I've been so busy with work and school I haven't had time to do my "this time next month" updates
So quickly, here they are:
On Dec 11 we have an 8:25 ADR for Tusker House so we can get in the park before it opens
We liked this place last time and it's a guaranteed way to see Donald, who is my husband's favorite character. Our number one goal on this day is to ride Expedition Everest, we missed it last time due to rain
We also want to do the Dinosaur ride and the Safari. We have a 2:30 lunc ADR at Yak + Yeti, which we loved last time and are very excited to go back to. We are also hoping to see the Jingle JUngle parade on this day. After leaving this park, we'll go back to CSR, clean up, and head over to the monorail resorts to check out their decorations before having dinner at CA Grill for the first time. We have a 9:30 ADR so we can hopefully see Wishes while were there
On Dec 12 we're going to spend the day at HS, and probably start the day with a pastry for breakfast. Our must do's here are TOT, TSM, and RRC. Would also be Star Tours, but its under refurb. DH is pretty bummed, but I keep telling him it will be for the better. I think Captain EO will be on our list as well, if it's still there. We're having weird meal times today so we could fit in all the places we wanted to go to in this park: 11:10 am at 50's Prime Time, 4:15 pm at Sci-Fi DIne-In (two favorites), and we're planning to walk over to the Yachtsman SH (a new one for us) for dinner. Is that within walking distance? Otherwise I'm sure we could hop on resort transportation to the YC/BC. Either before or after dinner we are going to need to see the Osbourne lights, too!
On Dec 13 we're waking up bright and early, renting a car, and driving to IOA to see WWOHP!
We're pretty excited, and if the Universal parks are anything like the Hollywood one in off-season, we should be able to see and do everything we want within 4 to 6 hours. We're planning on grabbing breakfast on the way there at Chick-Fil-A, we don't have them in Las Vegas, but we love them so much!
While at the park, we're hoping to eat at the 3 Broomsticks, but if the wait to crazy, we'll just play it by ear. After an exhilerating day at the park, we'll return to CSR for dinner at Maya Grill (another new one following our eat at your hotel once rule
), and maybe have a drink in the bar since it will still be somewhat early.
On Dec 14 we'll be returning to Universal, this time to the other park, Studios?
We'll again snag breakfast at Chick-Fil-A and play lunch by ear, maybe somewhere on the CityWalk. I hear they have pretty popular Mediteranean place, maybe since Cat Cora closed on us we'll go there for our fix
This night we'll be bumping into Daddy of Princesses and his entourage at the Aloha dinner show. This will be our first time here, and as I'm not very interested in traveling to Hawaii (not sure why, just not
) this probably all the Luau I'll ever get
. I'm planning to take advantage of the wine situation
and DH the beer
After this we'll be calling it a night.
Finally! On this day in one month, we will wake up early to return our rental car and have the shuttle take us to OKW for breakfast at Olivia's for the first time. DH is interested in the the Conch eggs benedict (i think thats what it was, the conch dish either way
) or the breakfast Cuban. I'm eyeing something sweeter
We'll explore a bit around here before going over to EPCOT for our first full day there, and our last full day in the parks. Our must do's are test track, mission space, spaceship earth, and soarin' (although I wish they'd get their own video, I feel like the other one should stay in Cali, but maybe that's my close to DLR bias
). We have our second most prized ADR
(after CA Grill) for lunch, Le Cellier. We've never been here and are super excited! For dinner, we are trying Tutto Italia and we have the CP package with that! So psyched! In between all this eating we are hoping to get in as many Fab Four shows as we can (they change every hour, progressing through the Beatles history), DH is a huge fan and that was a promise made to get him back here
I also want to squeeze in the Behind the Seeds Tour if we have time, I love the ride and I'd love to take it a little further. We'd also like to fit in some of the Christmas storytellers, if we can. Luckily we will have that very first night to hear some of them, too, so we won't feel so rushed this day, hopefully....
What will you be doing in the parks one month from today?
the shirts!!!!
. I think my old tags have a hologram.
