    News Cast chaos at closing in Emporium tonight (9/8).

    Went to the party Friday night and we were surprised that the entire confectionery side of Main Street was closed when were leaving (before 10pm). I don’t ever remember seeing that before. It was really strange, and not a little disappointing since it was our last night and we were planning n...

    News Disney Vacation Club Announces Expansion at The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa

    Agreed. They barely cooled the sodas I had in there overnight. Definitely not cool enough for anything perishable.

    News Disney Vacation Club Announces Expansion at The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa

    FWIW, stayed in one of the updated studios last night. They are very nice. Saw pallets of microwaves being delivered to the building this morning, so they should all be in shortly.

    Disney Skyliner shutdown and evacuation - October 6 2019

    Yep, was thinking the same thing this morning. We were watching Monday night as that scenario appeared to be playing out. Line had been stopped for 30-45 minutes when they closed the Epcot station and emptied us out of the queue. Rain ended up being minimal, but the clouds rolling in looked...

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner

    Last night, saw a cm at CBr cleaning the glass as the cabins rolled through. Just a quick hit with a swifter like attachment on a pole, but was wondering if that was to address this.

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner

    Just got kicked out of line at Epcot. They have been stopped for at least 20 minutes and are indefinitely shutting down. I’m sure that’s not a lot of comfort to all the people sitting up there as the storm clouds roll in. 🤨

    Pirates of the Caribbean closed in June for refurb

    Two questions: 1. Does anyone know if this sort of short refurb is usually finished on time? 2. When they say 5th-18th does that mean it's scheduled to reopen on the 18th or 19th? My boys will be disappointed if we miss it this time around, and I may shift our vacation a couple of days so that...

    Does the "magic" still exist at WDW?

    Wanted to take the chance to thank everyone for their replies... :) You've definitely inspired me to believe that my kids will love it. Now, whether or not I can wait until September remains to be seen... ;) Thanks again, Mike

    Does the "magic" still exist at WDW?

    Hope this doesn't come across like a troll or anything, but am generally curious if you folks still feel the magic at WDW. I haven't been since my honeymoon 10 years ago :(. While I felt it at that time (as well as all of my previous visits), my bride mot certainly did not, which was most...

    New Video and Photo Update March 16th! - Must see!

    Can't tell you how awesome that video was! I haven't been in 10 yrs, and have been having doubts lately because of all of the negative vibes I've been reading. It brought tears to my eyes and gave me huge goosebumps, especially when you turned the corner to see the castle. My 5 yo dd...
