    What to do for a Bachelor Party!?

    Monorail Bar hop as has been mentioned and Disney Springs are awesome right now for drinking and seeing the hotels and experiencing all different types of bars. Actually, I've seen some small parties like that at Trader Sam's. I'd also maybe see what concerts are at House of Blues. I'm a late...

    If you are there in January, Sunday nights it's empty because the NFL playoff games are usually on at Tambu

    Anyone been to Aulani?

    We went for our 1 year anniversary and were supposed to go for our 5 this year before my wife passed (don't want to be depressing, but can lead to awkward conversation if I don't mention it and someone doesn't know) last year. I'm going to take my parents in February though, gonna be tough but...

    **New Title** Best Resort for One Day Only? No parks.

    Even though I hate staying at the resort because I feel it's too far from MK and Epcot for me, if I was just going to have a resort day I'd have to stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge. Beautiful pools, All the different animal stuff to see, Great bar area, good restaurant choices, it's not too close...

    I didn't choose, I knew nothing about the place at the time, just where I ended up.

    Jungle Navigation Skippers Canteen Restaurant ADR

    I love the food and have a lunch ADR there in September. I loved when it was walk up only. The S.E.A Shui Mai is terrific! Mac and Cheese is very good, I also had the grilled steak which was terrific. Deserts I had the Kungaloosh! and the Bahn Ban Long Cake which were both great, I preferred...

    DVC right for me and my family?

    @LuvtheGoof Is there a way to not get the same use year now? I'm assuming there used to be, but since I got my initial 160, I've added on twice 142 at Grand Flo and 100 at Aulani and due to specials or deals they always seem to have nothing has changed use year wise (always August). Is this...

    Grand Floridian Tips/Secrets/Advice

    It looks like everyone has given you some great tips already, so I'll just say I never stayed at the Grand Floridian until a couple years ago. When my late wife and I got married and bought into DVC at the Animal Kingdom and when we realized how far away AKL was, we bought at Grand Floridian and...

    Trader Sams Grog Grotto crowds

    The times I have been there(8 times between October and January), if there was a wait it was usually about an hour at the most. If there is an open spot they fill it in my experience, unlike the previous poster, the only night I saw it not packed was the night of the NFC/AFC championship games...

    Universal Question

    They have an express pas which varies in price during the year. I've seen it range anywhere from $35-$135 dollars for two parks. Since I do quick trips there, I'll get it when I'm there on busier days to make sure I get on all my favorites.

    Universal Question

    It definitely depends when you go and what you want to do. If you go most days during the fall, winter, or early spring you can do everything in a few hours. I was there a day in January where I was the only non employee I saw for the first half hour to an hour in IoA, it was raining so it...

    Trip Report October 1-11 My first trip without my loved one

    So I asked for advice way back when on people who spent time in Disney World after a loss. I thought it only fair that I let you guys know how my trip went. For those who didn't read my post and may read this, this trip was the last thing my wife and I had planned prior to her passing. No...

    Going to Disney while mourning a loved one

    @Goofyernmost Thanks for telling me about your experience. Loss is loss, in my opinion, regardless of how it happens ultimately, so I appreciate you sharing your story. Brandie's favorite attraction in MK has always been the Carousel of Progress, it was always something I avoided prior to...

    Going to Disney while mourning a loved one

    @KIsAPrincess I'm going October 1-11, so I think that's too early for the marathon. Last year we went for the marathon, I have a friend who runs in it, and I ended up getting sick for the party and had to miss it. Brandie, my wife, took care of me through a very miserable drive home. Sorry...
