I want to find a great place to eat, that is not too expensive or stuffy before we go out to party at Pleasure Island!

Almost like a rite of passage from being a "kid" to being and "adult". BTW that "adult" thing is vastly overrated. Hold on to the "kid" and you'll never take yourself to serious.

Originally Posted By BlazesOfFire Thanks guys! Now I just have to convince the others to go there too. Its just so convenient if we stay in the Contemporary, which I do often,. and always pass by the fun that is Chef Mickey's! Oh and I am still a kid, I know. My grandmother always asks me when im going to grow up when i tell her when im going to disney (which is a lot). Whats the hurry? Its my escape from realty...the same realty where i do have ti play grown up *cries* lol jk

The princesses especially LOVED them!
Originally Posted By BlazesOfFire I think I like that tiara idea Thanks!! I am so excited!!! But I am seeing the the Contemporary may be booked!! I think I will pick Port Orleans as a back up plan (cuz they have easy transportation to Downtown Disney) and keep calling up to see if I can get my Tower room until then! I still want to go to Chef Mickey's though.

The Disney Store usually has their Halloween items 50% around the week of Halloween. The Contemporary is my very fav resort! I've only been lucky enought to stay their once, but we did have a tower room with a MK view. It was the greatest! I have to say that Port Orleans Riverside is another one of my favs.
