    What's your favorite appetizers?

    Pre-Trip Only in Disney: The Jersey Boardwalk and the Pacific Northwest in One Easy Step!

    A big update, everyone! I have this bad habit of constantly checking the Disney website for reservations. My newest obsession has become checking the Star Wars dessert party page to see if more dates have been released (I know that the fireworks have only been extended through October, but I...

    Biggest Disney Pet Peeve

    As a few other posters have said, nothing bothers me more than people talking through the pre-shows and the rides and attractions themselves. I know many people think it's their vacation and if they want to talk through everything, it's their right, but how dare you ruin everyone else's...

    Pre-Trip Only in Disney: The Jersey Boardwalk and the Pacific Northwest in One Easy Step!

    Thank you! My Mom made the costume, but she and my Dad drew the line at "actually" dressing up. So she made the shirts instead (which I think were even better than a "real" costume). Tons of CMs and other guests complimented us. And it made the villain character interaction at the Soiree way...

    Pre-Trip Only in Disney: The Jersey Boardwalk and the Pacific Northwest in One Easy Step!

    Good luck! As far as I know, it's easier to get breakfast and lunch ADRs there, so keep checking! I've never actually had a before-park-opening breakfast (my mom has threatened bodily harm), but I will someday! That's so exciting! There's nothing quite like Disney at Christmas! Like I said...

    Pre-Trip Only in Disney: The Jersey Boardwalk and the Pacific Northwest in One Easy Step!

    Thank you :) Thank you! And it does! With a tree, wreathes and garland! I haven’t seen it in person yet, but I’m so excited to! I must confess, that pic and the chocolate waffles pic are not mine. I couldn’t find my Christmas pics for my first post, so I “borrowed” one from the internet...

    Pre-Trip Only in Disney: The Jersey Boardwalk and the Pacific Northwest in One Easy Step!

    OK, so now to share our daily plans (mostly ADRs and what parks when). The last time we went to Disney at Christmastime was when I was still in college and we got the bright idea to go for Christmas week (I was young, naïve, and not a member of this website ;)). We took Amtrak from New Jersey...

    Pre-Trip Flights are on sale, hotels are on sale....

    We love the Boardwalk! It definitely comes to life at night and has a much more lively atmosphere than the other resorts, as well. Be sure to just stroll one night and catch some of the performers! I'm happy you'll get to see MSEP one more time! We'll miss it (not arriving until late...

    Best Snack at Disney World?

    I'm almost positive you can get the PB&J shake at the bar. I'm pretty sure they can make it to-go, too!

    Pre-Trip Disney World August 2016 (AKA Riding Haunted Mansion a Minimum of Six Times)

    Wow! You have a great trip planned! Have fun! I'm thinking of booking the Star Wars dessert party as a surprise for my parents (if Disney continues it into December, that is), so I'm eager to hear what you think of it! Also, since you mentioned you love lounges/bars, be sure to hit Territory...

    Disney Copycat Characters

    He was indeed pretty awesome and stole the show both times I saw it. But I've heard good things about Will Chase!

    Disney Copycat Characters

    Completely off topic, but I've seen Something Rotten! twice and it is INCREDIBLE. It is great, great fun. Enjoy it!! On topic, when I was in NYC a few weeks ago, the costumed people in Times Square seemed even worse than before. In front of Hard Rock Cafe, a Spiderman held his hand out for a...

    Jungle Navigation Skippers Canteen Restaurant ADR

    We're there the last week of November and first week of December. I know the refurb is theoretically supposed to be done by then, but I also know that Disney has been notorious for things running behind schedule lately, so I'm planning on it still being closed. That way, if it is open, it will...
