If you have a January vacation this is pretty disheartening to have Everest and Splash down at the same time. We got lucky in 2020 with no Splash refurb so i guess it needs to happen.

2 adults - no kids, Previous visits - Sept 2012 (Swan), Jan 2019 (CBR), Jan 2020 (Gran Destino) . for the 2019 and 2020 trips we brought our nephew and his grandma, so decided to go solo this time. We normally go this time of year because it's cold in orlando and that's what we want. This year...

but... but how am i supposed to drag 7 kids, 2 dogs, 4 car seats, a stroller, 2 surfboards, 42 suitcases, a telescope, and a drum set to my hotel room???!?!

I have never, ever used DME and im totally cool with it.

it will be nice to have something to do in january when the parks close at 8 at the latest

Do y'all think splash will go down for refurb in January anyway? its been down the last 2 years i've gone . Hoping that with all the other rides that are down right now they won't close it, especially after the long refurb last year

Hoping they wait to take it down until they finish whatever they're doing with the riverboats. Preferably some time in february.... the last 2 years I've hone, splash has been down in January

took the bus to Magic Kingdom, then caught the Monorail to Epcot. WALKED ON TO EVERY RIDE. We did SSE, then living with the land, then ate at Seasons. My girlfriend had a seared tuna salad that I ended up having to return to a manager for a refund because the Tuna was just... not good. It...

Thanks Melissa, I think that the monorail ride to Epcot is a great way to "officially" start our Disney Vacation even though we got here last night. DHS has EMH tonight, so we are Epcot today and DHS tonight...

A little slow to get going this morning. We're gonna take the bus to the Magic Kingdom, and get on the monorail from there to go to Epcot. "Why aren't you taking the boat, jackass?" Because: we want to ride Spaceship Earth as our first ride in the parks and work our way to the back. We...

12:51 am update. Walked over from the Swan to the Dolphin. Only ran into one couple having beers by the Dolphin fountain. Otherwise, it's a ghost town at this time of night. Picabu is well stocked. Energy drinks!!

We're here the 23rd through 28th. The courtyards at the Swan are apparently all DSA's. Nice chairs and lounges surrounding the fountains. We took the bus to Downtown Disney. On the way, they made an unscheduled stop because one of the other passengers got sick. They let them off at the gate...

The flight wasn't bad, except that a passenger a few rows up from us threw up all over the plane when we landed. The MEARS Shuttle ride from MCO to the SWAN took about 30 minutes. We made stops at the Hyatt and Hilton before being dropped off at the Swan. The front desk staff so far has been...

Less than 48 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Arriving MCO @ 430 Sunday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not trying to stir the pot, but there is a thread at disboards saying epcot was crowded today , but that might be due to EMH. My trip is from Sunday to Friday so I'm not expecting anything "peak" ish..
