    PHOTOS - Disney reveals new lobby design and Trader Sam's lounge for the Polynesian

    I'm looking at your picture of the Uh Oa...did they run out of the original Uh Oa bowls again and using the clamshell by TikiFarm? Or is that an older picture?

    PHOTOS - Disney reveals new lobby design and Trader Sam's lounge for the Polynesian

    Yes I anger the tiki gods over there quite frequently. Its a shame they don't allow real conversation, but to a degree I can understand.

    PHOTOS - Disney reveals new lobby design and Trader Sam's lounge for the Polynesian

    Well I understand the family friendly aspect (good luck with that, Florida!), but I don't think a child can sit at a bar where alcohol is served. If there's a bartender behind the counter, the child can't sit there. The reason being that somebody can slip a drink to the minor quite easily, or...

    PHOTOS - Disney reveals new lobby design and Trader Sam's lounge for the Polynesian

    By the sound of it, you people have never seen concept art before. Keep in mind this is all concept and nothing is final, but it is a rough idea of the result. Even the concept art for Trader Sam's Enchanted Tiki Bar is off - the final result has pretty noticeable changes! Also, you can't think...

    amenities at Disneyland Hotel

    You could probably best find all the info on the official site, but all basic hotel rooms have the same amenities.

    Another "for anyone that's been to Disneyland" question

    One thing I'll say that stinks about Blue Bayou is that if you aren't seated on the waterfront, its a really weakened experience. A lot of seats are close to the entryway which brings in a TON of natural light, and that really kills the intimate atmosphere (that is if you go during the day, and...

    Another "for anyone that's been to Disneyland" question

    You don't have to make insane 60 day reservations, but make them maybe 2 weeks or so before your trip if you're concerned. Napa Rose tops the fine dining experience easily, though you'll spend the most money there as well. If you really wanna go all-out, get a reservation for the Chef's Table...

    Poop smell?

    As others have said, there's definite poop and sewage pockets. For me the most memorable is in the outside waiting queue of Pirates - always go right, never left. The left side leads sorta behind Tarzan's Treehouse and its particularly bad there. There's patches within Main St USA that give you...

    Characters?

    Precisely the reason people don't like the film: they're tired of Larry the Cable Guy.

    Disneyland Hotel Mothers Day brunch quietly cancelled

    I read it and didn't see the word "cancelled" anywhere. Maybe I didn't pay close enough attention.

    Where did it say it's cancelled?

    So....where should we eat?

    Steakhouse 55, Carthay Circle, and Napa Rose will do you some fiiiiine meals if you don't mind spending a little. I go all out when at Napa Rose - Chef's Table for 2 was well worth the cash.

    Disney is going to scale back the Polynesian DVC plans in a big way.

    You have Forbidden Island, Tonga Room, and Smuggler's Cove, and they can't make a Painkiller? I'm pretty sure you could get one :p (From Forbidden Island's site, "From the Soggy Dollar Bar on the tiny island of Jost Van in the British Virgin Islands comes this world-famous creamy blend of...

    Disney is going to scale back the Polynesian DVC plans in a big way.

    You misunderstand me - the zombie isn't made from a mix, like you'd buy a gross Bacardi zombie mix, but rather one of the ingredients is pre-mixed (in bar) collection of juices, spices, syrups, etc. This way, rather than pouring 16 different ingredients you only have to pour 6. Its like the...

    I believe its back to the original show, no additions.

    Disney is going to scale back the Polynesian DVC plans in a big way.

    I wouldn't place any bets on an auto dispenser type machine, lol. That sounds horrid and insulting to any serious mixologist, and despite whatever knocks the bartenders throughout WDW may or may not receive, I believe those in charge of food and liquor through Disney wouldn't allow it. I...

    Disney is going to scale back the Polynesian DVC plans in a big way.

    Yeah I can't speak too much as to WDW and Springs. I've seen the vacancies in Springs but if I recall, there was a bit of a jumping to the conclusion that Sam's was going to be in Springs to begin with. I believe it was a hasty move to include the Sam's logo on that mood board of potential...

    Disney is going to scale back the Polynesian DVC plans in a big way.

    Max occupancy is much higher than 30 I know that, closer to 50. But think about what works with Sam's - its intimate (which means small, close quarters, chummy, etc), and the effects are shared with everybody. Smaller chunks means that you don't share the experience. You suddenly have a...

    Disney is going to scale back the Polynesian DVC plans in a big way.

    I can't speak 100% as to what a typical WDW guest would care about - I think they vary from the typical DL guest which are almost guaranteed to be Southern California locals. But my concern isn't for the average guest, its for the regulars - and I don't mean regular barflies. The average guest...
