You know, because it's very important to eat regularly to sustain your energy for Disneyland touring. Or because there are too darn many tasty things.
Plans are looking good. None of it is really my area of expertise yet, but I'll be taking notes on what works for you!
There are a lot of really tasty sounding things - and all new to me so of course I want to try them all. Might have to have multiple lunches on multiple days
Hopefully at least some of it winds up working
I have no basis for making any suggestions as we are trying to figure out when we can take our first Disneyland trip ourselves. But I can say the plan looks good to me and I think I am going to steal your idea of having 1st lunch and 2nd lunch! I could really go for some Columbia Harbour House on this next trip for 1st lunch and then a chicken/waffle sandwich from Sleepy Hollow at about 1 as we leave the park for a break. I think you are on to a great idea!!
Well, I think the chicken/waffle sandwich can definitely count as a snack if you don't want to go full on 2nd lunch. Actually, promoting the 4th meal could be a good move for Disney - make a little extra money and fit more ADRs into the hard to get places
As someone who also plans their Disney vacations around food (I may have an ADR problem... ), I think your plans look great! It appears you'll be hitting all the highlights and your must-dos.
Also, coming from someone who once had four ADRs in a single day (Kona Cafe, Rose and Crown, Le Cellier, and the Wishes Dessert Party), I can totally stand behind multiple lunches!
Finally, I adore your spreadsheet! Along with many on the DIS, I'm a big fan of my spreadsheets!
First off, the only ADR "problem" is when you can't get the ones you want
This is just proof to my point in the above post - the 4th meal at Disney can work!
Hi joining in . Its exciting to be going to a new Disney park. I love how everything goes back to food. The food is sooo good there. Also, love to see another person who loves spreadsheets, they're my favorite. Very cool how you have a link to the menus . Interested to see how your planning goes.
Thanks for joining Ashley! I tend to do a lot of my Disney planning around food - so not surprised I went there first before any of the attractions when it came to learning about Disneyland. Definitely a spreadsheet fan. Use Excel a ton at work so it is fun to use those skills for something a bit more fun
That's awesome that you guys brought your 1-month old!!! We were in Orlando when our son was almost 2-months, but we just went to Downtown Disney with him.
We are planning to go to Disney in April, when our son will be 9-months. Any tips on rides that you guys were able to bring the little one?
Definitely let me know of any specific questions you have regarding with the little ones. I think the best thing is just to know you are going to have to take it a bit easier and go with the flow a bit - there is a good side to that as it almost forces you to slow down and take in the Disney details a bit more.
Oh, not sure if you are nursing, but there are a ton of places to nurse at Disney - dark rides and really any ride in a boat works especially well
All caught up!
Belated happpy birthdays to you and Olivia. My oldest granddaughter will be six in April. I know it's cliche, but time certainly flies, doesn't it?
Spreadsheets and researching restaurants! I can relate! That's definitely my thing in trip planning.
I've never been to DL, but there seems to be plenty of great food options. Any day that has Lunch 1 and Lunch 2 sounds like my kind of day!
Thank you Annie! Time really does fly - I still remember brining Olivia to Disney World when she was 8 months old.
I think 1/2 the reason we go to Disney is so I can use spreadsheets and research restaurants
My son tends to eat about 4 lunches lately - so he will definitely be on board with our double lunch day
