I am so excited for our upcoming trip we will be arriving on September 4 and leaving on the 11th.
It will be me my husband and 17 month old twin girls. We went last October and the only reason why we are going again so soon is we couldn't pass up on the free dinning and we got great airline tickets.
So we have only done one or two adrs on a trip before so this is a new experience for us.
We arrive at 7:15 AM and we have reservations at Chef Mickey's for dinner at 7:50 (we have done this for breakfast) we are a little worried about how late it is but we figure the girls will still be a little jet lagged.
On Wednesday we have a 8:10 ADR at Ohana's my husband and I love Lilo and Stitch and the girls already know who Stitch is.
Thursday we have an ADR at Hollywood and Vine for a Fantasmic Dinner package. We have done this before and liked it I thought about Mamma Melrose but not sure I want to get in trouble while eating dinner I got in enough trouble while eating when I was a kid.
Friday, we have lunch at Nine Dragons, my husband loves the Table Service Chinese here and were hoping this food is as good or better. I am not as big a fan but I figure I can find something.
We also have dinner at Coral Reef here. I have wanted to eat here since the Full House episode, and I think the girls will like the fish tanks. They really like the fish at Rainforst Cafe. I have heard mixed review about hte food but I am hoping its not to bad.
Saturday we were going to go to Typhoon Lagoon and I figured we would either use our coupon at Planet Hollywood or just grab a sandwhich at Earl of Sanwhich which is our favorite and probably call it an early night.
Sunday we have 7:45 at Liberty Tree Tavern. Our plan is to be at MK that night and we couldn't find any openings at any other place for dinner in that area or at a MK resort. We have eaten here before really like the food and charachters but not a big fan of the squished tables and slow service. I also don't like eating this late but couldn't find anything earlier.
Monday our last day we have a 810 at Crystal Palace. I have always wanted to eat at the park before opening and Winnie the Pooh and friends are another favorite in our house.
This is our first time on the dinning plan so I am a little nervous about having so many adrs but also excited. We didn't plan this trip until June 15 so it was way past the 180 days so not so many options. I really wanted to get into a steak place but couldn't find any openings. We also tried to avoid lunches so we had flexability on getting the girls back for naps if they needed it. We also booked more buffets so we had more options on food for the girls since they aren't on the dinning plan and our free. Some places we might need to get them their own meal. But now I wonder if I should have tried to get some more high end restaurants to really utilize the free dinning.
Any thoughts or advice would be great. Thanks so much.
