Trip Report 'Once Upon a Dream' PTR - May 2014, Hotel New York

[dhidra]

Thankfully the boys arent fussy, but buffets would still suit us better *** they're quicker and we don't have to pay for DS2!

I've never been to RFC before, I'm just planning on going *** I think the boys would like the theming And eating in the village just before we leave for the airport will suit us.

 

[dhidra]

Meal plan is probably more like this now:

Sunday
Inventions Brunch
Dinner: Annette's or Steakhouse or Manhattan Restaurant

Monday
Lunch: Restaurant des Stars or Blue Lagoon (depending on which park we're in!
Dinner: Auberge De Cendrillion

Tuesday (DS2's birthday)
Lunch: Cafe Mickey
Dinner: Buffalo Bills

Wednesday
Lunch: Restaurant des Stars or Blue Lagoon
Dinner: Inventions

Thursday
Lunch: Counter Service
Dinner: Rainforest Cafe

RFC is fab! Lovely food and kids love the theming!

Will Auberge be open for dinner? It has only ever been lunch when we have been there?

Will Auberge be open for dinner? It has only ever been lunch when we have been there?

I won't know for sure until closer to the time, but as far as I know it is open for dinner when the park is open late. Closing time is 22:30 when we're there.

It would suit us better for dinner as DS2 won't get a meal there. I can fill him up at lunchtime if we go there for dinner.

My mam got me these Eeyore PJs for the trip

I went rooting in the wardrobes and found loads of Disney T Shirts for DS2. DS1 has none that fit anymore so I think a bit more shopping is in order! I'd love to get them matching T Shirts aswell.

 

[ILOVEDLP]

Cute pjs
Matching shirts I don't do that honest
Reading along great plans xx

I had a lovely French lady on the phone, who kept saying 'Alors'
She said I was a pleasure to deal with because I had everything planned
She wasn't 100% certain that the characters would be present at Inventions for midweek lunch, but ill just swap it with Blue Lagoon if they're not.

I can't believe I have ADRs made before getting a passport for DS2! :-O I MUST do that at the weekend. It's a bit of a nuisance as we all have to go to the Police station together to sort it out. :-/

We got my nieces & nephews back in 2 weeks - don't forget the long birth cert!

No characters at inventions for lunch as far as I know. Almost down to 50 sleeps! Need to do ADRs myself.

 

[dhidra]

There's characters at lunch at the moment, until 8th may. after that is not confirmed :-/

 

[dhidra]

Are you making ADRs soon Kizzy?

 

[kizzabel]

Are you making ADRs soon Kizzy?

Oh cool! Must keep it in mind. Real soon I think early next week. Looks like Cali Grill, RFC, La Cantina and maybe King Ludwig's or Annette's. To be changed at least 12 times in the meantime

 

[Ms Poppins]

Lovely plans you've got, and some great meal choices too

I'm sure you'll love HNY - it's my favourite place

 

[dhidra]

Thanks! I keep dreaming about winning the lotto a d staying at DLH but it will be nice to visit HNY as well.

I've been doing a spot of pre trip shopping and u thought I'd share my haul.
I went to the Disney Store in Dublin and was quite restrained!



I've so picked up a few bits for myself.





I kept changing my mind about autograph books but in the end I ordered these on eBay, as they have space for 50 autographs and come with a matching bag.






I also ordered lanyards for them. I think they're a bit young for pin trading yet but I'll buy them one or two pins on this trip and then maybe they can start trading on the next trip.






I'm getting a bit carried away!

 

[MickeysFavouriteGirl]

Lovely bits! I love pre-DLP shopping

 

[HFJohnson]

Great purchases. I'm going to get myself to the Disney store before we go!

 

[kizzabel]

Lovely bits and bobs you've picked up. I have my Bambi pjs and nighties in the case too! And the Mickey tees are deadly!

DD has been pin trading with CMs - "Excuse me, would you like to swap" - since she was 2 1/2! lol Go for it!
