My dentist says I have too much plaque already.

Hi Lauren. Thanks for joining in. Where in NJ?
I slept in this morning until 7:30
What I won’t do for my three readers for I am sure they are dropping like flies.
Do you want me to just hand Ponzi this thing??
We arrived at our table for 10! Yay! They put us together.
Our waiter was very attentive
Well, this puts me in a quandary.
I still want to order it if it’s the only spicy item but will that insult him? Will he even care anyway?
The dining plan people among us ordered the surf and turf which is the most expensive thing on the menu. I do miss that aspect of being on the dining plan.
But I also got pretty sick of eating steak.
At least they made it a little exotic.
The naan bread is soft and chewy with little charred bits from the wood burning oven here and there.
The sauces were arranged from mild to hot. I think there were about ten of them and included things like hummuus, cucumber raita, tamarind sauce, cilantro herb sauce and a really spicy pickled jalapeno relish.
I kept going back for more of that even though it was a little painful
The dining plan people all ordered dessert.
Squid also ordered dessert, banana cheesecake.
He said Ohana was the hardest service job because you were constantly bringing things to the table. And you had to read the table.
A couple minutes later she announceed that she was taking us directly to our resort.
We clapped, hooted and hollered. Yay, bus driver! What a magical moment.
I will have another one in my next update.
I really have mixed feelings about this.
I really do like the idea of "forcing" people to keep their ADRs. From the perspective of "Let's make a bunch of ADRs for the same night at a bunch of different restaurants and we'll pick the one we actually want later. To heck with anyone else who wants one."
On the other hand, if something comes up, you're stuck.
Wish there was a better way.
And no. I can't think of one off the top of my head.
I can. With MDE, they can stop you from making more than 3 FP+ reservations. Surely they can stop a party from making more than 1 ADR for each meal slot. If you don't have MDE, you pay a cancellation fee. See, easy!
And since you haven't posted the answer yet,
Uh oh. I am lagging behind. (I’m sure Ponzi can have fun with that one.)
Because my knee was bothering me, we took the bus to Magic Kingdom and then transferred to the monorail.
For a mere $2,100 a night, we could stay in one. I’d better start saving.
“Hi there. We have reservations at the same time and we’d like to sit together. They are for”
“Name please!!”
“Ok, I was getting to that. I just wanted to let you know that there”
“Name!”
Well, that wasn’t very Disney-like!
all the while all I wanted him to do was take the buzzer away from me. The vibration was driving me crazy
MMMM. Bread.
We got to the table, and wow, we lucked out! We had a big round table right by the window overlooking Magic Kingdom.
(Real time note: It is now 10:54 on Thursday. I’ve finished my project and my family is still sleeping.)
During all this a second platter was brought out. I think we all overate.
Our first stop was the Sorcerers card place and apparently you can’t get more cards unless you play the first set.
We went into the emporium and Squid and I looked for the perfect gift for the prize. BUT… we didn’t find it yet. Squid said you should just figure out what Ponzi would like.
C’mon readers! All three of you! Are you going to just hand it to him?
Monkston said she would probably want to spend more money in the store in Japan.
As were exiting the store, who do we run into but Sheena, Druid and TGM! What are the odds of us bumping into our friends among 20,000 people? The same thing happened to us last year.
We quickly visited Tinkerbell when our FP+ time came. She was really tiny. Not fairy-tiny, but about the same size as Monkston.
I feel bad for the lesser princesses who have to stand out in the heat with those big dresses.
I get a kick out of watching them act like princesses.
My knee was really bothering me. I should never had tried that marathon the day before.
I had some great bus karma going on because there was a bus waiting. I hobbled as fast I could so it wouldn’t leave without me.
There may or may not have been adult beverages consumed before heading back to the room to get ready for a night in World Showcase.
We got a table on the water right away.
You mean like only one meal between 8am - noon. One between noon-3pm. One between 3pm - close?
Or only one at a time?
I can see people getting pretty upset about the first option, and booking multiple ADRs still in the second.
