It's what we're not doing for the first time. At almost $80 per person, I finally deem MNSSHP not worth the cost.

But... Top of the World Lounge for the first time since we'll visit as owners at BLT!!

What do you recommend at Via Napoli?

The Margherita Pizza for sure! We can't get authentic Italian style pizza where we live so this is a must for us and we love it! If you imbibe, we also get the Sangria to go with it. We haven't had anything we disliked here, from appetizers to dessert, to drinks!

Glad to see this thread come back! I posted in Dec. about "firsts" DH and I were doing on our March anniversary trip; here are our "firsts" for our Nov. family trip:
-first time spending Thanksgiving day in WDW (flew in late at night on Thanksgiving once)
-first time starting most days in parks at noon or later and closing them rather than RD since DS's now despise getting up early
- new restaurants this trip: Cali Grill, Narcoossee's, Fultons, San Angel Inn, breakfast at Capt. Grille & Trattoria Al Forno, hopefully Flame Tree BBQ finally! And possibly Cape May Cafe

Since we've been to WDW at least 15 times, you won't believe mine......we plan to eat at Casey's. hard to believe we've never eaten there. Now I just have to come up with stuff for the rest of the days...I try to make DS try something new once per day.
