    First Trip Tips

    My advice is to have a blast. Coronado is my favorite resort for transportation. It is also a less busy resort at the touristy parts of the resort. If there is a convention, then the lobby, dining, and bars can be packed at the front. Nothing wrong with that because there is a bar at the pool...

    Mousekeepers Tip Themselves

    I expect this to get closed quickly. It was more for the funny factor and I wanted it in the other thread that got shutdown.

    Mousekeepers Tip Themselves

    https://www.local10.com/theme-parks/disney-housekeeper-arrested-for-stealing The poor old thread was closed. No need to tip them when they are tipping themselves.

    Pandora forgotten

    From what I have seen of Pandora, it looks amazing. The problem with it is that it will be slammed for months to come. I am sure it is going to be enjoyable but there is just nothing there that is truly innovative. It is very possible the VR for FoW is incredible but it is something that is...

    UAVAILABLE ROOMS

    It's also a convention resort. There are usually many going on in the Fall time frame.

    Disney Security?

    Disney is fairly high on the non-gov't terror list. It has an insane amount of shock power if something did happen. I will be there in the Summer. All bags get checked. No one will be dressed in giant parkas and robes to attach something to the body.

    Favorite Bathrooms? Least Favorite Bathrooms?

    My favorite is the one that has no line when you can't hold it any more. Least favorite is when you gotta go and you are 20 deep in a line knowing if you walk to another you may not make it.

    MK Before Brunch plan

    Very doable with multiple trips on BTMRR. You can do it in order by location or you can go to get the best rides a few times. We are big BTMRR riders. With the ADR at 11:45, that is more lunch than brunch. This gives you time to do a ton of things and hit those rides as well. If it only those...

    Will i be able to have a "pool day" in December ?

    It's FL and the weather is a rollercoaster at this time of year. It could be in the 40s or it could be in the 80s. Last time I was there at this time, you knew who the Floridians were. They were the ones in Mt Everest snow gear when it was 65 degrees. Everyone else was in shorts and flip flops...

    Planning February 2018 trip...

    Almost the entire state of Louisiana is off work. A ton of them go to Disney World this week. It is like Jersey week in November. Add all of the northern schools on Winter Break at this time and all of FL off for Presidents weekend, that weekend at the back of the week is going to be as bad as...

    Planning February 2018 trip...

    If it 4 per room, then DVC would be tough unless 2 are OK on the sofa bed or a blow up mattress. That is a tough weekend. Mardi Gras next year is the week before President's weekend. That week is going to be insane. Daytona 500 is on the 18th, Presidents day on the 19th. I think that last...

    Most treasured Disney Souvenir?

    The picture of my dad and then DD2 trying on different hats. She is giggling her head off. It would be the last time they see each other. He died 9 months later.

    More Classy Behavior of Guests at Disney

    This is why alcohol serving should be monitored by Disney. To buy a drink, you scan your park pass or Magic Band. Limit the number of beers/drinks one can have in a calendar day. I know there will be loopholes. I would rather have the loopholes to minimize it. One, people can use their party's...

    Please critique my general plan!

    Enjoy your trip. We are a rope-drop family, so getting to a park after that is not good for us. So much can be done early to allow time later for the less sought after attractions.

    How Many Days for You? Part 12

    25 days until we check-in at Wyndham Bonnet Creek, activate FPs, and hit DHS for the later afternoon/evening. 24 days until we head out to Jville. Finally found an overnight room at a price that was acceptable for 8 hours.

    Recommendation for smart phones and battery recharging

    I guess so. Sad part is a $100-$150 P&S camera takes better pictures. I just never really use my phone as a primary camera.

    Magic Kingdom Rides at Night

    Any ride that is outdoors. Any ride indoors looks exactly the same.

    Recommendation for smart phones and battery recharging

    I remember Disney without the phones. It was such a Magical place back then. You only had to worry about a courteous person running into you with a stroller and being completely apologetic. Now, they run you over while looking at their phone, blame you, and call a lawyer on the spot to file a...

    AoA for 4 adults (2 couples)

    I would do 2 rooms and if that were too expensive at a Value, then I would consider 2BR suite offsite.
