Dining at Disney Results (Part 2)

 This is the latest, and hopefully final, entry about the results of trying to make dining reservations at Disneyland Paris. If you didn't read it yet or need a refresher, here's a link to the Dining Reservation Results Part 1.

Apparently, the tips online to "just keep randomly checking" are really spot on. That's exactly what I did up until this morning.  Whenever the thought would pop in my head, I'd open the app and click "book table" and see what came up. Downtown would appear periodically, but on dates or at times that we didn't really want. Walt's was never there. I just kept checking...and eventually I did find a decent reservation for Downtown on some random afternoon when I was bored during a work conference call and snatched that up.

I haven't actually looked again for the past week, because I spoke to my amazing Disney Travel Agent who said she would also try by calling to see what was up. She wasn't able to get us anything, either because the dates hadn't been released, or they were already booked - no one was quite sure. 🤷 Our backup plan was to see if we could get a walk-up table, and if not, just head over to the "Disney Springs" (I know that's not what it's called there) area and see who had openings. 

Then today - for reasons unknown - I decided to just book whatever was open for our final lunch day, just so we had something. We could always cancel later. And lo! and behold! Walt's was there! With times we'd even prefer! 🙌🎈🎉🎉🥳🥳

And so, here is our final reservation list...at least, for now. The way this trip has been going, I am not counting on this actually being what happens, but we'll see! LOL 

(Side note: I seriously considered hiding dates and times from this screenshot. However, I don't see anything here that could be used to steal our reservation unless you know our names, and our house will not be unoccupied while we're away so I don't think we are at risk of a break-in or other issues. Do you think I should take it down or hide anything?)
