Day 1 ..
Leave PHX at 1250am, change plans in ATL, arrive in MCO at 928am. Take the Disney Magical Express to Pop Century Resort. Grab our Key to the World and RUN to Magic Kingdom!!!
130pm reseration at The Plaza Restaurant at the Magic Kingdom. Standard American fare. Nothing fancy.
Spend the day at the Magic Kingdom, as I believe it should ALWAYS be the first and last resort you do when visiting any of the Disney parks. The park is only open until 9pm so it'll be an early night for us. Dinner then rest. Then again, after the overnight flight the night before, I think we'll need the rest!
945pm dinner at Narcoossee's, located at the Grand Floridian Resort. This is one of the most popular restaurants I've read about in online posts. Seems that alot of people love this place. It'll be a first for both of us and it does require 2 dining credits. I just look forward to trying many new places, this being one of the many.
Day 2 ..
525pm Hollywood & Vine at Hollywood Studios. This is a character buffet restaurant. This, again, will be a first. Hoping to snag in on the Fantasmic dinner/show deal. I was having no luck trying to book the package through Disney dining phone reservations so thought I'd just try to sneak in my own online reservation and mention it upon arrival. Can't hurt to ask .. worst they can say is no, right? Also, just read that there are no characters at the dinner service .. YAY!
700pm or 830pm (two chances!) to see Fantasmic at Hollywood Studios. (I've seen this at Disneyland many times but have somehow missed going to the one at WDW for the past two years somehow).
Magic Kingdom is open until 11pm this evening. Definately a late night for us. Perfect!!
Day 3 ..
1200pm Les Chefs de France at Epcot. (Heard on boards that the lunch is better than the dinner and Remy makes an appearance).
900pm Illuminations show at Epcot. I've seen this several times already. I have yet to have a decent place to see it at though. They're doing it every night we're there so maybe I'll try a different country to change viewpoints any night we're there. We'll see .. maybe we'll just skip it, as I've already mentioned we've seen this already.
Hollywoodl Studios is open until 10pm. Plan to hang out here until dinner reservation time.
955pm Cap'n Jack's Restaurant at Downtown Disney.
Day 4 ..
100pm Rose & Crown Pub at Epcot.
800pm Spirit of Aloha luau at the Polynesian Resort. This is something we're only doing because of the dining plan. This is not something we'd normally go in for, out of pocket. I'm stunned to read that alcoholic beverages and beer are included with the dinner, which is served family style. Sounds like it'll be a fun, interesting night!
All parks are closed early this evening so a night of luau and booze will be the end of us! Maybe I do need to rethink our breakfast reservation for the next day.. NO .. MUST STOP CHANGING RESERVATIONS! I AM DONE!!! (ha!)
Day 5 ..
1010am Supercalifragilistic breakfast at the Grand Floridian Resort. This is the character breakfast we chose to stick with. Those known to make appearances: Mary Poppins, Alice from Wonderland, the Mad Hatter .. all winners! Oooh, and I hope they break out with Big Bertha!!
730pm Yak & Yeti Restaurant at the Animal Kingdom Park.
Animal Kingdom park is actually open until 8 tonight. Never have been to AK past 5pm. Curious what goes on. Do the animals sleep??
Day 6 ..
340pm Mama Melrose Ristorante Italiano at Hollywood Studios.
700pm one last chance to catch Fantasmic at Hollywood Studios.
850pm Jiko at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. It's African food, so outside our comfort zone. Again, trying it because of the dining plan. Menu looks interesting.
Another night where none of the parks are staying open late. A chance for us to enjoy dinner and an evening "in".
Day 7 ..
1115am 50's Prime Time Cafe at Hollywood Studios. Ate lunch and dinner here last year. LOVED the food .. very much good comfort food. Plus, the decor is exactly what I see my house as. 50's thrift store kitsch. I wanna take EVERYTHING home! I've heard the milkshakes are kick ass but I've never ventured yet. I can attest their chicken pot pie and roast beef sandwich are both some of the best I've ever had!
300pm Sci Fi Dine In Theater at Hollywood Studios. (Again, only sticking with a milkshake here as I've not had good experiences with the food here - it's quite bland. Going here is ALL about the atmosphere!)
945pm San Angel Inn at Epcot.
Epcot is open until MIDNIGHT!! I love Epcot at night. There's just a different mood about it all. Also notice more adults at Epcot than at the other parks. So glad there's not too many rides here and that the kids get bored with the World Showcase. Nice for us "grown-ups".
Day 8 ..
1050am Cat Cora's Kouzzina at the Boardwalk Resort.
850pm California Grill at the Contemporary Resort. This is also a 2 credit dinner but I feel the experience alone is worth it. (I mentioned this place in my previous post). Have also heard the food is great; one of the best in the WDW complex. Also, many have mentioned the kid factor here is low. Let's hope for that to be true!
Magic Kingdom is open until 10pm, but we'll be calling it a night after dinner. We have a 7am flight the next morning. The MK fireworks are at 8pm, which we'll attempt to view from the balcony at the CA Grill (they said we could!) and then enjoy a nice long leisurely romantic dinner. Awwwwww. I believe the perfect end to a great vacation!!
