We are going to many of the same places, just a day before or after..none the same day!

Also, "supper"? Are you from New England like me?? !!

My DD took my phone once and asked Siri what 1 billion to the 10th power was. Dont do it unless you have 10 minutes to spare!

You know, I've used "supper" my whole life, and only recently realized that most other places call it dinner. I'm in NY.

For those wondering, I emailed VIPassholder via the WDW site regarding AP preview of GE - I was told that I will not have access to the previews because we have not activated our voucher yet. I can include the email in a later post if anyone is interested. Needless to say, we are pretty bummed about it.

I grew up calling it supper, but for some reason transitioned to calling it dinner. My mom still says supper, and I think my sisters do, too. I grew up and still live in northern Michigan.

Have any of you had good luck using touring plans reservation finder? I've got it searching for a reservation at Sci-Fi Dine In.

I used it to change the time of our Sci-FI reservation and it found one for me. It took about 3 days. This was about a month ago.

Yup, probably better if I don't know lol. I'm not a huge sports fan. I'll root for the Yankees, or the Mets if they make the World Series, but that is about the extent of it.

I got a few hits specifically for Sci-Fi. When I used the service in March, I was having no luck for Artist Point until the week leading into the trip, especially the 3-4 days immediately preceding our preferred date. If you can be flexible and wait to pick it up until 72 hours beforehand, I think you'll have success.

Thanks a lot. Now I have the song stuck in my head...



It was 1989, my thoughts were short my hair was long
Caught somewhere between a boy and man
She was seventeen and she was far from in-between
It was summertime in Northern Michigan ....... All Summer long!!!

I've used to successfully for Ohana and a few others. It was tricky, though because you had to log into the website to try to get that reservation as soon as you received the email, or it would be gone. And if they sent an email that they found the reservation, but it was gone by the time you logged into the Disney website, then you had to go back to Touring Plans to reset the request. But, for an must have reservation, it is a life saver.

We've got a crap ton of 'supper clubs' here in Wisconsin but I call it dinner. Probably due to the fact that I grew up on the WI/IL border.

I just don’t have any luck with BOG. I’m too slow logging in.
But any other restaurant I’ve tried for, I’ve got.
Good luck!

I have supper at home with my family but I go out for dinner with friends.

I actually got the idea from you. I've been reading your trip report. It's not a big deal if we don't get to eat there but I thought it would be something fun for my daughter and I to do together on our girls' only trip.

Glad to be of service. And for a bit of trivial information, Kid Rock owns/owned a place in the area where I live and the song came from that. Also, the video for Uncle Cracker's song "Smile" was filmed in the town were I live.

Somehow, I got lucky and snagged a lunch reservation for BOG a week ago.

Yay! Magic Bands arrived! We had two premium bands and two solid colors. DD was disappointed that she couldn't get the Stitch band, so I've ordered her a decal to go over her band that looks similar to the design she wanted. Keeping my fingers crossed that I can get it on smoothly and it holds up for her.
Anyone else checking the park hours to double check on EMH and other changes to the schedules?

I am from Boston as well and grew up saying supper, but somewhere along the line I’ve transitioned to dinner. I like hearing others refer to it as supper - it’s nostalgic Go Sox!

Yesterday I was able to grab FOP at 7:45 on 8/23, and have since moved it up to 7:35 - progress! Still no luck with SDD
