Re: A Gargantuan Gathering of Passporter Peoples . . . PRE-TRIP -- PART TWO!!!!

<u> Pre-Trip . . . Part 2 . . . “The Soup Nazi” . . . </u> [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

<font color="darkblue">Now, I shall share with you our dining plans! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

So, when I first formulated my plan of attack, I knew Chef Mickey’s had to be in the plan! It’s become one we’ve got to do every trip now!

Once everyone started discussing MVMCP, I decided to try and get an ADR for Liberty Tree Tavern and that was tough at first! When I called (just a couple of days after they started allowing ADR’s to be made for MVMCP), they had nothing available for 2 people any earlier than 7:40pm . . . and that just wasn’t going to work!!! I waited a few more days, called back and spoke to a different CM and she told me “I have 6:05. Will that work for you?” Well, SURE!!! SO that was taken care of!!! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/082502yes_prv.gif[/img]

At 90 days out, I called and made the rest of the trip’s ADRs for just Emilie and I (including CRT!!!) . . . and at the time, it was including a lunch at Sci-Fi Dine In Theater for Nov. 30th. At somewhere around 80 days out, Mike decided he wanted to go along, so I called back and added him to a couple of the ADRs. At 60 days out, we started talking about the trip and he announced “I want to eat dinner at that Canadian place with the steak.” I told him that the chances of getting an ADR for dinner would be slim, if not impossible, but that I would try. Hey . . . I wanted so cheddar cheese soup and a filet just as much as he did!!! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Called the next day and, just as expected, the CM said “There’s nothing available for dinner that entire time frame.” Of course not!!! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] Yes, the Disney Dining CM was my own personal Soup Nazi . . . “NO SOUP FOR YOU!!!” I yelled that from the kitchen to Mike in the living room as soon as I got off the phone . . . he was bummed, but said "We could try to walk up for a reservation like we did in March!" (we totally lucked out on that one though . . . what are the chances of that happening twice?) I have tried calling for an ADR a couple of times since then and STILL no dice! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Once we changed the time for the Nov. 30th Osborne Lights meet at MGM, I cancelled my original dinner ADR at Sci-Fi and changed it to dinner at 50’s Prime Time, since Mike has been asking to go there since he first saw it in Dec. 2003 . . . we had to cancel our ADR on our Oct. 2004 trip and in March, my in-laws were “not interested in eating there again”, and I ended up cancelling the ADR I had already made for the 5 of us. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] They ate there in 2001 or something and said they were “not impressed” . . . WHATEVER!!! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img] I figured it was about time we decided for ourselves! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

So, here’s our tummies’ plan of attack . . .</font>

<u> Nov. 30th</u>
<font color="firebrick">4:10pm</font> – DINNER – <font color="darkblue"> 50’s Prime Time Café</font> (all three of us)

<u> Dec. 1st</u>
<font color="firebrick">9:30am</font> – BREAKFAST – <font color="darkblue">Crystal Palace</font> (just Emilie and I)
<font color="firebrick">6:05pm</font> – DINNER – <font color="darkblue">Liberty Tree Tavern</font> (again, just Emilie and I)

<u>Dec. 2nd</u>
<font color="firebrick">10:10am</font> – BREAKFAST – <font color="darkblue">CINDERELLA’S ROYAL TABLE</font> (all 3 of us!) [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/woot.gif[/img]

<u>Dec. 3rd</u>
<font color="firebrick">9:30am</font> – BREAKFAST – <font color="darkblue">Chef Mickey’s</font> (just us girls)

<u>Dec. 4th</u>
<font color="firebrick">NOTHING</font>!!!

<u>Dec. 5th</u>
<font color="firebrick">9:30am</font> – BREAKFAST – <font color="darkblue">1900 Park Fare</font> (just the girls again!)

<u>Dec. 6th</u>
<font color="firebrick">10:00am</font> – BREAKFAST – <font color="darkblue">Ohana</font> (all 3 of us . . . )

<font color="darkblue">Can you tell we appreciate breakfast? [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif[/img] My momma always told me it’s the most important meal of the day, you know! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

When we vacation, we usually eat opposite the way we do at home. At home, we usually eat a small breakfast (if we eat one at all), a small lunch then a big dinner . . . on vacation, we eat a large breakfast, then eat small meals and snack throughout the day!!! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Sooooooooooooooooooooo . . . that’s the plan so far . . . </font>[img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
<font color="firebrick">----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</font>

COMING UP NEXT: Pre-Trip . . . UPDATE!!! . . . “The Little Kicks” . . .

Your tummies' plan of attack (love it! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] ) looks great to me - sorry to hear about the soup nazi. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img] I'm still hoping you guys are able to get into Le Cellier - here's some extra [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/fairy2.gif[/img] [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/fairy2.gif[/img] [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/fairy2.gif[/img]
