    First Time Cruise - April or August?

    Just chiming in. Was at CC last month Feb2014. Temp outside was 80's. Don't remember the water temp. Wanna say low to mid 70's. At first it was a little cold. Within minutes we were use to it and snorkeled for an hour or so. Loved every minute of it. Even a guy who was deathly scared of sharks...

    Trip Report Magic Bands, FP+ and a Baby? A January 2014 TR.

    Gotchya. thank you. So basically both parties end up having to wait in the FP line one after the other. Was kind of hoping we all wait once together and then just hand the kid off after the ride when one parent hops off the next hops on. But with the queue set up on several attractions this...

    Trip Report Magic Bands, FP+ and a Baby? A January 2014 TR.

    Awesome TR so far. keep it up. Quick question.. Did you guys use the child swap? if so how did it work and go? We are traveling in two weeks for the first time with our DS who is 7 mos and we love rides and didnt know how the childswap realistically works. Is there much time between the hand...

    Disney Dream Cruise Wedding Booked

    @Mmcginnis1127 the packages aren't to expensive IMO for what you get. I think it will end up being around $8,000 or so for 32 people. The base packages start at $4k for onship wedding or $5k for on the beach wedding. Then you get 10 people for that. Then it is an additional $20 per person for...

    ok ok I wouldnt call it "absurd", I am just overly optimistic I guess. :)

    The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train completed its first drop test today

    I have a feeling this is going to open much sooner than most anticipate. If the outside is nearly done, the inside sets are probably nearly done, they are testing the ride vehicle now. its usually two months of that if no glitches or issues i could see soft opening in Jan and actual opening in...

    What's the biggest bang for you fastpass+?

    I've tried to think of what is the quickest way to transition offsite guests and i think for the interm it would be to still allow them to show up to the gate with their paper tickets or plastic cards and when they enter the gate a CM will hand them a grey magic band coded for offsite guest...

    What's the biggest bang for you fastpass+?

    i believe they plan on having this all rolled out by the end of the year. I saw the list of hotels posted somewhere and it appears by the end of October they had them all listed as being actively tested. So i had me to thinking that by the first part of the year like jan-feb they would have FP+...

    Tomorrowland Speedway

    If I remember correctly there is a bar underneath that keeps the track wrapped around it. So although it allows you to go from side to side and bounce into the sides I don't believe it would ever allow you to lift off the track. I could be wrong though. Just going off memory and I was trying to...

    New Dragon Animatronic

    @Disneyhead'71 I don't believe I have ever seen a dragon at Uni. I know they had the ride dueling dragons but sadly it is was never really themed well IMO. The only dragon to speak of there would be in the Shrek 4D attraction, but that is all screen technology. Disney has had an actual dragon...

    New Dragon Animatronic

    found a little more info on it and the company and a little longer English version of the video. Take a key note they have a site in California.. What are the odds of them teaming up with WDI. or WDI taking a stab at this on their own?!?! Zollner Elektronik AG developed and constructed the...
