Sorry to hear about the lack of fireworks, but it will still be magical. Can't wait to hear about your trip! I love DLR trip reports :-)

Yes..

For some reason, otherwise neighborly people would consider this a nuisance.

And hire lawyers..

And obtain restraining orders!

And those never end well..

I am going to write down the unusual happenings this time. I seem to forget a lot these days. LOL

SnazzyCMB · 04-03-2008

Quartz, as you saw, we're staying at Grand Californian-we are using our DVC points, but not for the villas, as they aren't finished yet.
We are definitely making an ADR for Napa Rose. Not sure where else yet. I looked at the menu for Blue Bayou, and it doesn't seem like food we would enjoy. It's two adults, and we've done character meals to death at WDW, so I am not looking to do that either. Since its so short, we were just planning on napa rose and fantasmic dessert adrs, and playing everything else by ear. I think we'd like to do another ADR since we're not doing the dessert buffet thing. What about you? Anything I may be missing?

Hey Snazzy,

I think we are going to do Blue Bayou, I love

the Monte Cristo and the atmosphere. We are going to do Goofys Kitchen for Breakfast one morning. I have kiddos and they have put in a request. Other then that, we are open. I want to try Catal in DTD, their menu looked yummy, and my son wants to go ESPN Zone. I will say this about DL, a lot less stress with planning compared to WDW. I kinda like that!!

Can't wait!!!

Hi,
We frequently visit DL Mon-Thurs. On more than one occassion, DL had fire works even though they were not listed to do so. I asked a CM about it and she said they do unscheduled shows often when fine tuning things. So I send you pixie dust that you might see some!

Sorry you're going to miss the fireworks. Any way you can add that Friday night? Then you'd get them...

We had our own disappointment. 4 of our group wanted to do the private VIP tour. It was $75 per hour/4 hour minimum - and then we could get preferred seating at F! (no snack box though)/Fireworks/Electrical Light Parade and a few other things the same day -- so we were totally on board for $75 per person. The day before we could book it for our dates, they changed it to $125 per hour/6 hour minimum. That took it from $75 a person to over $187 a person!!!

I was SOOOO looking forward to that tour.

BTW - it is no longer a dessert BUFFET at F! --- it's a dinky snack box with stuff like a cookie, chocolate covered strawberry etc. It is no longer worth the exorbitant price they want for it. (maybe if you're going peak season...)

Nope, my son is on a competive baseball team and we have a tournament that weekend. We need to be home on Friday.

I have seen these fireworks before, so at least I have that!

Sorry to hear about the VIP tour. I hate when that happens, you look foward too and plan for and it goes bust. Always something!!
