I don't know if this is the right place to post, but it seemed like the best place to start. My parents are currently staying at the Contemporary on the 11th floor. They said a fire alarm went off around 6:00am today, but my dad said that the alarm sound and warning messages were only going off...

Does anyone know if these are complete? I saw a Mom’s Panel reply dated April 2023 stating that all of the rooms have been refreshed (to the new norm for the values) but the Disney website still shows pictures of the old decor. It’s just concerning that one source seems to contradict the other...

INTRO During the trip, I debated with myself about doing a report. Most softball trips don’t afford a lot of time for actual vacation activities, but these big summer ones tend to have more time for “STUFF.” They usually are played over the course of a week, there’s typically a lot of downtime...

There was a point where I debated about doing some of this live, but we’ve been so busy. Oh well. In any event, this is a two part report. The first part takes us west to Colorado, for a softball trip to the Colorado Sparkler. The second half is a trip east to Florida for a 7 night cruise on...

I don't know how much of this will be a TR vs. a sharing of pictures. I'm tired, school is starting on Tuesday, work is about to get crazy, and our softball world was literally just turned upside down...but I think a full-blown TR might actually help with my sanity. So, I might as well get it...

You don't have to look far in this section to see that it wasn't that long ago that I was shopping for a new vehicle. Unfortunately, I'm now trying to get it repurchased by VW under lemon law provisions. The Atlas I bought last year is on its 4th time in the shop at the dealer for the a/c going...

We began our adventures early on the morning of February 5th. Just before 7am CT, we had my vehicle loaded up and ready to go. I’m not sure how we did it, but we managed some room for the dog so we could drop her off for boarding (aka Camp!) on our way out of town. I guess I shouldn't have been...

It's always kind of bugged me that we've never checked this off of our list of iconic Disney things to try. I have an ADR at B&C on our arrival day, but we're all still feeling a bit mixed on going through with this. It's not the amount of food. I mean, I know we won't finish it nor are we going...

Not going to dredge up the old cake thread, but for those of you traveling in the near future who would like a custom cake from a Disney bakery...I have info that can help. The Grand Floridian Bakery is making cakes and they are delivering to other places. I just ordered cakes from the GF that...

As some of you may recall, we were supposed to return to WDW in July of 2020. It would have been the first time the whole family has set foot on property since December 2017 and it was going to be a surprise for our girls. Check in day was supposed to be July 11th, the same day the parks started...

I ordered Magic Bands a couple of days ago for our upcoming trip. I decided to get themed ones (vs solid colors). The specific MB descriptions/names are showing in the email confirmation I received and while the charges are still pending, the pending amount on my bank account equals the cost of...

We're currently booked in a deluxe studio at the Poly in Feb 2020. I presented the family with a lot of options before deciding on that resort and room. We just got back from a non-Disney road trip and my husband's snoring is causing me to rethink these plans. In the past, I was the only one...

I know a number of people just aren't comfortable with any kind of travel right now, and that's perfectly fine. I know a lot of people would have also scrapped all hopes of traveling when your plans keep getting canceled or changed. Ultimately, we were in dire need of a getaway and as the...

Anyone think I'm crazy for thinking about waiting? We have room-only lodging booked for mid July, and before all of this craziness, I planned to buy park tickets shortly before my 60 day mark so that I could book FPs. That 60 day mark is rapidly approaching and I think I'm going to hold off on...

I know guests under 14 need to be accompanied by someone 14 or older to enter a park and I believe it's 7 or older to ride unaccompanied once inside of a park. My questions is how many of you have done this with your kids? My older one is about to turn 14 and the younger one is 11, so it's a...

I know we don't know for certain when everything is going to reopen and even once it does, I know there will be a lot of economic uncertainty in the mix that could also alter our plans. Still, regardless of when your next trip is, for whatever reason...what is the first Disney meal that you've...

I was hoping I'd like the new Ford Bronco or Bronco sport, but 1. Assuming the leaked pictures are real, I don't like any of them. The 4-door looks too Jeepish, the 2 door looks too much like a pumped up Bronco II, and the Sport looks like a modern version of the original Escape body. 2. I am at...

CAUTION- There are a lot of words 🤣 If you followed my recent runDisney trip, I ended it by thinking I might have three WDW trips on my calendar. Well, the February 2021 trip my husband mentioned is going to probably be replaced with a city trip...DC, NYC, or Boston. I'm not opposed to this...

It's already one of my favorite resorts to visit, but we're finally going to stay there for a few nights this summer. I'm going with a standard view because I really don't need to look out at the boardwalk itself and I only book garden view when I can't get a discounted standard. That being...

I honestly don't even know how detailed I'm going to make this. It wasn't like one of our big national park trips, nor was it like a trip to Disney. Still, I took some pics and stuff happened, so why not share? If you followed my recent rD TR, you know I always follow the weather. If you...
