Ok, in the "old" days of ADR's I had to invest in a long distance phone call and time the hours of operation right in order to book or cancel an ADR.

But now I can tinker 24/7 and I'm thinking it's not a good thing !! So, here are my revised, yet again, ADR's:

October 3 Teppan Edo dinner
October 4 'Ohana dinner
October 5 Sci-Fi dinner
October 6 Kona dinner
October 7 Boma dinner
October 8 Grand Floridian Cafe dinner
October 9 Yak & Yeti lunch and 'Ohana dinner

= one of those is gonna have to be OOP which will probably be Yak & Yeti as it looks like the most affordable of the eight.

I, Gina aka eeyoregon, promise not to tinker with my ADR's for at least 5 days.

Guys - I am SOOOOOOO sorry! I haven't updated the list for so long! I hadn't realised just how much of a bad DISer I'd been!!

I'll get the dates all done today!

Welcome Maleficent!! The DIS is a very dangerous addiction! But a fun one!!

Where are you staying?

[torsie24]

So, I just bought Ridemax!!

It's looking very helpful!! And for $18 it's worth it for the fun factor for obsessive planners like myself!!

It only has dates up to the end of August at the moment, but it's great fun!

Are any of you doing a meal pre-MNSSHP? I just can't decide! Might have a look online and see how CP is looking around 4pm for our party date!

I think that we are just going to do a counter service meal the day of the party. CP and LTT just doesn''t really appeal to me, and my husband is a super picky eater (makes ADRS very challenging!!) We talked about Tony's but spaghetti and my kids...HUGE MESS! and I've considered the Plaza but c/s it is for us!

[lustergirl]

Good Morning everyone! One day closer to our trip. We are staying at POP (first time) October 1st- through the 6th, can't wait!!

We are at All-Stars Movies, but the last two times we went we stayed at the Polynesian resort - however Times are tough and compromises had to be made! Just glad to be going back! A little to Type A in my planning, 99 days left and I have a complete time schedule made - fireworks, dinners, shows, whew, and of course the drinks and the W&F fest.
and your right, since I am not working during the summer, I am sooooo addicted already.

[tinaninea]

Well, I'm in! October 3-10 @ POP. Just 82 more days, and of course, I have a complete itenerary, MNSSHP plans, F&W, & ressies made. The only thing missing is an illuminations cruise. DH really wanted to do that this year & I haven't had any luck finding one yet. Oh, well, maybe some Richard Petty tickets will make him forget about it...

I think this is our plan as well. I need to make up some TS credits anyway (due to having booked 2 signature meals at 2 TS credits each) and I just think I'd rather have the time the day of the party rather than a big meal. We're only spending 2 days in the MK, one of which is our MNSSHP party date, so I want to get the most out of our park time.

Heck yeah, I'm doing Tony's Town Square this year before the 10/20 MNSSHP. I've never been there so I'm excited. In previous years I've done Crystal Palace and Liberty Tree and I love both. But I need to try something new!

I'm DYING here - why isn't it at least September yet?!

Smart idea!

I'm tempted to do cosmic rays so we can see Elvis stitch, lol. I'm just worried if we don't eat a big meal before the party that every food place will be packed by early evening so we'll be spending 30 mins waiting on a CS meal when we could be partying it up. Maybe we should get a big lunch or something. I looked to see if we could get WCC for like 3pm, but no luck.
