you'll find it for saturday. maybe not first thing in the morning, but i have been moving around my Tier 1 FP+ with absolutely no trouble.
I booked for 12/17. She said she had 9pm and 5pm available. Nothing else in between those 2 times.
well i will sit on hold from work and see. My guess is it will already be booked. maybe not meant to be
It does sound neat though. Have fun!
Maybe you guys want to tell me when you're doing EMM and MVmCP too?
Yeah, I agree that after sunset would probably be better. When I called, on my day, my choices were 5:00pm or 9:00pm and after. I was shooting for 8:30pm, so we went with the 9:00pm. While I would think the campers would probably know the sleigh rides start at 5pm, and they would know to turn their lights on, I wouldn't risk it.
I know we definitely overlap on Epcot day 12/7 ppo at akershus. I know @SilSprBea wpuld be at Garden Grill then and @Lisa F would be rope dropping at Epcot too!
I still think meeting up is a good idea especially if we want to try party snacksI'm sitting on the same fence @Candycane83 is sitting on. but if the parade kicks off at 8:15 and I can still get a good spot at 7:15-7:30 that is huge, that's about the same time you show up for the dessert party. I am not so into the idea of the desserts honestly, I'd rather get a holiday waffle sundae to share with kiddo at sleepy hollow between parade and fireworks.
I guess we should wait and see how crowds are shaping up and being reported maybe. If it's the same show up time with or without the party I am inclined to not do it. Plus we have a chance to meetup, I think it is just me, @Candycane83 and @areno79 at that party now or is there anyone else? the ability to take the kid for a leg stretch and a pee closer to the start of the parade would be huge for me too
@rasadkowski and @Talby are in the party but they're doing the dessert party I think @LBlovesM&WDW is there too, not sure if she wants to meet up if ever. First we really have to decide on the dessert party.. or not...
still on the fence thanks to @Party.Of.4-NY>>>FL who suggested it might be possible to use it for parade viewing and dessert but not fireworks. Really it hinges on finding a good spot for the parade. I am not really a dessert person to be perfectly honest, I like the DDP because I can eat a few bites of dessert and leave the rest without guilt (as opposed to if I paid for it OOP lol). So the desserts are not what is appealing. I think I am back to cancelling now lol.I still think meeting up is a good idea especially if we want to try party snacks
It does seem like as we get closer, I see more overlap than I did before! We have MVMCP the night before the 7th too, so we have our CP dinner package as a "brunch" either at 10:05am at Captain's Grille or 9:45am at Garden Grill. I haven't decided which to keep yet, but either way we won't really start hitting stuff in the park until probably 11:00am at the earliest.Last time we posted our plans together, I didn't think I was stalking anyone (or vice versa).... very little overlap
Wish I could rope drop on 12/7 at Epcot, but my sister might revolt on an early morning after MVMCP so my plans start around 11:00 on the 7th. We have 2 FP in Future World and then we will be moving on to drink and snack around the world. Hope I see ya'll there.
LOL, I love dessert but I'm picky with it. Love unique stuff...
I'd really consider the dessert party if the view of the fireworks were better. I'd be all for it. But given that I'm paying a premium just for parade viewing isn't really sitting well with me. I know I could go out to get a spot for Wishes but seems so much of a waste? I don't know... I'm still on the fence... Need to decide soon though...
we have like 45 days lol. what is the cancellation policy on that one?LOL, I love dessert but I'm picky with it. Love unique stuff...
I decided it was something I wanted to get in on because I realized It'd be great for our family because we'll be a group of 6. I just didn't want to deal with keeping us all together in the crowds. Especially when it's a really late night for my girls..
Garden Grill is my vote. Captain's Grill is fine I'm sure but it's not very Disney. the atmosphere of the land + characters vs. a boring restaurant in the most boringly themed hotel on property? lol. not that I get a vote OR my opinion was asked.
5 days
But I'm thinking we need a plan of action for MVMCP so need to decide much sooner if we want to plan to meet up
It's not blocked, it's just a little off to the side under cover.I decided it was something I wanted to get in on because I realized I'd be great for our family because we'll be a group of 6.

That sleepy hallow waffle trumps all those tiny treats.. Maybe I'll sneak one in ( or 6)
I don't really mind if it's an "ok" view of fireworks. I mean, as long as we see them I think the girls would be happy. I couldn't imagine there being a paid viewing party if the view was mostly blocked. You know? Is it?
It's great it works for you! Honestly, it might work good for me too especially with a two year old who cannot sit still unless in his stroller. But the view is really killing me! I wish they would do the plaza garden view for this too! LOL! (asking too much of course!)I wonder why they don't? Is the plaza for regular wishes? Does the terrace hold more people maybe?It's not blocked, it's just a little off to the side under cover.
They have both for regular days, just the terrace for party days....
Oh well... still torn on this... I think I'll make my decision after the first couple of MVMCPs and I would know how to plan party time...
thank goodnesss for the DVC line and short waits. Unfortunately same as you pretty much. 5pm and 9pm. Also a 7pm but that obviously won't work with HDDR. it would work if I wanted to do it INSTEAD of HDDR but not with. I don't think I want to give up HDDR for a sleigh ride though it would be about the same cost for sleigh ride + dinner at HDDR as it would be for just HDDR.
