Stupid Guest Tricks

There are other packages available that don't cost quite so much. Look here.

I like the bottom two, just for price. I would LOVE to do the most expensive one, but that's a bit out of any price range I expect to have in the next year.

The only difference is that you get a cryptic amenity and one night stay in a hotel or two if a couple signs up. So it is really now worth the extra bucks just to sleep in a disney hotel.

Thanks, I didn't even notice that there were cheaper ones. Maybe I can talk my husband into one of those.

More input regarding dining ... Last time I was out there, I ate 3 times at the hotel in Paradise Pier ... PCH Grill? Once for dinner, once for a kitchen sink (borrowed from the menu at Beaches & Cream, I'm pretty sure), and once for the character breakfast. All were enjoyable. I would not mind eating there again.

I think Wallaby's already covered the fact that Blue Bayou should probably be on our "must-see" ("must-eat"?) list.

And I'm sure I speak for the group when I say that we're not going to hold our breath, but if we were offered an invitation to eat at Club 33, we would, after regaining consciousness, immediately accept.

It's also been mentioned that we want to do the Walk In Walt's Footsteps tour. I don't know what days this tour is offered, or how soon we need to book it, but if it usually books up quickly, we may need to think about that one soon.

I already thought about that myself. According to what I read on DL's website the tour can be booked no more than 30 days in advance. We'll need to figure out the day we want to do it and book the tour exactly 30 days out.

What date? The price is one day's admission to DL. It doesn't include DCA.

The Grill is the restaurant downstairs and opposite of the Japanese restaurant. The made me a beef with gravy that was to die for and was gluten free. I want to go back so much but fear, bad knees and money and more fear stop me. I miss that restaurant as it was one of the few safe places at DLR and they spoiled me there. It was right after adjusting to and learning about celiac, they were so good about the menu.

You should also consider eating at the Celebration Barbecue, it's a new restaurant we're opening for the What Will You Celebrate? promotion.

You'll be fine, I have heard of people being able to book that tour the day of.

Also, I was in the park today, and I noticed a bunch of Guest Relations CMs walking around with Celebration binders, so I would venture to guess we might have a Celebration tour in the works as well.

I'm interested in the BBQ! ;)
Club 33 sounds fun (to see all of the Disney History there), but I hear the food is very expensive....Is there any inexpensive way to see it?
Of Course, the BBQ might cost, too....any details?
