I just booked POR RR May 4-11th. My first time at a Moderate and first time in May for the Flower and Garden festival

cmoran81 · 02-02-2013, 11:21 AM

We will be in Disney from May 25th-May 28th (Just an extended weekend this time around) It will be me, DH, DS12 and DD4 and will be staying at Coronado Springs. This will be our second time at Disney and we are so excited!!! We were originally supposed to be there during Thanksgiving week, but we had to cancel that trip. We were breaking our heads as to when to go, as we still wanted to make it there this year and we finally settled on going for Memorial Day weekend. So EXCITED!!

I've already booked ressies at Liberty Tree Tavern for May 25th, as this was hubby's favorite place to eat last time we went and it's his birthday. I've also booked Mama Melrose's for May 26th, we also really liked it last year. Still looking for where to go on the 27th...probably Akershus.

Woohoo! Can't wait!!!

Have you done tea before?

I just know that we had the DxDP last year when we went, and while I liked that we had pretty much any choice of where to eat, it became a little too overwhelming having to make it to our ADR's a couple of times a day. It was our first time at Disney ever so we went all out and we loved it none the less but this time for our short trip, we are just doing the DDP and we'll see how it goes. Wish us luck!

Last year at the end of the trip, we had a couple of credits left over when we were leaving Disney (and we had driven to FL and were planning a day trip to the beach) so we went to the food place in our resort and ordered 2 pizzas to go and loaded up on juices and snacks so as not to waste any credits. We had the Pizzas next day during our beach trip (we don't mind cold pizza) and stuck all the juices and snacks in our cooler for the beach and trip home.

Getting excited

Will be at BLT, l bedroom Lake View Villa from May 5th-11th. Can't wait.

We refer to this adventure as our Adults only but everybody's a Kid in Disney vacation.

No DP this trip...do have ressie's at the Wave and Afternoon Tea at the Grand Floridian.

Probably stop for drinks at Mizners, maybe T-Rex for a Cotton-tini and defiantly spend time at TOTWL.

Plan to spend park days in MK checking out new Fantasyland and riding old favorites around the park.

Several park days in EPCOT (Drinking around WS is planned, starting with Margarita Monday

) Looking forward to Flower & Garden Festival

and new Test Track.

Today will be making ME reservations & starting my order with Garden Grocer.

Dis703 · 02-06-2013, 10:45 AM

We will be at WDW May 17 to the 24th staying at the BC! So excited to be doing Deluxe for the first time. Its the first trip for our twins and the first time my sister has ever stayed at Disney or done anything other than MK so she is super psyched!

So far our dining plans are Liberty Tree Tavern, Tusker House, Biergarten, Be Our Guest and 50s Prime Time. I'll have to add 2 or 3 more, but still deciding.

Our 4 year old is signed up to do the Albatross Treasure Hunt Cruise and The Pirates League makeover and he is super excited for both.

I'm also trying to plan a specialty cake or two as a surprise. Well my anniversary cake won't be a surprise, but doing a surprise for my sis and ODS at some point. Not sure what design to do, but thinking of Alice in Wonderland with an Unbirthday party theme.

99 days to go.......

harris family · 02-06-2013, 10:56 AM

Hey! Just wanted to say that fiance (I'm getting a little ahead of myself because I'm actually planning on proposing to her on that trip) and I will be there at WDW at the exact same time that you will be there. It may be short but we'll certainly be having a great time! I'm really starting to get excited!

RobertLC · 02-11-2013, 04:19 PM
