    Animal Kingdom Expansion - Studio Ghibli and Zootopia

    Love the idea of a Studio Ghibli land! I either forgot or didn't know that Disney owned that IP. I wasn't too crazy about Zootopia - I liked the rabbit character a lot (and the sloths!), but aside from that it was all pretty forgettable.

    News Tony's Most Merriest Town Square Party comes to Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party for 2018

    While this sounds insane, is there anything similar for MNSSHP that includes a reserved viewing area for the parade? I realize I could just pay someone a few hundred dollars to move the frack out of our way. I see there's a dessert party for the fireworks, but don't see anything for the parade...

    Does Disney still send the welcome booklet...

    We didn't get that when we booked recently (we leave in a couple of days), BUT we booked very late, and we booked through an agent. So, hard to say. Maybe it depends how far out you book and how you book. We got our Magic Bands, ME tags, party tickets, but that's it.

    Apple Sauce in Resort Food Shops?

    Anyone know if the resort food shops typically have apple sauce cups? My son needs it to take medication.

    Trip Report Waddling Around the World - 28 weeks pregnant, F&W Fall '18

    Following along too! Wow, you got a lot done the first half of that day. We'll be there soon, but we're not great at being early risers or at least being ready to scoot out the door on travel days.

    The Miscellaneous Thought Thread

    Interesting. All I can say is I wouldn't wear it. Anywhere.

    The Miscellaneous Thought Thread

    They couldn't have been too happy with that either, but maybe they don't bother with stuff like that now. Not official merchandise, eh?

    At what age would/did you let your kid(s) watch Avatar?

    We'll be at WDW soon with my 9-yr-old son. He's somehow watched enough YouTube videos that he knows more about Avatar and Pandora at WDW than I realized. But he hasn't seen the movie, and I was wondering if watching it might give more context to the whole idea of going to Pandora in WDW. If you...

    FOP for 6 year old?

    Don't they allow rider switch? Seems like this would have been the perfect solution for that family.

    Pandora Flight of Passage - Can Big People Fit on the Ride?

    I know the seats on FoP have limits based on a combination of height and size, but is there some specific weight limit? Someone posted something on a different thread that made it sound like there was a weight limit, but I thought it was just whether or not the restraints will accommodate you...

    WSJ: WDW a favorite spot to scatter ashes

    I was about to scatter ashes in WDW when a noisy, Brazillian tour group cut in front of me to scatter ashes!

    I was in Disneyland for one day on one of those cross-country teen tours in 1980. A kid I'd become friends with was wearing a t-shirt with an image of a certain plant leaf on it. You know. It wasn't a maple leaf! At the park entrance they made him turn his shirt inside-out in order to enter the...

    How Many Days for You? Part 12

    We'll be at WDW next week. Looks to be a great week weather-wise! Sunday is described by Accuweather as "Delightful!" We've had good luck on our few visits, I don't think I've ever been there when it was raining. But I spent some summers in Miami when I was younger, and seen some hurricanes and...

    Is there no nighttime parade in the MK anymore?

    They also had that earlier show with projections on the castle, I forget what time that was and what it was called - before the parade? It didn't seem to be a problem. I guess since they got rid of the parade everyone feels they need to see this show which is the projection show and fireworks...

    Is there no nighttime parade in the MK anymore?

    I don't get it - isn't HEA just the current fireworks show, and didn't that always come after the parade? Why is HEA getting crowds so much larger than what the previous fireworks show (Wishes?) got? Is it that different?

    Coonskin! Probably very few people know what that movie is these days.

    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    The only time I rode TLS was when I was a kid, and I didn't like it. A couple of times I rode actual gas-powered go carts that aren't attached to a track and go faster, and that was much more fun. TLS was like riding the PeopleMover without anything interesting to look at.
