That sounds soooo yummy! Do you know where to get it?

I don't know where the time has gone. I'm nowhere near ready and I leave in 2 days!

I love your picture

I can't believe all our trips are so close

Thanks, but I can't take credit. It's from glitter graffics.

Grand Gathering (9 of Us) November 9-16 BLT and POR
MVMCP November 15th

Does anyone know the schedule for the Gingerbread House at the Grand Floridian? Will it be completed during our stay? Will they be doing live demonstrations?

 

[canirishgirl]

We will arrive at the Yacht Club on the 5th!

3 more days!!!!!!!

 

[paperstarfish]

So, here's my rough sketch so far. The boys are 6 and 20 months. We're looking to get the Disney experience and have fun but not try to cram everything in at the expense of our moods or sanity! We're staying at POR and on the Deluxe Dining Plan. I'd love thoughts or suggestions from Disney veterans!

Arrive on Sat the 19th - get settled, explore the resort, visit Downtown Disney, eat....somewhere.

Sunday - Magic Kingdom. Whispering Canyon at 4:40pm

Monday - EPCOT. Garden Grill 4:10pm

Tuesday - Hollywood Studios. Hollywood and Vine 9:20am, 50s Prime Time Cafe 4:35pm. DS is REALLY hoping to get to do Jedi Training here.

Wednesday - Magic Kingdom. No meal plans yet.

Thursday - Fly back home!

Thoughts? I'm excited!

Looks good!!! We've eaten at Garden Grill and the kids loved it, so hopefully your family will as wel!

If you're interested in a TS meal in MK on Wed, keep trying the Dining Res page- people cancel all the time. If you don't get anything before you go, stop by Crystal Palace (character meal: Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore, Piglet) and ask if they have any openings. You may have to take an "off" time, but we've had luck with walk-ups there.

Get to the parks as early as your kids will allow. I've found it makes a difference, not only w/ lines in the park, but with the moods of the kids. Mine are ready to go in the morning, but slow down considerably as the day wears on.

Lastly, I always hit my local Disney store for a t-shirt or 2 for the kids. Prices are waaaay cheaper and we let them pick another souvenir in the Parks.

Wear your LGMH and maybe I'll see you there!!

I hope those who are at the World are having a great time and to those leaving tomorrow have a safe and fun vacation!

On the 19th, if you are looking for a good sandwich at DTD, I'd suggest Earl of Sandwich. I love their tunamelts and they have a special holiday sandwich of turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, etc. I've never tried it but it looks great!

I hope your son gets to do Jedi Training. My son did it in August. We arrived at registration for Jedi Training at 9:05 and the line was already VERY long. My suggestion for registration is have one adult take ds to Jedi training registration sign up, while another in your party heads to TSM to get fast passes. Both Jedi Training and TSM are very popular. Your son is required to be present for registration, they will ask him some questions. One of the questions is are you afraid of Darth Vader. My son said yes, and the cm told me he might not be able to do it if he is afraid of Darth Vader. I told her he did it when he was 4, and he is intimidated by him but not afraid to go in front of him with lightsaber.

We got home late Wed night and I was recovering yesterday...

We had a great time at F&W. Wish we would have had more time and more $$. The weather was great, the crowds were very manageable. I got on Soarin at 10am as a walk on!!!

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

We are going on the 12th ( my ticker is off by one day)...has anyone else going that week looked at the weather?!!! GEEZ!!! It has rain forecasted for the majority of the week!!! I know it's still a little early---I was mainly checking for an idea of temps, but I did NOT want to see all that rain!

I keep checking and then telling myself its way too early to worry...
It has to be sunny. Just has to!

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

we were there this same week last year and it was great! I think accuweather had one day forecasted for rain, and it may have been a tiny sprinkly one evening,...but that was it! Not days of rain forecasted like we are seeing right now!!!!! I am hoping by Monday we are seeing a better week.

 

[LGH1946]

I have seen the weather reports and I am sooooo upset and scared!! Maybe it is too soon to predict correctly. Our dates are 13-19. MVMCP on the 13th
I am so worried!!!.
