    What to Carry in the Parks

    We let our 15-year old go off in the parks on his own, but only if we are in the same park at the same time. I'd rather us spend time together, but I have found that he's a MUCH happier camper if I allow him to go ride Space Mountain while we are riding Dumbo with his little sister :cool: I...

    Crowd Level Calendar?

    things are slow right now--mid-September. I am hopeful that the trend stays that way, but the combination of free dining, F & W Festival opening weekend, MNSSHP, and Fall Break in some Southern schools is making PS nearly impossible through the first week of October at a lot of restaurants...

    Crowd Level Calendar?

    Len-- Do you anticipate any changes in early October, with what seems to be sounding like a busier-than-years-past time? I've been following the blogs all summer long, and I feel like I'm as prepared as I can be :) Madge

    Going in October

    That happened to me when I called for the Princess Breakfast at Epcot. I needed a table for 3, and all that was showing was a table for 4....the CM advised me to book it ASAP and go back and modify the PS from 4 to 3. That's exactly what I did, too, LOL...

    Going in October

    I have absolutely NO luck getting my Sci-Fi changed from Monday (10/3) to any other day of our trip. We aren't going to a park the day after MNSSHP...we are going to hang out at the resort. If that plan holds, I'll let you know when I cancel and maybe you can pick up my PS. edited to add: I...

    Going in October

    keep trying, even after you check in...sometimes people cancel I'm still hopeful that I'll catch a cancellation for CRT on 10/1, which is my DD 4th birthday. I have a seating later in the week, but I'd love to get one on her actual b'day.

    Going in October

    I'm ok with going on the 2nd vs. the 6th...once I got used to idea of doing the party early in our trip, instead of the last night. Our original plans included MNSSHP on 10/6, sleeping in on 10/7. We'd spend 10/7 hanging out at the resort and go to HDDR at 7:15pm on Friday as sort of our last...

    Going in October

    that's what I was told last night, too. Martha Jean from Disney Dining was EXTREMELY pleasant and helpful, while we went through restaurant after restaurant for our stay. I really appreciated her attitude and enthusiasm...hers was much better than mine, I think :) She even went as far as to...

    Going in October

    we were going on the 6th....I had it all planned so well, too....now we are going on October 2nd. I was able to switch my PS for the Crystal Palace to that day and we are really looking forward to be going to the party on Sunday (hopefully it will be a little less crowded), but I'm scrambling to...

    Going in October

    I'm having some of the same issues with Priority Seatings for early October. We changed our flight to leave (and come home) a day earlier, and it has been very frustrating trying to change some of the meals planned....I'm hoping to grab some cancellations over the next 3 weeks :::fingers...

    The Decline of Character Autographs

    I just finished up a scrapbook for my youngest--I took all the autographs & pictures from our Spring Break trip and mounted them in an 8x8 book. My daughter looks at that book every day and remembers each and every character she met on that trip. :) She is usually too awestruck to speak when...

    F&W Festival--Opening Weekend

    wow. I would not enjoy that at all :( When do the locals arrive, depart? Is Saturday the heaviest day, is there any way to know that?

    F&W Festival--Opening Weekend

    that's good to know! Our plan right now is to avoid Epcot on Saturday, but I'm back and forth about what we'll do on Fri & Sun, LOL

    Another new Offkilter album

    I ordered Kick It! off the website (wish I knew that they'd sign it when I placed my order :( ) and it was $20, shipped. No tax, no shipping....it costs the same as the CDs in the parks. :)

    F&W Festival--Opening Weekend

    F&W Festival-- How are Opening Weekend Crowds? How are the crowds for the opening weekend of the Food & Wine Festival? Crazy crowded? We want to catch Kansas at one of the Eat to the Beat concerts, not sure which of the 3 days would be the better choice. thanks :)

    WDW decides to lose money

    Does that include the entire month of October, or do things really start to pick up closer to Columbus Day, golf tournaments, etc.? I remember talking to a CM, just before the afternoon parade at the MK a couple of years ago. It was pretty quiet on Main Street, considering the parade was...
