***The Official April 2016 Thread!***

I'm right there with ya! 197 days to go! We are doing to QSDP, just for convenience of having everything taken care on in advance, so I'm not really planning on too many ADRs. Just Boma (for my birthday) and lunch at BOG. Totally hoping to be able to try out the Skipper's Cantina also but I know the rush to set that up once it's available will be wild.

Is Skippers Cantina going to be QS or TS? Anyone know what kind of food they'll have?

It is a nice convience to be paid ahead of time. This is our first time staying off site so I am buying Disney gift cards to pay for our meals. Boma was great our first trip. And we are going to do a BOG lunch for our second time. I would love to try Skipper's Cantina as well.. Waiting to see a menu for that.

I don't think any of this has been announced yet. I am patiently (not! lol.) waiting for more details to be announced!

Nothing official, but the rumors I've read here expect QS lunch/TS dinner, same as BOG (I am hoping if lunch is QS it also has ADRs like BOG). I've also read a rumor here that the food will be Asian/African/South American-inspired (in keeping with the Jungle Cruise theme) - but again, I've seen absolutely nothing official.

Just hope I can maybe land an ADR for 1 any time on 4/12!

So excited to see someone in this group making dining reservations! Makes it so much more real... I can't wait to make mine. We ate at a majority of those places on our last trip... Including Ohana on departure day.

How exciting!!! Have you done a cruise before??

You're going to have a blast. We cruised for the first time this May on the Dream on a 3-night cruise. Loved it soo much that we are doing the 4-night this time to maximise our time on the boat. We are a family who likes to always be doing things & were concerned we might find being on a ship too limiting. But, everybody decided we'd always want to do a land/sea vacation from now on.

Hello!
I figured I'd join this thread as we are going April 23-30th. We are staying at Pop. It'll be my husband, myself, and our daughter who will be 23 months. We just got back at the very end of September and we stayed in AKL. I had not been in ten years. I didn't think it'd be my thing and that I'd ever go back. Well, 6 months after my September trip, I'm going back!

Awww, our son will be 15 months when we go in April, and we are staying at AKL. I think he will like it!!

We stayed at the CR this past April and while the convenience was great, we really missed the big theming you get at other resorts we have stayed at. Looking forward to getting that back at AKL!

I loveddddd AKL, but I will admit, I am a bit spoiled now. a Deluxe when I hadn't been in ten years? yep. that was the way to do it! My daughter loved the playground at AKL. Make sure you find it!

I will definitely look for the playground!!!

WL is our favorite resort and AKL reminds me of it a lot so I think it will be great. We as a family really prefer the deluxe resorts....AND we are CL addicts, sooooooo.....yeah....

But, vacation is pretty much the only thing we splurge on in life...YOLO

 

[karly05]

It's been a good day for vacation shopping! I bought 3 pairs of capris for next April's trip at JCP today for a total of $16.31! My challenge: one pair is "Sea Green" - now I have to figure out what colors go with that.

Monday is ADR Day! Quattro Formaggi, here I come!

Your cruise is right before ours! We're:
4/22 - 4/29: Pop
4/29 - 5/2: Dream cruise
5/2 - 5/5: Pop

We ended up pushing all of our dates up a week. I need to start thinking about ADRs!

 

[karly05]

Pizza Night is on, baby! It's ADR Day and I'm all set for my annual visit to Via Napoli, and my first time at what I like to call the "British Children's Literature Breakfast" at 1900PF.

Now to watch for ADRs to open for Skipper Canteen, and count down to my FP day when I'll make a couple more ADRs once I have all my 7DMT FPs booked and know my timing.

180 Days to Go!
