Had you all fooled right? You all thought I was happy...settled...comfortable even with my ADRs. Shows how little you know about TK, pirate lover, captain of the TK family. Shhh, don't tell DH, I'm sure he thinks he's in charge...nah, actually, I think the man is smart enough to know to let me plan to my little heart's content.
He watches these ADR changes with resolve. Knowing that his 3 month from now meals could change at the drop of a hat, or the whims of his hormonal wife. Don't you just love that time of the month?
Oddly enough, instead of wreaking my venegance on my poor little family due to moodiness and something arriving three days before schedule because if I don't take that darn little pill at the exact same minute, second etc of every day, it throws off my cycle, you get me wreaking havoc on our vacation plans. Oh yes, my friends.
I took out all my feminine angst on the non-itinerary itinerary.
It wept. And said why are you changing me now????
Why?
Because I can! Mwa-ha-ha!
Seriously, folks, I was looking at our plans and they were starting to look too planned. Too much going on. Not enough pirate fly by the seat of your pants go where the wind takes your ship not worry about making it to such and such by certain said time or Davy Jones will release his beastie.
Phew....
So here we go folks. The new plans as laid down by TK are as follows.
Sep 14th - Arrival Day
Get there when we get there. No ADRs. Go to whatever park we fancy or stay at the resort and lounge. Remember, we're on vacation!
Sep 15th- Coral Reef 530pm
Sep 16th - Chef Mickey's 1120am -
MNSSHP
Sep 17th - Brown Derby 1230pm
Sep 18th - Boma 1020am
It all looks comfortingly familiar right...well except that we dropped Artist Point on the first day. But fear not, my intrepid sailors...all is not lost!
Sep 19th - Artist Point 600pm
Yup. We ditched the Kona Cafe. Quicker than you can say Teppan Edo = Ginger Sauce = ZZUB in Canada.
It just wasn't making sense to me anymore. I had originally relished the thought of sitting down in that little cafe and eating my Tonga Toast. Now...I'm just not feeling it. I'd rather bask in the comfort of knowing that Artist Point is not on my arrival day, and that I will make it there, and that I've freed up a morning. When I started making my last ADR changes, and switched to Boma for breakfast, it just looked like sooooo much breakfast and lunch, which was good, but my two dinners were two days in a row. This way, we have something to look forward to as we near the end of our journey.
Sep 20th - Crystal Palace 1145am - Lapu Lapu Fest - Tink? - Spectromagic 800pm
Sep 21 - Departure Day
So there you have it folks. The ramblings of a mad woman. Mad, I tell you, MAD!!!!
I feel sooooo much better about this schedule. It's way more flexible than what we had and so much less planned. It puts us at 6 table service for our 8 day vacation, which is much more my style. I'm still thinking we'll pay for the Derby out of pocket. It will give us an extra table service and if we're not able to get in anywhere, we can always switch it to another counter service meal. I believe they did that last year do to the overwhelming bookings in table service restaurants, so although I know nothing stays the same, I'm expecting the same scenario this year.
Poor DH...wait until I tell him I switched our ADRs again.
He'll just shake his head and laugh.
I'm so tired, I don't know. I think you're right.
That is exactly how I feel. We need a call, much like ya ya but better.
My inner hulk is raging. I NEED retail therapy. Which is very, very odd for my sprendthift little self.
I prefer Malibu Rum, is that too blasphemous? Mmmmm. I should have DF tell you the story of the night I drank a whole handle of Malibu Rum myself, 4 wine coolers, sprained my ankle and other unfortunate events.
