    FOP Safety Announcer

    Just got back from a great trip to the world and while riding both FOP and Dinosaur it occurred to me that the safety announcer in the second pre-show room, the one in the middle of Dr Ogden's video, who tells you how the Avatar program works by linking a "driver" to an "avatar" sounds an awful...

    "Do not disturb" signs being removed from resort rooms

    Actually if you read the latest issue of the DVC Magazine it states that all DVC members staying on points will now receive daily trash service in 2018. You didn't think they were actually giving you something for nothing did you?

    Great Movie Ride and TCM

    I like the new partnership but I do not like Robert Osborne narrating, he has no feeling, his lines feel very matter of fact , I feel it takes away from the attraction.

    Sum of All Thrills Closing?

    Hey folks, I was looking at the website you go to after riding Sum of All Thrills that you use your card at http://games.mathmovesu.com/soat.html and noticed something interesting, look at the screen shot, it says the website can be used "until June 30, 2016" is this indirectly telling us...

    Thank you Minnie

    Awww what a great story and awesome how Minnie was able to go above and beyond and make your daughters day special. If you'd like to do something special for Minnie you can actually go to Guest Relations and ask to write a commendation for them. We've done it several times, just write that it...

    Top of The World Lounge at Bay Lake Tower

    Having finally had a piece during our stay in January, I can tell you the cake is TOTALLY WORTH IT! Funny story though, we were staying on the 15th floor which is where the Top of the World Lounge is. Normally you need a special key card for the elevator to get up there. Everything said you...

    Does anyone even eat at...

    While we do eat at the Commissary from time to time, in 10 yrs of going to WDW we have never eaten at the Liberty Inn. There's so many great food options at Epcot I can't imagine going there to get food you could get at any American restaurant off property.

    Reflections of Earth improvements including new lasers

    Does anyone else wish they'd bring back the 3 colored bursts instead of the white ones they replaced them with in middle of Life, Adventure? I took this photo back in 2010 and sadly have never been able to recreate it with a newer camera. @marni1971 was that an environmental change as well?

    Horse(s) used for Headless Horseman

    I know a few years ago we met the horse at Tri-Circle D but his name was Jack. Is Jack no longer being used? Perhaps that might explain why the Headless Horseman used to gallop down the route and now he sort of trots?

    Bags and Rides

    I always go to Disney with a large LowePro DSLR camera backpack and never have a problem taking it on any ride. You can always stick it down between your legs or at worst keep it on your lap like on Space Mountain. I also like to bring a tripod for night time. I leave the tripod in a locker in...

    Turtle Talk Stumping Crush

    I saw Crush at DCA once. It was a small group, me, my wife, a couple of older teens probably 18-20 yrs, and maybe 2 families. One of the older teens asked Crush "do you identify with any religion?" Well Crush didn't miss a beat he proudly exclaimed "I'm a dudist…we worship the land, and sea...

    January 21st to 27th - Crowd Levels or Special Activities??

    My family and I will be down at that same time, so you know there'll be at least 3 more people there with you :) Seriously though, we always go this same week every year, and although the MLK holiday can be a little crowded for the most part the crowd levels aren't bad at all.

    New Disney Website Problem

    I had a bit of a panic moment with the new website. I manually began inputting all my reservations for my upcoming trip, and it accepted 6 of my 7 dining reservations, but I could not get it to take my reservations for BOG, which really freaked me out. Kept saying that my phone number was...

    La hacienda and Illuminations adr help requested

    7:45 definitely, I'd even try for later if possible. I usually do a reservation for around 8:15 when I want to watch Illuminations at Hacienda, they won't kick you out at the end so you can finish your dinner or dessert even if it's past 9.

    Have you been down with a Herniated Disc

    My first trip ever to WDW I injured myself about a month before and herniated a disc. The pain was bad, but I wasn't going to let it stop me enjoy my first trip to WDW. I used a ton of those Thermacare Heatwraps. The heat really seemed to help ease the pain, plus a lot of Advil. The one thing...
