Mon 8/24/2009 11:17a | I have asked a small party if I can sit at the end of their table......I have never been turned down yet.
My kids (really) are well-behaved...and I would not ask just any other party.......(especially now, after reading the other thread about kids...lol)....but, so far...I have always gotten responded to with a "yes" |

If there is a free seat, one of us will grab the table and the other will get the food. Unless it's something small like a skewer or a pretzel or something small and we'll ask to share a bench with another couple of people. If it's restaurant though, and there are no seats visible before we get our food, usually we don't bother. |

Tue 8/25/2009 12:15p | We tend to eat off hours, it makes more sense to us. About an hour or 2 before the norm we try to shoot for. So when we're finishing up, the rest of the crowd is beginning to move in on our table. It's a win win situation for us, because after we eat with no crowds, we get to ride the attractions with no crowds too! |

When they zig you zag. |
