While I'm sure somewhat funny or odd to see there is a chance that the daughter has some kind of condition that causes her to lash out because she doesn't know how to handle the emotions. That would be my first guess anyways if the parents were so calm about it.

Both Port Orleans resorts were excluded from the public free dinning offer for this Fall. I was a little surprised by Riverside being excluded but FQ is small and seems to be very popular so I'm sure that is being looked at by Disney as a reason to not need to offer free dining there anymore...

Don't worry too much about lunch reservations vs dinner reservations. We usually do a mix of both and on the days that we have a lunch reservation we stay in the park a little longer before taking our break and then we leave a little earlier then usual for our dinner reservations or we have a...

We've taken my son at 1 & 1/2, 2 & 1/2, and leaving early tomorrow morning and he is 3 & 1/2. Everything mentioned above is great advise. We typically go for 10 days and I don't think he ever noticed the length of time. To him he was just with mom and dad all the time instead of spending some of...

Sorry you had a bad time. I'm curious about the FP+ issue though, do you have a smart phone or where you just using the kiosks? When I was there last December if we missed a FP+ time we could change it to something else that was available for a later time through the MDE app and did need to go...

I believe the Frozen sing a long is part of the regularFP+ system so no need to go and gather FP for that. Or did you purchase the Frozen premium package if that is still available? If you didn't then your old plan of everyone not needed at Jedi training sign ups going to TSMM should work fine.

The problem is that there is no way to tell if the battery has died. Sending out new ones each time means you have at least one band that has a working long range RFID.

With enough magic bands you have a reusable count down chain till your next trip

My wife and I ate a dinner and breakfast there on our honeymoon in 2010. Both meals were really good and the service was great. Neither time was real busy so it made for a quiter meal then all the others we had in the parks or at some of the other resorts.

This past December I was in WDW with my son and nephew who were both 2. They had a blast and really enjoyed Osborne lights and the MVMCP parade. If they've done well with night time stuff before I say go for it. You can always sleep in or have them take a late nap the day you go to MVMCP. We...

I was joking but I'm sure they could if I gave them my login info (not recommended btw)

Now I just need to find someone I know who will be down there for this and can pick me up a Darth Vader magic band.

Unless it has changed sense I was there in December the viewing is right in the center hub facing the castle. There is room for quite a few people but there were not many people there. We had a front row seat facing the castle and barely anyone around us. That being said I'm sure it depends on...

I think I have you all beat. I work IT... Just imagine my reaction when I saw a Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom screen reboot and saw they were running it on a windows system :banghead: Plus I can't escape it at home because of websites and apps. I do try to limit the amount of ranting around my...

When you park hop do you know what park you are planning on going to after your mid-day break? If so the FP+ Has some upsides over paper FP. What we did was setup our FP+ for whichever park we were planning on being in for the afternoon/evening. Sometimes that was the same as the morning and...
