Food and Wine? Sounds Divine!
Catchy right? When Im tired, I become a little goofy and kooky and started rambling last night to my DH about our trip coming up and mentioned in my long-winded sentence about how much food and drinks were going to partake in, and I asked him, Food and wine? in which the face I got was
and when he didnt answer I said, Sounds divine! So thats how the name for the TR came about.
For those that dont know me, my names Alicia. Im 29 and have been a lover of all things Disney since I was a wee one. Im a fan of every single Disney movie, with my favorites being Beauty and the Beast, Alice in Wonderland, Nightmare Before Christmas and Monsters Inc. This is my DS, who is now 10 months old and will be 1 when we go in October, and me on 4th of July
DS has a favorite character already. He loves Sulley from Monsters Inc!
DS has been to Disneyland twice and WDW once. His first trip to Disneyland was at 6 weeks and WDW at a little over 2 months. Im excited to see how hell do on this trip. Hes obviously way more active now, so it will be fun to see how he reacts to characters and different attractions.
This is my DH, Dan, who just turned the big 3-0 in July. He never really got into Disney until I came around. He somewhat likes Disneyland, but is in LOVE with WDW and the Disney Cruise Line. In fact, hes the one that made the ultimate decision to buy a contract with DVC in Spring of 2012 because he wants to go to WDW all the time! His favorite Disney movie is definitely Meet the Robinsons. You dont hear about that movie much, but he loves it! In case you cant tell, DH is on the right
Also along for the ride is my DM, whos age shall not be revealed. Shes the reason why I love Disney so much. My dad (who passed in 2007) and her would take my brother and I to Disneyland every year when we were little and our trips started dwindling down as we got older, but I sure do appreciate those trips now. My moms first trip to WDW was last December and it was actually her first time on a plane since 1996. She really enjoyed WDW so much, that shell get on a plane to visit again!
Now that introductions are out of the way, lets get down to the nitty gritty.
Dates: Saturday, October 5, 2013 Friday, October 11, 2013
Where: EVERYWHERE! SSR, AKV and BLT. Yes. Everywhere. I do have a waitlist for the first night at AKV, so if that goes through, the first 3 nights will be at AKV and the last three nights at BLT.
Purpose: To eat and drink at as many booths as our stomachs allows us! And to get DS's first haircut!
Our Daily Schedule:
Saturday, October 5
-Havent gotten our flights yet, but pretty sure well be flying out of LAX at 6am, arriving at MCO around 3pm
-I think we decided to rent a car for the first couple of days while transferring between resorts, so no ME going to the World

-Check in at SSR, 1 BR
-Go to DTD and grab some dinner
-DH and I want to make a stop at BCV to say hi to my friend Alison (franandaj) who will be hosting a dinner there with some other DISers and possibly grab a drink
Sunday, October 6
-Transferring to AKV Jambo House 1BR (unless waitlist comes through, skip this)

I'm not going to be a stickler on this plan. Some of these days i'm sure we'll end up back at Epcot. Well be getting 5 day Park Hoppers and for the first time for us, NO DINING PLAN! Every trip weve always purchased the dining plan and we were discussing it last night and decided to pay OOP for our ADRs. Were thinking with home much we could possibly be eating at F&W, we may not be hungry for all the food that comes with the dining plan. Not sure how Im going to like this. I like the convenience of the dining plan, but well see.
I cant believe were leaving in 2 months and Im barely starting this. But I hope youll join me on this new adventure!

Your plans looks great! Your DS is cuter than ever! So adorable.
I hope a wait-list comes through for you! It's going to be such a fun trip!
We both got scared so we don't know when to stop feeding him pureed food! Also, did Dug Baby get her teeth? Aside from the two bottom teeth that he has, one of his 'fangs' are coming out on the left side along with one other tooth next to it. You'd think with all his teeth that are coming in, he'd be able to do better with chunkier food.
I was telling Mary Ellen, i'm praying it goes through too. But i'd rather have one extra day at WDW than no day at all.
