Hi everyone! :) I'm new to postings, but I've been reading MousePad for quite a while. Everyone gives such great info, so I thought I'd pose a question...
My DH and I have ressies Dec. 4 - 8 at GCH (it's a very special trip; anniversary, celebrating some major weight loss and reaching a personal milestone: we'll finally be clear to TTC (try to conceive!) :eek: (Yes, if the room is a rockin', don't come a knockin'... :D j.k.!) Seriously, we honeymooned at DLH and we've always wanted to come back around Christmas, so this trip is six years in the making. But, we're a little unsure on the dates...
In your opinions, given that Candlelight Procession will make Sat. and Sun. a zoo, would it be smarter to visit Sat. - Wed. or Sun. - Thurs.? Sat. - Wed. I think would be better in terms of getting a room request (we're hoping for a king bed) plus more chances at seeing CP (although we're contemplating the dining package - but more on that in a minute). Sun - Thurs, however, would give us a full day in a pretty-empty park on Wed. since Mon. & Tues. are closing early for CM parties (which is ok with us since there's DTD - besides, CMs should have some fun, too!). What do you think?
As long as I'm asking questions, :rolleyes: , here's another... does anyone know what the policies are regarding sharing entrees at some of the restaurants (like Blue Bayou, Jazz Kitchen, Storytellers, etc.)? Do they frown on that and charge extra plate fees? Reason being, my DH and I have had gastric bypass surgery and can only eat small portions. Nevertheless, we'd really like to try some of the restaurants - luckily, we like the same kind of food! (As for CP - we really would like preferred seating, which is why we're contemplating the dining ressies. We hope they allow us some kind of alternative - like spending $XX at the restaurant and $XX at Candy Palace or some other souvenir shop. Otherwise, we might be ending up with three cheesecakes!).
Sorry for the long post, thanks in advance for all your help! :D
