    Suggestions for unique snack/dessert

    As our kids age, our WDW trips increasingly revolve around food/drink. One of the new favorite activities is finding new snacks or desserts that we haven’t tried before. For this past trip, the Peter Pan float at Storybook Treats was a hit with the kids. My wife and I fell in love with the GF...

    New V.I. Passholder Events Include Some Free After Hours Access

    If anything like DVC moonlight magic at EPCOT last week, it will still be quite busy around the parks after hours, even if they cap admission. We found the regular EMH at EPCOT the following night to be much quieter and more pleasant. Just an observation, not a criticism - it’s GREAT to see...

    Resort pools and lightning

    OK fine - you've all convinced me there's no issue here. Still think a couple of bad calls this week, but better safe than sorry for sure. If being honest with myself, I think I'm more upset that the bar closed along with the pool every time.

    Resort pools and lightning

    I don't disagree with any of the responses. Florida storms are dangerous. Safety should always come first and I've never once had a problem with Disney's policy over the 35 years I've been visiting. And having my next door neighbor's house struck and severely damaged by lightning, I'm...

    Resort pools and lightning

    So, just finishing up a week at GF villas. First stay here. May be our favorite DVC property in many regards. But one BIG negative... the weather related pool closures were absolutely ridiculous. Two CM told me they close if lightning within 2 miles. Sounds reasonable to me if that's true...

    WDW Taking a Hit Over Gator and Massacre ...

    You are not factoring inflation. Those rooms are worth at least $49.25

    Multiple bands/multiple resorts

    Apologies - this has probably been addressed multiple times, but I can't find a clear answer. We are staying in 2 different on-property resorts for our upcoming trip so we have just been sent 2 sets of Magic bands - one for each resort stay. I should be able to use one band for the entire...

    Epcot Canceling Segway Tours?

    Because it is fun (for some at least). I don't see the practical value in segways, but they are cool to try out at least once. We had an awesome time on our WS tour. Too bad if they can't keep that one going

    Dvc discount at counter service restaurants?

    No I was in DL a few months ago. No discounts there at counter service. Again, it's really not a big deal. Thanks for the replies. Maybe I just got lucky. I suppose I'll show my card and see what happens.

    Dvc discount at counter service restaurants?

    Thanks for the response. I know it isn't an advertised benefit. But I'm sure I got a discount in the past, on multiple occasions. I remember because CMs would ask for ID along with member card. It's small potatoes in the grand scheme of things. I was just curious

    Dvc discount at counter service restaurants?

    My apologies if this has been covered. Does anyone know if there is still a dvc member discount at counter service restaurants in wdw? I seem to remember getting 10% or so off at most places last summer, but a friend who visited recently said he was not able to get anything. Just wondering...

    Glow w/ the Show Ears

    Personally I was disappointed in them. Got 2 pairs for my kids and they were not in sync with each other during WoC. Occassionally they would seem to match the music but not consistently. The show was packed and I maybe saw 50 pairs in the crowd total, and there were several that were "off."...
