Sssh....don't tell anyone...we're cheating on CSR -- Contest -- Days 6 & 7--#3516

[englishrose47]

Well, I have my "final" list ready for our ADR making day (a week from Tuesday). I'm pretty well set on these and don't anticipate any changes (although I've said that before). So here's the list:

Friday (September 23), dinner at Fulton's (pay out of pocket)
Saturday (September 24) breakfast at Boma, late lunch at Earl of Sandwich (both out of pocket)

Sunday, September 25) (and now on the dining plan) -- breakfast at the Crystal Palace at 8:05 a.m. with MaryAz and all of her family and dinner at The Plaza

Monday, September 26 lunch at Yak & Yeti

Tuesday, September 27 we are just doing counter service for all of our meals

Wednesday, September 28 early lunch at Sci Fi. We are debating doing dinner at Grand Floridian Cafe or Captain's Grill (if we do decide to do one of these, then we will pay for Plaza out of pocket on Sunday)

Thursday, September 29 is our departure morning for Marco Island and we will have breakfast at Kona before the three hour drive and pay out of pocket

Plans sound great!!! I am planning on a Solo or an adult with me trip next year and my ressies will be based on ME not family and I have so many restaurants I want to try!!!!

 

[SoonerGirl]

Breakfast at the Crystal Palace with Mary's family will be so much fun! Have some puffed french toast for me

 

[PirateKate]

All your ADRs sound great! I'm reading them all thinking, ooh, that sounds good, we should go there. Sometimes I think the most exciting part of planning a trip is making ADRs.

Thanks, Rosie. We've missed not being at Yak & Yeti the last two years so that made us change plans so we could fit it in.

It's going to be so much fun, Michelle. Cayley didn't like Tigger last year, but now she does so we are going to have a blast.

Kate, we try to do at least one new restaurant every year. This year we're managing two -- Kona (which we were supposed to do last year but were too tired to get up that early) and Earl of Sandwich. I can't wait to try them both.

If nothing can tempt Todd for a weekend at WDW park free this food line up would do it

Kath, you need to work him over when you get here...make him do it! PLEASE???

3 weeks 3 weeks woo hoo for 3 weeks

 

[Queenofallthings]

Great line up Kathy! GFC is a hidden gem IMO...I really enjoyed the 2 meals we had there! You are going to have so much fun with Mary and her family at CP...wish we could be there

 

[pinkxray]

Looks like you have a great food line up

 

[Poolrat]

Lots of yummy food planned.

 

[All7OfUs]

I really like your final Dining choices. I think you'll really like Y&Y! I sure did! I can't wait for your Fultons review. I've wanted to eat there for ages, but haven't yet.

Mary, that meal is one of the two we are most looking forward to.

Oh, sweetie, I will be turning on my charms for Todd in three weeks, believe me. Just think, it would be like seeing each other three times this year. First in a little over three weeks, then a couple of days at Disney and then a week later in Marco.

Great line up Kathy! GFC is a hidden gem IMO...I really enjoyed the 2 meals we had there! You are going to have so much fun with Mary and her family at CP...wish we could be there

GFC has the edge right now, Queen. I can't wait to have breakfast with Cayley and Avery (and Jeff, Mary and Grandma and Grandpa too of course).

Looks like you have a great food line up

Thank you, Diane. I'm happy with the choices.

Lots of yummy food planned.

And lots of calories no doubt. Oh well, I'll just sweat it off.

Liesa, I'm glad you liked Yak & Yeti; we ate there three years ago and have been itching to go back. We've been to Fulton's a number of times (it is the first restaurant at Disney Mark ever took me too); we love it there...you must try it next time.

 

[tinacaplan]

I just wanted to say that we loved The Plaza. It was one of our best meals of the trip! I know why you like it so much.

 

[KatMark]

I could have sworn I did an update on our mini-trip. So I'm either not seeing it and should go find my bifocals or I'm losing my mind (probably a little bit of both).

So we are up early on Monday and we drive to Melbourne to see a customer there. After that, we will go to Starbucks for my afternoon delight and then check into the hotel so we can have some pool time. Not sure where we will have to dinner...but checked the local restaurants and there are LOTS of good choices. Maybe Italian this night? Or steak?

Tuesday, April 5, up early and driving to Cocoa Beach for another customer. From there we will drive to Jupiter to see a customer and then checking into hotel in Coral Springs. I found a reallly cool looking restaurant there that we are going to eat at called Big Bear Brewing and that's where we will have dinner.

Wednesday, April 6, we have a customer to see in the morning and if they are open during the day hours, we may stop and play mini golf on our way to Naples for the best part of our trip.

More to come later.

Disney food has calories???


Nope that can't be right - Disney food has ZERO calories.

I'm so glad you loved it, Tina. It really is a hidden gem (although I think it is becoming more and more popular).

Pat, I never knew. Thank you so much. No worries now.

 

[Cafeen]

Whew, I was about 6 or 7 pages behind again...

Great sounding plans for the Apr trip. I actually prefer to fly out early as well, but it's not due to fear of flying. I just like getting to where I'm going at a reasonable hour. With the airport about 5 minutes down the road from me, it makes 6am flights not that bad though (in fact, my flight in Sept is at 6am).

I've actually been to Silver Springs as well, but it also was around 20 something years ago. (Man, I feel like I'm getting old now). I'd love to go back again at some point, but not in the cards just yet.

Like the food list too for Sept. I've been wanting to try Yak and Yeti, but I just can't fit it in .

Glad to hear everyone is doing better .

 

[that's nice]

Hey Kathy!!!!!

Just stoping in to say hi! I have a few pages to catch up on...

 

[Stefy]

Hey Kathy Sorry I've been MIA, I got waaaaaaaay behind and found a little difficult to catch up, but am all caught up now

First off, I backtracked and started from the beginning again and I notice that our dates cross and got all giddy with excitement, do you have time to meet up with me and Dave? Am thinking cocktails at the Tambu Lounge

Wowee to all those snow pics, you guys got hit bad. Hope its all cleared up and getting back to normal. Winter has been so harsh and being a stickler, its like it doesn't want to leave and let Spring take over

Gosh I hope your roof issues are starting to go away, nothing worse than having a roof problems in the Winter.

Sorry to hear about what happened with your brother, but it sounds like he is doing really well now which is wonderful to hear

Woo Hoo for the April trip, bet you can't wait to catch up with Nicki Where you are staying looks lovely as well

Your final ADR list looks great and I hope you get the times you want, when does your ADR window open up? Ours is a week today and I can't wait to get them booked

Now I am officially up to date and promise not to get so far behind again
