    50th statues

    When I was there last year, I didn't even notice most of them. They are a reminder of the extremely underwhelming 50th Anniversary celebration.

    Gideons Bakehouse??

    It is unadvertised, but they actually open before the rest of DS. As far as I know though, the only way to get in is to drive and park in the garage (only one is open that early.) There are no buses and you cannot walk in the entrance near Saratoga Springs. I got there a little before the posted...

    Epcot help

    Whether or not you get Lightning Lane or make dining reservations, please bring your patience and expect lines for everything! You are going at a very busy time. My suggestion would be to get to the park at least 30 minutes before opening. During the first hour or so, you can usually either hit...

    If Disney has a "Mount Rushmore" who is on it?

    I vote for Eisner. His early years revolutionized the company no matter how the later ones turned out. The last spot is tougher but I think Ub Iwerks deserves a spot. Without him almost singlehandedly animating the early cartoons, there would be no company.

    Beach Club or Yacht Club for upcoming trip!

    Is it possible you are confusing the Yacht Club with the Grand Floridian? The Yacht Club is right next to the Beach Club, shares a pool and is not on the Monorail line (the Grand Floridian is), Either way, if you were not impressed by it, I would go with the other option. The Beach Club, would...

    EPCOT Journey of Water featuring Moana coming to Epcot

    Any thoughts on how/if these structures will be camouflaged? They sit pretty close to walkways and aren't "backstage".

    Recommendation for quiet onsite resort room...but not too far from things?

    At the CBR, Trinidad is furthest from the center of the resort and therefore might be a little less hectic than the other areas. It has it's own quiet pool and snack bar, but it is a bit of a hike to the Skyliner and other amenities.

    Parking at Epcot and going to Magic Kingdom as first park (Park Hopper Pass)

    This is correct. You park at Epcot, go through security, take the monorail to the TTC and then switch to the MK monorail. More fun (and cheaper) than Uber, and probably about the same amount of time to do so. The only issue you might have is with different park opening times. If Epcot security...

    Best indoor roller coaster in Orlando?

    I love Gringott's, but is it considered a coaster? I would put it in a separate Thrill Ride category with things like Dinosaur.

    Splash Mnt Animatronic Mystery

    I would be surprised if they DIDN'T re-use most/all of the animatronics. They will be re-skinned and hopefully repaired and updated, but why start from scratch?

    BOG MVMCP dinner?

    I would keep the pre-party reservation. I've been to two parties, and each time I ate a big meal pre-party so I could take full advantage of the party offerings.

    Saratoga springs first time there

    They are not considered preferred, but the Grandstand buildings 8500-8800 are very close to the main pool, restaurants, and the boat DS. They also have a pool and bus stop right outside their doors. We found it the perfect location.

    What Do You Call The MK Castle?

    Was removing all the apostrophes a cost-saving measure?

    What music from the parks/movies, etc. do you love playing at home ???

    Is the most recent official WDW album from 2013 or was there another one after that? The one from 2013 is available as an MP3 on Amazon and iTunes.

    After Hours ever again?

    We did AK after hours in 2019 and loved it. Got to ride FoP 3x in a row with no waits! Try doing that during regular hours. I was looking forward to trying it at MK when everything stopped. I hope to get the chance someday. I might also try booking one night in a deluxe resort to use those extra...
