The finale being updated at Big Thunder would be nice but it would be amazing if they could somehow cool down the upstairs portion of the queue. The last few times I've been in there, it has felt like an absolute oven. Since we are local, we usually go for rope drop and leave before the heat of...

The biggest complaint I see people have with Disney at the moment is that the parks are always crowded now. Disney has successfully spread crowds throughout the year instead of having weeks or months with low attendance. They started by raising prices consistently, on hotels, tickets, parking...

But that's what Disney has done, they've taken the smoking areas and put them off the beaten path, outside the parks. Would it be that drastic of a difference if Disney had kept a single smoking area inside the parks but put it just inside the entrance? Or if they kept one but it way in a remote...

So any idea what time the parade with Edelman will be tomorrow?

I drove to Animal Kingdom Lodge as well on Tuesday, it was in the evening. I told them at the gate that we came to eat at the Mara, the guard asked if I knew where I was going, I said yes, and he let me in. We ate dinner, the Mara was basically empty.

Yeah, because Tomorrowland Terrace and Tortuga Tavern are open daily.

Flight of Passage has never had a single rider line they've actually used. They had a sign up prior to opening (saw it on the first day of Annual Passholder Previews) but it was removed. Instead, once you get past the FP+ split, they may ask for single riders and put them in their own queue to...

I've been to AKL a few times over the past couple of weeks during the day. Each time I've visited, they've been doing extensive work with jackhammers, apparently digging up the entire bottom of the pool from back to front. They started at the area of the pool closest to the little playground...

Crowds have been low the beginning of this month, there's no question about it. But they're taking a few slow weeks to justify cutting shows, performance acts, and overall CM hours for October based on that? I have a hard time believing that autumn is going to be a slow time for the parks.

I'm shocked to see so many people saying Raglan Road over House of Blues. Our last two trips to Raglan Road the entertainment has been fine but the food has been a huge disappointment. I'm not sure what they did but the quality isn't there. So House of Blues hands down.

We went to the parks 3 times this past week, DHS on Wednesday (also had Passholder PlayTime at TSL), MK on Friday, and AK on Sunday. We also visited AKL to eat at the Mara after our trip to AK. The parks were as quiet as I've seen them in a long time. We did our TSL "preview" which was...

The closest we came to trying Maria and Enzos was Pizza Ponte last year during Free Pizza Day. Went in, ordered two drinks (which was required to get the slices), and got two slices of pizza that were not worth the amount we paid for the drinks. Ended up over at Cookes of Dublin to get something...

I remember back in 2000 working IT and having to set up one of these indoor smoking rooms in a building with network connections because smoking wasn't illegal inside office buildings at that point. The idea was it would allow people to get up from their desk, walk into this sort of conference...

It's only a matter of time before Disney cuts the smoking areas from the park. Public pressure through complaints along with the need for the use of those physical spaces make it not a matter of if, but when. I'm guessing additional stroller parking areas will be needed for the additional crowds...

"Surfaces may be hot" You don't say.

If you guess right, the site will show up censored in the comments lol.

AKL has had lids at the Mara until this week.

The issue with the cups that Disney uses is that the lids are the thing that stabilizes them. You put liquid into the cup near the top and it's almost a guarantee it's going to spill because the cup is so flimsy and can be easily pushed inward. When you're trying to bring food on a tray to a...

That's an older layout of the counter, but yes, lids were in a container like that. Half for cold cups (soda/water), half for hot cups (coffee/tea/hot chocolate).

I live nearby, I like the resort, I eat there frequently. The Mara is my favorite QS at Disney. They've always had lids until sometime this past week. All I did was ask a CM if they could put some more lids out as there were none in the normal spot. He seemed annoyed that I had even asked about...
