The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 30

[bear74]

I think its 18hrs for us. My cousin if she goes can't do a car ride for that long she has had multiple back surgeries.

Sounds good.

I have been thinking about our trip. Trying to keep my mind off these irritating irregular contractions. I think I will make one for Olivia. I am debating on if I should make one for Virginia she will be 22 months, and for my nephew if we get to take him he will be 5. My Cousin is thinking about going with us her girls will be 11 and 8.

I know I will make my girls shirts, probably make my nephew shirts if he goes. Not sure if my cousin and her family will want to wear matching shirts or not.

I will give Olivia her book as a birthday present unless I make Virginia and Ryan one then it will be Christmas presents next year.

I think I will make all 3 Olivia, Ryan and Virginia passports for Epcot.

what do you all think?

 

[Mommy2EmMoLu]

About 14hrs. We plan to leave on Thursday, late afternoon. Drive til we're tired, get a room. Then wake up shower and continue on.

how long is the drive for you?

 

[Pooh67_68]

Yes my ornament person is still here.

Hmmm. I guess that means that your ornament person is still here, since we've all pretty much agreed that no one could recap all of this! Good to know!

 

[Pooh67_68]

So I was just lamenting that I didn't know what kind of ornament I was going to get Terra this year. There aren't any Hallmark Disney ornaments that are quite right and we aren't going to WDW to get one there like I usually do. So, I went looking for something and came across this:

I put in a request to order it from a Hallmark store and am waiting for confirmation that they have it in stock! It's perfect!

Here are the meals we have planned...

Jan 18- Counter Service
Jan 19- Counter Service
Jan 20- PSB lunch 12:30pmHaven't tried this yet, but it is on our to do list next time!
Jan 21- Biergarten 5:30pm Haven't tried this either!
Jan 22- Crystal Palace 8am Have never done breakfast, but we have done lunch and dinner and love it every time!
1900 PF ??One of our favorites! You should definitely do this one!
Jan 23- CRT 4pm We did this last trip, but since it is now 2 credits, we opted to free up one for another meal!
Jan 24- Garden Grill 5pmOne of Leighanna's favorites! So much individualized attention from the characters here! You feel like you have the characters all to your selves. Also, they come back again, and again!
Jan 25th H & V 12:15pmThis was fun, except we had a crappy waiter, and had to wait forever for refills and our bill! Leighanna liked the parts that you get up and dance! It did keep her occupied!

Most of our meals are character/buffet. I figured they would be the easiest with the 3 girls. Not a whole lot of waiting to be served!!

We did mostly character/buffet too. It is alot easier with kids.

I think that the next time we go, we will not do the dining plan. It is alot of food, and keeping a schedule sometimes is not the easiest thing to do. We did make all of our ADR's, but since our flight was delayed, we missed using one of our counter service meals that I had planned on for lunch that day.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Heidi- There really is no need to brag about being done with your ornaments

 

[Pooh67_68]

Hope it clears quickly, feel better soon.

Some sort of nastiness has settled into my chest. I feel as if I've been run over by a truck. I have been slurping down hot tea all afternoon, it's the only thing that feels good.

we did PSB breakfast and it was good.
Crystal Palace breakfast yum
Garden Grill lunch food was good
H & V breakfast also very good.

Have never done Biergarten
Did CRT on my Honeymoon for lunch

 

[Pooh67_68]

Breakfast. Always good to say goodbye to Mickey.

I could make it our breakfast on our last day that way they can say good bye to Mickey!

 

[Mommy2EmMoLu]

Thanks Tom!!

Eric and I ate at Biergarten years ago, on our engagement trip. We loved it. This is a must do for us.

We did the PSB breakfast so want to try and catch Ariel as a princess.

The Crystal Palace breakfast is so we can get into the park early. Empty castle shots.

My girlfriend and her family did H&V and said they loved it. The girls are both into Little Einsteins right now so at the very least it should be fun.

I booked the BB Boutique for the day we do the CRT. We were going to do the Pirate and Princess party but decided it's too late of a night for Molly and they would love to get all dolled up more.

So the weekend is here, who has to work?

 

[Pooh67_68]

Jennifer, sorry you are uncomfortable.
Maybe Virginia will come soon.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Tom, sorry your wife was embarrassed about having to wear gloves, but we do what we must do.

 

[bear74]

So the weekend is here, who has to work?

When we went in 2005 we went with my parents, sister and niece. My dad about had a heart attack when he got the check. He could not understand why he paid $160+ for breakfast

Breakfast. Always good to say goodbye to Mickey.

And we can leave with a full tummy!

Olivia loved H & V because of the little einsteins and JoJo

We had an early CP so we could get empty park pictures but their was an ugly crane either taking stuff off the castle or putting it on so we did not get any castle pictures.

I think Olivia would like BB boutique
we are going in Aug. they may or may not have the P & P party but I agree it would probally be to late a night for Virginia. too bad Virginia will be to youngI think they have to be 3 to do this.

 

[Mommy2EmMoLu]

So who wants to guess who Heidi has?!?

Yes my ornament person is still here.
