Re: I have only ......... days/months till I go again.
Got up bright and early to make ADRs this morning... Our top 3 choices were all unavailable. HUGE bummer. 1) Lunch at Chef Mickey's 2) Lunch at BOG 3) Dinner at Coral Reef Day 4 of our trip is our non-park day...so we were planning on doing lunch at Chef Mickey's. At freaking 6:01 AM...completely bo...

Re: 2017 Packages
I've stayed at OKW a few times and there are plenty of bus stops...so you shouldn't have to walk more than a few minutes to get to one closest to your room. I can tell you that if you are wanting a villa/studio closest to the first bus stop along the route in order to get the most empty bus, you'll ...

Re: Anybody have advice on WDW "reluctant partners"?
Like I said...a lot of it hinges on the relationship the parents have with the teachers as well. We're in a unique position that my wife was a teacher, so she could always supplement based on any lesson plans from the teacher. I will agree, though, that your chances of missing attractions due to ref...

Re: Anybody have advice on WDW "reluctant partners"?
Yeah...my wife taught before having kids and she's 100% for pulling kids out of school to go on vacation. Of course, you don't want to pull them out during critical times like exams or standardized test, but most teachers will work with parents when they pull their kids out for a week or so. It's be...

Re: Anybody have advice on WDW "reluctant partners"?
Yep...I did WDW on NYE way back when and it was the last time I will ever do WDW between Christmas and New Years. We had a blast and the weather was fantastic other than the rain on one of the days. But the crowds were beyond ridiculous and FastPass was still relatively new (2001), so the lines were...

Re: Summer 2016 Updates at WDW
I'm really looking forward to seeing what AK has to offer as a nighttime park. Since we won't be there until December, I'm hopeful that all the kinks will be ironed out by then. Since I've never been to AK after sunset, I don't know how they light it currently. I wonder if they could or have added a...

Re: You know you're a WDW nut when...
A Jungle Cruise box would be awesome. They could also do something fun with POTC...but the downside there would be the temptation to lean heavily on the movie instead of the attraction.

Re: You know you're a WDW nut when...
I wish I had known about those boxes back then...and had the money to spend on it. They look fantastic and I've been enjoying watching people unbox them on YouTube.

Re: Breakfeast Buffet at the Captains Grill
According to the most recent quarterly report, attendance at the domestic parks was down and lower than anticipated. However, revenues went up...because it's costing more and more to go to the parks and purchase things there. So that means Disney's strategy is working...having less people there but ...

Re: Teeny tiny chance of a DL getaway...oh, and Alaska too
Smart thinking ~ and your kids are going to be such a good age to go this time around. Are you doing anything to get them ready for the larger than life characters or do you not anticipate any problems with that? good question I'm not sure exactly how we will do this. We watch YouTube videos all th...

Re: I have only ......... days/months till I go again.
Yep...we got the studio this morning. So the whole trip is one booking now in a studio. I tried looking at Magic Band colors this morning and noticed that I couldn't get to the part of the website to do that. I then saw my room reservation wasn't there. So I tried adding the second one (12/6-12/10) ...

Re: Breakfeast Buffet at the Captains Grill
The real telling sign will be seeing what gets cut from Toy Story Land and Star Wars Land over the next year or two. Right now I think they are trying hard to make the cuts now in order to save things later...but you can pretty much guarantee that something will get cut from the WDW expansions.

Re: New Soarin' film leaked. Sort of.
Yep...we're going to WDW this December with two little ones and we know it will be very difficult to do Soarin' since the youngest one will be too small. After watching the short clip I saw...I know that this is definitely going to be a "Child Swap" ride and DW agreed after I told her abou...

Re: New Soarin' film leaked. Sort of.
So I just accidentally stumbled upon video of the new Soarin' there in Shanghai Disneyland. I didn't watch the beginning or the ending...but just maybe 45-60 seconds in the middle. I wanted to stop watching it...but I couldn't turn away. I won't post any spoilers...so don't worry about that. I will ...
