We were really aggravated during our trip earlier this month. Our resort started the test during our trip, so we did not use the bands. Lines for Pirates & HM were 35+ minutes all week. I asked the CM at Pirates how I could get a FP for Pirates without MB and she said "you can't. You can go...
If you go to the runDisney site, there are Jeff Galloway training plans right in there. If you're doing a specific Disney race, it even tells you which day each run should be on. Or you can just google different training plans for whatever length you are moving up to and choose which one suits...
I love DVC and it works for our family, but I would not buy in based on the availability of RCI trades. Up until a few years ago, we were able to trade with a different company (Interval International). You never know if/when DVC will no longer have a partnership with RCI. It is not a...
We've been booked for a while to go Jan 12-19. It's our first time, but we go to WDW at least once a year. We live in NY so it costs about twice as much to go to CA as FL. Haunted Mansion is also closed for us until the 17th. We're contemplating switching to WDW but I'm trying to stay...
Sanaa is incredible. The food is unique, the restaurant is beautiful and you have stunning views of the animals.
I haven't eaten at Shutters. Kona was good, but we had a bad experience a few years ago and haven't been back. Server issue, not a food issue.
Like PP said, don't miss Sanaa!
Also, they're currently testing a continental breakfast at Sanaa, featuring pastries, coffee, tea, juice, cereal, etc. Nothing special, but an alternative to heading to the Mara.
Kidani has it's own check-in and concierge. If you're taking DME, they will drop you off there.
Kidani also has it's own fitness center (Survival of the Fittest) located near the pool and Maji bar.
It's a quick walk to Jambo, about 5-8 minutes. It can be HOT though because most of it's...
We did the St. Thomas Skyride on a Carnival cruise. It is a MUST do! The views are incredible. We did it on our own. Walked to it from the port, paid and went up. You can spend as much time as you want up there.
We did Magen's Bay that same day (gorgeous) and a catamaran cruise w/snorkel...
Trash & towel would be on the fourth day, full cleaning is on day 8. Since you're checking out on the fourth day, you won't see Mousekeeping. We usually leave a tip, though.
With airfare skyrocketing, I'd like to see a sailing from NY! I haven't heard any rumors, but I'd like to see a southern Caribbean itinerary, something with Belize & Costa Rica maybe. Perhaps someday. I did see an article somewhere claiming that DCL had a tentative port booking in Hawaii. I...
You'll have 2 adults in the master bedroom (king bed), 2 adults in the other bedroom (two queens), the living room has a pull-out queen-sized sleeper sofa AND a sleeper chair that you can throw the kids on and extra adult on, or put them in the second bedroom. Theoretically, there's enough room...
I wouldn't be surprised if they are tweaking it, like maybe doing a couple of different levels (like the old silver, gold, platinum) but the plan is very popular (even when it's not free).
