    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    I don't recall seeing this thread so quiet before. There were only three posts today. I actually take that as a good sign.

    Gasp! :oops: Were you afraid to expose it to alien influences? Seriously, an awesome set of descriptions. Thank you.

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    Actually, not entirely political in design, but it does seem to be working out that way. Unlike most such reviews of Executive Branch decisions, the appeals process for the OSHA Emergency rules anticipates multiple national challenges, is very complicated, and is set out in statutes. See for...

    News Disney mask policy at Walt Disney World theme parks

    I hope your prediction is right, but there are few to no Table Service reservations available in the parks for the first two weeks in December -- all day long. For example, only Rose & Crown avail in Epcot, and that's for Processional seating package. So I'm guessing the parks will not be at low...

    While that was also my first impression, I used "Impfpflicht" on my 3-month old granddaughter, and she understood it perfectly. Smiled right away.

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    I've been just skipping many posts for a bit and skimming others. Still, I caution other commenters that the best way to handle newbies whose positions and arguments are more reminiscent of "Groundhog Day" (where everything repeats), is not to raise the temperature. That only leads to more heat...

    Trying to decide on October 2022 and November 2022. Please help.

    Pretty good indicator that @RoadiJeff is right: Table Service reservations the first and second week in December 2021 are very scarce, even in Epcot, all day long. If you're organized, can hit the 60-day reservation window, and know what you want so you can move quickly as the reservation window...

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    Actually before the 1800's, so you likely meant the 18th Century. Ben Franklin's regret over not vaccinating his son was in 1736. (Note: my father was a scholar of the Founders, including a definitive autobiography of Franklin.) From the Nat'l Library of Medicine, NIH...

    Overwhelmed by off-property hotel choices

    @Rob562: If you get a room where the front door opens directly into the bathroom door, be sure to keep your bathroom door closed even when the front door is locked. :rolleyes:

    Trip Report **completed**Our not so perfect, but good enough July 2021 trip

    Thanks for posting this great story. I started coaching Powder Puff football in high school, coached co-ed college flag football, taught a beginners' undergraduate collegiate course in football, coached PeeWee and high school football for many years (we had several young women on my teams, and...

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    Yes, there is some truth in what you say: sometimes the same arguments are made over and over, especially when new participants who haven't reviewed jump in and ask the same questions and get the same answers, over and over. But you may be overlooking the purpose of a long thread, which is to...

    News Disney KiteTails coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom October 1

    Although I actually like the show and think it's quite fixable, I'll be surprised if Legal doesn't recommend that it be shut down. Can you imagine if Baloo had crashed just a few feet further along, through the railing at whatever bar that was, and into the people watching? The balloons are...

    BG's have always been quiet places for garden viewing, as has SeaWorld. Good choices for your trip's relaxing portion.

    Overwhelmed by off-property hotel choices

    A little off-topic, but as long as we're talking about hotels there, I want to put in a word (of warning) about the Anaheim Hilton at the Convention Center. At least for our room, the front door opened directly into the bathroom door (and you can guess where I'm going with this). Yes, a hotel...

    News Disney KiteTails coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom October 1

    They did do a kite show (with a lot more) in Epcot many years ago: Surprise in the Skies. It also had daytime fireworks, ultra-light aircraft pulling the kites, and more performers. It only lasted a year. Having said that, this isn't a disaster. It could be vastly improved with a few, low-cost...

    @Touchdown "FTFY. Other then the Burnside you can’t have facial hair and wear an N95z." That may depend on the N95. I have a moustache and I achieve an excellent fit with an American-made "duckbill" N95. The large, sideways "pouch" makes it 75% more breathable than the NIOSH-certified minimum...

    Anyone else having trouble with Visitors Toll Pass app from Central Fla Expressway Authority?

    UPDATE: I was able (finally!) to get the VTP app to accept data and have now registered for the Visitors Toll Pass. Looking forward to visiting the CFEA vending machines after midnight when my flight arrives at MCO. Thanks for all the comments.

    Flamingo Crossing Retail Center

    The people at HHAGG are great. I will point out that some of their dishes are not what you think you're ordering. For example, I ordered the Chicken Pot Pie; we all know what a Chicken Pot Pie is, right? Nice flaky crust surrounding chicken and veggies in a creamy sauce in the center, right? Not...

    Reservation Question for the pros...

    I'm with them, but there are some seating areas around the various CS and snack locations. For example, As an older person, I now understand the value of what my father used to do at DL (before it was DLR): let us kids roam around while he would sit and "people-watch." Except for the busiest...
