    Chef Mickeys or Tusker House?

    I've done both for breakfast, we are doing Chef Mickeys later one of the days in our upcoming trip. Foodwise, don't really consider much. From what I can tell, breakfast is pretty similar and cut and dry across the board at each location. There may be a couple different options but it's mostly...

    Rode the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train for the first time. Ride...eh. Technology...pretty cool.

    Went in October and got a Fast Pass for the ride (wait times literally were an upwards of 100-120 minutes an hour after park opening). After only waiting ten minutes, I still don't feel the actual ride itself was that great. Being inside the mine was nostalgic and fun but the ride is no...

    "We're going to get a Test Track for Soarin'"

    My girlfriend and I usually shorten names of rides (IE: Pirates, Thunder, The Land) only because we understand each other when we say it. I hear a lot of people using Flash Pass, which I think is universal to skip lines in Six Flags locations.

    http://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/first-time-for-halloween.887377/#post-6233590 Haha I just asked recently. But some things I'd be looking forward to is the Boo to You parade (if that is what it is called). A lot of meet and greets with villa ins during the party you may not normally get to...

    Alright, help me get "undepressed" about not being financially ready for Disney

    Well aim for the best possible value; if you're going exclusively for parks, value resorts can be your friend. Cheaper nights and you still get the same transportation as if you were staying on higher end property. Go during the slower seasons when the parks are less busy; tends to also be...

    Annual Passholder question(s)

    Yeah I live 1,300 miles away; driving distance. Soooo. I'd rather fly, and we only need one bed so. I see where you're coming from, definitely a better plan if you're in a large party.

    The cost of filming Soarin'

    It's not, just can't use it with the intention of selling or making profit on it, which literally is what Soarin' would do. But I bet Disney could get around that or get some form of permit if they tried. Getting the guests on board to change the footage is the real challenge

    Upgrade from moderate to deluxe?

    Contemporary is about as close to MK as you can get without sleeping inside the park. But you'll be paying more, guaranteed. I don't know what CBR is nightly, never stayed there, but I can tell you I've spent an upwards of generally $400 a night for Bay Lake view rooms at contemporary. That's...

    Annual Passholder question(s)

    Good deal, especially if you bring the family; though I'd bring friends and split the cost since I'm 23 with a girlfriend and no other obligatory family. :P But unless we stayed at a nice resort (which I'd be paying for sure, $300+ a night), it'd be almost cheaper to stay on property. At almost...

    Annual Pass - Magicband

    Huh, I didn't see any notes about that; though I wasn't really looking since I don't need to :P My guess is you would do the same, get it at the hotel. Hop in the disney site and hit the chat button and ask a rep. They can give you a direct answer to that.

    Pre-Trip The 5 Years is a Really Long Time Pre-trip Report!

    A friend of mine went in Early August and battled some horrendous crowds. My guess is, late August/Early September would be good to go; back to school so crowds must be limited and you won't be waiting. The heats what will get ya. :facepalm:

    Be Our Guest Restaurant FastPass+

    Literally luck. Check constantly. I just got a Dinner Reservation got 6pm on Saturday during Columbus Day Weekend. Checked several times a day for a month. I'm pretty certain I still check it in my sleep..

    Annual Pass - Magicband

    https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/faq/passholders/magic-band-customization/ There you go :P I don't believe they allow you to "pick up" the magic band at the park, so you do the order and customization online and you receive it in the mail in 7-10 business days (not 100% on the length but...
