Welcome, Foolish Mortals...to an October 2011 PTR! *Trip Report link is up, pg 71!!*

Yay for an update!!

I'd say skip the ADR if you are already going to LC. If you are there for food and wine, take advantage of it..unless you are going on a Saturday and don't want to wait in the horrible lines but if that's the case, just get something at WL :)
 
Full days at Epcot are so much fun! And it's great going into the trip knowing you have a whole day (plus EMH) to explore the park, that way you're not rushing everything.
I would say skip the ADR just because you're having a really big lunch and it'll give you the freedom to eat something quick and easy whenever you want. That way if you are hungry at WL, you can grab something before heading back to the park. Or, if you're still full, you can grab something later that evening at Epcot. :confused3
 
Epcot is one of those parks where you can easily spend a whole day. I think grabbing a quick bite at WL before heading back would be a good plan. Don't give up on the weight loss. You'll get there:goodvibes
 
If I don't see you at least once this trip, I will be floored! We have an ADR for San Angel this evening. I plan on eating dessert at the booths, though. We'll obviously spend the majority of our time this evening in Future World.

There are so many things at the booths that I want to try I see some of our dining plans getting changed. This time of year is actually really flexible as far as dining. We went early to a lot of our ADRs last year and even walked up to a couple of places and never had a problem getting seated in a fairly quickly manner. Ohana was the exception, I think we waited around 45min-60min. So don't fret too much about ADRs, there will always be a TS place that has reservations for dinner! :goodvibes
 

I can't wait to visit the WS! Karamel Kuche is calling my name... pretty sure I will be spening a LOT of time there! :thumbsup2
 
Love your plans for your Epcot day (LOVE LeCellier). I hear you on wishing it would get here. We have 39 days until Florida and 40 days until our stay at the AKL and it seems to be taking forever.
 
Day 7 looks great :thumbsup2 I would stick with the original plan of eating dinner at the F&W booths. Otherwise the option to eat at WL is a good idea, or you could try one of the CS places in WS. Morocco and China are supposed to be v good, as well as Mexico. Or there is Fish & Chips from the UK :teeth:

Thanks! I think we are definitely going to eat at the F&W booths instead of making another ADR! A CS in WS is a good idea, if we're really hungry, but I think the booths should be good enough, there is so much to choose from! I LOVE the fish and chips from the UK CS! :lovestruc

I definitely want to take advantage of F&W so I don't think I'll bother with an ADR! This day will be a Wednesday, so I hope the lines at the booths won't be too awful, you never know with EMH crowds how that's going to work out! :confused3

Can't wait for our full day of Epcot! :cool1: I was thinking last night that I wish I had a full day for DHS, I feel like we will not be spending enough time there this year, but I just can't find a day where we can do that. :sad2:

I don't think we will need a 2nd ADR that day, I keep forgetting how filling LC is! :rotfl: I'm pretty sure I left the evening open that night just so we can eat at the F&W booths anyway! :yay:

I love Epcot, I could spend a whole week there! :lovestruc

Ugh, I'm not giving up on the weight loss, but I'm kind of annoyed that I won't make my Disney goal. I mean, I suppose it's possible, but 18 pounds in 7 weeks might be pushing it a little. We'll see! :banana:

LOL I keep forgetting that we're going at the same time! I'm sure we will see you somewhere! I think we will venture over to Future World once EMH starts, go on Soarin a few times, and Test Track, hopefully!

I was thinking that if we REALLY wanted to do a TS that night, we could try walking up to some places. And there's even the Epcot resort restaurants we could walk over to, if all the Epcot ones are booked, I'm sure we could get in at Captain's Grille. :thumbsup2 I think the F&W booths will definitely be good enough, though! There were so many things I wanted to try last year but couldn't because I had to leave room for an ADR, now this year, I won't have that problem! :laughing:

I can't wait to visit the WS! Karamel Kuche is calling my name... pretty sure I will be spening a LOT of time there! :thumbsup2

LOL! Karamel Kuche is great, it smells so good when you walk in there! It's so hard choosing something to get, because everything looks SO good! :thumbsup2

Thanks! OMG, I'm SO ready to go! I need a vacation, I need a break! I took today off just for a little mini break, and then I have Labor Day off, and the day after (took it off because it's my birthday), but I really need to get away for a while! I just want to be in Disney World! 7 more weeks! It sounds like nothing, but it's still kind of far away! :eek: :laughing:
 
Seven more weeks! It both sounds like it's coming right up and like it's still forever. I guess it kind of depends on whether or not I'm thinking of all the stuff I still want to accomplish before the trip. :rotfl:

Day seven looks great. Epcot EMH are always fun. I'd just go with F&W for dinner, I think. There's so many good choices that aren't available during the rest of the year.
 
Sorry, I'm a few days behind!

Thanks!

Ugh, I know, it's hard staying motivated when you aren't losing any weight. I'm having a hard time staying motivated right now, because even though I'm losing, I don't look any different, and that's frustrating. I've lost almost 15 pounds, and you can't even tell yet. :confused3 I just have so far to go still...

Cirque is a great idea if we can't get into the parks! :banana: I'm not going to worry about it now, but if it ends up that we can't get our tickets early, I'll definitely keep Cirque in mind, although, I don't think Brandon has any interest in Cirque! :eek:

Yay for booking your rooms! Where are you staying?

Trust me, Brandon will like it if you end up going! It's not what a lot of people think it is!

And I'm not telling about our resort yet....it's a surprise :)
 
So we are both "cheating." :rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2:

And now you've got me really curious.

yes and i feel HORRIBLE about it! :confused: I want to start my PTR but it's crazy early for a trip that is still 326 days away! I don't think I have enough going on to keep people entertained for that long! :laughing:

Hey, I have a PTR for a trip that's well over a year away :lmao:
 
Joining in (very late, I see...)!

I was just drawn in by your title. I love the Haunted Mansion and since I had a feeling this trip is going to be during MNSSHP so I had to check it out.

Congratulations on all your weight loss, I know from my mom's constant bantering about not being able to lose weight that it's hard. Hopefully you'll be able to lose that 30 like you want :thumbsup2

Great ADR choices! I can't wait until I read your review of Le Cellier, I've always wanted to check that place out :goodvibes

I can't believe that they may be changing up the ticket policy, that's pretty insane after having a fine one for awhile, oh Disney :sad2: Hopefully it isn't true so you guys can go to the parks on your first day :D

Can't wait to hear more about your trip itinerary! :mickeyjum
 
Boo on gaining .5 pounds. However, don't let it get you down. Apparently, we can fluctuate naturally by 2 to 3 pounds, so .5 is nothing really. I do know though, it's frustrating when all you've been seeing is down down down, and then, it changes.

Love all day at Epcot! 29 more working days. That makes it seem so much closer. Maybe I need to look at it that way too.
