Hey yall, My 3-year-old daughter loves the Disney Villains. When we were at MK last December, every time she met a princess, she would ask about the Villain. "Where's Mother Gothel?" "Where's Lady Tremaine?" "Where's Maleficent?" The princesses would say things like, "Oh, we don't have to worry...

Went Tues-Sun after Labor Day in 2013. Pro: Zero crowds. I mean... Ain't nobody there. Con: Some quick-service restaurants and shops will have limited hours or close early. Pro: Easier to get restaurant reservations for hot spots. Con: Hot. Oh dear sweet lord, it's hot. So hot. Pro: Did I...

I just re-read that and I didn't mean to sound cranky! We actually had a wonderful time and the advance FPs saved us hours of time in line. And when we did stand in line it wasn't too bad at all. We even managed to hit A&E at rope drop even though we arrived just as the welcome show was starting...

We just got back from a 5-day visit with crowds ranging from medium-low to Get-Me-the-F-Outta-Here-Before-I-Lose-My-Disney-Spirit. There are pros & cons both ways but the FP system may not give you much of a choice. When you book your FPs the system offers you several options based on some...

I'm here now and it looks beautiful. I don't know what it looked like before and I'm sure it'll look different after the holidays but right now it's very pretty and open and bright.

We stayed at CBR last September and loved it. It's a beautiful resort with lovely white sand beaches and hammocks and pretty buildings and lush tropical landscaping. The pool is awesome, especially the kids' section. The food is meh but who cares, just grab some bananas and granola bars and get...

Stayed there last fall. Allow at least an hour but it could be longer. A couple times it took us an hour and a half to get to/from MK and AK. It won't make that much of a difference what stop you're on; might be slightly faster going in to certain parks but slower coming home, and vice versa...

Hey @Jonathan Dalecki! Congrats on getting so far in the process! Even if you don't book the job this time around, Disney keeps files on performers they are interested in for a long time. [Source - I'm a Casting Director and have worked with Disney in the past.] Be sure to keep auditioning if...

Thank you so much! That is incredibly helpful. We are very excited!!

Hi all, We were JUST gifted a Disney Cruise on the Wonder for two weeks from today. We are completely new to cruising and a little overwhelmed (and astonishingly grateful!!). We don't really have the money to pay for excursions and besides, we are going to WDW in late December so we are trying...

Yo! OK, so... we are at the Poly Dec. 19-23. Me, DH, and little Princess 3-year-old. Not concerned about the construction. Can't resist a bargain and psyched about the 10-minute boat ride to MK and monorail to Epcot! Also, Tonga Toast. Itinerary: Day 1 arriving in the afternoon. MK -- we've...

Hi! Dec. 19-23 at Poly. Yes, I know it's under construction... it was cheap and we can't afford to stay there under the typical price points so I grabbed it while I could!

Hot dog! Anybody know the price yet?

Yes. And also, a nice way to relax and sit down for a hot second when you need a break. Do not, however, make the mistake (as we did, once) to use the Railroad for naps. It is much too noisy at times.

I know it's another thing to carry, but a portable fold-up potty like this one is super-lightweight and can be used literally ANYWHERE. Ours was a lifesaver in the early days of potty training. You can even stick old diapers underneath it (folded open) to catch whatever comes out, so that even...

Here's what I did for our upcoming trip (will let you know how it works!): Day One: -Scheduled FP+ for 7DMT for me -Scheduled simultaneous FP+ for Barnstormer for DD and DH -Scheduled two other FP+ for all three of us Day Two: -Scheduled FP+ for 7DMT for DH -Scheduled simultaneous FP+ for Dumbo...

Merida and Ariel!

My nugget (see avatar) never takes off her Elsa dress, not even while climbing all over the furniture and shouting "Look Mommy! I'm just like Merida!" Yes, darling. Yes you are. Now if you could just maybe NOT hang off of the blinds... that would be awesome... By the time we get to our Disney...

I'm relieved and thrilled to hear you say that, as I've already spent way too much time with the FP+ system and have a love/hate relationship with it already! I'd love to hear more specifics -- were there any attractions you couldn't get on due to wait times, or any FPs you were unable to get...

Definitely the departure day, but that's day five of the 5-day park-hopper ticket. I guess if we get to the park early enough it'll be worth it.
