Have never gone, DS1 could never do those kinds of crowds (haha neither could DH), and I don't travel to WDW during holidays anymore ... but we'll be 1.5 hours away so DS2 and I plan to head over just for the night. Bound to be an experience ....

Thanks a bunch. I wasn't sure if they would make that much detail available. I'm surprised that World Showcase opens so early. I wonder what time La Cava will open We can't wait for our first NYE at WDW We will miss you

I have seen that they sometimes have a horchata margarita. That seemed pretty breakfasty to me, kind of like a spiked chai latte Now, what would go best with that from Les Halles

So like we could do NYE pairings?

Okay ... Horchata Margarita [Spiked Chai Latte]

with food from Les Halles ...
... Brie aux Pommes - Brie, Apples and Cranberries in Multi Grain Bread
OR
... Palmier - Cinnamon and Chocolate Elephant Ears


We have purposely not booked any meals, I want to finally just nibble (and sip) all day long.

Maybe I should be studying nibbles and sips for the party.
