Anyone have WDW questions???

I am a self-professed WDW guru so I was just wanting to put my knowledge out there. Does anybody have a question about WDW. If I don't know the answer off the top of my head, but I will be SURE to find an answer for you.

OK. Here's my latest musing after reading Drince's "looking forward to" post. Everyone makes PS ressies in advanced. Is that REALLY a necessity or just a way to get a sure thing? Or, maybe it's just summer and Christmas that makes a difference.

I'd like to know where you think are the swankiest places in WDW to get a drink, have a meal, or just hang out?

Will the good folks at WDW still honor my River Country/Discovery Island combo ticket from 1988

PS's are a good idea and i'll tell you why. Younever knopw when a restaurant will be eat up with ppl. Take Ohana for example, When I went in May of 2004 there was very little wait time for ppl that didnt have a ps, BUT when I went this past May it was covered up as soon as it opened. This is why to get a ps. To make sure that you don't have a long wait. Other than that. Its useless, BUT its free! So why not go for it!

Also, I would suggest making your ps's for dinner around five. Thats when most of the restaurants start serving dinner. That means that most of the restaurants are closed. If you get there at 4:50 they will take you straight back and there will be no wait. This works especially well for Ohana and Chef Mickey's

The ps ressie # is:

407-WDW-DINE

Hope this helps you out NA!

It does! Thanks BDK. I just hate being regimented and having structured plans while on vacation. Hell, I hate it at home! I'm very much a go with the flow type of person most of the time. I found that having to make such plans for eating when I was really there to experience the Parks was a bid too much - although we did have PS for both California Grill and Boma.

OK, how about this one:

By and large you are talking to the uber-geeks of Disneyland here. (note: I do not dare to include myself in that elite group). We are talking folks that run through a mouse adventure faster than the average tourist can get a decent meal. People that not only notice but feel compled to comment anytime a new construction fence goes up. Folks who are on a first name basis with Jingles.

What would you say are the top five things a Disneyland aficionado extream would have to see while visiting WDW?

Note: If you say “Our larger castle” ya better duck!

Favorite Place to get a drink: I have to say that this would be the World Showcase at EPCOT. Wines and beers from around the world! I also recommend Ghirhadelli (spl.) at DTD for a great coffee.

Meals: I am all about Ohana. I love the Polynesian atmosphere and the great choice of meats and polynesian style vegatables. I also LOVE the banana and coconut bread! I also really enjoy Wolfgang Puck's place at DTD. If you want a real swanky, hep place to eat then here it is! and man its GOOD!!! I also recommend Fulton's Crab House and Brown Derby for uber swankiness!

To hang out: Go for Pleasure Island, and DON'T go for the clubs. My fav thing to do is to walk up and down that strip and just chill. There are also places to sit all through there and shops and things that are free to go in. They have now made Pleasure Island to where you can go walking down thru it and you don't have to pay unless you go into the premium clubs. I also enjoy chilling out at Casey's Corner in MK. Its right at the end of Main street and MAN I love to listen to the fellas that play the ragtime music.

Hope this helps you out!
