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

[Queenofallthings]

Fingers crossed your get that ressie at Cape May! We're doing it for the first time in August and I can't wait!

 

[Minnie&Nana]

We are up to Wednesday, September 28 (our second to last day at Disney...although Mark doesn't know that yet ).

I will then pack after swimming with Mark thinking we are going to Kona the next morning and then leaving.

I just love the surprise you are saving for Romeo! You know we'll all be hear waiting to hear his reaction!

 

[pinkxray]

Your plans look great I vote to switch to 50's. Our last 2 meals at MM weren't very good. We had a long wait at 50's last year but it was right after the parade at SWW. Hopefully it isn't always like that. I enjoyed the food and Nicki's review makes me want to go back.

 

[PirateKate]

I'm glad you all will get to ride Tower of Terror this year. That's one of my favorites. Do you look for the "Evil tower you are doomed" letters? They seem to be coming and going for the past couple years.

 

[OhioDisneyLover]

Hoping that you get the Cape May ressie.

We loved Mama Melrose last year. It was fantastic! We did 50's the year before and it was good too...just not as good as I remember.

Joe and I both love TSMM, although I lose every freaking time....my MOTHER even beats me!

 

[tinacaplan]

I am just picturing ALL of us running the show at Disney! Now that would be something!

You are so right, Karin!

Hmm...yes, Nicki did convince me to make an ADR at 50's...so maybe that will be better? Both places sound good to me!

 

[All7OfUs]

That's GREAT Romeo gets to ride my favorite ride this year!!! WOOT!!

I've not been to any of the restaurants in discussion, but hope you'll get just what you want, Kathy!

PERFECTION!!!!

Lord help the men if we ran Disney World.

Your plans sound great for Wed. We plan to hit DS too because the crowd calender has it as a light day and we want to ride TSM at least three times. Too bad my DS isn't quite old enough to be the FP runner because he's very quick and small enough that he can easily dodge between people. This will also be our first time riding TOT and I want to ride the new Star Tours. I hope the crowds are light enough to hit most of the park in one day.

Would you believe we have NEVER looked at a crowd calendar and we have never had an issue with crowds. We will either meet you at the pool one day or we'll plan a meet spot at the Studios. We are anxious for the new Star Tours too.

Fingers crossed your get that ressie at Cape May! We're doing it for the first time in August and I can't wait!

The earliest I could get is 7:35; I'll keep trying though.

I just love the surprise you are saving for Romeo! You know we'll all be hear waiting to hear his reaction!

If I can only keep my big mouth closed.

Well, after Mark saw a dessert on a thread, I may have to.

Kate, this is one of the highlights of my trip -- getting to ride TOT this year (and getting to ride Space Mountain with Miss Avery).

Hoping that you get the Cape May ressie.

Joe and I both love TSMM, although I lose every freaking time....my MOTHER even beats me!

I lose at TSMM AND Buzz -- Mark cheats.

Hmm...yes, Nicki did convince me to make an ADR at 50's...so maybe that will be better? Both places sound good to me!

50's Prime Time looks like it will be the choice if I can get an ADR (so far no luck).

That's GREAT Romeo gets to ride my favorite ride this year!!! WOOT!!

I've not been to any of the restaurants in discussion, but hope you'll get just what you want, Kathy!

Isn't it great? I think he will skip Rock & Roll Roller Coaster as it is a little too much jerking, plus I absolutely REFUSE to ride it.

 

[Moira222]

Your plans sound like fun! We have not eaten at most of the place you've mentioned for your last few days...funny there are just SO many to pick from..hard to think there can be no overlap!

Is there really a roped drop "show" at DHS? We managed to arrive only at AK right at 8 am for EMH and there was nothing going on. I finally asked at the front desk one day and the girl told me that only MK does a rope drop on EMH -am days only.

I found it hard to believe that the cast members didn't have as much info as DIS members!

 

[lovethattink]

Kathy, We ate at 50's PTC yesterday for lunch. It exceeded our expectations! Anakin really wanted to eat there! He didn't seem to mind the 30 minute wait after checking in. I'll be writing about it later. DH and I were ready to say forget it after waiting 15 minutes and head to ABC Comissary, but Anakin insisted we stay, and we are so glad we did! I hope it works out for you as well!

 

[mommy2mrb]

love you new plans! haven't eaten at 50's yet, but we love Sci=-Fi and Mama's!
we did eat at Flame Tree BBQ was very yummy, had Y &Y adr's but changed our plans around abit!
so happy you get some extra time in the parks and are surprising Mark with it!

 

[Stefy]

Latest plans sound fab Hope you get to make it to Yak & Yeti

 

[aprilisis]

Your plans sound great! I hope you can get that reservation for Cape May Cafe. I've had good luck at Mama Melrose, I guess. I have read about a lot of bad experiences there, but I've always had good food there. I love 50's Prime Time, though- that is one of my favorites!

 

[Lidian]

Dad's Brownie Sundae calls to you Kathy ....

Don't resist the sundae!

Besides, the food there was some of the best we've had. If only we had themed service, I would easily state it was my personal favorite. It is a must do for our next trip ... along with Wolfgang Puck (just wait until I post those food pics).

 

[Shannon84]

Love the TSM pic with the glasses We love TSM..I have never been through the stand by line..so next trip I am grabbing fastpasses and riding standby!!

 

[marvali]

Love the updated plans; at least those I have skimmed through and read so far! Love FTBBQ! Hope you get the ressie at 50s PT! A favorite for our family. I have reviews coming that include Cape May AND Yak & Yeti! (and yes, I should get them posted before you leave on your trip!!!......hopefully)

 

[MEK]

That's GREAT Romeo gets to ride my favorite ride this year!!! WOOT!!

Seriously, that is so great that he can ride this year! Love all the Day 5 plans and the picture of Romeo in his 3D's.

 

[MaryAz]

Hey, I know those girls I will try and call and see if I have luck adding you guys that way. Ack, TOT-did it once and it was enough. Cayley really wants us to ride it "as a family" though....Avery is begging me to add the Plaza in

I don't remember if there was a "show" at DHS or not. I know we've never seen one for EMH's. I think the front desk was wrong as I've seen the "show" at the MK on non-EMH days.

I'll be watching for your review. I haven't found anything open yet but I won't give up.

I'm looking forward to surprising him. If I can win a lotto before hand, I may take him on the Wild Trek too.

Latest plans sound fab Hope you get to make it to Yak & Yeti

Thanks, Stefy.

I hope we get Cape May too. See, we've never had bad luck at Mama Melrose either.

You are soooooooooo mean. I haven't eaten all day (Mark is grilling now) and I'm drooling on the picture.

Love the TSM pic with the glasses We love TSM..I have never been through the stand by line..so next trip I am grabbing fastpasses and riding standby!!

We've done standby most of the times we've ridden it.

Well, hello stranger. Welcome back....you have been missed. The question is will it be posted before your next trip in 18 days?

Seriously, that is so great that he can ride this year! Love all the Day 5 plans and the picture of Romeo in his 3D's.

Thanks, MaryEllen.

Well, Mark said he'll take Avery on Rock & Roll (I donh'at like it), and I'll take Cayley on TOT if we are at DHS on the same day. And Mark is not doing Space Mountain so I'm going to get fast passes using his and my ticket and I promised Miss Avery I would ride with her this year.

Let em know what happens with Cape May. We're doing Plaza on our new departure day.

 

[mommy2mrb]

Oh I hope you can do the Wild Africa Trek, it is more than worth the money IMHO!!!!
