    Top 5 Restaurants at WDW

    I've never been to the Garden Grill, although I know where it is, in the Land Pavilion. I've seen it, walked by it, and enjoyed looking at all the people meeting with the characters during their meal. The problem is, this restaurant is always full, and always hard to get a reservation at any...

    Ever lost or found anything valuable?

    I'm really delighted to hear that a lot of you have had things returned to you in the most unusual ways! This is really inspiring! I kind of wonder what the cast members who work at the Lost and Found department do with stuff that's never recovered?

    Ever lost or found anything valuable?

    I'm starting this thread because even today, several years after the event, I still feel guilty about it. I was waiting at the bus stop to go from Magic Kingdom to the Pop Century, and when the bus came, the doors opened and I discovered I was the only one on the bus. I took my seat and...

    Me too, but if you like mashed potatoes and gravy, you should be fine. LOL!

    I found the menu online (hoping the mods will allow me to post the link): https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/en_CA/dining/magic-kingdom/jungle-navigation-skipper-canteen/menus/ I can't recommend anything I haven't tried. The menu looks a little different from the time I went. I think my meal...

    Greetings from near Vancouver, Canada!

    Thanks for your reply, and the nice welcome. My mom was a pretty resilient person. She knew what was best, and what was right, and didn't take guff from anyone. She passed in 1996 but there's hardly a day that goes by where we don't think of her. I hear ya about unexpected expenses. I'm...

    Unnecessary harsh treatment of children in public spaces at WDW

    No, I ask that you please don't post anything hateful, and that you think about what you're going to say before you post it. I'm asking people to reply in a way that will help me understand why parents do this, NOT because I'm looking for a huge debate. Come to think of it, more replies to my...

    Unnecessary harsh treatment of children in public spaces at WDW

    "Um, no", he said in a quiet, mousy voice. Having said that, if I had a kid I would certainly teach him the difference between right and wrong and what is acceptable behaviour in public. My mom always taught us that we could not throw temper tantrums in public, nor did she ever hit us where...

    Who has NEVER been to a rope-drop?

    I just can't see myself waiting 8+ hours to stand in line for a ride. At any park.

    Unnecessary harsh treatment of children in public spaces at WDW

    More often than not, when visiting the parks I see a parent (or both parents) scolding their young children (including spanking, shaking, yelling, or some other unruly behaviour) while the kid is screaming at the top of his or her lungs. This type of behaviour is totally unnecessary at the...

    Ever had an accident at WDW?

    Just reading over all these responses reminded me of another time I had an "accident" at WDW. I was walking around in one of the shops on Main Street, and was admiring something in a display case when all of a sudden, this lady ran into the back of my ankles with her electric wheelchair. She...

    Who has NEVER been to a rope-drop?

    I think the most time I've ever spent waiting in a ride queue is about 45 minutes. That's my limit. If it looks longer than that, I'll skip it and come back later in the day when it's not so backed up. And I think it was the queue for one of the Fantasyland rides (Snow White, Peter Pan or...

    Top 5 Restaurants at WDW

    For me, I would have to say (not in order), and the reasons why: 1) Whispering Canyon Cafe at AKL, because I love the way that the food comes to you and the "entertainment" provided while you're waiting for your meal, especially breakfast. One time I was there and ordered something that came...

    Top 5 Restaurants at WDW

    Oh yes, I loved this place in Adventureland in the Magic Kingdom! I ordered a dish that contained cilantro and the server came by my table and asked me what I was doing, and I said, "picking off the cilantro" (I can't stand the stuff), and although she offered to take it back and replace my...

    Favourite restaurants at WDW

    Let me just say this first before I get into telling you what my favourite restaurants are at Walt Disney World. I have been to many, many restaurants at WDW, and I love a good many of them. Each has its own unique charm and theme, and each provides its guests (us) with unforgettable...

    Give Me Your Best Disney Memes

    Me, when people confuse Disneyland with Walt Disney World... Honest, I get so frustrated when people ask, "Is that the one in California or Florida?"

    Greetings from near Vancouver, Canada!

    Hi gang, I'm not new here, I joined on July 5, 2007 but don't think I ever properly introduced myself. After 13 years I think it's about time! My name is Dan, and I'm from Port Coquitlam, British Columbia, and am a huge Disney fan. For those of you who don't know, Port Coquitlam is just...
