[annie1995]

Great reviews! 2007 Is so far away for us . It helps to see pictures of food and everyone elses trips to pass the time. Good Luck with your future plans!

POP! I live in the Buffalo area now, but grew up north of albany. It was a big change to go from soda to pop, but 2 years of hearing it and not knowing what people are talking about will do that to you.

Awesome reviews and pics!

In the South when I grew up, everything was a Coke. "You want a Coke? Okay, what kind?" Orange, grape, rootbeer, they were all cokes.

Thumper's Tara- I am from Rochester too!!! I grew up in Henrietta. I can't wait to get back!

I grew up in Fairport! How funny. I just moved back to the Northeast after several years in the South, so I know what it is like to move back home. Well, not quite home for me (6 hours away), but a whole lot closer!

Today was our last day. We slept in a bit and then headed to check-out. We really loved POP and if the DVC wasn’t getting the Dining Plan, we may have gone back. Never say Never. I had my leftover pastries for breakfast while Dh ran down to Everything POP and got a muffin, banana and O.J.

Our last stop would be DTD. I wasn’t feeling well, but we managed to split a rice crispy treat from Goofy’s (With milk chocolate, peanuts and crushed peanut butter cups!). Dh wanted Earl one more time. He had the Scuddeto again and I got a kids grilled cheese (which I only ate half of). Dh used our last CS and got a chocolate chip cookies and drink. I used our last 3 SC and got 1 chocolate Milk and 2 bags of chips. This would come in handy at the airport later
Total- 1 CS ($9.00)
3 SC (4.21)
Rating-
.
Here are our Totals. The dining plan cost us $350.00
Snack Credits-10 or $20.46
Counter Service Credits- 10 or $122.81
Table Service Credits-10 or $420.33
Total-$563.60

OOP-$215.55 (just for food, souvies don’t count here  )

The dining plan was amazing and we would do it again in a heatbeat. This was our last trip for while. 2006 is looking to bring big things for us. We are looking to move back to Upstate NY, so hopefully we will have new jobs, our first house and maybe even a bundle of joy soon.
Thanks for reading this!

Thanks for your great review!! We always do the dining plan. When we were on our honeymoon the dining plan used to be a set $$ amount and that included alcohol then they changed it to "Wishes" (alcohol not included) and now it is this new dining plan. We were worried it wouldn't be worth the money but since you have broken it down by $$'s it is a definate with us for this year's October trip.

Did they call that pastry from france a elephant ear? I am suprised - that is a palmier, similar but not the same

nice report - loved the pics! We just went as well and agreed with a lot of your reviews. Le Cellier was my hands down absolute favorite (and I am a food snob, so that is saying a lot!)

Yea, every where I go they call them something different. It says on the menu Elephant Ear. Guess they are trying to be cute? Or just easy for Americans to understand?
