What a wonderful day! Pam, Le Cellier, and the warehouse. Awesome!

I like Lonestar too but all of ours closed. I haven't had their Bloomin Onion before. I love Outbacks though.

 

[Pinkocto]

All that shopping sounds fabulous can't wait to hear what treasures you find.

Im so glad things worked out that we can get together, that will be great fun

What a great day Day 6 is going to be. Shopping at TPC with Ruthie, Paula and Jo and dinner with Pinkocto; with rides and character M&G thrown in between. Fantastic. I'm so envious.

What a great day you have planned! I haven't been to LC for ages but I love that soup! I also love that Fred Flinstone ribeye from Del Friscos...I always order it when a vendor is paying for dinner...then I eat on it for a week!

Cool re TPC! We have an early lunch/brunch reservation so if we do join you and I am well enough we were going to come down in the early afternoon so looks like we will sadly miss you! Save some stuff for us! Unless you are still there! Def see you at RD on friday though broom broom...

63 days to go for us...

Theme Park Connection feels like one of those mystical places you hear whispers/rumors about, but are never quite sure it actually exists. Thankfully, you provided pictures, so that clears it up.

I don't know a whole lot about it, but it looks like a cool place. Especially if you happen to have kids who are into theming their bedrooms.

Good call on Le Cellier! I was disappointed when it became a "signature" restaurant since that meant it would take 2 meals off the dining plan, but I have a special place in my heart for that cheddar cheese soup.

so do you really think that half a day in the TPC is enough? This seems like a place that Fran could get lost in... Ha-Ha, well I think I could get lost in there also, I love looking at all that.

Dinner - I have never eaten there, I have had the soup from there during Food and Wine but have never been in there for lunch or dinner, it was always booked and I could never get a reservation.

I am excited for you!

 

[mvf-m11c]

You have a great planned day at the TPC, DISMeets, and Le Cellier. Sounds like you will all have a great time.

 

[Leshaface]

I hope you find lots of great stuff at TPC (i'm sure you will )

And yay for a dinner at Le Cellier with Pam! That will be fun.

I would love to do the one with the characters in their Star Wars costumes. The fact that this also can be done as Fantasmic dinner package is even better.

I know right! Getting a booking is like trying to slip by a Jedi master unseen...

if I can't get a booking I am going to offer to wash up instead lol..or dress up as a Jawa just to get in..

 

[franandaj]

I can't wait to see the treasures you'll find shopping and a DISmeet the Le Cellier is a great way to end the day.

I hope that now that the place is even bigger we don't need to buy another suitcase to get home!

That sounds like a wonderful day. I can't wait to read about all your finds and what a great place for a DIS Meet. How lucky that you get the chance to meet Pam on that day as well.

Corinna

I was so pleased that WDW had a reservation available for the three of us. It will be a great ending to the day!

What a wonderful day! Pam, Le Cellier, and the warehouse. Awesome!

Should be a great day!

It sure will be!

It will be a great and fun day. I just wish that I could get past the crappy days right now. Just postponed our appointment with the tax accountant for the second time this week!

Wow! You have vendors who take you there for business dinners!

Well that's too bad. Where are you having brunch? We may well still be there. If the place has become that big, you never know!

61 days until we arrive 62 days until the VGF!

I had never heard of TPC until the last D23 Expo. Fran got to be on a first name basis with them by the end of the show. And it's not just kids who are theming their bedrooms!

We never do the dining plan because it just doesn't make sense for us. We usually order 1 entrée for two of us, and sometimes have dinner on just appetizers so making it a signature just meant for us that it was easier to get into now that the people on the dining plan don't go there as much!

so do you really think that half a day in the TPC is enough? This seems like a place that Fran could get lost in... Ha-Ha, well I think I could get lost in there also, I love looking at all that.

Since we don't have the option of leaving our luggage at the hotel while we take home our loot, I think a day will be just fine! We had lunch there almost 5 years ago. Wow! I can't believe it's been that long. We decided to give it another shot since they added a Rib Eye to the menu. Without that it's really just a place with some good cheese soup.

You have a great planned day at the TPC, DISMeets, and Le Cellier. Sounds like you will all have a great time.

Thanks Bret!

I hope you find lots of great stuff at TPC (i'm sure you will )

And yay for a dinner at Le Cellier with Pam! That will be fun.

All in all, I think this will be a great day!

I did see that on the SWW thread. We entertained the idea, but it really just didn't work with our schedule. We are arriving at rope drop Friday to shop so breakfast would cut into our parade waiting time. We're coming back for the fireworks that night, but dinner at a restaurant would take away from nap time.

Saturday we want to sleep in so breakfast is again out, and by the time we finish Sat night, we'll be ready to go back to the room and have dinner there. Sunday we'll move on to Epcot, so we gave up on the idea.

I would totally do those meals!!!!!

Jill in CO

I would like to, but there is just so much else planned!

I would love to do the one with the characters in their Star Wars costumes. The fact that this also can be done as Fantasmic dinner package is even better.

Corinna

I'm hoping to just line up for a few of them. The meals are kind of pricey and a lot of food. If I didn't already have a good idea of what I wanted to do on those days, I might have changed our plans.

I know right! Getting a booking is like trying to slip by a Jedi master unseen...

Did you get a booking?

Take care, Alison. I hope the crappy days pass quick.

Take care, Alison. I hope the crappy days pass quick.

Me too. This doing your taxes thing sucks. Every year Fran says she will do it throughout the year, and every year we are stuck at the end of March with a crazy frenzy to complete them!

 

[ACDSNY]

I'm sure my DH says the same thing about me and taxes.

You need a fun filled week with a new friend from Colorado to make things better.
