OK....OH DEAR LAWD SOMEBODY STOP ME. I just popped for the Festival of Fantasy Parade Dining Package. IT MADE SENSE AT THE TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No. No, it did not. Even, worse, DS is now convinced that it's our best lunch option. Breathtakingly awful marinara is in my future. #DisneyProblemsOK....
I'm going to count to three and snap my fingers.
Then you'll wake up from this nightmare.
One..Two. Three
SNAP.
Did it work?
Sorry......
Had our FP+ window open today. No hiccups aside from getting the time wrong (we're in the UK) and panic-called our travel agent because we couldn't access it but turns out we were an hour early! We got everything we wanted, SDD went pretty quickly but we got 'em, only one we missed out on was Na'vi River Journey so will just have to brave the queue for that one.
Unfortunately though we've had a slight mishap with our booking where we've extended our trip by 2 days and our travel agent has failed to tell Disney that we're now on the 21-day ticket and MDE still showed the 14-day pass, so we haven't managed to book any FP+ for those two days (one being 4th July) so those have likely gone now which is gutting, the positive is we've got everything we wanted but this is beyond our control and won't get sorted until at least Tuesday as it's a holiday weekend.

Oh hey nothing like a somewhat impromptu trip and you're getting the family together a bit too, awesome! I hope the GFs are on their best behavior!
Sorry......
That was the only trick I ever learned and I'm not very good at it.
The Marinara reminds me of an off brand catsup with a shake of store bought Italian seasonings dropped in.
Tony's Scampi isn't bad though.

Okay, so, Pete & Crew reviewed it last June, and they had a new executive chef who'd been there about 6 months, and came out to talk to them at the end of the meal. She was apparently VERY open to all the critiques (way more than I would EVER have imagined), and Pete was actually fairly complimentary of his meal. Ranked it a 7. Charles and Steve were kind of meh, Sean HATED it, but the info that came out of it included 1) they're making all their pasta in house now, 2) the sauce has ingredients that come from a can, but does not, itself, come from a can anymore, and 3) the tiramisu is awesome. I've also scoured the web looking for reviews in the last year, and there's no question it's improving. It's not drop dead WONDERFUL, but I'm not quite as icked out as I was at first.

Bottom line, I can definitely recoup the ticket price with the meal, and because I LOVE that parade and have NEVER been happy with our viewing locations, I'm just going to suck it up and do it. We've got HEA Dessert Party that evening, so I can load up on cheeseburger eggrolls if necessary.
OH!!! And an earlier ToT FP opened for our arrival day, so I am a happy happy planner right now.
I know, and I deserve it.
Keep trying! I wasn't able to get SDD on our FP date, but over a week later, after trying multiple times a day, one early morning I tried and snagged a 9:30am FP for SDD! No one in my house understood why I was doing the happy dance so early in the morning in bed.
