We were a group of 11 & we left our name & were seated in less than 20 min. Our meal was great & so was the airconditioning!

I can't vouch as I still order the COBB salad for 2 as my meal. It's the only cobb I can find that's actually made the way it's supposed to be made. Not those small pieces of bacon & turkey & the huge pieces of lettuce that everyone else seems to think is a cobb.

I am changing my mind about por, we are now looking into the wilderness lodge. I just have fallen in love with that place, and I so want to stay there. Now if I can just get the money together.

POR looks very relaxing and lovely, I love to walk, it sounds perfect for me...
I'll likely rent a kayak or other watercraft also at POR...as I will be getting an AP and coming to WDW a lot, this may be one of the few times I spend staying on property so I intend to enjoy the resort to its fullest...

Wolfgang Puck is very good esp the pumpking ravioli. My daughter likes the sushi there as well.

There are still some places @ the parks that you can get into without ADR's so you won't have to go to DtD for that many meals. As mentioned keep call for ADR's tho also when you get there check with the concierge they can help as well.

Take a deep breath & do use Deb's site it is wonderful & user friendly. Have a great time planning it's much of the fun!
