Just found out I made round two of the Disney Parks Moms Panel Search!! Third year is a charm! Not holding my breath to make it any farther, but I'm just excited to move one step closer this year.
Yeah, I let this get to me on our trip because I was having trouble getting Ohana since 180 days was past... turns out I worried for no reason because I ended up playing musical chairs with three ADRs mid trip, and got the Ohana time I wanted to begin with.
Yes! Raevens DRs convinced me too and it was the best steak I've had in my life. Everything was amazing.
Oh no! I had mine out over Christmas break back in the day
Yay for getting Ohana!! I always move things around so much, I rarely have any original ADRs by the time the trip rolls around, LOL
Ooh, i'm glad to hear your Shula's experience was good too. I'm so excited and hungry
He is pretty annoyed with me for making it over Thanksgiving break, but he'll have almost a full week before eating time on turkey day
Happy October! Good luck with your dance planning!
Your plans sound good so far!
Thank you!! I'm looking forward to the dance being over so I will be free from anything else major and can focus on the trip, lol
Sounds like you have a good plan so far and the right mentality going into a trip that time of year.
After last year, I've decided that going zen is the only way to manage NYE there
That's how we felt the one time we stayed there a couple years ago, but it was so much more than most the hotels that it just didn't seem worth it again when we liked some of the cheaper ones better.
Yeah, I barely bother with ADR's anymore, we always end up changing them plus there's better availability day of than any other time after 180 days.
Did i tell you I bought the Pop figure???
We found it at Hot Topic and I purchased it immediately
Can you believe Poly was actually our cheapest option this time?? (mainly b/c i want to stay tower at Contemporary and not garden wing, but i might just have to suck it up and deal if I ever want to stay there, b/c I can't justify the cost of a tower room on a solo trip)
I change ADRs more than anything else on a trip. It's hard to commit, lol
I'm in!
Yayyyyyy
Oh dear!
Oh interesting! That actually makes a lot of sense. That's something I love about WL and AKL. And we also didn't enjoy Poly as much as we expected. Though that didn't seem to bother us about the GF. Not sure why. Maybe we just spent more time in the lobby and pool areas then, etc.
We haven't done this yet, either! If you do keep it, I'll be anxious to hear your review.
Nice! Good plan.
Oooohhhh
@Raeven is the reason we went here, too. And it was SO good. One of the best dinners ever.
Mmmmm Kona and GF Cafe would be my votes.
Oh no!! Poor X! And Poor S's bank account!
Why won't I learn??? Next year i'm done with middle school completely and retiring, so it's the last fall event for me FOR REAL this time!!
It is why i'm nervous to stay at the GF, b/c I know I'd want to feel a part of things, and not segmented off in my room building. Same with CR, although I don't care too much about the lobby there, I just want the view from a tower room, LOL
I am leaning toward keeping it if we do end up going to DHS that day. The problem is, I want the steak b/c
@chunkymonkey reviewed it pretty positively, but I know I'll want steak at citricos and I'm not sure I can do steak twice in one day. Decisions, decisions!
And speaking of steak...i cannot WAIT for Shula's!!!! I'm glad you had a great experience there too. So far so good with the reviews coming back on that. And
@Raeven - Shula's should be paying you for advertising!!
GF Cafe is tempting me with the lobster benedict. I love it so much!!
