So we did the Welcome Show on Monday the 19th. Got to the MK at about 8:40 and the entire area between the turnstiles and train station was packed solid. We got through the turnstiles and immediately stopped. The people behind us did not get through the turnstiles. Watched the show, which...

The best that I can explain it, was it was crowded, but very manageable. We went last year in early February and this time it was more crowded, but not nearly as bad as summer. The walkways in MK were packed with people, but we planned well and managed to get on everything. Got there both...

Went on with a FP on Tuesday at 11:15 am. It was about a 10 minute wait in the little hallway, then once we were in the room with the girls, it was about another 10 minutes.

Was at AK yesterday and we arrived for the 3:00 show (with no FP) at 2:59 and walked right in. There were still plenty of seats in the back rows (the benches without backs). I would not spend a FP on this, I would just show up and go.

I was 18 in 1991 and i can remember going 2-3 times a year with my parents and staying at either the Poly or GF because of how cheap they were. Now as an adult, I can only dream about staying at a deluxe.

I too rode on 5/19. The mist screen was working great! The effect worked so good. And on my ride, both mermaid effects also worked... the bubbles and projections. Lady chasing pirate was frozen for me too. Still hate the Jack Sparrow ending though. I really miss the two guys tied up in the...

So I just returned from four days at WDW and wanted to share my random thoughts and observations from while I was there. BTW, I have been going regularly to WDW since I was four (1975) and currently my family and I go about twice a year since we only live 3 hours away. MM+/FP+: I must say...

We will also be there for my daughter's 6th birthday next week, and although there will be no dinner at the Castle, i did manage to score (no idea how) FP's for Anna and Elsa on her actual birthday. This happened last week while I was randomly checking the fast passes... the gods were smiling...

Thanks for the info Weather_Lady... that is exactly our plan as well... straight to Splash Mountain. So not sure if I should take the Liberty Square route (by Sleepy Hollow) or the Adventureland route (by the Treehouse). Was thinking the Adventureland route, then cutting over to Frontierland...

Oh, I see. I thought that main street opened around 8:30ish and that you could walk down to the hub for rope drop. At least that's how it was years ago... I can remember when I was young, walking all the way to the end of main street and the rope was at the very end. Is the rope now closer to...

So we are leaving for WDW on Sunday and will be at the MK on Monday and Tuesday. In the gazillion times that I've been to the park, I have never seen the Welcome Show, but we plan on seeing it both mornings. A few questions... What actually happens in the Welcome Show? I'm guessing that it...

I understand!!! I too have been stalking the fast passes sometimes 4-5 times a day, also for my daughter's birthday trip coming up in two weeks. I figured that there was absolutely zero chance of getting one for while we are there. But just this morning it was available and I managed to...

You are exactly right!!! This has been one of my family's favorites since the 70's and I could not imagine a trip to the MK without going on it. We are there May 18-21 so I will just make it!

Have not watched the video because I want to be as surprised as possible... will be there May 18-21 so hopefully it's open by then!

We are pretty picky pizza eaters and I must say that my whole family really enjoyed the pie that we got at the POFQ food court... did not think that it was going to really be good, but it was!

Chalk me up as another one that does not tip housekeeping at any hotel. As one earlier poster said, cleaning my room each day is INCLUDED in the price that I pay to rent my room for the day. And I do tip all other service industry workers very well. Although, I could use my own housekeeping...

That is my biggest fear as well...

This makes me furiously mad! That could have been a really cool themed store...

Last year before my daughter owned the Little Mermaid movie DVD we rented it from our local library and it was a really old version of the DVD, possibly from the late 90's, before either ride was built. One of the extras on the DVD was a very in-depth ride simulator of the originally designed...

Hopefully is right. Really do like the ride, but was also very dissapointed with many things, mainly the terrible lighting in the big Under The Sea room. Seeing exposed acoustical ceiling tiles and ductwork is just plain unacceptable.
