    How is the opening of Galaxy's Edge affecting your plans?

    My trip is 8/20 - 8/29. So it's no affecting anything, unless there's a soft opening we get pulled into. Then we just have more fun.

    News Tower of Terror to operate at reduced capacity due to an extended refurbishment

    Hopefully they'll change out the tv screens in the staging room. They need OLED's in there to keep it dark when they're not displaying. The backlit LEDs give off too much light.

    Do they need to bring Video Games back into Epcot?

    The mechanism is an antique that needed a lot of work on it. I'm building a cabinet around it and trying to restore everything to how it originally was.

    Do they need to bring Video Games back into Epcot?

    A pool hall near me had a couple pins and now it's become a good part of their core business. They've got an entire wall now and host plenty of pinball themed events and tournaments. Pinball has certainly made a comeback in the last few years.

    Do they need to bring Video Games back into Epcot?

    Four person pacman is amazing. You'd think, what could they possibly do with pacman to make it even more fun. Well, it's just about a perfect game.

    Now I'm forced to build my own. It's going to take a while.

    Do they need to bring Video Games back into Epcot?

    I'd like it if the pinball machines were back in Space Mountain. Or honestly if the Penny Arcade returned, that would be the best option.

    Swan and Dolphin: Your thoughts and opinions

    It may be a step up, but not much. Certainly not for $300/ night. The location is nice though. I did just see that the Swan does have queen beds whereas the Dolphin has doubles to allow room for a roll away. For slightly more, you can rent DVC points and stay at the boardwalk if the location...

    Swan and Dolphin: Your thoughts and opinions

    It was the Picabu. The receipt literally said Swan and Dolphin Fee. This? This is the entire bathroom. There was no other sink or area, everything that you see here is it. How can you love this? To close the door you have to go on either side of the toilet or into the tub. To open the...

    Swan and Dolphin: Your thoughts and opinions

    I bought a breakfast sandwich, which was $11. Total came out to 13 something. I looked at the receipt and there was a line added, "Swan/Dolphin fee....$2". That just blew my mind. The bathroom was a sink that was open to the room. 3' wide max. To the right was a door to the toilet/shower...

    Swan and Dolphin: Your thoughts and opinions

    I stayed at the Dolphin last august. I'd consider it the worst hotel experience on Disney property. We did a split stay. 3 nights at the Dolphin and then 5 at the Polynesian. Our rate with the educator's discount was 192/night. We're a family of 5 and they say that the Dolphin handles 5 in...

    What's your experience renting DVC points?

    Renting points for a studio at PVB cost us $38 more per night than a room at the Dolphin. We mainly did it to confirm that we wanted to buy into DVC at the polynesian. We've never changed a plan once we booked. My wife's a teacher, so we already have no flexibility outside of what part of the...

    Does anyone else forget the negatives?

    To surprise them with our trip a couple years ago, we had a mysterious Gravity Falls-esque letter sent to the house. It led to other pieces in the yard. When all was said and done, there was some UV ink on it that had directions to fold it into a hat, which exposed a map. The map led to the...

    Does anyone else forget the negatives?

    Wow. I don't know if i could handle the three day method. I do 928 miles on day one from Buffalo to Savannah and then 280 miles from Savannah to WDW on day two. I'm refreshed and ready to go that second morning after I crash in savannah at about 9pm on the first night.
