    Marketplace Causeway construction

    Yes. I went back and found one of @WDWtraveler 's photos from during the construction. My photo is from one of the pillars in the picture.

    Marketplace Causeway construction

    This photo was taken in October of 2015, so the plaque couldn't have been more than a few months old. You never realize how sub-par something looks until you see a really nice version of it.

    2 Rides in the Same Show Building?

    Perhaps you're thinking of the Carousel of Progress when it was in Disneyland? I believe the main show was on the first level, and the second level had some sort of post-show movie.

    ISO tips for a 1st time driver at WDW

    For navigating the World, my biggest tip is do NOT rely on GPS/traffic apps. A lot of the time, if you go by the "official" address of a park or resort, the app. won't route you correctly. They certainly are good things to reference, but not as the primary means of navigating. Before you head...

    Disney Glitches/Malfunctions

    On our last trip, we were on Buzz in the space tunnel near the end when the ride stopped moving. After several rounds of "sit tight" / "the ride will be moving immediately", the show effects went off, the work lights went on, and some safety rails popped up. It was pretty neat to see what that...

    What Disney merchandise would you like to see in the parks?

    A few people have mentioned the quality of the items. Along those lines, I'd just like some consistency in the t-shirt sizing. It's almost impossible to find two different designs that fit the same. Disney uses so many different bases for the designs that buying a shirt without trying it on...

    Not enough Ride merchandise? Poll/discussion

    I've had this set since the mid- to late-90s. I think they came from The Disney Store, but the parks might have also sold them.

    Best sunscreen for the parks?

    I've used the Equate Sport 50spf for the last year or so, and it works great for me. It rubs in fairly easily and has a subtle "generic suntan lotion" scent.

    Disney Stores to start offering World of Disney Store-like merchandise

    If it's the outlet store I'm thinking of, it's not a true "Disney Outlet". It's just a Disney Store that happens to be in a "Premium Outlet" shopping center and carries a very small selection of discount goods. I'd say that 90% of the merchandise there is regular Disney Store stuff.

    TSA Candy Snack Check.

    In May, I had the magical trifecta of electronics, snacks, and "perfect" timing. Everything in my carry-on was unpacked and examined. (Food packages did not get opened.) I'm thinking TSA didn't like the loose batteries, travel alarm clock, and Rice Krispie treat. (RK Treats and fudge don't...

    Sound Lion now closed at Disney Springs

    I highly recommend the Tupelo Honey. YUM!

    Favorite food no longer sold

    That is one of my favorite types of sandwiches. I've happened to luck into them as specials at both Olivia's and Earl of Sandwich. DELICIOUS!

    Add 1 day to current hopper, or buy 1-day, single-park ticket?

    Definitely add a day instead of buying a one-day ticket. BUT, make sure you use at least one admission from your ticket before adding the day. This "locks in" the ticket price, so you only have to pay the difference between the current Disney 4- and 5-day prices. If you try to do it before...

    Viewing spots for solar eclipse

    So that's why DVC offered the contract extension for OKW. :D

    Magicband Shipping

    I'm not 100% positive, but I may not have even received a shipping notification this past April (for a May trip). Sometimes when I'm expecting a package that is being shipped by multiple carriers (like MagicBands are), it actually shows up at my house before any shipping status is updated.

    Excalibur

    And be careful not to let your little sister cut in front of you when attempting to release Excalibur. She may just end up extricating it, in what would've been your turn, and be named "Princess for the Day." While this may earn her three magical wishes, much sibling drama will ensue. (See...

    Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway confirmed

    It sort of makes sense that these signs are up, but none yet on Energy. The Chinese Theater is smack dab in the middle of the park. Energy is off to the side, down some pathways. The sandwich board can suffice, at least for now.

    WDW Food Pictures Of The Day Part II

    That does look really good, but my go-to at Cookes is the Battered Chicken Tenders. Some of the best chicken tenders I've ever had. :hungry:

    MuppetVision closed until August 2nd for unexpected Maintenance

    Indubitably! Sidenote: In the movie, it's actually "dociousaliexpilisticfragicalirupes". Sidenote 2: How did this go almost 7 hours without an answer to your question?!? I am disappointed in my fellow WDWMagicians.
