can't wait to go one day once I have kids to do fun coordinated costumes with them. The Toy Story costumes in your sig. are adorable as well

DH and I booked a room at the Dolphin over Columbus Day weekend (4-9th) for $188/night with a AAA rate. Might be worth looking into. We bought a AAA membership and it paid for itself with the room discount.

thanks for the tip! we already have an AAA membership, but i don't think we can get a discounted room since we're doing the free dining promo.
