    Will you be available to explain this to my in laws? I’m tired.

    I can't wait trying to explain the new system the next time I plan a family reunion. At least there's now a reasonably priced liquor store near me.

    Rumor My Genie Conclusions - The Future of WDW’s Ticketing

    H&R Block was getting squeezed pretty hard by Turbo Tax, but now they’re hoping that their new WDW planning section can reverse the trend. I just brought them a proposed itinerary for 2023. Bit disappointed that on W, 10/18/2023 I won’t be able to get the Columbia Harbor House lobster roll until...

    News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

    Saw they were advertising for WS lagoon “barge hose holders”. Kudos where kudos is due. I figure 4 guys with garden hoses would turn this into a thing of epic beauty. I thought it might be fire hoses, but that flow rate would be ocular overkill.

    News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

    Funny. I was just thinking about the fact that there may not be a lot of good viewing angles for this. That could be disastrous from a guest satisfaction perspective.

    [Rumor] Rock n Roller Coaster Starring Olivia Rodrigo

    A few questions before I weigh in with my considered opinion. Who is Olivia Rodrigo? Am I to infer that Aerosmith is a music group? Is rock and roller coaster a ride of some type? Where is it located? Thanks!

    World of Motion crushed both versions of Test Track. However, I’ve been told that I would no longer enjoy a 15 minute ride rich with show scenes and animatronics because I have a cell phone and that a non thrilling, nonsensical thrill ride is preferable. Further, the existence of more rides with...

    News Disney mask policy at Walt Disney World theme parks

    Can I still wear my bespoke Bob Chapek mask? It seems to yield top class service. Only at Disney themed recreational areas for some reason, but much of life is a mystery to me.

    We wound up driving over, so my daughter could use the fitness center.

    Right. DAK need more rides regardless of how things are organized and it has two of the most popular shows on property. FNtM being closed is incredibly impactful.

    I also don't know if this will play into Disney stratagems in the future, but I took part in the Hagrid's Motor Bike Adventure of Magic and Fun for Everyone virtual queue test. Different from the rise of the resistance virtual queue. You register for the virtual queue in the app. It starts a...

    Relatedly, I just came back from a week of staying at the Poly on points and visiting the Uni parks. The wait times at Uni were 15-30% shorter than posted and this seemed consistent over the course of 3 different days. Since we weren't staying at Uni I opted to wait in line as opposed to telling...

    We’re using DVC points for the room and using some pre Covid Uni tix bought through my wife’s work before they expire. But, I’m sure Hawaii is more authentic.

    It isn’t the price of a ticket plus the express pass. Cheapest I could get the one ride Express pass for a family of four was $946 for one day. Most expensive unlimited for one day was ~ $1400. Edit: See you already figured it out. Leaving my post as a reminder why we’re getting up in the morning.

    Dittos. Just my nuclear family this July at the Poly. I’ve got to get my Tonga toast, poolside Dole Whip, etc. We’re actually not setting foot in a Disney theme park this time. I’m less of a sucker every time a strawberry swirl, Figaro fries, or cinnamon roll bites the dust.

    Dining with characters is done

    Slightly off topic, but not completely - two 8th graders were able to eat at The Good Turn and leave a tip without much of a thought about prices. We really felt like adults that day. I also recall walking around and we imagined all the high school and college age girls thinking of us as cute...

    Trouble in paradise officially?

    I saved over 18 grand last year by gambling a little less on those exciting rooster rasslin' matches that my neighbor has in his basement.

    [Rumor] Rock n Roller Coaster Starring Olivia Rodrigo

    The mere mention of Lemonade Mouth gets a over the top negative reaction from my 18 year old son, so I'm all for it as well.

    [Rumor] Rock n Roller Coaster Starring Olivia Rodrigo

    I mentioned Slayer was number 2. In no particular order, others being considered are Kool and the Gang, Justin Bieber, GWAR, Celine Dion, "well behaved" Miley Cyrus, King Crimson, Menudo, The London Philharmonic, Selena Gomez, the Second Presbyterian church bell choir, and William Shatner.
