A Nicki and Todd dining review...with the nieces!! LIVE from the Poly! - Page 3 - The DIS Discussion Forums

Mich123 · 01-19-2009, 07:21 PM

Looking forward to your report. I have a DD9 and DD12 and the best advice I can give you is...don't let them get hungry! I know, it sometimes seems wrong to be allowing a snack half an hour before an ADR, but it will save the day, really.

Love the idea of a live report...bon voyage!

Realize they are going to complain, they are going to whine, but that despite it all they love you. Let them have a snack if they want even if close to their ADR time. Kids are ALWAYS hungry. How do I know...I just look at my food bill eveyr week when both boys are home.

Love your trip reports, they always make me feel like I am there. Can't wait!!

Hey Nicki, hope you guys have a great trip! Hopefully we can meet up this time around since we didn't get there in October...looks like we will be at Epcot on Friday too (if DH is up to it) so maybe we will see you there!

dvc4life · 01-20-2009, 08:22 AM

Hi Nicki! I have been reading all of your past trip reports and love them. I keep telling my DH we have to eat here . . . oh come look at this. . . .what about this! And of course, he does this

. I can't wait to hear about this trip and see your pictures. Too bad the weather wasn't better for you though.

My tip with kids, we have a 15 and 12 year old that we have been taking down there since they were 7 and 4, is to be sure to rest during the middle of the day. Go back to the resort and chill for a while. It has helped us with staying at the parks later at night then.

Have Fun!

I plan on bringing some snacks from home and maybe they will see other yummy stuff to buy at the parks so I can take pics and sneak a bite too!
