Thanks for the insight about the crowd calendar. I couldn’t believe it changed so drastically! We’ll make the best of it…it’s just a bummer!

Sorry, I meant to post this on Trip Planning, and I can’t figure out how to move it! I’m a mess over here! 🤣🙄

Ok, please talk me down off the ledge! I used Touring Plans Crowd Calendar to determine the week in January 2022 we would go to Disney World. What was a week of 2’s, 3’s, and some 4’s has all of a sudden shot up to 10’s ALL WEEK. I don’t know what happened (Covid precautions being lifted?), but...

That's a great idea because I was already thinking we could get some good Christmas card shots! Thanks!

This is just my personal preference, but I like to drink the most authentic or traditional drink from each country. For example, margarita in Mexico, shot of Aqua Vitae in Norway, beer in Germany, etc. This maaaaaay lead to more of a hangover from all that mixing...but it's just more fun in my...

Hello all! We are heading to WDW in 8 days, and this will be our first trip with our son (2.5). I love the idea of taking a family pic at a recognizable/iconic/memorable location and recreating the picture every time we go back throughout the years. I'd like something more unique than the...

I like the idea of a caramel apple with "Will You Marry Me?" Spelled out on it...maybe with the ring on the stick? However you do it, it will be magical! Congratulations!

Do what feels best for your family and ignore all the judgy nay-sayers! I totally agree...16 months is that brilliant blend of budding independence and lack of real understanding (I have a very stubborn and independent 23 month old so I feel your pain!). If you think she'll be happier getting to...

Thanks everyone! So excited to go!

Hello! Heading to Disney World next January (22nd-29th). We really want to check out Trader Sam's for a drink and quick bite and were thinking of going on Monday night because MK closes at 6. We will have our 2 1/2 year old in tow, and while we lug him everywhere here in NYC (including...

I am loving this report! My little binky is almost one, too, and your trip is really resonating with me! My husband and I are also huge Disney fans, and while we weren't ambitious enough to tackle a trip for the first birthday, we are actively planning for next year! Colin is soooo sweet! I wish...

Sounds (and looks!) like you had an amazing time! What a fun trip to be able to share with your family and troop! Here's hoping (for you and us all) that you get back sooner rather than later!!!

We're planning on taking our son to WDW for his second birthday, hopefully staying at the Wilderness Lodge. My husband and I are huge fans of Disney dining, and really want to try Artist Point. My question is: would you take a 2 year old to a signature restaurant? Now, we're more than a year out...

Absolutely you should go! Enjoy yourself...it's your vacation, too!!! Sounds like a win/win situation...you get your coasters, and no one has to wait around for you. Perfect!

My husband and I have this same debate about our new baby...and we aren't even planning a trip in the near future! I agree with Dumbo (it's such a classic!). But if you and your wife have significant memories from POC that would be neat to share with your daughter! It would only add to the...
