D~ did it.. It's ALWAYS D~
Suzi is the Bag lady!!

Oh yeah... It's always D~ huh? I'm not entirely sure about that.
I have no idea what Suzi being the bag lady is all about! Clearly I missed something!

Well, since you are on the monorail....how about hopping over to the Poly a couple times. Captain Cooks has Tonga Toast (I don't like it, but lots of people do) for breakfast. And their Aloha Pork sandwich and Polynesian Nachos are to die for!

Hmmmm... I never even thought about going to the Poly for QS. That might just be a GREAT idea. I too have heard good things about Tonga Toast. Although, I'm not even sure what that is. Off to go research!!! Thank you for the recommendation!!! SOME (Chicago cough cough Mo) people are too busy hi-jacking to help!

So, the paper bag thing.....Mo is really into photography and I hate having my picture taken. So when we go to MOA in May, I told her I was going to wear a paper bag over my head all weekend so she couldn't get my picture. Okay, so it was funny at the time and I bet if I did show up with a bag over my head it would be wicked fun because the airport police would probably lock me up!

Tonga Toast is a very thick piece of french toast with cinnamon and sugar all over it stuffed with bananas. Upstairs at Kona Cafe, they serve it with a strawberry sauce which kinda cuts down on the sweetness. This is not available in Capt Cooks, but if you like really really sweet things, it is a heck of a deal (about half the cost of it up in Kona). I know a lot of people complain about Capt Cooks because it doesn't have as many choices as a value or moderate food court, but we were very happy with it and I stop in there at least for the nachos every trip now. Plus....they have Dole Whips!

I am not sure how wicked fun that would be... I've heard that airport security around here is not very nice.

D~ <--- who will have her camera ready just in case.

I am also a planner and LOVE spreadsheets. I'd love to see what you have if you are willing to share

always thinking ahead. so i need to put a little more to the side then i originally planned....

It really sucks that she has a layover... It would be better for her to spend as little time in the airport as possible. I just hope she makes it to MN...

I might have to dip into my Disney savings too...

D~ <--- whatta mess...

OMG....I leave you crazy ladies alone for a few days and this is what happens?!?! I'm not so sure it's Suzi that you all should be worried about...TSA might just see the 2 of you coming and lock you up just as a precaution! I think I need to start a chip-in to raise money for bail for Mo, D~ and Suzi!!!!

 

[solana131]

OMG....I leave you crazy ladies alone for a few days and this is what happens?!?!

See what I have to deal with?

I never had the nachos!!! this is going on my excel sheet of to do's...

OMG...They are AMAZING! You remember the homemade Poly chips they serve there? Well those are the nacho part. Then they add their yummy shredded pork, then the pineapple salsa, then some sort of tropical sauce over it all with melted cheese. Yum yum yum! We tried them on our last day and were so upset that we hadn't gotten them sooner. I don't do onions, so I ask for it without them...they have to leave off the salsa too because that has onions in it, but they are still deeeelish without that!

This week was crazy busy and Wayne and I were both sick all week. We both have nasty sinus infections....Hello Spring! I did manage to get online and make our ADR's on Tuesday and I had to call on Friday for our Keys to the Kingdom tour.

I was able to get all the ADR's we wanted, even though some of them aren't exactly the times we were wanting. On our arrival night, Sunday October 6 we will be eating at Whispering Canyon Cafe at 6:50pm. Tuesday, October 8 we will be eating at Via Napoli in EPCOT at 7:00pm. I am really hoping that we finish dinner in time to grab a spot for IllumiNations that night. Our last ADR is Thursday, October 10 (our last night) at Ohana at 7:50pm. Ohana is one of my absolute favorite TS restaurants and I cannot wait to eat there again this trip!!!!

I also called to schedule our Keys to the Kingdom tour. I was only on hold for about 3 minutes and I was able to get the day and time I wanted. We are doing the tour at 8:30am on Wednesday, October 9. The MK doesn't open until 9:00 that day and we have to check in at City Hall at 8:15 for the tour. I hope we are able to grab a few shots of the Castle with an empty main street prior to the start of the tour!

AWESOME!!!

sorry you weren't feeling well and hope you feel better!!!

 

[DMGeurts]

That is so awesome!!! Some day I hope to take the underground tour (not sure what the name of it is?)... But I hate that it cuts into my park time... Sigh.

I hope you and DH are feeling better soon... (((Hugs)))

[solana131]

I think your plans sound good....Sorry, but you lost me at "Via Napoli" didn't really read more than that! Yum! Love love love my VN. It is our arrival night tradition now... get in early, have lunch at the resort, head to MK just for a bit then head over to Epcot via monorail (just because it is so cool to enter Epcot on the monorail) for dinner at VN. Hope to stay and watch Illuminations this time after VN too, I've never seen them
