Good afternoon everyone.

Good Afternoon - did you have fun with your parents yesterday?

 

[Danauk]

Well so much for snow, we had a flew flakes for 30 minutes and now it has all melted! It has just started snowing again but nothing much. My bunnies are out hopping around in the back garden. The brown and grey ones look like they have a bad case of dandruff!!

Good Afternoon - did you have fun with your parents yesterday?

Yes thanks. Pete spent the afternoon with my dad fixing his computer so my mum and I went shopping! I bought my nephew his 1st birthday present from the Disney store of course!! I handed my shareholders card over to get my discount and the lady asked what it was. She said she knew they got you a discount but had never actually been told what it was or how to get them. So I had to explain to her.

Brainwashing him early then

The first time I went to see him days after he was born my SIL said to him, "This is your auntie Karen. One day in a few years time she will take you to Disneyland to see Mickey Mouse! You are going to learn all about Disney from her!!"

Thinking about celebrations at Disney, I am quite excited today. I have been racking my brains for ages about what to get our best friends for their 10th wedding anniversary. We want to get them something really special as for our 10th anniversary in the summer they used their DVC points for us to stay at the Grand Californian in Disneyland with a theme park view (think theme park view at the Disneyland hotel for 5 nights!) And this morning it fianlly dawned on me what we can do. We are going to WDW with them 6 weeks after their anniversary, so we are going to book a Wishes cruise for us. Basically you hire a boat to drive out into Bay Lake before Wishes and watch the fireworks from there. They pipe the music in and you contact the private dining from the hotel you launch from to arrange for your dinner to be served whilst on the lake. So the boat captain acts as your butler. So we are going to book to have a meal beforehand at either the Grand Floridian or the Wilderness lodge and then have desert and champagne on the boat during the fireworks. Do you think they would like this and do you think I can arrange this without them knowing!!

That sounds lovely Karen were planning on doing this on our wedding night

 

[Danauk]

I was thinking we could book a meal at Artists Point at the Wilderness Lodge first. They stayed at the Wilderness Lodge on their honeymoon and it was the 1st restaurant they took us to on our 1st trip to WDW.

 

[Danauk]

OK, I killed chat again, sorry!!

 

[Dianetigger]

Afternoon everyone, looks like you've been busy chatting up a storm again!
Not here for long, heading out in an hour to ice hockey, we've had a few flakes of snow but nothing more ... yet!!

You havent killed the chat I'm trying to clean while look at disney resort photos at the same time!

I really want to try artiste point it looks lovely, I think we will wait till our honeymoon, and do deluxe dining and try some more signerture restaurants. Were going to just do one this trip - Citricos.

I think you can book the boats 90 days before?

 

[Danauk]

I love Artists Point and Citricos, very nice! My other favourites are the California Grill and the Yachtsmans Steakhouse. We are going to eat at Victoria and Alberts next trip which should be amazing. Our friends have eaten there before and loved it. From what I have read the boats can be booked 90 days before hand but you have to ring up at 7am on the dot Florida time to book it for the day you want!!
