Anyone else disappointed by the switch to AK deluxe evening hours instead of MK? 😭 Only four open rides and 6-8 p.m. I realize it’s because of the new parade but I really hope the regular schedule returns. Evening hours are the biggest reason I choose a deluxe hotel, but I’m not interested if...

It did not fail but it was very close. It was eroding around the side of it but by the grace of God it held. Evacuation orders were not due to malicious or fake reporting. There were also evacuation orders on Saturday along the Catawba as water was directed to Lake Wylie. They had to open all...

Our local chief meteorologist used to live in New Orleans and helped with Katrina. He has likened the devastation to Katrina.

I live near Charlotte and this has been catastrophic for Western NC. 30 inches of rain in some areas. We don’t have information about the full extent of the damage because there is still no communication from the worst hit areas. They won’t know the death toll for some time. Entire mountain...

I went on it as a young child. I remember thinking we were really going far under the sea and that the submarine was actually dropping down. I remember feeling scared and nervous…and that my mom felt uneasy, which probably is why I did too. I learned as I grew up that she was claustrophobic. I’m...

Maybe it will look better in person, but I don’t like it at all. The moldy/ dirty look feels…moldy and dirty. I’m sure this is simply to cut back on having to clean the concrete. I’ve noticed in trip report pictures recently and during our trip a few months ago that the pavement at WDW has...

Yes. Those caves? They are like a controlled danger zone. Dark, uneven, winding paths, longer than you expect… your kids run ahead and you panic slightly until you hear their voices echoing again. They run around going through again before you’ve even made it out…thrilled with their...

Not to be a downer but we were there in May for an anniversary dinner and it was the worst filet I’ve ever had (low quality meat/tough.) Husband’s was the same. The wine and boar were good though.

A kid who doesn’t eat the main course at dinner. 🤣And none of us are even close to overweight. We are active, fit, and normally follow a paleo type diet at home, kids included. Bread and rolls are treats for vacation and holidays. *comment above is in response to your post that has been deleted.

It was in bad condition when we went two years ago. They haven’t replaced the terrible threadbare carpet? That is something that can be done during the night with a proper team of workers.

I’m sorry my question and decision to skip the meal have made you so upset. ❤️ I haven’t demanded anything. I simply asked if they were limiting bread and decided we don’t want to dine there since they do limit and my kids’ favorite part of the meal was the salad and bread. I do think it’s silly...

I would just rather not pay a premium for a family style meal where my kids might not be able to get more of something they want to eat. The meal isn’t so great that it’s a big loss for us to skip it. (And I’m not into planning life lessons for my kids on a vacation. No soup for you!! 😉)

Yes, I think you’re right…similar to Topolino’s no longer allowing an additional side item. (Which we’re choosing to skip this time as well.) We’re being a bit more selective with our meals during this early “Disney adult” phase where our kids aren’t eating like adults, but we’re paying those...

Yes, it does seem some restaurants have stopped serving bread. But this is a family style “all inclusive” non character meal for $38 a person. Usually these meals at Disney are AYCTE and you aren’t allowed to take any leftovers to go. While it’s not a bad value for an adult, it’s a pretty...

We haven’t tried it! Thanks for the recommendation! (I always wish we had more time in DS so we can eat more food there. 😂) Maybe we’ll do this on departure day instead of Polite Pig.
