    Need shoes for Disney - Nike preferred

    Do you have a Nike outlet store near you? You can find good prices on the shoes and you can pull the shoes off the shelf to try on, no having to grab a salesperson. I've got flat feet and through a lot of trial and error, I've found that running shoes are the best for me. Nike's Air Zoom Pegasus...

    Best Place to find Music/Audio from Disneyland and Walt Disney World?

    Any fans of Subsonic Radio on here? They've got 15 stations to choose from. When I'm reading the posts on here, I'm always listening. Usually to Future World, Background or the Great Music Ride. Good stuff.

    News Tomorrowland love

    Way back in he day, I got a pepperoni pizza at the Lancer's Inn in Fantasyland. The pepperoni slices had pooled grease in the middle. I tried soaking the grease up with napkins. I ate it and was projectile vomiting a short time later.

    News Primeval Whirl, Stitch's Great Escape and Rivers of Light permanently closed

    Saw it two years ago tonight from the bridge between Asia and Dinoland. 5 minutes inato the show, they had a computer glitch and the show stopped. They rebooted and the boats went back to where they started from. Then the show restarted and went as planned. It was ok, I had higher hopes for it.

    Favorite Restaurant at Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Mama Melrose's has always been our "go to" for table service. We seem to luck out most of the time and have some of the Citizens of Hollywood show up while we're dining. Adds even more to the ambiance.

    Are you looking forward to the Spaceship Earth refurb?

    I'd much rather see an update of the ride scenes, new narration and do something with the top and descent that's been missing since the last refurb.

    NBA Experience at Disney Springs

    FWIW, when I was down there last week, I wasn't sure it was open because I saw no one entering or exiting.

    There were literally tens of people excited about this, I'm shocked too.

    All star music suites.

    We stayed in a suite in the jazz section last summer. We liked it. It was our second time staying at an All Star, a few years back we had two adjoining rooms at Sports. Neither time did we share a bus with the other All Stars. The food court has the standard Disney food offerings. If there's a...

    Ever had a awkward encounter at Disney?

    I have something similar to what the OP gave as an example. During Food & Wine in 2014, I ran into someone from my hometown who was with another person from my hometown. That other person was not their spouse. White as ghosts when they saw me. I wasn't friends with either of them, but we had...

    Tom Sawyer Island appreciation thread

    I had never been to it (been going since I was a kid in the '70's) until we checked it out during our 2009 trip. My wife had taken our 11 month old daughter to meet Minnie Mouse so that gave us the opportunity. My two boys and I had a blast. They loved the fort with the guns and cannons. I...

    News Disney to offer discount on new MagicBand designs as an optional alternative to complimentary solid color MagicBands

    I finally got the one I wanted for my solo trip. I had been trying since this offer began. I made it to the checkout several times with it but somehow it was no longer available when I clicked on the complete order tab. Glad it's done.

    News Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser coming to Walt Disney World 2021

    That's exactly what I was going to comment. Nice to know that I'm not the only one who thinks this.

    First timer for the Halloween party what's your go to?

    The Boo To You parade is a must see. It was our family's favorite thing about the party. Give yourself time to get a good front row seat. And get there early enough before 4:00 pm to account for the crowds going through security. We didn't and we didn't get in until way later than we intended.

    Favorite off-site hotel?

    Have you checked out the Wyndham Lake Buena Vista? It's across Buena Vista Drive from Disney Springs along Hotel Plaza Boulevard. There's a skywalk that you can use to cross the road at the intersection. Stayed there a long time ago but it looks much nicer now than it did back in the day...
