Wow! Can't believe its almost that time already!! Time sure flies by! Ok so here it goes!

Cast:
Me (Tracie) – 25 - Trip planner and Disney Freak
DM (Mom) - 60 - Loves Disney and the heat!
DFa (Dad) - 60 - Loves Disney as well and vacations!
DN (Tyler) - 9 - Loves to go anywhere with his Nana and Papa (also has OCD, Tourettes and ADD)

Resort: Port Orleans Riverside
August 27th - Sept 7th

We are going during the free dining promotion for that reason! We went last year when they had free dining and we ended up saving SOOOO much money! It would be stupid of us not to take advantage of it again! We had tallied up all our receipts from when we ate last year and it totalled over $1700!! :jaw: Couldn't believe it was that expensive to eat there! Granted we probably wouldn't have ate like we did normally but with breakfast free every morning and all those snacks it was so worth the heat and humidity!! LOL!

Anyway, we will be there for 11 nights! We have stayed at POR before so we are really looking forward to going back this year! We are a little hesitant about going over Labor Day Weekend.. but we are crossing our fingers that most people decide to go camping instead of Disney World that weekend!

Dining Reservations are as follows:
8/28 - 1900 Park Faire (Dinner)
8/29 - Whispering Canyon (Dinner)
8/30 - Cape May Cafe (Dinner)
9/1 - Narcoosee's (Dinner)
9/2 - Captains Grille (Dinner)
9/3 - Cinderella's Royal Table (Breakfast)
9/3 - Coral Reef (Dinner)
9/5 - Cap'n Jacks (Dinner)
9/6 - Teppan Edo (Dinner)

On 8/31 and 9/4 we do not have dinner reservations. On 8/31 my parents and nephew will be at Seaworld (and I get a whole day to myself!!!!) and on 9/4 we will be going to Busch Gardens.

We don't really have a set schedule each day.. pretty much its a do what we want as we feel like it kind of vacation. I do know that we will be taking lots of breaks from the sun!

Well I will make sure to report back when I return! 20 days and counting!!! :cloud9:
