That gift card was such a thoughtful gift! You have a beautiful family.
I love how you and CS always dress Disney. It's amazing!!!
Thank you so much! It really was a thoughtful gift. Who knew my family could be so nice, lol.
Thank you!! We try our best. I dress more for comfort, Chunkysis is the real fashionista.
Your dinner looks DELISH!! I never think about booking ADRs for restaurants at the resorts, and I don't know why!!?!? Every time I see someone write about one they look amazing. Rob and I did the Highway in the Sky monorail dine around on our trip and everything we tried at The Wave, Poly and Grand Floridian was out of this world. I will definitely need to look into more resort dining on future trips.
Resort dining is much better than in park dining I think, with a few exceptions. I have really enjoyed most of the meals we have had at the resorts.
I'm going to do Highway in the Sky next! It sounds so cool.
I seriously got tears in my eyes at your family's very thoughtful gift!!! Then, I was enraged because I ALWAYS plan our Disney trips down to the most minute detail....and they never even thank me!! Now, I'm jealous
Aww thank you. It really was sweet and so unexpected.
Haha I know the feeling. 99.9% of the time I plan and execute on my own. I'm sure your family is very grateful, but I think some people just don't know how much planning it takes!
It is, haha!
This is hilarious
She was having a karate kid moment!
I need to show DH this, he doesn’t want to take kids there and I want to go back so badly
The kids did fine there. I think if you eat early it won't be a big deal at all as it's not typically crowded at around 5pm.
This is do sweet and you totally deserve this
Thank you!! It's nice to be appreciated although it is rare.
After what feels like an eternity away, I'm back and of course had to get caught right up on your TR! Sounds like some lovely meals between your Ohana breakfast and your Yachtsman dinner - yum!
And how absolutely sweet of everyone to get you a gift card!!!
Hi Tracy! Welcome back! Still awaiting for your next update!
It was a great day of meals, AK fun and a great dinner at Yachtsman. The gift was just icing on the cake. It was unexpected but such a lovely surprise!
Your family looks so cute at Ohana breakfast, but tbh, the giant Lilo really gives the me the heebie jeebies.
Thank you! Haha That is true...the Lilo is not to scale!
You are the line-skipping queen.
It all comes down to planning!! Everyone makes fun of me for waking up crack of dawn to make FPs but they are not lauging when I am bypassing them in line at Flight of Passage!
OMG, this looks delicious.
It is one of the best pre meal bread services on property (that is included with the meal)
Just getting caught up - the gift card was such a nice gesture. I'm glad that all of your hard work and planning was appreciated!
Thank you! It's nice to feel appreciated even though it was unexpected!
I love all the themed outfits at your Ohana breakfast!
Haha Thank you! I'm glad Kelly got into it as well. Chunky sis lent her a dress so now she was Lilo!
Glad to hear the love for Yachtsman Steakhouse - we haven't been there since 2009 and are trying it again in March.
Hope you have a great time at Yachtsmans, It's a must do for us, not on all trips, but for a longer week-long trip, we always look forward to it.
Another fantastic trip report! I really enjoy the ones you write.
: I am really impressed that you could plan a trip for so many people, and I think it's very thoughtful of them to give you that gift card. I am sure you won't have any trouble spending it. Yachtsman looks incredible. We keep meaning to try it but we never have. Maybe next time! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much and thanks for reading!
It wasn't too bad once I got everyone linked up to
MDE so it was easy to make ADRs and FP for them. They left all the planning up to me but sometimes it's hard to figure out what the kids might like but I think I did ok.
The gift was was so sweet of them. Sometimes I feel like everyone takes my Disney planning skills for granted so it was nice to feel appreciated.
Yachtsman is great! It's just such a nice classic steakhouse and even better because it's at Disney at the beautiful Yacht Club. Hope you get to try it in the future!
