Hey lady!
I'm in!! Looking forward to seeing you and Jay also during that time!!
Hi Jeanne! Thanks for stopping in - we're looking forward to seeing you and Marcel this year, too!
AAHHH! I am late to this fantastic party of drinking, eating, drinking some more, snacking, having another drink, meeting up with other Disers, oh and did I say drinking? After all that is our favorite part of Disney right?
The only thing is that I have to miss it this year! Bummer that we are going at different times again but hey, please leave me some of that yummy raspberry cocktail thing from the Poland stand at the F&W ok? I know you looove it so but try to control yourself
Hope you guys have a fantastic time, cannot wait to read, and drool, all about it!
Hiya Nicki! I was really hoping we were going to overlap this year, but it was not meant to be ... maybe the fates were afraid between you and Todd and me and Jay that there would be no alcohol left?
As for the "beverage" in Poland ... in the words of Frodo Baggins ... "I wish that drink had never come to me."
October 18th:
lunch at Sci-Fi
dinner at Victoria & Allbert's
This is an interesting combination - I'll be dying to hear which one you liked best
Yep ... it does look strange, doesn't it? But that's where Guest X and Guest Y wanted to dine after they check in Sunday. Jay and I figure we'll just have ourselves some alcoholic milkshakes and split an order of fries.
We think the only way V&A could be better is if they showed the cheesy B clips from Sci-Fi in
their dining room!
We also are subject to family for five days of our October trip... my white zindandel swilling SIL who told me a few weeks ago at a family event "oh, you're having fruit for dessert instead of ice cream cake - that's good" and her husband who wants to know in advance what particular lens to use for his camera each day he's at DW so he can take his usual 5,000 pictures and is a teetotaler - lots of F&W fun to be had!
I have no one to blame but myself.
And I don't really mean that the way it sounds ... it's just that we wanted to do something nice and we did ... but then we forgot that means we have to worry about other people now (and can't book that signature dinner at the Wave that we wanted to try). No good deed goes unpunished, right?
Brenda - off the top of my head I will say that we really enjoy Coral Reef. I think their lunches may be better these days than their dinners, but we have never had a bad meal there. There is sometimes a wait. We have always thought it was worth the wait.
Thanks for the input, Elin.
I'm in! And by the way, I was ridiculously excited to see that you have started your pre-trippie! I really need to get a life!
I'm pretty sure I need a life, too ... nine weeks out from vacation and I'm already dreaming of food.
Yikes! I take a day off the boards and I miss the start of your TR! I knew there was a reason the computer was calling to me this morning. Brenda your dining choices look great and you have a few that are new to us also, so I'll be waiting to hear your reviews.
Thanks for joining in, Alison! We're looking forward to trying some new places on this trip ... I hope they live up to our expectations.
Late to the party as usual but at least I'll be at the right party on the 17th
Your dining looks fantastic and I can't wait to read about each and every meal (and wish I was there a few more days so I could have joined you at Il Mulino since I haven't gotten there yet).
No one is ever late to this party ... remember, it never ends! Can't wait to see you in October!
I loved waking up this morning and finding this!
I am so sorry I won't be in Disney on the 17th to enjoy your party with you and all the other friendies.
Welcome aboard! It's too bad you can't join us, but we'll be thinking about ya! And we'll take good pictures.
We are in and can't wait for more!
Really?? We all can't go now?? I am too excited!
Hiya Chelsi!
I feel the same way ... can't we just fast forward to October, magically dropping twenty pounds at the same time?
Excellent!!
Great to see you are planning another F&WF adventure. Send the updates, ramblings, and plans this way when ready. I loved the Flanders and Captain McAllister comments. Question: What is the basis for the title?? Is there a back story??
Welcome Mr. Scorpio! I finally chose this title because it's just so silly, especially when taken out of context. Remember the Pie Man episode? That was just on Tuesday night and I couldn't get "Pie that Brownie, Fruitcake!" out of my head. I think it strikes just the right tone of total nonsensical gibberish that's perfect for me and my reviews.
Also,
very excited to see you planning to tackle some new territory, namely Il Mulino, Fresh, and The Yachtsman. But, admittedly, I am most excited about the WSAD II.
I will have bail money set aside, just in case the is any 'unpleasantness'....
Rob
Well, you are partly to blame for our choosing some of those new places, so thanks in advance (we hope!).
And we are very pumped about WSAD II ... we've been training all summer!
yay another food report from Bendy! So what resort are you staying at this time?
Hiya! We're at the Beach Club Villas this time, so lots of easy access to Epcot! Thanks for joining us!
OF course I am in!!
I am still hoping to see you somehow on the 23rd when we arrive..my eyes will be peeled for a bendy and jay sighting!
your line up sounds GREAT!
Hi Gina! Thanks for stopping by - we will have to work something out on the 23rd ... it's a moral imperative!
I've got Coral Reef too, in September on the Overhyped Disney Restaurant Tour. It's nuts because it's like a cave in there and lately it is full of what a friend of mine calls the "small screaming people." But I have lunch there because I want to try the blackened catfish.
I'll be waiting to hear what you think about it.
