Very late first night?

[DisGirl819]

We are flying from Seattle...so the earliest I can get a flight to arrive in Orlando that isn't a red eye is 6:30. Which puts us at the resort (BLT) around 8 pm. We are taking ME from MCO and I know how long it takes. Should I make late dinner ressies for one of the places in CR? If so which one? I am planning a breakfast at Chef Mickey's the next morning. I know California Grill is 2TS (we're on the DDP) but I was planning that too...so do you think I should make that ADR for the first night? Our kids will be 1 and 3...and after a full day of travel I'm not sure what to do. I don't know that we want to just do something in our room either. Any ideas?

I would suggest you or DH take the kids to the room and the other get some food at the Contempo Cafe. (CS credit - or pay oop) I would not make ADRs for the first night.

I'm sure some kids do fine at Cali Grill - but mine were tired and ready for something other than sitting quietly in a nice resturant. (5 year old was okay - but the almost 2 year old was not)

I think you may be right...I just didn't want to make food. I didn't know there was a CS in CR! THanks so much!!

You could either grab CS at the Contemp Grab and Go OR eat at the airport before boarding your ME bus....I've done both, depending on the "condition" of my kids and how badly they need to get to our room and settle in.

the Smoked Turkey Sandwich - topped with Brie, apple butter and arugala on Challah bread was soooo good! I got it to take to the airport on our way out. Be sure to get the french fries. YUM!
