You mean I DO get to go to WDW in 2014?? - Link to TR in post #523

AK sounds like a good plan. That's too bad about the menu changes.

 

[franandaj]

Sounds like a great SWW meet-up.

What FP+ did you select?

I'll report back here about the FP+ selections. They're pretty close to the ones that I suggested in the individual days with the exception of the Epcot days that we had tiering.

Sounds like you have a great plan at AK.

Thanks! I think it will be a good day.

AK sounds like a good plan. That's too bad about the menu changes.

I know, it was so good last year, this year sounds like not so much. As if they changed the menu to be more "American". The whole reason for a place like Sanaa is to have it be unique. Why did they need to make the kebabs into sliders?????????

Oh and hey, I forgot to announce it on this thread, but we booked B2B Cruises out of San Diego for May 2015. I call it a 5 night cruise with stops in San Diego and Ensenada with two days at sea!

Just the one port stop in San Diego, we have no choice as to whether or not to take a trip off the ship and go through customs.

YAY for the B2B cruise out of SD.

cool great news! Days at sea means Palo brunch! Get some of that amazing stolen! How wonderful. We booked up May 2015 also. Other side of the coast! We are on The Magic 5 night out of PC Key West, Nassau, Castaway Cay , day at sea. Yeah!

Have you booked your FP+ for Friday 30th May thanks you reminding me to do it! I got TSM , Star Tours and Voyage of the little mermaid. TSM in the afternoon between 3:50 and 4:50 in the handicap line. Maybe see you there! I have the car without the pull string it has buttons! But I still only score beaver lol.

Thanks! It should be fun, I'm thinking of it as a 5 night cruise with a mandatory port stop in San Diego for a couple hours.

I'm hoping for Palo Brunch on both of the Sea days since we have one on the 2 night and one on the 3 night. We'll also do one night at Palo, I'm not sure I can take two nights there in such a short time period. much too rich.

We booked all our FP+ for the May/June trip, do you need to book separately for the HA line? I didn't know there was an alternative to the pull string. That would really help Fran out.

how glorious re Palo brunch and Dinner. Us too! We should be gold by then so should be able to book before Silver members!

No you don't need to book HA separately just turn up in the handicap line and ask for the car with the buttons not the pull cord. My wrists hurt for a week after using those and a cast member told me they had the button car. I have used it ever since! I think the car is called Jessie! I just got a new gogo scooter and I named it Jessie. My other scooter is Buzz Lightyear! Jessie is coming to the world in May after your helpful advise

Back to back from San Diego? Congrats!!!

Congratulations!!!! Same room so you don't have to move your stuff?

that is so cool you can do that! I also heard that when you disembark you can go with the crew to the local walmart and stock up on sodas!

 

[spiritsim]

WOW love your plans and love love love the cruise.......I would love to cruise one day.........congrats

 

[scottny]

MMM, love narcoosse’s.
The amount of MB’s is ridiculous. Such a waste of money they are throwing out the window. We got doubles when we went. I am sure if we book we would get the AP ones too.
Love to get to TPC one day.
MMM, Le Cellier. The only thing I care for there is the cheddar soup. I make it too and it is one of Vinny’s favorites.
Sanaa is my favorite restaurant at WDW. It is so good.
The plans sound good.

 

[eandesmom]

I like having a chunk of time that isn't planned. As long as part of the day is, we can then still be spontaneous but not fall into the "I don't know, what do you want to do" scenario that seems to happen if I leave an entire day open.

I love Sanaa. We do plan to go there in Sept. It's a must do for both of us. Luckily our fav's are intact.

I love AK too, it often gets shortchanged on our trips and I have a feeling we will be there quite a bit in Sept. Jeff LOVES AK.

I'm with you, I don't know why they have to take away what makes a place unique.

Oh yeah, I still owe you a picture of the cord thingy to see if you need to buy one or not.

Yay!

Very cool! We just have to get off the ship and from what I hear, they let us off after all the other passengers have disembarked and we get priority for reboarding.

that is so cool you can do that! I also heard that when you disembark you can go with the crew to the local walmart and stock up on sodas!

We will stock up before the cruise so we won't need to get any on the quickie day. I'm sure we'll board with enough for the whole 5 nights.

WOW love your plans and love love love the cruise.......I would love to cruise one day.........congrats

Thanks! Nice to see you back again. Cruising is so much fun! It's just a blast!

The whole MB thing is ridiculous, I can't wait to get my three for this upcoming trip.

Yeah, it's good to have some days open because Fran has all these ideas about what she wants to do, but doesn't come up with them until we are there. I know now that she will want to hit the art store at DTD and the ones at Epcot and MK, but the only one that really seems to make a dent is the DTD one, they have the most stuff and a binder where you can order things from the warehouse. That's what takes a while and costs a lot.

Hopefully we will still go to Sanaa, I never get Indian food at home, even if my favorites are gone, I'm sure I will still like whatever choices they have left. Besides the menu could change again before we go.

I'm with you, I don't know why they have to take away what makes a place unique.

Yay for B2B!

I know, the menus are becoming so generic it's just sad.

I can't believe that I have this many cruises scheduled in such a short time! We are finally making up for all those years we were trapped by her parents and their craziness and then their infirmity!

So not a real update, but a small little report on today's activities. For those of you who are FB friends, you know I've been bummed because preparing our files for the accountant has become entirely long and drawn out. It has been driving me batty and tomorrow we should hopefully be past that. However, today we took a break from real life and met jedijill at Warner Brothers Studios for their tour.

I'm going to post an in detail report of the day, and our tour, but I don't have time tonight. After our tour we headed back South for dinner. There's a bit of fine dinng in Jill's future so she was a little more interested in a "Triple D" kind of foodie experience. We visited Johnny Reb's Southern Roadhouse for some good downhome Barbeque. I'll include this in the full TR, but I wanted to post the evidence of our DISmeet ASAP! Here we are!

 

[Paula Sedley-Burke]

Roll on tomorrow hopefully you should be in a better place re accounts! How nice meeting Jill! Lovely photo

Thank you so much for your offer of a photo re the lead. I managed to find one on ebay quite cheap so don't worry. If it never arrives I'll let you know but thanks again!

Hello!!!

Y'all look like you're having a great time. Wish I were there.

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

No plans after Sanaa? Who cares? You're at WDW! I can think of no better problem to have than figuring out how to fill a day at Disney World.

We are! After only an hour we were all done explaining the figures to him. Now it's in his hands to put it all together and make sense of it!

OK, isn't eBay great! I hope it arrives and works out for you!

Hello!!!

We had a lot of fun yesterday and more in store for tomorrow.

Exactly! WDW is one place where figuring out what to do with leftover time is a lot of fun.

The food was awesome, just wait until I get to the close up shots. This place is known for it's Fred Flintstone size Beef Ribs and huge portions. One guy in there was wearing a shirt that read. Vegetarian is an ancient word for Village Idiot who doesn't know how to hunt or trap.

Sorry if I insulted any vegetarians out there.
