So great to hear that you are at double digits. That's so exciting

princess&her4princes · 06-10-2009, 03:10 PM

Okay, so going back and forth with Mom and Jodi over the last couple of days, this is what we came up with...let's hope I can stick close to plan when I call to do our ADR's on Tuesday morning bright and early!!

9/14 arrival day 10:23 a.m. land at MCO
12 noon arrive at Pop Century

lunch at Everthing Pop
hopefully get room, unpack, freshen up some and head to MK (about 2-3 p.m)!!!!!

hoping to get dinner ressies at The Wave 5-5:30 p.m.
head back to room after dinner for a good nights sleep!!

9/15 Epcot day- arrive about 9 a.m
12:30-1 p.m lunch at Tangerine Cafe
tour some more
head back to POP about 3 p.m to relax by the pool, have a drink and freshen up for dinner @ 7:30-8 p.m O'hanas.
9:30 fireworks from Poly beach from MNSSHP

9/16 MK day- get there 8-8:30 for opening ceremonies...(need tips, what time should I get there? where should we stand? never been so love some tips)
lunch at Terrace Noodle 12:30-1 p.m.
break late afternoon?
Dinner at 7 p.m hopefully KONA, if not, Grand Floridian Cafe (thanks for the ideas guys!!)
MK closes at 9 p.m so that will be it for this day, unless we feel like heading to DTD after dinner for a bit?

9/17 Epcot
opens at 9 a.m. will shoot for that time, get Soarin' FP 1st
lunch at Sunshine Season
WS in afternoon after lunch
dinner 7 p.m. Teppan Edo (if not, Le Celliar)

9/18 departure day, check out of room, have them hold luggage

DHS (opens at 9 a.m.) try to get there close to opening to get FP for Toy Story Mania

lunch at Mama Melrose 12 noon
leave about 2 p.m to head back to POP, assuming ME will p/u at 3 p.m for our 7:20 p.m flight.....

So....what do you think??

2xcited2sleep · 06-10-2009, 03:15 PM

I think it looks great!!!

Perfection! I can't wait to hear all about it.

I think you have a full but not too full agenda, you built in some time to rest, and have quite a few restaurants I've been dying to try. Can't wait to hear if you get them and, if so, what you think.

Are the online ADRs available yet or we still have to call? I need to check out the dining thread. I am two weeks from my ADR day and totally unprepared!

Thanks Christine!! I'm excited and hope we can get in these places....you better get crackin' girl!!!

Any idea where you're going to eat??

Haven't read much about the online ADR's....do you know much about them? I don't know if I could do it....I'm so use to doing it over the phone....more control, you know? LOL!!

Thanks for the congrats for Ethan, being he's my 1st, it was a BIG deal for us, he took right to it and is a bike riding fool now!!

He LOVES baseball...we have many years of it ahead of us I think with him and if the other boys follow....which I'm sure they will, Lucas took an indoor league this winter and really liked it too....I don't know how parents do it when they have more than one playing!! It must be tough for you!!!!

I think MeMom is good onto something-and she's got just a few trips under her belt to be an ultimate planner.

I think your Mom would LOVE watching Wishes from the Poly beach. It's beautiful and relaxing, and you can SIT. That is a huge bonus if ya'll are feeling a bit tired.

I hope you are able to get all the ADRs you want! LeCellier is so yummy-it's such a nice treat!

In one way I think a TS would be great for the last day-relaxing before the plane ride; and on the other hand, I think CS at DHS so you can get more in that day. We did highly enjoy the Studio Catering Company (overlooks the Honey I Shrunk the Kids Playground) CS. They have a baked chicken meal that is VERY tasty. I would go there again!

Thanks for your input, Brook. I hope you get a chance to check out my most recent plan of attack.....just a few more days and I'll know for sure where I get in! yay!!

Great idea LL! We're thinking KONA but if not, Grand Floridian Cafe is next on our list, looks delish!!!!

Yay for free dining!!

I can't wait, it's going to be a great trip!!!

THanks for your ideas....We have KONA on our list, I hope we get in!!!!!
