I agree with the last two opinions about SSR. Though I've never stayed at Coronado, it has never appealed to me. My extended family is a DVC member, with OKW being their home resort, so we've stayed there several times. SSR never really had a draw over OKW for us, but we ended up staying at...

On our last trip (October 2015), one member of our group used a wheelchair just as you are describing. She used it to get around the entire property, but was able to transfer out of it into buses, boats, and ride vehicles. What we did was we just waited in the regular bus lines. At the parks...

I understand that (and get why) the new track doesn't have an accessible car. But what if the guest can transfer? For example, one of my family members uses a wheelchair to get around the parks because she can only walk short distances. So at TSMM, we're always sent to the accessible line...

Does anyone know if they're still sending all wheelchairs and ECVs to the old track? I'm thinking that if a guest can transfer to the ride vehicle, there is no longer a need to send them to the accessible vehicle line.

Don't forget about Ghirardelli. Sundaes are at least $9.45, with shakes starting at $6.50 for a small. Ample Hills seems comparable, if not a higher-quality product. http://www.wdwmagic.com/dining/ghirardelli-soda-fountain-and-chocolate-shop/menus.htm

I don't want to burst your bubble, but I'd keep my expectations about the beignets in check. The past two times I've ordered them (2014 and 2015), they were ok, but nowhere near as good as they used to be. They seemed a little heavier than in past years.

1. Dole Whip (MK) 2. Funnel Cake (MK and Epcot/American Adventure) 3. Apple Tart (Epcot/France) 4. Mickey Soft Pretzels 5. Kakigori - Melon flavor (Epcot/Japan) 6. Any of the make-your-own treats from Goofy's Candy Co. (DS)

I don't consider these prices expensive at all, at least all things considered. This is a place to get higher-quality burgers in a tourist destination. A local chain that focuses on locally-sourced fresh ingredients opened up a location in my town several months ago. It's in the middle of a...

Nope. Still against the law to have expiration dates and service fees in both FL and CA.

In addition to a production cost, there is probably also some costs associated to the handling and processing of them. With gift cards, once they're produced, there's no cost associated them. They just sit in a display until purchased and activated, and then everything else is handled...

Wow. That is really similar to the new plaza gardens. Does this mean a Ratatouille-themed area is coming soon? ;)

It looks like instead of the toll booths being moved, the ramp to continue north to the resorts will begin before the booth, on the left side of the roadway.

Goof pretty much nailed it with the above post, but I just wanted to add a little about the rooms. I highly recommend you review the room layout maps that are out there. I've only stayed in a 2BR at SSR (I've also been inside a Studio there), and have stayed in Studios, 2BR, and GV in OKW...

The Shop Disney Parks app has a 17" Talking Bruce Plush listed for $21.95. You can order it through the app and have it shipped home (for a fee), or wait and get it in WDW. (Currently, multiple locations across the property have it showing as in stock.)

Just to add one more option to what @EOD K9 said, there are outside vendors that you can book ahead of time. The one my family used is a "partner" vendor, and left a wheelchair with bell services on our check-in day. It was ours to use for the entire week, and we just had to leave it with bell...

Is this just fantasy?

I know that our insiders have said that the changes in concept art for Slinky are due to budget cuts. And I don't doubt that at all. But could the elimination of the trenches be partly caused by the ground itself? I know very little about this sort of thing, but if the water table is too high...

I'm truly not calling anyone out, so please don't take it that way, but how much of this is psychological? If you go to WDW thinking that there are cuts everywhere and the quality has been diminished, odds are, you'll leave thinking that was the actual experience. It's things that we've never...

I just got an email from The Disney Store advertising their latest limited release t-shirt. I'll give you two guesses as to what it features, and the first one doesn't count....... [Obligatory space to give you time to change your answer of 'Catastrophe Canyon'.] Yup. It's the Earffel Tower...

When I was there in October, we stayed in Congress Park, Building 12 I believe. The walk to DTD/DS was no more than 5-10 minutes along the water and over the new bridge/dock. Probably a bit closer to 10 minutes if you're in one of the CP buildings closer to the middle of the resort. I haven't...
