Zen And The Art Of PTR Maintenance. Sept 2016 PTR. 16/4 Trip Report Anyone??

[BibbitybobityLu]

I've learnt so much from these updates! Booze is actually one of few things I haven't ever researched for some reason, but now I have some ideas thank you!!

Good to know my skills are going to good use!

These both sound good, although I can't justify two margaritas in the first country The frozen one will probably be tempting in the Orlando heat, and it also might numb the taste of tequila!

You can't justify two maragaritas?!

This sounds like it would slip down wayyyy too easily! YUM!

You say that like it's a bad thing?!

Yeeeeah I'll be staying away from the shots... Dry-heaving isn't very family friendly

What???? No shots???

And babies vomit in public all the time in Disney! I don't see why it would be weird if we did it!

I'm kidding!

Shots are often the work of the devil!

Errrm yeah, definitely staying away. I would enjoy watching you down it though..!!

Gee thanks friend!

Oooh yessss. These all sounded good!

China, Italy, Morocco and France are the ones I'm looking forward to the most

Only the very poshest of post people!!!!!! It's a very elitist club.

Oh yes. Only the poshest of the posh

You'll be kicked out of the toon for that!!!!!

I know!! Shhh!! Don't tell Ant and Dec!!

You've managed to find the only Geordie Shore clip that doesn't contain any profanity!
Wait...
Yes, I just searched Geordie Shore gif, and I am correct

Oh I know!

I thought the exact same thing! Ooh that's pretty, I'd like one. Wait, what's even in it?!

This actually exists?! Ok wow.

I know!! *drool*

Yes she would!!!

Queen Stacey

I felt so lame ordering this last year because it's not very adventurous, but it's so tasty!!!! I love me a Magical Star

I don't see a problem with it!

That is the coolest souvenir mug and I want it. Also, this looks HUGE?!?!

That's how I like my drinks!

Yay looking forward to it

Only on special occasions

Normally it's more like this:

I'm verrrrrrry classy!

The class shows.
It does.
Really.

I'm sorry! I can't help it that rum seems to sponsor all my drink choices!

Oh, that's okay.
Go ahead and drink all the rum you want.
I'll just watch.




and then maybe take advantage of you.


What? Nothing! I didn't say a thing! Happy drinking!

I don't love coconut but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do!

Oh yes! I am delicious! And very fruity!

[KathyM2]

Bahama Mama- PARROT BAY Coconut Rum, MYERS'S Original Dark Rum, Crème de Banana, and Tropical Juices

Lava Flow -Sammy's Beach Bar Rum blended with Strawberry Purée and Piña Colada Mix

These two would be my first choices I'm a rum fan lol. A monorail crawl sounds like a lot of fun!! I'm not sure I'd make it all the way around though lol

 

[SnowWhiteOz]

...to do a Monorail crawl with me!!!

Can I come?

Let's start with GF, mainly because its the fanciest and I really turn up at the GF after a monorail crawl?? Does that sound like a good idea?!

Grand Floridian Resort & Spa:

Key Lime Cooler- Skyy Citrus Vodka and Key Lime Juice blended with Vanilla Ice Cream

Bahama Mama- PARROT BAY Coconut Rum, MYERS'S Original Dark Rum, Crème de Banana, and Tropical Juices

This also might be a good reason to do it last! I want pretty much EVERYTHING here!!

Polynesian Village Resort:

I apologize in advance to @pkondz it's pretty much rum river from here on out! Ooopppss!!

Tahitian Torch- ByeJoe Dragon Fire Spirit, Tropical Juices, Passion Fruit, and fresh Lime Juice

I haven't seen this one before.

Are you all still alive?? Can you walk??

​

 

[DonnaBeeGood]

.

 

[cinderkelly]

Okay then! I think that about covers it!

Hey wait! You've forgotten the iconic adult beverage of the Polynesian! You can't visit the Poly without



Lapu Lapu from the Tambu lounge
A blend of Myer’s Original Dark Rum and tropical fruit juices fill the hollow pineapple shell, and it’s all topped off with… wait for it… MORE RUM! Bacardi 151 Rum, to be precise.

 

[cinderkelly]

i have a monorail crawl planned also for my June trip

And I had the same " where to start dilemma". But since we are staying at the Contemporary I think we will start at the Poly, then move on to the GF where by that time I won't care if I fit in or not and then end back at the Contemporary so I can climb into bed straight away

But I'm sure I'll only have one drink at each stop so as not to embarrass my son with my compulsion to dance on bars on in cages after a few cocktails

 

[*sammi*]

Holy tolito! That is a lot of drinks! I get blind drunk from one small glass of wine! I wish I could handle my liquor enough to do these kind of things! But I don't! Darn!

 

[Leshaface]

Okay first things first....DRANKS! Girl, I can not WAIT to see what you can conquer at the World in only 6 months! (Seriously, you only have 6 months of waiting left?!? ) Also, I laughed also at the suggestion of 'Two or More' for the Uh-Oa. The first time DH and I did take the suggestion cause the server said it was pretty strong...NOPE! We ended up getting another drink or two each afterwards. Definitely not as strong as they make you think it is. But this was also at Disneyland, so maybe the hand is lighter there?!?

Second - Does this mean you get to meet up with @TheLittleKatie in September?! Oh my gosh, i'm WAY TOO EXCITED for this TR!

Third - Did you hear there will be a second season of Fuller House?! I just finished the last episode last night and I loved it! Our Fuller House club with reunite once again soon!

Fourth - Sorry I can't reply with fun GIF's yet! I'm hoping to get my new computer this month so I can get back to my normal self

 

[BibbitybobityLu]

I thought you were going to go for those friends of Gaston?

Yeah well that doesn't help me now!

There was a plan?
Dang... you're good.



Although I prefer naughty.

Oh I'm always naughty

Patience.


Infinite patience.

Yeah. I don't really do patience.

The class shows.
It does.
Really.

I know. It's so exhausting being so classy.

Oh, that's okay.
Go ahead and drink all the rum you want.
I'll just watch.

Well if you say so.....

and then maybe take advantage of you.

Sorry I didn't quite catch that?

What? Nothing! I didn't say a thing! Happy drinking!

Oh good! For a minute I thought you said you wanted to take advantage of me! Phew! Well back to drinking!

I do not have to do that.

Lucky you!

Yeah, well.... We don't have the world's best rum, so...

Poor Canada

Not yet. First I want to see truckasaurus with Marlon Brando.

Oh alright then!

On your way to Sainthood.

Yes exactly

Actually... yes.
People would point and hurl epithets.

Sounds like fun.

Only if I was the one allowed to hurl epithets!

Wait.... you have to pretend?
This, from the same whip cream can sucking girl we've all come to know and love?

I know! The shame!

Did someone say ice cream????

Yes! That was me! Keep up dear!

After ice cream... this sounds boring.

What the heck is Fever-Tree??? They just made that up!!

Apparently it's real!! Who knew!?!

I think the diabetes flight sounds pretty good

I'm thinking we've lost a few along the way... but go on (without them)

Meh, we are better off without them anyway! Besides more booze for me!!

Oh, great.


sigh.

Finally! Something sans rum!

That's okay, though. I don't mind. You go ahead and enjoy yourself. I'll just sit and take advantage of you... I mean, I'll just sit and enjoy your company.

Whaaatktkkk.....

Dis thew sah smfthin? *hick*

Should we set up a wheelchair and a bucket at the finish line for you?

No I'm good! I'm vomit free since 2006!

 

[pkondz]

Yeah well that doesn't help me now!

Well, considering your next comment...

Oh I'm always naughty

I suppose I should fly over there and give you a good spanking.

Yeah. I don't really do patience.

This shocks me.
Shocks me!

I know. It's so exhausting being so classy.

I believe you. Keeping up appearances takes a toll on a girl, no?

Well if you say so.....

Sorry I didn't quite catch that?

Oh. Sorry. I said:
"and then maybe take advantage of you."

Oh good! For a minute I thought you said you wanted to take advantage of me! Phew! Well back to drinking!

Yessss.... Drink up, little one. Drinnnnkkkk....

Only if I was the one allowed to hurl epithets!

I'm sorry, you can't be the hurl-ee. But drink enough and you could be the hurler.

Yes! That was me! Keep up dear!

Sorry. Lack of sleep has made me stupid.

Well, okay then.
Wait.
What are those air quotes for?

Apparently it's real!! Who knew!?!

Huh.

Or.... Photoshop!!

I do. I really, really do.

See? They get it.

No I'm good! I'm vomit free since 2006!

So 10 years is your limit, then?

 

[BibbitybobityLu]

These two would be my first choices I'm a rum fan lol. A monorail crawl sounds like a lot of fun!! I'm not sure I'd make it all the way around though lol

They do sound good! I am very much looking forward to doing the monorail crawl (I know for a FACT I will end up saying "Por favor, alejado de las puertas" louder and louder as the crawl goes on! ) I think if you just had one drink at each hotel you would be fine! I think the issue might come if you tried to do all the bars at each hotel...like I plan to

Can I come?

Yes of course! I totally want my fav Aussie lady there!

(@pkondz that's totally you! )

Precisely!

Oh yes! That sounds good!

...or five...or six

I haven't seen this one before.

It looks so goooooooooooooooooooooood! Why don't I have one of those now?!

I really hope that you would!

 

[BibbitybobityLu]

Always good to start out showing how classy you are!

I think you mean pretending to show classy I am! I don't think anyone wants to see the real me!

Now that's classy all the way!

Hey wait! You've forgotten the iconic adult beverage of the Polynesian!

Ah! Han Solo is mad at me! But don't worry!

I missed it out this round because it is in my restaurants and getting sloshed section and I don't want to do too many repeats and have you all yell at me!

But it's totally on my list!

You can't visit the Poly without

Lapu Lapu from the Tambu lounge
A blend of Myer’s Original Dark Rum and tropical fruit juices fill the hollow pineapple shell, and it’s all topped off with… wait for it… MORE RUM! Bacardi 151 Rum, to be precise.

i have a monorail crawl planned also for my June trip

Hey where did you find that tape of me?!

And I had the same " where to start dilemma". But since we are staying at the Contemporary I think we will start at the Poly, then move on to the GF where by that time I won't care if I fit in or not and then end back at the Contemporary so I can climb into bed straight away

That does sound like a good plan! I think I'll maybe do mine when we are at the Poly then I can just stumble back to the room...or fall asleep on the beach...you know...whatever happens first!

But I'm sure I'll only have one drink at each stop so as not to embarrass my son with my compulsion to dance on bars on in cages after a few cocktails

But it's that why you have children? To embarrass them at every opportunity?? Hell that's the only reason I'm having them! Oh and the new organs on tap! Never know when you might need a kidney

Holy tolito! That is a lot of drinks!

Well if you're gonna do something! Do it drunk!

I get blind drunk from one small glass of wine! I wish I could handle my liquor enough to do these kind of things! But I don't! Darn!

It takes practice. Lots and lots of practice!

 

[BibbitybobityLu]

Okay first things first....DRANKS!

Alicia!! How are you??? I am totally picking up the slack for you on the drink front!

Girl, I can not WAIT to see what you can conquer at the World in only 6 months! (Seriously, you only have 6 months of waiting left?!? )

Guurrll! You and me both!! It was 6 months yesterday!!

Also, I laughed also at the suggestion of 'Two or More' for the Uh-Oa. The first time DH and I did take the suggestion cause the server said it was pretty strong...NOPE! We ended up getting another drink or two each afterwards. Definitely not as strong as they make you think it is. But this was also at Disneyland, so maybe the hand is lighter there?!?

Glad it wasn't just me then! Do they pour lighter in Disneyland?! Well I need to make a note of that for my future trip! *note to self bring own booze*

Second - Does this mean you get to meet up with @TheLittleKatie in September?! Oh my gosh, i'm WAY TOO EXCITED for this TR!

That's the plan! I am excited for it too!! Unless I get banned before then!

Third - Did you hear there will be a second season of Fuller House?! I just finished the last episode last night and I loved it! Our Fuller House club with reunite once again soon!

THERE IS GOING TO BE A SECOND SEASON!!!

I watched all 13 episodes they day they came out! I loved it soo much!

#djandsteve4ever!

Yeeeeesssssss!! Fuller House Club unite!

(Also season 2 needs more John Stamos. Just sayin! )

Fourth - Sorry I can't reply with fun GIF's yet! I'm hoping to get my new computer this month so I can get back to my normal self

Yayy!!!

 

[BibbitybobityLu]

I suppose I should fly over there and give you a good spanking.

Spank away!

I believe you. Keeping up appearances takes a toll on a girl, no?

Oh. Sorry. I said:
"and then maybe take advantage of you."

Yessss.... Drink up, little one. Drinnnnkkkk....

Wait was that your plan all along?!

I'm sorry, you can't be the hurl-ee. But drink enough and you could be the hurler.

I'm so good at yelling names at people! I could be a sailor the mouth on me.

And I'm very good with sea men. What?

That's me!

Sorry. Lack of sleep has made me stupid.

Lack of a brain makes me stupid!

Well, okay then.
Wait.
What are those air quotes for?

Errr....nothing!

See? They get it.

So 10 years is your limit, then?

Not yet! It's just the amount of time since I started drinking (not completely legally...!)

Besides, I'm a Geordie! We are born to handle our drink!

 

[BibbitybobityLu]

​

Hello fellow members of humanity!

I'm taking a break from drinking, well talking about drinking anyway…I've already broken my break from drinking otherwise! What?! It's Sunday!
​

​

Instead talk let's about food! Or to be more precise talking about booking times to eat food in 6 months!

That's right! It's nearly ADR time and I think I am 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% sure I am nearly satisfied with my list! Well for the next…..hmmmm….twenty minutes or so!
​

Now I've been trying to plan everything out in order to work out when and where to put our ADRs and like a fool I attempted to do a fancy smanshy spreadsheet like the ones I've seen @Elevationist and @ursalita post. Why did I say like a fool you ask? Well it turns out I have no spreadsheet skills what so ever! Clearly all that IT stuff I learnt at school has been replaced in my brain (most likely by Magic Mike gifs….) so my spreadsheet was a complete and utter FAIL.
​

​

So instead I have had to make do writing it all out by hand in my snazzy gel glitter pens! I'm so fancy!

I cant remember (and I'm too lazy to look) whether I mentioned how many DDP credits we will have?

If I didn't we get 19 TS credits in total spread over AKL, CR and OKW, if I already mentioned it….well that was for those of you who just got amnesia.
​

You're welcome!
​

My plan has always been to utilise the DDP credits by doing more 2 TS meals cause that feels more like value for money. But I guess since it's the free DDP all of it is value for money! So I'm going to do a list of the ADRs I have on my “possibly, maybe, selected” list or PMS if you will!

It's not really in order right now other than 2 TS and 1 TS:
​

2 TS
​

Yachtsman
​

Narcoossee's
​

California Grill
​

Artist Point
​

Cinderella's Royal Table
​

Tiffins (I'm guessing this one might end up as a 2TS but who knows?)
​

Jiko (This is a maybe. I can't decided if I should add it or not. Most of the reviews rave about it but I just cannot make up my mind! If you have been please let me know and maybe just, you know, make the decision for me? Pretty please??)
​

Then there is these two: The Boathouse and Hollywood Brown Derby. I keep flip flopping over them. Mostly based on reviews! I read a bad review its out, I read a good review its back in! I cannot make up my mind! I will possibly end up picking one of them but also more likely they will be replaced by one of the new Downtown Springs ones like STK Orlando or if it's open The Edison.
​

No Fulton's because it's closed!!!!!

​

1 TS
​

Sanaa
​

Yak and Yeti​

​

Be Our Guest
​

Sci-Fi
​

50's Prime Time
​

Morimoto Asia (lunch)
​

Mama Melrose (unless its closed)
​

Skipper Canteen (????)
​

'Ohana
​

Kona Cafe
​

T-REX
​

Grand Floridian Café
​

Captain's Grill
​

Beaches and Cream
​

Nine Dragons
​

Trails End (lunch)
​

Liberty Tree Tavern (lunch)

Via Napoli
​

The Plaza
​

Crystal Palace (breakfast)
​

House of Blues
​

Raglan Road
​

The Wave​

​

Whispering Canyon Café
​

So that's where it's at right now. It will more than likely change one, twice three time a lady...

Where was I? Or right! It might all change again once it's ADR day and let's be honest even then there are many chances it will change!
​

Also I have done something I never thought I would do! I have planned breakfast ADRs!! I never do this! Mostly because we don't really do breakfast at Disney (or at home more than cereal or toast!) So it just never seems like something we actively want to plan...but I have like 8 breakfasts planned!
​

And I'm planning on having pancakes every time!

​

Or as they are sometimes called flapjacks. That isn't what a flapjack is but...

​

I'm still annoyed that Disney is being so slow at releasing park hours, I know that we have some thanks to the travel agent links but I really don't want them to be accurate! I mean no Wishes or MSEP from 5th to 24th???? WHAT?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
​

If this ends up being true I will not be a happy camper!

​

No Wishes will make having TPV null and void! And if we have no Wishes, no Fultons and no BTMRR well then I guess I'm going to Bora Bora instead!

Wow that got ranty quickly didn't it? Whoops!

​

I think my first (yes I will have more than one!) ADR day is Wednesday...but I could be wrong as I suck at maths! So let's see how much more stuff will be announced to mess up my perfectly planned schedule!!

But on the positive side purple Magic Bands are now a thing!!! And you can choose them in MDE!! So I will have one in every colour!!!

In other news I was watching The Mummy the other day and got to wondering about how cruel life can be, case in point what in the hell happened to poor poor Brendan Fraser??

(before anyone gets their knickers in a twist George of the Jungle is a DISNEY movie which was rated PG it was a U in the UK, so these are totally appropriate gifs
If I'm going out I'll do it in style! )

He doesn't look a damn thing like that any more.

So much...errr...talent and now it's all gone. Sad. So very sad.

Anyway! I digress! Plus I have nothing else to say. But I might just stay here a while and look at...my ADR list. Yes that's what I will be looking at. Nothing else to see at here.

Well. I can't think of any think more to add. What about you Shia Labeouf?

Riiiiiiiiiight.

(@pkondz that's totally you! )

And I'm totally okay with that.

Spank away!

Have I mentioned yet that I might go down....



...to WDW in September?

Here. Drink this.

Wait was that your plan all along?!

Being an alcoholic? Just for a little while.

I'm so good at yelling names at people! I could be a sailor the mouth on me.

I believe you.

And I'm very good with sea men. What?

Hallo!!!!!

Lack of a brain makes me stupid!

I sincerely doubt out.

Errr....nothing!

Oh, good. Phew!

Not yet! It's just the amount of time since I started drinking (not completely legally...!)

Besides, I'm a Geordie! We are born to handle our drink!

Off to read the update, now.

Hello fellow members of humanity!

​

Shoot. That leaves me out.

I'm taking a break from drinking, well talking about drinking anyway…I've already broken my break from drinking otherwise! What?! It's Sunday!

Sunday. Day for church... they have wine there, so...

I have a dog!!!!

Instead talk let's about food! Or to be more precise talking about booking times to eat food in 6 months!

Okay, hit me.

That's right! It's nearly ADR time and I think I am 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% sure I am nearly satisfied with my list! Well for the next…..hmmmm….twenty minutes or so!

Good to be so certain... ish.

Why did I say like a fool you ask? Well it turns out I have no spreadsheet skills what so ever!

Do you have other spread like skills then?

So instead I have had to make do writing it all out by hand in my snazzy gel glitter pens! I'm so fancy!

What... no pictures?

I cant remember (and I'm too lazy to look) whether I mentioned how many DDP credits we will have?

Oh, about that many.

Tiffins (I'm guessing this one might end up as a 2TS but who knows?)​

I don't do 2credit places. At least I haven't... but what the heck is Tiffins???

Now some of those I've done.
Some thoughts.
I would definitely pick 50s over Sci Fi.
Skipper Canteen would be high on my list.
T-REX would be very, very low. Okay. It wouldn't make the list.
Beaches... must go back.
Via Napoli... was very underwhelmed with the za, so nah.
Have heard really good things about Raglan Road.
Whispering Canyon. I don't know. I don't think I'd enjoy it as much, solo.
We can do that one together.

Also I have done something I never thought I would do! I have planned breakfast ADRs!! I never do this!

Me neither! And it seems like such a great idea.

And I'm planning on having pancakes every time!

I mean no Wishes or MSEP from 5th to 24th???? WHAT?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

What? That can't possibly be right!

Wow that got ranty quickly didn't it? Whoops!

But on the positive side purple Magic Bands are now a thing!!!

Saw that! Same place you did, probably.

case in point what in the hell happened to poor poor Brendan Fraser??

Dude got old.

it was a U in the UK,

What's U stand for? Unlimited?
