    Your spot to stop and reflect "I just love WDW"

    Walking from Fantasyland to Liberty Square to Frontierland. It's my favorite area and I don't really know why. The atmosphere just makes me happy.

    A trip from disney to Clearwater?

    We are heading to Clearwater this fall, then over to Disney for a week. Fantastic tips! 2 years ago, we did Daytona then Orlando, but didn't really like the Atlantic side as much as past trips to the Gulf.

    Free Dining 2014?

    Bummer... We are excluded with our stay this fall. Was really hoping for free dining, but since we always lose money on the dining plan, we'll be paying out of pocket for the first time this trip.

    Le Cellier Filet w/Pea Risotto

    I totally agree! This annoys me. First Ohana now my FAVORITE mushroom risotto. I might try it, though, based on Tiggerish's recommendation. I've crossed Ohana off the list unless the chicken comes back.

    I just dont see how you guys do it.....

    I totally get you. Last year, we went in mid-October. A friend went about a month later, and I remember feeling pain at the thought of her being there. I mean, I don't know if "depression" is quite accurate, but I really just felt SAD.

    10 Most Disappointing Destinations in the World

    I live in Cincinnati, OH and King's Island charges ~$90/day. The difference in quality is night and day. Don't get me wrong, I have fun at KI but would rather do Disney in a milli-second!

    Food and Wine- What's your fave thing?

    I loved Poland's pierogi and kielbasa with a little Mickey's dollop of sour cream.

    'Ohana Cutbacks?

    Major bummer. Well, we won't be going there this fall like I planned. DD pretty much only eats chicken so that's a big "no go" for us.

    Disney secrets

    Last year, as we were exiting DAK, a CM came up to us and said something like, "You want to see something secret?" We briefly debated blowing off the slightly creepy guy, but said sure and he showed us a really un-secret tunnel through a cave that goes to a swinging bridge on the way out. Yes...

    Tiramisu?

    Mama Melrose's in DHS and Tutto Italia in Italy both serve it. I've had both. I actually liked Mama Melrose's better. I'm a tiramisu nut. Love it, love it.

    How long before they start charging for Star Wars Weekends?

    Star Wars Weekends look awesome and I'm surprised they haven't been extended. I work for a huge publically traded company and the pressures from Wall Street to continually show growth are super intense. Whether we, as consumers, like it, Disney is a business an they MUST continually make __%...

    Crowds for MNSSHP on October 31st

    We were there last fall, not on October 31, on a night that was sold out. I stressed about it all day, as soon as I saw the event had sold out. Turned out to be very manageable. I would never have guessed it was sold out. The parade was crazy packed but everything else was a total blast.

    Disappointed in Disney Monorail Staff

    I totally agree that it is most likely the fear of lawsuits. As far as I can tell, "laws" about liability in these cases are treated as general guidelines, and lawyers can twist things easily. Juries are easily swayed and once they feel emotionally connected/engaged, the letter of the law goes...

    Why is it so hard to get to the Magic Kingdom

    I have a whole series of pictures from the ferry to the MK from each of my trips. Why do I need 30 pictures, getting closer and closer and closer. I don't know. It's an involuntary reaction!

    Disney to increase the number of FastPass+ entitlements per day and include park hopping

    I am excited by this but still feel I'll be kind of out of luck if my FP+ are pre-booked in the afternoon. I still have to do only stand-by in the mornings. So- do I want to go to my preferred park in the morning and take my chances for FP+ in the afternoons? Hmmm, will need to think more...

    The Diamond Horseshoe open for quick service lunch and table service dinner in April

    I see they're going to offer a family-style turkey dinner. Do they ever do this at Thanksgiving? We were there a couple of years ago that time of year, and they weren't open so I don't expect they will. I've never actually seen it used as anything other than a dance party venue at MNSSHP.

    going to Biergarten for the 1st time

    These comments are super helpful. I'm seriously thinking of making this our "adventurous" ADR this year. I'll try just about anything, but not quite sure about DH and DD. The show looks like such fun, though, that it might be time to give it a try!

    Going in The Beginning of December...Tips and Ideas

    We will be there the same week. Were there same time 2 years ago. My biggest tip would be- bring jeans/pants and a jacket. The days were perfect for me, but it was pretty chilly after sunset for DD and me.

    Connected to the "real world" while at WDW?

    I don't check any email, turn on the TV at all, or read/listen to the news. At all. With a very plugged-in family, DH and I take pride in truly disconnecting at the World. All of this comes with the obvious disclaimer that we use the app to navigate our trip. There's not much of a choice...

    FastPass+ booked at 87 days out

    Did you just happen to try and were able to do it? Did you an email notification? We went during the testing period last fall, and never got an email. I just kept checking myDisneyExperience and they were magically available one day. We're going again this fall but I'm curious how it works...
