What are you doing for the first time this trip?

[karly05]

Now, new things for the next trip!
My first visit during Epcot Flower & Garden
First time having dinner at Narcoossee's and BOG (have had lunch at BOG)
7DMT, of course. Also, Frozen Sing-Along
And I just might, might talk myself into finally trying Everest.

I'm also glad to see this thread again. I don't think I posted an update here (apologies if I have).
On this year's trip, I did everything above except dinner at Narcoossee's (I switched to Yachtsman's Steakhouse once I figured out that would be my primary Epcot day). But I DID ride Everest! It was super scary but kind of fun and I can't swear I wouldn't do it again someday. I bought myself an EE cap to commemorate the event.

Preliminary firsts for the 2016 trip, which is still in very early planning stages:
Dinner at Narcoossee's
Hope to eat at Harambe Marketplace for lunch on my AK day.
Finally going to visit AOA and take a better look around POP (took the bus to POP this year, but persistent rain meant I didn't venture much past the main building).
Next year's big adventure: I'm making only 3 ADRs ahead of time (Via Napoli, Flying Fish and Narcoossee's) and trying for some last-minute/same day/next day ADRs through MDE if I want any other TS meals. This is shockingly spontaneous and unplanned for me. But, I'm solo, not going at peak times, and open to trying whatever's available.

I'm not crazy enough to dream the new Frozen ride will be open by April 15, but if it is...

And I'm honestly contemplating a first flight on Delta through ATL next year because I am so fed up with the chaos that is American EAGLE (delay, delay, cancel, delay) and DFW Terminal B (if you're lucky, your gate will change only 3 times while you're waiting, and you won't end up at Gate B48/49 where most people stand around or sit on the floor because there is not enough seating nearby). (And sorry, Southwest is out until they add more flights here and quit trying to send me through Midway.) Rant over.

Eagerly waiting for rates and seasons for 2016 to come out so I can start getting serious!

[tinkerbesh]

Our only first this trip was Crystal Palace lunch. I was on the fence about doing a character meal at all, but after seeing how much DS2 LOVED it (and also the food was delicious) I think we may make this a regular place. The characters came around 2-3 times while we were there. And his favorite is Pooh, so this was just perfect.

I love reading everyone's "first" ideas. Reminds me that I like to include something new each trip, too!
