DIS Dads The DIS Dad's Club XII: Oh... There You Are Perry!

[Disney Commando]

We did CRT for Lunch last visit and really enjoyed it - thus the reason why we're doing it again.

I don't believe the DW will be into another character dinner (since we are already doing two). I had originally thought about doing Akershus at EPCOT for our Thursday dinner and she overruled me saying that we had too many character dinners.

I told her that I was just trying to please my daughters!

Another not to far is The Whispering Canyon cafe, a all out fun dinner with good food, can get there by boat, and if you got the 1st seating (5pm) you are in and out

Good evening guys

Ryan, glad to hear from you. BTW, awesome surfing pics, it's on my bucket list to learn.

Scott, you can never go wrong with O'hana

 

[AirGoofy]

OK Dads - I get to make my ADR's on Monday and I need some advice/confirmation on my choices!

Saturday March 31st - Dinner at Il Mulino - thanks Aaron!
Sunday April 1 - EPCOT - Lunch at Le Cellier
Monday April 2 - DHS - Dinner at O'Hana
Tuesday April 3 - MK - Lunch at CRT
Wednesday April 4 - MK - Breakfast at Chef Mickey's
Thursday April 5 - AK/EPCOT Split Day - Dinner in EPCOT - Rose and Crown? I need suggestions on this one.
Friday April 6 - MK - Also need suggestions here - would be open to a resort dinner location but we're trying to stay close to MK since it's our last day.

What do ya'll think?

My $.02. I can't stand lunch or dinner at CRT. Just have not had a good meal there, other than breakfast. If you could get CRT or Crystal Palace Breakfast for MK before park opens, that is truly special.

As for MK dinner, I like the Plaza. It is fairly cheap, food is good, and great milkshakes.

Did Fed finally give him a ticket?

 

[Wherem I Now]

Its good to be back. Work has been crazy and we spent some time at the beach too. I managed to stop working long enough to teach the kids to surf.

I've been looking through mouse-savers and I think in the past couple of years every-time they've had a discount for Dec at DL its been out by now. There is one but I think it's pretty weak. I'll probably give it a couple of weeks and then book something.

I think your right, if free dining is an option in Sept then that makes it a no brainer.

THAT picture is just WAY TOO COOL!

Did Fed finally give him a ticket?

nope. ill let him post the pictures!!! we only have tammys laptop working, i cant get mine to connect. i have no means of downloading the pics unless i can get onto my laptop. not to mention, his are better!! great meet today with fed. we met at the florida welcoming center on i95 and he came fully armed! fed is a great guy as you would expect and hopefully in one of my upcoming trips we can meet up again for a longer time. we left home this morning at 2:45am. i got to the welcoming center a little after 4pm. (i wasnt speeding, honest!!!) so our meeting was after our almost 14 hour drive with another 21/2 hours to go. i drove the entire way, tammy kept me awake. the best part is i went to bed monday night at 9am and woke up at midnight and couldnt fall back to sleep. another 2 hours and i will be up for 24 hours! anyway, im going to take a shower and off to bed. warning, dont speed though ga.!!!!

Dave, you weren't speeding it's a normal 20 hr trip from me and I am your a hour away, of course with no traffic you would make better time, but I'm going to have to call you out on this and say you were moving Good Job

 

[Disney Commando]

I just started my trip report if anyone would like to follow along it is titled -

Almost Anything Can Happen On A Commando WDW Vacation


I would post the link, but as you know links and pics are not my strongpoints

Plug time I'm going to try and finish Day 4 tonight

When running 95, BEWARE the One!!!

Of course I was armed....like the American Express Card, "Never Leave Home Without It" Especially in my line of work (Not to mention I was still on duty)

It was good to meet you too Dave, sorry I held you guys up, but it was great meeting you and your wife. I have repeatedly warned people about South Georgia, now you know why (no he didn't get a ticket, but he was witnessed to a "robust" day on I 95 in Georgia)

Yes, I do exist

So here's a couple of pictures.....I'm on the left, Dave is the good lookin' guy on the right, I'm the other dude taking up space My camera only caught my red back deck LED...Dave's Camera may have caught the blue one.

This is what a cop sees right before he pulls you over....LOL Note the Whelen police light mounted right next to rearview mirror. I think they stand out, Dave and his wife say you never would've seen them until the came on

Dave, you weren't speeding it's a normal 20 hr trip from me and I am your a hour away, of course with no traffic you would make better time, but I'm going to have to call you out on this and say you were moving Good Job

I knew where he was in Georgia when he was on the way down, and where he stopped for gas. I also know how long it takes to get from that point to the Welcome Center....

Yeah, he wasn't letting the grass grow And I don't blame him

Hi there, hey there, my name is Jim. After reading your “qualifications” list for DisDads, I think probably over three quarters of your descriptions fit me. I’m what you might call a true lifetime Disney enthusiastic. When I am not at one of our family’s annual pilgrimages to the Disney World (next one in just over a month (second week of November), I work as an active duty military (Navy) member. I grew up anticipating the Wonderful World of Disney every weekend and have always loved all the classic Disney movies. Not willing to give up my passion for Disney when I “grew up” (which only grew itself) my wife and I not only celebrated our honeymoon at the Magic Kingdom (it was her first trip to any Disney Park, which also launched a long term fixation with the magic only Disney can create for her), but we also recently celebrated our 20th anniversary (with the help of some true Disney magic and some incredible cast members). Luckily (and perhaps with a little positive parental influence), all of our three boys seems to have inherited our passion for all things Disney.

Will try again in the AM.
