PHEW!!! I DID IT!!!

I have only been "lurking" around here and there as I had not been able to book anything for my Oct trip to WDW. I was getting a bit miffed as I was waiting on family to see if they were coming so we could nail down the dates & book together..well, I finally have booked the hotel and air transportation today!!! I actually have a headache as I was thinking too much about how I wanted to be seated on the plane(4 of us-do we sit across or behind each other-wanted the 2 DS to be by the windows, blah,blah,blah) and after way too much thinking, it is DONE! I'm sure I will wish I had done it differently once we get on but oh well! We'll be on the way! There are still undecided family members but they are on their own at this point! On to ressies for Chef Mickeys and ordering MNSSHP tickets for the 14th of Oct! Also,I would love your thoughts on the Coral Reef restaurant?? Worth the price at lunch to take the kids or not??? I went a LONG time ago so I'd love any input.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts! Sorry so long!

Congrats on booking your trip! Just wanted to say that I like the Coral Reef Rest. for lunch, and my daughters (age 7 and 10) love it! It is a bit pricey, but my family likes it , so it's worth it to me. Good luck with your plans!

Congratulations on getting the biggest part of your plans taken care of!

Coral Reef....love it. The first time we ate there the kids were 4 and 6....we could barely keep our youngest still in her seat she was so excited about pointing out all the fish she recognized from the chart they gave us. Once the food was served, we were all happy with our food. Last year, my son, then 12 and I ate there on our trip together. It was excellent again. We are going back with the whole family again in August and I'm looking forward to it.

I'm glad you took the plunge and got your ressies made!! Maybe it'll spur your family on and they can get theirs done!! Don't stress anymore about that!!

I've always wanted to try the Coral Reef, but we never get the chance. I hope you do and you let us know what you think!!!!

We did Coral Reef for dinner when my sons were 3 & 4 - they loved it. See if you can get seated close to the aquarium. We sat back abit from the aquarium and our buys were running up there constantly.

PS. The food was good. Have fun!!!!!!!!

Congratulations!! You don't say when you will be there, but it looks like we will be there about the same time. We are attending the Oct 11th MNSSHP. It is so fun to finally take the plunge and get everything booked, huh? It makes it feel so much more real!

Congratulations on making the reservations!! I have no advice on Coral Reef, as we've yet to experience it. It certainly looks like a lot of fun though! Have fun deciding & planning!!
