Default DeToma Family Pre-Easter Madness Live TR

The cast:
Me (Rick, 53)
DW (Deb, forever 29)
DD (Michaela 8.5)

Location:
Our first ever split stay first 2 nights BCV, last 5 nights BWV Boardwalk view (also a first for us.) Sunday through Saturday.

Dining using TiW. Listed in order:
Shula’s dinner

Cape May Café breakfast
Coral Reef or Via Napoli lunch
Tutto Italia or Il Mulino dinner

50’s Prime time or Tusker House lunch
Yachtsman or Brown Derby dinner

Crystal Palace lunch
Citrico’s or Narcoosee’s dinner

50’s Prime time or Tusker house lunch (whichever park we don’t do the other day)
Kouzzina dinner

Crystal Palace or Ohana breakfast
Via Napoli lunch
Flying Fish or Puck Café dinner

Beaches and Cream or Le Cellier lunch


As you can see we often make extra reservations and cancel the ones we don’t need. We have a pretty good idea now of what we want so the extra’s will get cancelled when we arrive.

Besides visiting the parks and dealing with whatever crowds there might be we are going to do a few new things on this trip. One is the Easter Bunny meet and greet. We are not usually in the parks near Easter, but this year Easter coincides with MA school vacation week.

DD does not know but she is going on the Albatross Treasure Cruise. I think she is going to love this. She is also repeating the Wonderland Tea Party. No BBB this time. That will have to wait for our October trip which will be the day after her birthday.

We also want to try mini-golf at one of the courses.

We plan on visiting F&G Festival and doing some damage on pin sets.

Our goal is to try and focus on attractions we don’t normally see when the parks are less crowded.

I don’t bring a computer with me so I’ll be doing this report on my iPhone. Any pics I get a chance to take I’ll post at the end of the day. I’ll be using my Pentax Kx to get the good shots that I will post when I get home.

I will be online on my phone so I can make comments throughout the trip.

I use the Notes app to record info when we are standing in lines or at meals or on the buses and then at the end of the day I clean it up and post it.

Thanks! We have never been to BCV so we will be in SAB for sure. I need to see for myself what the hype is all about.

Wow! Now that is organized. I look forward to living vicariously through your family. If I may ask, what is BBB? There are just too many short forms, soon we won't even need words. TY & TTFN
