    Lion King or Nemo show at AK? Which is better

    I am in the minority in that I like Nemo better. I like that it tells the story. I love the original song. It is unique in that the actors sing, talk, and operate the puppets at the same time (heck, I have trouble talking and chewing gum at the same time). Lion King is great too, though I...

    November weather

    Yes it is warm enough to wear shorts but the weather can get cold in the evening. Plus it depends on where you live, what you are use to. I am from PA and I have seen people at WDW in winter coats, gloves, and hats while I am wearing shorts and a sweatshirt.

    PPO ADR- Is this still a thing?

    Garden Grill for breakfast is worth it when Epcot has a 9 am opening. Seating starts at 8 am. Past two years we got an 8 am reservation and there were like 3-4 families there at the time. They bring the food to you almost immediately, served family style. Then when you finished, you go...

    Epcot Hotels

    My family of 5 have stayed at BC twice, YC three times, and Boardwalk twice. We all love YC the most (though the Epcot resorts are the best IMO). With YC, we like the rooms better, it seems a little quieter compared to the others. Also first pick up by the bus and first drop off by the bus...

    Candlelight Processional

    If you want to guarantee a spot for CP, you should book a CP dining reservation. Typically if you book a breakfast reservation, you will get the earliest show. If you book a dinner reservation, you will get the later show. I attended CP last year, my travel agent booked it for me so I am not...

    Beach resort vs. Yacht club

    Keep in mind if you rent a car, you will be charged for parking the car at your resort, I believe it is $23ish per day. To me the busses are a no brainer. The Yacht is the first pick up then the Beach which their pick up area is literally less than 2 minutes away. Then you are off to MK, AK...

    Beach resort vs. Yacht club

    We have stayed at both resorts though not at club level. We prefer Yacht over Beach though I don't think you can go wrong with either. The resorts are connected so you can easily walk back and forth. One advantage Yacht has over Beach is Yacht is the first stop for the busses so in the mornng...

    Beach Club!

    Congrats, excellent choice! The Epcot resorts especially Yacht and Beach are the best. The pool is great so be sure to enjoy it. Walking to Epcot is so nice and easy. You are the second stop from Hollywood Studios going by boat. Be sure to enjoy the restaurants - Cape May Cafe (breakfast...

    Mobile Ordering

    You can order way ahead of time if you wish. If I recall once you place your order, it is good for 3-4 hours before it will expire. Once you get to the restaurant, you push the "I'm here" button and that is when they prepare your order. I typically tell them I'm here when I am 1-2 minutes...

    Mobile Ordering

    It works great. I am shocked how many people don't use it. We were there in Dec with some lines 10-12 people deep and only 1-2 people waiting for mobile ordering. We had the dining plan during are trip. We did all of our quick service meals through mobile ordering.

    Mickey's Very Merry . . .

    We did the MVMCP 5-6 years ago and were disappointed. It was disorganized, cast members giving wrong locations for character meets. The biggest draw is the character meets, parade, and fireworks so for what you have said, it wouldn't be worth it for you. I was more impressed with the...

    Jungle Cruise High Wait Times

    We just got back today from visiting The World. Saw Jingle Cruise posted 30 min wait for stand by this past Tuesday, mid afternoon. We got in line and literally walked right on. Had a very funny boat captain as well.

    Dining at Ale & Compass (Yacht Club)

    We ate there this week for dinner as part of the Candlelight Processional dining package. It was very good! Appetizers could be entrees in terms of size. My wife had the flatbread, I had the shrimp, both very good. Entree wise we both had the steak which was delicious. The chocolate cake...

    Do all the Characters sign autographs at all Character meals?

    We have done all of these in the past except Bon Voyage. The characters all sign. Last year we did Park We have done all of them in the past except Bon Voyage and they all signed autographs. We did Crystal Palace, Park Fare, and Garden Grille last year, all characters signed.

    Do all the Characters sign autographs at all Character meals?

    Yes all the characters do sign at meals. I can't think of any off the top of my head that don't sign. If you list which character meals you are doing, I can let you know for sure.

    Adding three people to a lunch reservation

    One year my parents surprised us at Magic Kingdom. We had reservations at Chef Mickey's that evening. Tried calling to add them on to our reservation but were unsuccessful. When we checked in, I asked if they could be added and they said no problem.

    Ok tell me about the T-Rex Place

    I would recommend against T-Rex especially without children. We ate there the past two years and my three children ages 12, 12, and 11 don't want to go back. It is loud and busy, lots of young kids. Food was ok.

    Weather in early November

    My family and I have gone the week prior to Thanksgiving the past three years. We wore shorts throughout the day and maybe a sweatshirt at night at most. We are from Pennsylvania. Granted you will see people not use to colder weather wearing gloves, scarves, and winter hats early in the...
