I love that. That sounds like my brain. Except it doesn't even know what it doesn't know, nor does it know it's issues!
I like to
think I know what I don't know, ya know?
We LOVED HDDR! Highly recommend it.
Okay, that's good to hear. I think my kids are at an age that they'll love it too.
I can relate to the ADR stress. Granted I'm still 2 months out but then if our dates change...aack!
I think we'll be fine. I just feel behind where I was last time -- before my ADR window opened I had every restaurant and time planned, and was on the phone the minute the reservation office opened. I got everything I wanted, and never changed a thing (except cancelling Whispering Canyon during the trip).
CSR has rooms that sleep 5, don't they? That's always the issue for us. 'cept we are 6, which is worse. Granted any time I have tried to actually BOOK one, they were not available.
Maybe? But last year when we added POR, the CM said that the only Moderate that could sleep 5 was POR. And I've never known a CM to give out bad information.
Maybe we'll be able to keep 5 in a room...that'd be good.
but good.
Who cares if it turns into a novel!
That's the beauty of it being
your PTR!
You can say as little or as much as you want. Sounds like you like to "talk" out your ideas/thoughts, I'm the same way. So talk away!
Not usually. I'd probably rather work it all out and then just lay it out there, here it is. But "worked-out" is not the state of things right now!
As for your ADR's being made one day at a time....if your worried you won't get the one's you want because of it.....don't! I've discovered when I made mine last month, it was a piece of cake! I think it's not caught on yet you can make them 180 days out again. In fact I was able to make one a day or two later for Cindy's Royal Table, and a I think it was a week after I made one for Le Cellier. These are all suppose to be impossible to get even in the same day your 180 days open.
Update on ADR's for the hardest places to book in May: They're all still available at the times people want them the most. So no worries.
If I can still get them for May, I'm thinking you can get them for June.
I think you're right.
YOu may call it an amorphous mass, but I think you're a fair bit ahead of the rest of us were this far out. I wouldn't worry too much about ADRs- you;ll get some good stuff! I wouldn't even worry about Hoop!
Thanks. Now Hoop I'll be able to book a little more than 180 days out. Once I hit 180 days from the Kidani reservation I can bok 180 +7
. But right now I'm day to day.
So what if Judy doesn't get her last recruit?? Is this going to be a problem??
Those excl. events sound fun! Enjoy those!
Yeah, that would be a problem....no PChef portion of the trip. We'd rebook our Kidani stay to be Standard View rather than Savannah View (I forgot to mention that in my intro.
) and have to borrow points from the next year's alottment.
But, no need, it's a done deal now. The recruit has reached the requirements, but the system won't show it as a recruit until after the month closes.
I think it's really smart to upgrade those PChef tickets.
It's always nice to have tickets for the next trip just waiting to go.
Gotta plan ahead!
I'm just thinking out loud so forgive me if I've totally missed your point here
...but can you just hang on to the PChef tickets until your next trip to use or upgrade? I think they only expire after you have used them once, so if you don't use them at all you won't have to add the non expiring option.
Don't apologize, you might be right -- I'm no expert (is there one?) on Disney ticketing practices. But now that you mention it, I think I have heard that. I wonder where I can find out for sure. That'll save me about $100 per ticket! I'm glad you're the one who brought this to my attention....
some people would want a cut, but I know that you're happy to help just out of the goodness of your heart.
Good choice on making more time for World Showcase. I'm trying to do this for our trip in April as well. Don't worry about rambling. No matter what you write, they'll be thousands of readers ready and waiting to comment
We'll also help with your planning!
Before you posted I was feeling a lot of pressure, but now I realize that that was just silly.
I think you're still way ahead of the game planning wise. In your head at least, you've got a loose idea of what you'd like to do and what you'll be up against.
the variables
1) snow days
2) meals with PChefs peeps.
3) ADRs
As far as being into your 180 day period already w/o all your ADRs, if the economy was booming, then I'd be worried. However, things such as they are..I think you're good for another month or two before things start filling up.
I think you're right, we're in decent shape planning-wise.
And, I talked to Judy about some of these issues (what a great idea
huh?) and she is in total agreement with me:
- stay far away from MK on PChef EMH day
- book the ADRs we want now and worry about other peeps' plans later
Sounds like I got the green light to start planning, right?
MaryAz!
Great choice of words for a Biergarten pic.
Is that Zappa, as in Frank, as in Mothers of Invention?
