    Do Kids Have the Option Not to Eat at Ohana?

    Our last trip to Ohana our then 5yr old daughter didn't want to eat any of the normal offerings and wasn't into the kid options either (mac & cheese, nuggets, etc...). She just wanted to eat the bread and butter. We were ok with that and were expecting to pay the kids price for her still...

    No! I Don't Want to be on YouTube!

    Can't be any worse than the millions of people taking photos/home videos in the park with you in the background somewhere. You're probably in a lot of people's photos and home videos and don't even know it. I marched in the Main Street parade 4 times during my High School band time. I often...

    Disney Skyliner shutdown and evacuation - October 6 2019

    Pictures of them in storage have them bumped up right on each other. In the stations when running looks like about 1-2 feet of separation.

    New photopass website with some changes, improvements, and one big loss

    I finally dumped in the photos in Lightroom and alleluia, the photos contain the original EXIF data so Lightroom is at least able to sort them in chronological order by the capture date/timestamp. Another odd thing is I had 329 photos checked but ended up with over 600 photos. Looks like it...

    New photopass website with some changes, improvements, and one big loss

    Just got back from our trip and I'm really missing the old download functions. In 2017, I was able to download these nicely organized zip files of all our photopass photos, named by location and in chronological order: The other night I downloaded last weeks photos from the site. After...

    What's your experience renting DVC points?

    I wouldn't write off a 1BR as not being a cost saver (at least for now). We rented points direct from a DVC member for 6 nights in March 2019 and we're coming out at 50% off Disney's rate. Renting points has always been a cost saver for us. One year we booked a Kidani Studio for the same price...

    What items have you lost at WDW and never recovered?

    Something Lost: During one of my high school band trips in '96 or '98 my wallet fell out my back pocket, I presume on the monorail between Epcot and Magic Kingdom. About 2 weeks after I got home, the wallet showed up in the mail, missing the cash, travelers checks and a cross necklace I put in...

    Your favorite portable cellphone battery?

    I have a Anker PowerCore 13000 for about $35 at Amazon. It'll run my GoPro for about 10 hours and use just half a charge. Depending on your phone it can possibly fully charge them several times as well. I love it and don't travel without it...

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    What's interesting is the lack of big seat restraints. Maybe just a seatbelt looks like. For some reason I was thinking something similar to Mission Space intensity but this looks like maybe it won't have motion much more than what Star Tours has.

    News PhotoPass at some character locations being replaced by automated cameras

    Kinda disappointing to hear. Some of the best meet & greet photos we have of aren't the staged group shots but those candid, closeup, interacting shots the photopass photographer would get of my kids, and even the parents. Stuff like the hugs, the laughing faces as Mickey talked to them, Belle...

    How early do you put up your Christmas decorations? And when do you take them down?

    Our tree and a string of lights on the house goes up on the weekend after Thanksgiving and comes down on a weekend around King’s Day (Feast of the Epiphany), which kicks off the Mardi Gras season here.
