Dining at Walt Disney World: ‘Til Dining Plan Do Us Part

I have always been a skeptic of the Disney Dining Plan that is offered to resort guests. My wife and I don’t have children so when we go to the parks we don’t “need” to eat on a schedule. We would always pack food to eat in the room for breakfast and if we got hungry during the day we would stop. Also, the thought of having to keep track of credits, where you eat, etc seemed like more of a hassle to me. Read more

Dining at Disney World: Diary of a Mad Disney Planner

 

Minnie and I are going back “home” in February. We have reserved a room at Pop Century for six days and five glorious nights. I have never used the Disney Dining Plan nor have I seen a need. We don’t have kids and usually just stop and get quick service if we are hungry and make one or two ADR’s a trip. So the need to have “scheduled” meal times really didn’t make it’s way into our plans. Read more

Karen grew up in the Boston area and traveled to Disney World many times with her parents and sister. Always staying at the Fort Wilderness Cabins gave the trips a feeling of a home away from home. It also started the tradition of attending the Hoop Dee Doo Review on each trip! Somehow that show sparked her interest in the Disney College Program. Which she did in the fall of 2002, working as a hostess @ Captain Jacks in Downtown Disney. Now as an adult, Karen finds herself traveling to the parks on a yearly basis! Photography has always been a hobby of Karen’s, but over the past few years it has become her passion. It’s even taken her to her favorite place! The Make a Wish Foundation sent a family to Disney for a week and Karen was lucky enough to be their photographer of choice! She got to tag along and photograph their memories being made. She hopes to get that experience again someday! You can find more of Karen’s photography on her site www.KPportraits.com.
