Then I shall defer to their terminology, and not mention in their earshot that my four year old godson loves a nice cordial to set him up for the day..

Yeah you might not want to mention anywhere in the USA that a four year old is drinking cordials

It's a shame we don't all speak English

 

[HopperFan]

It's a shame we don't all speak English

It really is funny how many of the same words mean such diverse things from here to there, in the same language.
DH used to go back and forth and each time he'd come back with a good story.

The day he learns to mix a proper mojito will be the happiest day of my life.

I'm the first generation of my family to not live in the homeland (Pennsylvania), so I always thought I could translate quite well.

You learn something new every day on this here board..

I shall mention this only once and then stop straying off topic.

Mum, having not been over here long, saw a lady with a.. shall we say bountiful booty, and loudly proclaimed 'Oh my, look at the size of her fanny!'

Suffice to say, it does not mean the same...

Oh that is PRICELESS!

WAIT .......... she called her booty a fanny???
Cause that was one word my DH came back with and that is not what he said it meant ...

It doesn't mean booty in the UK. That's what made it priceless

Not that I knew of ....... so that is why I am confused why his Mum, would say it? (insert awkward face)

She was saying she had a big butt. Over here, a fanny is in the same area, but exclusive to the ladies.

She only made the mistake once, mind.

His Mum is from PA (USA) and didn't know fanny has an alternate meaning in the UK. At least that's how I took it

Spot on.

 

[HopperFan]

Spot on.

OHHHHHHHH I had it reversed.

I thought you were saying you are new to living in PA, your Mum was visiting here and used the term fanny. Since you did not say Mom, but rather Mum, I assumed she was English so I didn't understand why she would say that .... cause I know what that is.

Got it. Carry on.

Yup, sorry. I was born in the UK, lived here all my life. Should've been clear that here is here and not there!

We had a really nice time at the Highway dinner. What email address would I send to Disney to let them know?
Thanks.

 

[jpeden]

In a twist of irony I received a call from the lady who originally reached out to me to let me know that the event had been restored. As I stated before, unfortunately we've already cancelled and I don't think we'll get our Valentine's Day reservation back.

Was lucky enough to book this for my hubby & I for early February and was wondering the following:

1. Are there dedicated servers at each stop where any additional drinks can be ordered (and paid for, of course) in place of those that come standard with the event.
2. Are there any drink refills?

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I am sure you could order more if you wanted to but the problem there is you are on a time schedule, so you would have to drink up pretty fast.
We are not big drinkers but I did notice some getting refills on the wine (dinner) and the champagne (cheese)
Not sure if that happens at each event.

Yes! There are dedicated servers at every venue. Your best bet for purchasing extra drink is going to be at The Wave if you arrive early and at Trader Sams. Some people ordered an additional drink at Trader Sams and/or purchased the souvenir glass for an additional $10. (They will give you a new one in the box..) There are two pours of wine at Citricos and multiple pours of champagne at Garden View Tea room. You can also have as many cups of coffee and or cordials at the Contemporary (last stop) as you wish.

Just weighing in on the email about the event. I have a reservations for 1/27 & also received the email on Wednesday. No phone call yet, but am waiting for it. The time for fireworks changed since we made the reservation, so I'm expecting our start time to change too.
