Food for the Timeshare!

Mom & I were talking and she wanted me to start thinking of what type of food to have in the rooms. If I could get some suggestions of what a few favorites would be for breakfast, snacks, & maybe lunch that would be very helpful. I believe we should only buy food in 3-4 day increments to ensure all the groceries get used. Let me know what all of you think on this!

Alternate Itinerary Schedule

Papa mentioned that he can save a GINORMOUS amount of money if the tickets do not have the park hopping option on them. I did a little minor tweakin on our little suggested travel thing and it totally works without park hopping. Just a couple things change.
