About 3:30 we’ll start heading over to Fort Wilderness and do the petting farm and pony rides, then we’ll eat at 5:30 at Trails End Buffet, then after dinner we’ll do the campfire and then the fireworks hayride!! (both firsts for us!)

Eighth Day in Park:
Probably park hopping catching the things we missed.
Lunch: Crystal Palace (1st time!)
Dinner: Fast Food

The other first for us will be moving 3 times in one trip. I’m a little apprehensive about this, but I’m excited about the experience non-the-less. We start out for four nights at Old Key West, then move to Saratoga Springs for four nights, then our last night at the Wilderness Lodge.

We will have regular AP’s and have the AP discount dining card. Between the DVC discount on AP’s (almost $400 discount) and the 20% Discount on food (almost $150) we are saving over $650 this trip! Yahoo!

By the way, there will be 24 of us going. It’s gonna be one fun time!!

WOW! Heather, your trip sounds absolutely incredible! What a blast it's going to be for 24 of you to be going together!

And you are getting to stay at 3 great places... I am jealous for sure!

For a second, when I first read the beginning sentence, I thought you said "well be going to WDW FOR 79 days..."

I was like, HOLY COW!!

Oh wow you've got such an awesome trip planned!! It all looks amazing!! I'm sure you've thought of this, but have you ever eaten at Biergarten in Germany? I can't say enough about this place - it's awesome! It popped into my head when I saw you were thinking about a meal in Germany on your sixth day. :)

79 days....now that's more like it!!!! Unfortunatley, I edited it to read correctly!! I sure would love 79 days at WDW, though!

My sister (A Goofy Family) and her family all enjoy it, and it is my bosses FAVORITE restaurant anywhere (not just WDW) We went to the Biergarten back in 1994 and really enjoyed the show and the food. We may just do that! Thanks for the tip!

For most 1/2 of the trip, my parents and Aunt and Uncle will be in Vero Beach and also doing non-disney stuff (gasp!) in Orlando. So that brings down the group to 20.

Almost all of these meals will be spent with my sister and her family and then several others all 20 of us will eat together as a group. We will all be doing our own thing, mostly staying at the same park each day and then meeting up to eat together and share our day. We had a group of 17 in 2003 and it worked out GREAT doing it this way!

It looks like you have a great trip planned. I don't know if I could handle a group of 24 but it sounds like you should do alright!
Don't forget when you buy lunch at Flame Tree (which we loved) that you can buy a voucher that gets you your lunch and then a drink and snack later in the day. We found this to be a great deal!
