    Chances of 'Ohana reservation?

    I set up a Dining Buddy alert for Ohana for late August. I didn't book the trip until a couple weeks ago and there was no availability when I was first checking. I bought the alert and got the ADR I wanted within 12 hours. I'm still getting alerts at least every other day, and just yesterday...

    Upgrading UT tickets

    Thanks! I was hoping you'd chime in, @Rob562 . I'm staying onsite and I'll have MBs. The ticket is linked to MDE already. That's what I was wondering about--whether the MB alone would be fine to bring to Guest Relations for the upgrade. The e-ticket option has to be fairly new with...

    Upgrading UT tickets

    Hi everyone! I purchased park tickets from Undercover Tourist for my trip next month. I used the e-ticket option, so I didn't (and won't) get actual ticket cards. I linked the tickets to MDE, no problems there. I think I'd like to upgrade my ticket to an AP once I get to WDW, so I'm...

    To split stay or not to split stay...

    For me, the appeal of staying at a monorail resort isn't about the ease of hopping a monorail. It's about staying near the MK and seeing everything spread out around the lake and feeling like I'm right in the middle of the magic. So I would go for the split stay! I looooove deluxes but on my...

    How do you display your pins?

    I loop ribbon around the backings and decorate a mini tree with them at Christmas time. I haven't found a way I really love to display them year-round.

    Sad News: Three-year-old drowns at Art of Animation Pool

    I agree with @Polydweller -- there's some major reaching going on here. The fact that the child "became separated from the parents" doesn't necessarily mean that he got all that far away from them, or that they were outside the pool fence and he was inside. One way or the other, I doubt that...

    Sad News: Three-year-old drowns at Art of Animation Pool

    For some people, automatically blaming the parents is like a security blanket. Instead of accepting and admitting that accidents happen and they can never keep their child 100% safe, they block out those terrifying thoughts with "This would never happen to my child because I would never [blah...

    Sad News: Three-year-old drowns at Art of Animation Pool

    All the pools at AoA are gated and have MB readers, but the laundry rooms are inside the pool areas, and you can get in any time of day or night if you want to. The gates aren't locked for good once the pool closes. Regardless, this happened around 7 pm (according to a poster on another forum...

    Can you add days to tix before arrival?

    Thanks for this. Do you think I can still add a day on the phone even if I bought the tickets from Undercover Tourist? Maybe that's where I got messed up last year. My current tickets are linked to MDE already.

    Can you add days to tix before arrival?

    I don't mean to threadjack, but is this a new thing? I tried to add a day before my trip last August and was told by WDW and by some friends here on the forums that I had to wait until I got to a park. I hope it has changed and I can just call--I'd love to do it before my trip next month.

    The yacht club lobby air freshener

    I bought some good essential oil in Green Clover & Aloe scent and voila, my house smells like Y&BC whenever I want it to. I put it in reed diffusers, in an oil warmer, dab it on lightbulbs, whatever. It's perfect. I've seen people swear that GF and CR also use the Green Clover and Aloe scent...

    Sad News: Three-year-old drowns at Art of Animation Pool

    The Big Blue Pool keeps so many lifeguards on duty, and they are vigilant--they stalk that pool. In May, I was sitting next to a couple who were bickering because the father counted 10 lifeguards, but the mother was still insisting that he accompany their young child into the pool. He thought...

    Art of Animation advice PLEASE!!

    Jaklgreen is right--kids that young don't really care where they stay, because they're in Disney World and they're really good at finding the magic in everything. I get wanting to stay at AoA while your kids are young enough to appreciate the theming--that's why I've stayed there, and I really...

    An abandoned WDW

    These pictures make my skin crawl. Impressive and so spooky.

    Cape May Cafe Clambake?

    Crab legs are all you can eat every night -- I believe steamed clams and mussels are nightly, too, but I don't eat them so I'm not 100% on that. There's always a fish dish, paella, and clam chowder. Depending what night of the week it is, there's fried shrimp, calamari, or clam strips. I'm...

    Hess Express Gas Stations to be rebranded as Speedway

    I wish the good people of Speedway would put a Dunkin Donuts iced coffee machine in the store by the Boardwalk. The MK store has it but I don't get there often enough.

    Beach or Yacht Club

    Sorry, @DaGoof00 , I forgot to respond to your original post when I posted above :D. All things being equal, I'd stay at YC because it's my favorite place on Earth, but BC wins hands-down for a trip this fall. The new rooms and hallways are gorgeous. Like I said above, the current YC rooms...

    Beach or Yacht Club

    The work at YC will be started as soon as BC is complete. At BC they started from the top down, 5th floor (club level) first, and I've heard they'll do the same at YC. BC CL renovations took 2 months, mid-October to mid-December. They're still renovating the 2nd floor now at BC, putting YC on...

    The ins and outs of AOA

    I absolutely LOVE walking around WDW, but I'm the family's "runner"--when somebody needs something from the food court or the front desk or all the way out in the darned car, I'm the one to go get it. I took a million walks from the far end of the Mater building to LoF to fill mugs last May and...
