[wilma-bride]

Just made all our Fastpass+ plans. It took just over an hour but we were able to get pretty much exactly what we wanted, in terms of experiences and times.

I also got the 'busy server' message, which would have worried me had I not known about it in advance.

Hi Wilma-Bride!!! I will be the one with the blond bob next to my short, dark, Italian hubby!!! LOL!!!
I am getting soooooo excited!!! I just made nail and hair appointments before my trip, and I'm mentally starting to put together outfits.
I know, pathetic!!!

Not pathetic at all, my DD and I just had such fun making our FP+ reservations. I think she even got a little bit excited (she doesn't normally).

Even more exciting, we just found out that friends of ours (fellow DISers) will be in the 'World' at the same time as us so we have made plans with them for St Patrick's Day evening/night. Also, a friend who I met on a cruise a couple of years ago is coming over from Tampa to meet us for a morning too. Such fun.

Have you made any ADRs?

How are everybody else's plans coming along?

 

[Jenny Sanders]

All ADR's were booked 180 days out at 6am central, and FP+ has been accomplished!!! 57 days to go!!!!!

I even got the coveted BOG dinner ressie!!! How about you???

We are also 57 days out from our road trip to WDW. Made our FP+ reservations this past Tuesday via the app and had no problems. We decided to go with only two dinner reservations and made those back at the 180 day mark. Got a dinner our second day there for Cinderella's Royal Table and have a dinner at BOG on our last night there.

 

[wilma-bride]

This is our first trip where we are only eating on site (being from the UK we usually like to try local, American classics too). We got the coveted BOG reservation too (I was gutted to have missed out in October) and we also have Yachtsman (for DD's Birthday), Yak & Yeti, Kona Café and T-Rex (one of DD's favourites).

Only 60 days to go

Sounds great - I hope BOG is worth the wait.

 

[Jenny Sanders]

Our ADR's are: BOG, Artist Point, California Grill, Narcoossees (this is my favorite), Brown Derby, Sci Fi Diner, Yak and Yeti, LTT, Via Napoli, San Angel Inn, Le Cellier, Olivia's and Captain's Grill.
Yachtsman, Kona and T-Rex are AWESOME!!!!! My husband and I had our anniversary dinner at Kona 2 years ago. This past year we celebrated our anniversay at Tutto Italia.

29 trips to Disney World and counting...next stop POFQ march 2014

Wow, 29 trips! That's impressive. I am a mere amateur (only 11 so far for me). This will be my 12th trip.

Is your Yak & Yeti ADR on the 12th? What time? Our is 12pm. I am a little jealous of some of your ADRs - my DD was quite specific that she didn't want fancy food on this trip so we are keeping it simple. Just enough food to soak up the alcohol

 

[Jenny Sanders]

OMG! Noon too!!! We picked a lot of Signatures, because we don't have the 4 kids (21, 18, 13 and 13).

I guess we will see you at Y&Y then Hey, your kids are pretty similar in ages to mine (21 (nearly), 19 and 11)

 

[Jenny Sanders]

That is sooooo cool!

 

[francis6306]

My DD and I will be there in March, to celebrate her 21st Birthday.

Our dates are 11th-18th, staying at Boardwalk Villas.

Am so excited to be doing a girly trip.

added you! I'd LOVE to stay athe BWV!!

I'm going! I'm going!

March 6-17 Solo trip staying at POR!

I already had added you to the list on page 30.

Suitcases are down from the closet!!!!

I actually probably need to get on that! LOL!

March 9-16 offsite at Emerald Island 9 family members

Added you! If I remember correctly, I have seen a TR with a family staying at Emerald Island and that is a beautiful resort!

Got all my FP+'s done! And I measured my youngest- she is currently 39 inches! I hope that she can pull another inch out before the trip!! That could really open up a TON of rides that I think she would enjoy! I'll be bummed if she doesn't hit it- we likely won't be back until 2016…

 

[LadyRayado]

I haven't been around in awhile, but now that the holidays and my baby's birthday are over, I can finally concentrate on our trip! Only 50 days! I made our FP+ selections, but I keep rethinking them. We're traveling with a one-year old and my in-laws (who thought WDW was all one park, there was only one Disney hotel, and thus we should only need two days) so I'm trying to keep it simple and relaxed. We're not FP-ing any thrill rides, since I'm the only one who would ride them - so we mostly have family rides and shows. I do have Everest and Toy Story Mania though, the only two rides I haven't done yet.

I also had to give up my beloved BOG dinner ressie, because my MiL didn't see anything on the menu that looked good to her and said she would just wait outside for us. Yes, she's that kind of diva. To keep the peace, I canceled it and we're going to Tony's instead.

Still haven't booked flights yet though, I keep hoping the price will go down but I guess at this point I just need to suck it up and book. My sister and BIL work for Disney, live in Orlando, and have warned us the weather could be warm or really cold (for Florida) the first week of March, so I have the suitcases out and am gathering the little things, but will wait to pack clothes until days before.

Feb 28-March 6 POR
Very excited to be celebrating our daughter's 4th birthday and our 8th anniversary that week!

 

[evabraniff]

Oh man. I'm so excited. We moved check-in up one day so we messed around with ADRs and I'm more excited than before! (Were staying at POR in the alligator bayou section, daughters BFF is coming on this trip, she's been to Walt Disney World once and only went to MK, and only for a few hours)

3/22- travel and check in day, gonna hit up AK and probably do Flame Tree for a quick serve dinner (I know this isn't an ADR but yummm)

3/23- is our starter MK day- having dinner at 1900 Park Fare (we've never done this before -pumped!)

3/24- breakfast at Ohana! (We love Ohana for breakfast- not so much for dinner) then were gonna head to Epcot for the day, dinner ADR at via Napoli (another first)

3/25- we JUST NOW booked the character breakfast at Hollywood and vine (yet another first) before park open and then well spend the day at DHS. For dinner well head to the boardwalk and eat at Kouzzina (a favorite!)

3/26 is our last park day, breakfast at crystal palace (another first! So many firsts!) spending the last day at MK, then we will head over to the Poly to eat dinner at Kona. (You guessed it- yet another first) and then the plan is to watch the fireworks from the beach at the poly.

Check out day, were gonna hit up Coronado and have breakfast at pepper market before we hit the road.

This is a short trip, well turn around and be back for a 10 day trip in September
