I'm trying to decide if we want to get park hoppers or not.

They really jack up the price of the ticket when you get hoppers , I don't do hoppers anymore. One park per day is fine with me, If your going twice this year it may be worth it to get AP's, it depends for how long your going. On AP's you get resort discounts and other perks. I think I heard the price of park tickets are going up in August, you could get something like a 14 day pass that never expires and it will be good forever, it's like an investment because you know the park tickets will keep going up

Did you get it? Are you going to Disney twice, am I reading your siggy right Is that dining really free

Yes we did. The dining plan that is free includes 1 table service, 1 counter service and 1 snack per person per night of the stay. Between the 3 of us we will have 18 TS, 18 CS and 18 S. We are trying to decide where to eat our TS at.

We are going twice. DH came home one day and said that he could not wait until Sept so we are going next weekend.

We are only doing 1 day a the park this time and we got free park hopper and fun (DisneyQuest and a waterpark). I used a code for it.

We will either do 3 or 4 days in the park. We aren't going to do the park hopper. It would cost $712 for 3 day ticket with park hopper. A 4 day ticket is $602. It's actually cheaper to get a 10 day ticket than to get a 3 day park hopper.

That is a good deal. Where were you thinking for the TS? Have you looked at the menus yet?

I'm good. The kids are still

We love the van. It drives great. I think that we are going to take it to Disney with us.

That's why I don't like hoppers.

Besides which it's easier not to run from park to park, the travel time alone takes a big chuck out of your day. If you see everything in the park, you can go back to your resort and sit by the pool . Where are you staying?

That would be great, especially with the tape player so they will be entertained on the trip down

Hi gals.

Gio: I was reeled in by your Indiana Jones smiley. lol! I remember a long time ago, you posted a bunch for me.

 

[truedisneyfan]

Pop Century both times. For now on when we go to MK we will take the bus. Otherwise we park, walk to the monorail, ride the monorail, walk down the ramp. With the bus they drop you off right in front of MK. In the past we drive everywhere.

 

[GIOny]

E, how are you? It's been along time. I can't believe you found us, they keep moving us

I remember that about the Indiana Jones smilies

He has a movie coming out soon

Yes because DS can use his headphones and we can listen to the radio. This will be the first time DD will be facing forward so she can watch it to. She just won't be able to listen to it, but she doesn't care. They will sleep probably the whole time since we are driving in the middle of night. We usually bring the portable DVD player for road trips.

Hey How are you today?

We think it's easier just to drive everywhere except MK because of how long it actual takes to get there from your car.

I have one of those portable DVD players, I it. So were you thinking of a character meal for your TS? Are you 180 days out yet? The only thing I can tell you is that from what I've heard (podcasts) and read (on forums) about the free dining is that you have to make your dining reservations as soon as your 180 days from your first night there because everything books up really fast.

It's already past. We usually do Chef Mickey's for Breakfast or dinner.

I am making a list of the places that we all will like. I should be able to finish that today and call later day.

 

[GIOny]

We are going to AKL to their counter service for their pizza on my birthday. I the pizza. This is the one place that is a must due every trip.

I have never eaten here. Where in AK is it? I went to Yak and Yeti last time, it was really good, I also like the Flame Tree BarBcue in AK. What a great way to spend your birthday

 

[truedisneyfan]

We might try Crystal Palace for breakfast.
