Okay thank you! I was arguing with my fiance because he swares he read that you can!

There was talk that when they were revamping the system that it would be updated to include being able to make ADRs online, but I haven't heard anything about it in a while. I'm not even sure how I would feel about it, if it was an option. On one hand, I think it would be easier for me but on the other hand, it would be easier for everyone else too so I think restaurants would book up even faster than they are now and some people may make reservations to to have them and then decide once they get there if they want to go to them or not. Maybe if you had to put down a cc number to hold the reservation and you get charged if you don't cancel...that's the only way I can see it working.

I completely agree. I said the same thing. I know that I always make sure I cancel my ressies if I cant make it but I cant say everyone does the same....

I updated you! Play and Dine is at Hollywood and Vine, right? Don't worry about your Le Cellier time...you'll be dining with Jesi!! I love seeing when people are going to be at the same places!

Yep, it's at Hollywood & Vine! I'm thinking the time @ Le Cellier will be fine anyway. We'll be ordering steaks, so by the time we get our food it will be later right? Plus I did see afterwards that I'll be there w/ Jesi.

Jesi where are you???

We're new to this site. Our very first post. I tried to set-up a countdown calendar and I'm unsure if I was successful. My wife and I with daughter 13 Son 11 are going in July. We can't wait. My daughter's been reading up and is starting to catch up to my Disney knowledge. Whoo-hoo. She'll be the one most likely posting after this note.

Welcome to our thread!! I added your ADRs onto the master list on the top of page 67!

Jesi where are you???

It is so neat to see someone dining at the same time and place as me!! I need the early time though...trying to keep the baby as close to his normal eating time as possible. Guess I will see you there :

If anyone is in a Fridge/Stroller Swap or PhotoPass Share, you might want to take a look at the Budget Board.

New rules went into effect today:

It has always been a rule on the DIS that anything involving money changing hands between members was not permitted on the boards. With that in mind, a decision has been made to end all swaps and shares that include money passing between DISers.

What does this mean?

*Beginning today, all Photopass shares are over on the DIS. No new Photopass shares can be started.

*Threads for existing Photopass shares will be locked on Friday of this week. Any new threads will be deleted beginning today.

*Fridge and stroller swaps that are free can continue. However, if a refrigerator/stroller is lost or damaged, the swap leader cannot collect money from members to replace the lost/damaged item. Swaps may continue if an item is donated for the use of subsequent share members.

*No new fridge or stroller swaps will be permitted to start unless the fridge/stroller is a donated item and the swap is free to all participants.

*Any fridge or stroller swap that is not free to new members will be closed on Friday of this week. This will allow those leaders of swaps that are currently collecting money to decide whether they are willing/able to offer their swap for free. On Friday, any swap threads that are not free will be locked and their links will be removed from the sticky threads.

I actually don't mind the earlier time. DH wanted a later time, but oh well! Will that be your babies first steak? Yum! haha I'll definitely try to find you to say hi. I hear it's a smaller place, so might not be too difficult to do!

New rules went into effect today:

I'm hosting a photopass share, but it really doesn't effect this share since everyone's in and paid already. I'll just have to move it to e-mail or phone contacts now. I do feel bad for those that don't have one set up yet though because I think they're great! I'm also in a stroller swap and am worried about that!

I just noticed that my ADR for Le Ceiller is listed on the worng day. That one is supposed to be on July 5, not July 4. No biggie, but I just thought I would mention it.

I have to ask. Have you been to Tony's before? I'm a bit nervous since I heard a lot of people complain about it. So I was thinking of maybe cancelling.

Actually the baby will have food brought in I still can't get my five year old to try steak. I think my SD will be all over that though and order the most expensive thing on the menu

I've never been to Tony's. Last year was really my first time experiencing dining except for Chef Mickey's when I was about 13! And last year we did all character breakfasts. I've seen several good reviews about Tony's lately. And really I wanted a little change from some of the other adr's...and the Lady & The Tramp theming appeals to me! I'm hoping we like it!

I figured the baby will be eating out of jars for the most part! haha, although I do know some people that have fed their babies steak at 9 mos! I'm surprised your 5 yr old doesn't want steak, my 4 year old and the younger one LOVES it! It will be nice to endulge on the dining plan though!
