The proposed park-of-the morning schedule is Disneyland on Monday/Wednesday/Friday and DCA on Tuesday/Thursday. Once we get past the 11 am park-hopping hurdle, we can hop back and forth as needed. The general idea is to do one park in the morning, the other park in the evening and whatever we want in the afternoon. We should be able to do lots in the morning without Lightning Lanes, so we can stack those reservations in the other park before we get there.
The River Belle Terrace dining package does not force you to sit on the fence and get wet. I chose to sit next to the fence and ended up getting wet. What the three dining packages give you is access to an area close to the fence; you can choose where you sit or stand in that section. Visit the Fantasmic link that Joanie posted for a map of the viewing locations.
Cafe Orleans is a cheaper table service alternative to Blue Bayou, mainly if you want to have the famous Monte Cristo as your meal. (It's a cheese sandwich with or without meat, battered and fried like French toast. Yum!) Bengal Barbecue is a quick service restaurant in Adventureland across from Indiana Jones featuring skewers with a variety of meats and/or vegetables.
We haven't considered most of the other food options in DCA. We can discuss that at the next meeting.
One question: Do we really need two high-end dining experiences?
