Pickle part II

[LuvvsMickey]

Howdy folks! This is a continuation of a thread that was recently closed for going off topic. Off topic 'round here?! No way!! The topic started out with me being in a pickle trying to decide between three resorts which ended up with me booking a split stay at two totally different resorts! Ya, I have decision making issues. Sigh. Then another pickle popped up about dining plan or not to dining plan. I leave in two weeks and still don't have a clue. I've got some pile of ressies made though.

This thread is also being started to plan a possible girls only trip with some friends that have met on the DIS boards. They should be showing up soon. Gee... I hope they show up and don't leave me here talking all by muhself.

Feel free to jump in and post. We are a crazy bunch and are here to have some good laughs and share our love for everything Mickey. We can do that here, right?

Oh. My name is Tracy and yes, I am crazy.

 

[Minnie&Nana]

Christine, signing on!!! Tracy, I am SOO happy you started the Pickle II thread!

14 days and you'll be havin' fun with Mickey & Minnie (I am so jealous). Let's finish your dining plans.

I'll take on the planning of the possible Girls Trip and will get to asking about possible times once our friends have joined us - Janet will not be back until Sunday, but I might call her.

Let the fun continue!!!

(p.s. thunderstorm here, so may have to sign off for a bit)

Here I am. I won't leave you alone...I promised you I would ALWAYS be here. So, where are we with the dining ressies? We need an updated list because I'm so lost with what you made, wanted to make, couldn't make, etc. And I still LOVE the idea of a girls only trip.

 

[KatMark]

Oops...forgot to list my name...although I think everyone knows it -- Kathy. And did I tell you I am pulling my hair out starting this new CSR FAQ Thread--it is a LOT of work.

 

[LuvvsMickey]

Phew. Ya'll didn't leave me hanging.

So uh, dining ressies you ask? One sec.

 

[Minnie&Nana]

We're waitin'......

Don't do that! You might end up wearing the coveted Dumbo, er, Eeyore ears!!

The way I feel with this new thread I think I AM DUMBO! And we're waiting....patiently...NOT.

Okay, I'm running to Starbucks--I need my Frappucino fix. I'll be back in 15 minutes! I hope by then those dining ADR's are posted.

 

[LuvvsMickey]

Okay. Here's muh ressies.

Raglan Road - dinner
Sci-Fi - lunch
50's Primetime - dinner
Chef Mickeys - breakfast
Narcoossees (twice) - dinner
Kona (three times) - breakfast
Coral Reef - lunch
Le Cellier - dinner
'Ohanas - breakfast. I will get that darned dinner ressie if it kills me!!
Crystal Palace - lunch
Flying Fish - dinner
Planet Hollywood - lunch and probably Fultons' for supper just because
Hoop dee doo is a maybe...

 

[Minnie&Nana]

Fabulous list!!!!

Have you read the reviews of Raglan Road? Some recent ones are not so great, but if it is a place you really want to try then I say go for it..after all, everyone has a different experience!

As odd as it seems, I enjoyed Ohana's much more for breakfast than dinner. Did not like the dinner food so much, but could eat all the breakfast food..and it was quieter. At dinner all the kidlets were playing games and they had them going all through the dining room...I preferred a quieter meal..and my friend is not fond of children so she never smiled once!!!

You will have so much fun, Tracy!!!

Hi Pickles!
I'm checking in!!!! Crazy as ever!!!
Thanks for re-starting us here!!!
Kathy, good luck with the new thread...the only things I know about CSR I've learned from you, but If I can be of any assistance, let me know!

Tracy, Awesome ADR's
I LOVE Kona too...3x!!! Wow! We had one of our best lunches there...bck before the dining plan...walked in and got a table...DELICIOUS. I love it for breakfast too! yummy coffee and the macadamia nut pancakes are to die for!
Everyone raves about Tonga Toast too, but I'm not a banana fan.

Did you decide to keep the QSDP for CSR and do Deluxe at Poly? or have those plans changed?

It was my BFF who told us about it actually. They ate there in May and loved it. We are only going in honour of Mark's foster father who was from Ireland.

I don't have any plans.

The decision is to be made tonight! Yay. But, yes, that is probably what I am going to go with unless I knock of some ressies and just go basic dining for the entire 10 days.

that is really cool. I was looking at the menu for there the other day, and it looks pretty good.
My heart is still set on Lecellier, but if I can't get it, I'm looking for backups in the Epcot area.

I don't have any plans.

I'm shocked you haven't made up your mind yet. (since there is no super sarcastic smiley, those will have to do)

 

[LuvvsMickey]

I know, I am pathetic. *hangs head in shame*

I get to go to Rotten Ronnies, er, McDonald's with the kidlets now. Don't be jealous!! Hopefully they will let me come back home in an hour. Hopefully.

That is so sweet! I am sure you will enjoy it!

Have fun at MickeyD's!!

Kathy, you are going to be fabulous with the new CSR thread - absolutely without a doubt, it will be one of the best faq threads on the DIS!!!

You know I'm here if I can help in any way. Be sure to post the link here when it is up and running so we can all post asap!!

Tonight? I believe, if my pickle mind is not totally gone, you said that last week.

You poor thing. I hate Rotten Ronnies!

I will post a link when we get it up. I can't believe the amount of work it takes to do those darn things. Thankfully, a former Diser has allowed me to copy a lot of his stuff.

No...you are NOT!

I think you are correct. Although my Pickle mind is going, so
