    Caribbean Beach, Coronado Springs, FW Cabins...

    How many are going? And when are you going? My brother and his tribe of 5 stayed at the FW Cabins, which we visited, and they're very nice, easily the best "rooms" of the resorts you've selected. CSR and CBR are the two most divisive moderates, and we're big fans of the CBR (Disclaimer: I've...

    Caribbean Beach Resort: May Construction Updates & Skyliner Questions?

    Thanks all for the input. What I'm specifically looking for is whether the pylons in Jamaica and Aruba are up yet. I'm aware that a lot of pylons are up. The Gondola thread is useful information, but no pictures of pylons up in the Jamaica/Aruba area of CBR. However, very good updates on the...

    Help choosing a resort for trip #2

    Port Orleans French Quarter sounds like what you need regarding cost and compactness. The only issue might be restaurants, and in that case, take the boat to Disney Springs. Also, the new Minnie Van service that Disney is offering has vans that are equipped to deal with disabilities, so if your...

    Caribbean Beach Resort: May Construction Updates & Skyliner Questions?

    We'll be arriving in 2 weeks, and, naturally, all the vlog updates have dried up; the last updates I've had visuals on are about a month old. When we booked, it was with an awareness of the Rivera construction and the Old Port Royale/Centertown construction projects. We've always loved CBR...

    Anyone else annoyed by the ropes and nets all along the waters edge at all the beach front resorts?

    I'll be seeing them for the first time in less than 2 weeks. It's a tragic loss of innocence. I've seen speculation that it's not a coincidence that the attack came after the Polynesian Bungalows opened, with people living over the water, with reports/rumors that some people had been feeding...

    Blizzard Beach or typhoon Lagoon?

    The ages of the kids is useful. If they're tykes, and not tall enough to ride the regular rides, BB has a better kid area, although Typhoon Lagoon's kid's area isn't bad. We like Typhoon Lagoon better. In addition to the whole Typhoon theming, it just has a Beach Movie/Surf's Up vibe that just...

    Opinion: Toy Story Land's grand opening will be a disaster

    Is it going to be a disaster? To paraphrase a resident of the Hall of Presidents, define what do you mean by "disaster"? Is it going to be hot and overcrowded? Yes, of course. I still remember 10 years ago, getting into a soft opening for TSMM. It was our last day, and we waited hours in line...

    I'm 50 years old and about to go to the Magic Kingdom for the first time

    Embrace your inner kid, and have fun! We'll be leaving just before you get there. :) If you have your tickets, get your Fastpasses going, and fast You might want to snag a fastpass for Toy Story Mania on June 10th, although that freezes you from doing any in any other park than HS until that...
