    Please tell me Crowd Tracker is sometimes wrong!

    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!

    Please tell me Crowd Tracker is sometimes wrong!

    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! 🤣🙄

    Please tell me Crowd Tracker is sometimes wrong!

    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...

    Perfect place for recurring picture?

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

    Drinking around the world advice?

    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...

    Perfect place for recurring picture?

    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...

    Proposal Ideas

    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!

    Toddlers

    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...

    Trader Sam's Still Busy?

    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...

    Trip Report Our Dumbo Flew, Mickey Sang, 1st birthday Trip Report

    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!!!

    Signature Restaurants

    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...

    Disney by your onesies?

    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!

    First ride!

    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...

    Length of Trip with Toddler?

    Hubby and I are also HUGE Disney World fans (we even had our magical honeymoon there!) and are brand new parents. But we disagree about when to take our little prince to "the world"...me wanting to go sooner rather than later. DH doesn't want him to go until he can remember the trip (aka...

    Trip Report There's Something About Mary...and it's called DRAMA!

    I love all your trip reports (long time stalker of this site...very rare actual poster!). My husband and I loooove Disney World (have gone on multiple trips to "the World"...even our honeymoon), and we can't wait to share it with our future children! What's so amazing about your trip reports is...

    Deluxe Dining Tips/suggestions

    My husband and I used the Deluxe Plan on our honeymoon two months ago and had some mixed feelings. I got it because I wanted to try as many signature restaurants as possible...and also because I wanted to spoil us a little! While we ate like kings every day and had some of the best meals I've...

    18% auto tip with 5 people plus infant

    I work at a restaurant in Times Square, and always joke that if there is a table of 5 with a pregnant woman...I'm adding the gratuity! You have no idea how many times a week I get stiffed...I take no chances! I'm sure the servers at WDW feel the same way.
