South of the Border still appears to be open, but there’s very few vehicles there every time we drive past it. That place was as crowded as Bucee’s is today back in the 70’s and 80’s.

@Lilofan , South of the Border is like a ghost town! It was a happening place years ago. We would stop there and grab a few of those tacky bumper stickers.

I’m with you on that! We’re retired so our situation is quite different. When we were both working we’d always fly.

I love your enthusiastic plan!! We travel regularly down the I-95 corridor to Florida. It’s strange times indeed out there. You really can’t go wrong with stopping at Pilot, Flying J, or any of the larger travel stops. We’ve found that the safer rest areas are the larger ones at the entrance to...

That’s a good idea @MickeyLuv'r . I’ll do that one day this week. We’ll be there in October.

Thanks so much @Tuvalu

I renewed our APs today and afterwards I thought maybe I should have added the Photo Pass option. I went back on the MDE App however I couldn’t find way to add it on. Is that something I can do at Guest Relations?

We’ve been driving for a long time now. But we usually make other stops along the way like Savannah and St. Augustine. For a change of pace, we’ll take the Autotrain on the way back. Make sure you stop at a Bucee’s travel stop. The first time I saw those 100 gas pumps I was in Heaven. Of course...

We’ve found they’re very good at helping with building requests. Like @nickys stated it depends on what type of room you reserved. We have found it’s best to get there as early as possible. Arriving later the pool of rooms available shrinks.

It’s only “Free” if the guard lets you in to park.

We’ve stayed at POFQ and POR and haven’t found the dogs to be a problem. I think they are “confined” to certain buildings. We may see 2 maybe 3 dog guests at most. Most of the dog guests are found at FW.

@Monkee Girl , do you think it’s up there with a Wawa Sizzli?

That Lemon Bread should be enshrined on Mt. Snackmore!

I enjoy getting up early and heading to the food court for my morning java. I’ll find a quiet spot somewhere and bust out my iPad Air and enjoy the solitude.

I typically only take my cell phone with me and like others have posted I’ve been “selected” for further inspection after going thru the same entrance and machine sometimes on the same day. It’s frustrating, but you just need to go with the flow. Using the wand, they never find anything that...

With the Monorail, Skyliner, and buses all returning to Pre-Covid operations, those reasons can probably be ruled out. Does anyone here know if you need a CDL license with passenger endorsement to operate the Trams? Is it similar to the requirements to operate a bus? Although Trams don’t operate...

It would definitely be nice to have more water filling stations. I guess at $3.50 for a bottle of water, we probably won’t be seeing them though. I bought a case of 32 bottles of water at Lowe’s last week for $4.97. Granted it wasn’t Dasani, but it was wet.

My Brother and I drove down from Delaware in 1973 with a Ford Pinto station wagon for our 1st trip. Pitched a tent at Fort Wilderness and thought we were in Paradise for 5 days! Thanks to @mergatroid for posting that cool video!

We’ve been taking pictures in that same exact spot for years! It may possibly be the most popular photo op except for maybe Main St with the Castle in the background. In all of those times everyone waiting to take a picture was very respectful and waited their turn.

Since we’ve heard so many great things about Dollywood on this forum, we’re heading there in June to experience it.
