Wednesday, Dec 3rd Shark's 11th Bday We will take taxi from POP to Beach Club for 7:40am ADR at Cape May Cafe. We originally had ADR for Chef Mickey at 8:50am (which I transferred to another Diser) but Shark decided that since he was eating there on Tuesday, he would rather try somewhere else today. Again, we show MickeyNicki's DR that included Cape May and he was sold. We have not worked out how Sue will surprise Mark that morning. I will probably check in the group and explain that we are surprising Shark and have them seat us then have Sue call Shark to wish him Happy Birthday and somehow have her get around to Wishing She was there too and tell him that you know Disney is where wishes come true and have her come out and surprise him. The video will be running and I will post when we get back. After breakfast, we will take the boat from BC to HS to start our day there.
Shark wanted to spend his bday in HS, we didn't do ANY of the rides last time, just dinner at 50s PT so this time we made a point of spending time there. Of course Toy Store Mania is one of our priorities for that day, hopefully the lines won't be too long and we can ride plus get FP for later. We also plan to do:
Lights, Motors, Action Stunt Show (Shark's request), Star Tours, RNR (only Dave & I), Muppets 3D, Magic of Disney Animation, One Man's Dream, Indiana Jones plus walk around the park. We might see some of these things on Sunday during EMH.
We have lunch ADR at Sci-Fi which we have not tried before but think the kids will really like the atmosphere. I have read that the food isn't the greatest but I'm sure all will like the milk shakes.
We will return to POP to change for dinner and then take bus to MK & then boat to WL for ADR at WCC. This was the favorite dinner of everyone from our last trip and Shark's No.1 request for dining on his bday. We are the type of family that will get into the place and the characters so it should be alot of fun.
At 7pm, I have to check in with the captain of the pontoon boat for Shark's Wishes Celebration Cruise. The boat should have a Happy Birthday banner and balloons and comes with chips, soda, water, etc. I will place order with WL in room dining for personalized bday cake (yellow cake with chocolate filling with chocolate frosting plus Red Sox logo), decaf coffee & tea, hot chocolate. I was told they will supply plates, napkins, silverware and box for left over cake. The boat is scheduled to leave the dock at 7:30pm for tour of 7 Seas Lagoon and then will be in position for Wishes at 8pm. After Wishes, they will return us to WL. I'm not sure if we will return right away to POP or spend some time exploring WL. We will then take taxi back to POP.
Up next BBB, DTD and MVMCP plans.......
Should be up tonight.
to you.
He said he would take an empty suitcase since he can take 2 for free so he could bring home all the Legos he wanted. 
earlier and just eat CS in MK later in the night. I think we will decide that day since we are all eating larger lunches and I REALLY want to the Christmas lights on the Castle show. We want to see the first Mickey's Twas the Night Before Christmas so that we can get in the other shows like Belle's Christmas. We will skip the first parade to ride some rides, get photos with characters and get spot for Holiday Wishes at 9:30pm. and then once the crowds have left, wait for 2nd parade. We told the kids that we could stay until midnight (a BIG deal for them) so after the parade we will ride some more rides and shop a little. We want to get one of the limited edition MVMCP pins. After this, we will take the bus back to POP for some well deserved rest.
but we have a lot of stuff planned. 
We have an ADR at Ohana Lilo and Stitch Breakfast at Poly at 7:50am which I changed from previous time of 10am. Since Thursday night is a late night, I am hoping we will still make this one but if kids are still sleeping, we might skip it. I didn't want to keep the 10am since by the time we are done with breakfast most of the day is lost. I will probably be booking a Photo session at Poly at 9:30ish for the whole group. Since I purchased the photo CD before Sept, we can still get the session for $25. I would like to get some group shots as well as individual family shots with the kids. After the photo shoot, we will jump on the monorail to TTA and then onto Epcot. We have the Behind the Seeds tour booked for 11:15am so we can spend some time at Epcot after the 45min tour. We will probably grab some snacks around Epcot to hold us over. We have booked Grand Tea at GF at 2pm but now it looks like alot of traveling back and forth so we might cancel and just stay in Epcot for a while then go back to POP to change for dinner at Calf. Grill. 
When I booked the ADR for 5:30pm, Wishes was scheduled at 6pm but then Disney changed their schedule and will no longer be doing Wishes early, just the 9L30pm show during 
I don't know much about it...
so they can sleep in but I doubt they will if they know we can hit a park for a few hours prior to leaving. I am trying my best not to be the crazy touring mom and letting the kids have some time to do what they want especially on their last day. But if the offer that is being discussed on the budget board is true (stay 4 nights, get 3 free), we might just be going back next year. 
Go Go...
