Almost Vacation!!

WooHoo!! Yup, almost vacation time here, and I am pretty sure I am annoying everyone with my vacation. I can't stop talking about it. Well, I do have a good reason.

First, the last vacation I took was last year in April in Myrtle Beach. But, no husband - I went with my family. It was fun, but very short. I drove down with Danielle, Mark and little Jack on Friday after work and we got there sometime on Saturday (no stopping). And then I flew out on Wednesday. Wonderful flight minus the 1 hour taking off late and waiting on the pavement at PLB for one hour. And the trip was GREAT! Ok, so it was cold - but it was GREAT.

Second, I don't think I have EVER been on a vacation with my husband. When we were dating we went to Maine (great shopping), but that was almost 3 years ago. And we all know I have yet to have a honeymoon. So this vacation is LONG OVERDUE.

Well, so more good news with the vacation. I went to make my Advance Dining Reservations (ADR) last Monday, and since it was so close to vacation time - almost everything was booked! We really wanted Le Cellier Steakhouse in Epcot, and the Coral Reef Restaurant in Epcot as well (Epcot seems to have THE BEST food), but both were BOOKED SOLID! So I settled on Tony's in Magic Kingdom at 8:05 on Saturday, and Rose & Crown Pub on Sunday. Oh well, still good food. But then I found www.disboards.com - great resource for EVERYTHING DISNEY - from WDW, to DL, to Disney Cruises. And I posted on the ADR that Ryan and I are going on our honeymoon and looking to dine at those two places. Wouldn't you know it? A wonderful lady offered me her late lunch at Le Cellier on Saturday. I picked it right up, since after looking at the MK schedule - we couldn't eat dinner and see the fireworks! Oh no! So now, lunch at 2:15 on Saturday at Le Cellier and I changed Sunday's dinner to the 50's Prime Time Diner at "Hollywood" (the new name for MGM). Le Cellier is a french steakhouse, and 50's Prime Time Diner is a "home cooked meal" with Mom, Dad, and the rest of the family serving you dinner! How neat? And if you don't eat your veggies - NO DESERT! That should be a neat one!

Better news - I will have to confirm this when we get there, but you can check in online now for your WDW Resort Hotel. So I did, of course. And what room do we have booked? A water view room! Now, I payed for a standard room (cause water view would have been like $100 more), but um.... maybe a nice upgrade for the honeymoon! I will find out on FRIDAY! Another plus - WDW does cakes! Yes, cakes - and they can deliver them to your room. So I ordered a cake (small one) for $20 - it is DOUBLE CHOCOLATE... yummy. It will be in the room before we get there on Friday. Yea!
