Hubby and I are traveling to WDW in March. We are staying at POFQ and were so blessed to receive the free dining. Here is the dilema:
I am a Disney nutso, like a 12 on a scale of 1-10. Hubby is an 8. I am super excited about the food experience along with the park experience...hubby not so much. So I am trying to think aout the best compromise. Like he wants to just eat CS meals and not worry about the TS meals that way we can be footloose and fancy free and not tied into any one park or reservation time. In a way, the Disney freak in me totally gets that. BUT, we are going to be there for 9 days days. I think we can be a little less commando about this.
And while I don't mind eating CS for part of our meals, since we are traveling without kids it would be nice to do some adult meals. To me that is part of the DEAL that we are getting with Free Dining. How does he not see this?
What would you do to compromise on this? The only reservations I have made are at:
Raglan Road the night we fly in
Crystal Palace late morning for breakfast
Ohana on a Sunday evening for Dinner/Fireworks on Poly Beach
LeCelier for lunch
Would it be better to book lunch reservations for our TS meals so that we are missing less of the night activities? Or is lunch time a better time to commando the park when everyone else is heading back to resorts for naps/pool time, etc?
He SAYS he doesn't care, it's my dream trip, do whatever I want, he's just along to see me be happy. BUT, he's already complained about 2 of the reservations I have made because he has no desire to EAT that kind of food.
Seriously? I may have said something to the effect of, those who have been asked and don't want to help plan do not get to complain. But, I also do not want to put up with a tantrum in the park and missed reservations because he doesn't understand how serious the ADR's are...so, what would YOU do?
