The great thing about mistakes is that they can often be corrected. In this case, your "mistake" has, over the decades, been turned into millions of people's favorite theme park in the world, and ranks high on the list for millions of others. I don't fault you for your controversial stance and...

I stayed in most of the Value and Moderates as a kid - some many times - and some of each as an adult, and I find it becomes more and more true the older I get (first trip when I was 8 weeks old in the 80s, one or two most years through my childhood and teens, then many trips in my 20s and 30s)...

Chalk up another vote for Moderates. I couldn't justify the price of a Deluxe with your situation/mindset, but I still feel the Moderates get you out of that "barely above Motel 6" feeling I have in many (not all, but many) of the Value rooms. I'm not old, but as I've gotten "older", I've...

I probably have a better chance of winning PowerBall, but I always hope to spot myself and my brother when people post 80s and 90s WDW photos. We used to bring those disposable cameras our parents or grandparents would buy us, but apparently we were too young to realize we should actually take...

I actually wouldn't mind an Incredicoaster theme with that ride from a strictly ride point of view. Being indoors, I feel like it could work, as there's probably a lot more that could be done well with a steel indoor coaster for that type of theme compared to the wooden Incredicoaster in DL...

Really good things to think about and exactly the types of thoughts I'm looking for. Thanks so much! I have thought about renting DVC points before but never went through with it. I'll look into it again. Also, a good splash pad is a must!

I'm happy we're seeing a lot of the new-style Mickey and Minnie characters integrated and hope it continues. I love everything about those new cartoon shorts and think the animators and writers are doing a fantastic job.

With our second boy due in June, we likely won't be going on another family vacation until mid next year at the earliest. There's simply no way my wife will want to go to Disney while still breast-feeding and pumping - plus have a toddler - and she wants to breast feed until the baby is about a...

January 2020 near the end of a LONG (and awesome) solo day at DL/CA.

What a great trip report. Enough details to make me feel like I was there but still a quick and enjoyable read. You've inspired me to write my own of our most recent trip after this (I'll probably include some pics but it was only two days lol). My son is two and my second son is due in less...

Coco 100%. In the Epcot Mexico pavilion taking the place of Gran Fiesta Tour, which I love but there was never a more appropriate space to put a ride based on a great Disney movie. If there is only a single Disney IP that could fit well into Epcot without feeling forced, it is Coco on that...

I can see this. Apples to oranges is a bit extreme. I'll give you Granny Smith vs McIntosh or Macoun because Red Delicious are terrible and DL and MK are both great haha. If you've tried a Granny Smith, you most certainly have not tried a McIntosh. That said, my point stands that there is...

Space Mountain! Is it the "best" roller coaster? Not by a long shot. But the nostalgia factor from looking forward to going on this ride year after year growing up - plus it being the only one I know of that's in the dark - makes it my "favorite" of all time.

While Rise of the Resistance was a great ride, it felt almost too broken up to call it one single experience. And it doesn't help that 30 seconds after I got into the queue, the ride broke down and took a full 90 minutes for them to reset (I couldn't leave or I'd lose my boarding pass at that...

It's a tough one and I have trouble giving a solid all-around answer. They're very different parks with a lot of different rides. The "same" lands from one park to the other are pretty different with some lands that are completely different (different names, different themes, different rides...

Riverside is one of those all-around relaxing experiences, not just because it's more of a low-energy hotel but because the theming, walkways, buildings, river, flora, and pretty much everything else about it induce serenity. You really can't go wrong with this hotel if you're seeking to kick...

Great report so far! I love the mix of text and photos. Definitely the kind of report I like to be reading during this shut down. Can't wait for more!

At this point due to the shut down, I imagine all ongoing or planned new construction / refurbishment projects will be prioritized based on a calculation of how much time and money they will take to complete combined with how much of a difference they will make in drawing people to help make up...

Definitely Frozen Ever After into New Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom! And bring back Maelstrom while they’re at it!

It’s really hard to pass up the opportunity for a stay walking distance from both Epcot and Hollywood Studios these days. That would be possibly the biggest factor for me when making that decision. You’re going from one of the best locations to one of the worst locations for getting to the parks...
