Thanks! really looking forward to it..first "real" vacation we have had in 7 years

Lee3691 · 11-19-2018, 08:25 AM

I think we are going to go the first week of the year. I really don't want to buy tickets though until we are in Florida, just in case. Anyone have recommendations for fast pass for last minute tickets?

YouNeverKnow25 · 11-19-2018, 09:13 AM

cross your fingers and pray, if that's your kind of thing

You have experience with kids - you want to come and help wife and I? I'll make sure my wife doesn't wear here UT clothing.

DMBstandUP1984 · 12-04-2018, 05:42 AM

Well..I can never not go at Christmas time now

DMBstandUP1984 · 12-06-2018, 05:23 PM

I really liked the Character lunch at the Garden Grill and the Character brunch at Tusker House

Wouldn’t do the dinner at Be Our Guest next time but would do the lunch at royal table again.

TMoore4075 · 12-07-2018, 04:58 AM

Never did brunch at Tusker. Might have to look into that. Done dinner there the last 2 times and that was fun. We were one of the last dinner times when my kid was 4.5 (2015) and he loved dancing around the place with the characters.

we made our reservations for 1030 so we were there for breakfast and lunch lol. But yea it was awesome my kid loved the characters and the fact they had
a buffet bar that was lower to the ground for her to get her own food...which ended up being bacon and a plate full of dry cereal

Sounds like a great breakfast to me.

It's beautiful for Christmas. Packed, but beautiful. Have a blast!

Lee3691 · 12-10-2018, 09:32 AM

Does Xmas stuff stay up for the first week of January?

Thanks - our trip is planned Jan 2 - Jan 7, so we should be good

DMBstandUP1984 · 12-10-2018, 10:20 AM

All the signs when I was there had Jan 6 as the end date

Yea, I feel like they will still mostly be up. Main Street USA during Christmas and the fall is just magical. Enjoy!

fridge112887 · 12-10-2018, 11:55 AM

These are a good idea. I have the bakery shop candle so far. Hope to add the Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion candles soon.

DMBZeppelin · 12-10-2018, 11:29 PM

Got here Sunday night, and our first dinner was California Grill.

I don’t know if I caught them in rare form, but it was insanely good. Honestly one of the best steaks I’ve ever had.

That place is incredible, as was the steak!

barefoot · 12-11-2018, 06:14 AM

California Grill is top notch, we try to get late reservations and watch the fire works show from the observation deck.

mdel21 · 12-11-2018, 06:35 AM

We went to Disney with the basketball programs in college. I got a reservation for CG for dinner/fireworks and the girlfriend dumped me prior to going. I should have went anyways.

DMBstandUP1984 · 12-14-2018, 12:36 PM

Can anyone, maybe Jake explain how the Disney vacation club works?

it's a time share. that's all.

if you don't mind the idea of a time share, it's fine. The only real benefit is that the hotels at Disney are outstanding - Saratoga Springs, Beach Club, Key West - those are really nice.

Thanks!

After our trip a couple weeks ago we want to make Disney a yearly trip and trying to find the best way to do it. Probably not DVC lol

UCFish · 12-14-2018, 06:04 PM

Check out disboards.com

Plenty of info

crb60 · 12-20-2018, 07:20 AM

First day back to work after a long weekend at Disney. Stayed at French Quarter and that was great, will definitely stay again. Christmas was nice, but definitely prefer the fall and Food & Wine.

crashintonickdm · 12-20-2018, 09:16 AM

Month and a half and I’ll be back

Pumped.

Lee3691 · 12-20-2018, 11:42 AM

12 days and we are heading out. Maybe I should buy my tickets soon

Has fastpass changed in the last 2 years?
