In 2012 we were there during a Tropical Depression. It wasn't too bad...just a HUGE amount of rain. We had ponchos and went to the parks anyway. They weren't crowded at all, so it was kind of nice. That was the trip my poncho flew off on Space Mountain and shut down the entire ride during extra...

Sounds like it might just be better to wait then. My parents need to pay separately.

We're less than 30 days out! I'm getting ready to make our Be Our Guest Lunch pre-order and realized I have a ton of questions We are on a reservation with my parents, who are not on the Disney Dining Plan, but we are. How will payment work? This is sort of a general question--can a kid's meal...

This trip will be my 5 year old's first trip to Disney. I wouldn't call her completely Princess-obsessed, but she loves dress up and is a Princess fan. I'm wondering whether we should bring some of her costumes to dress in? It's May, so it will be on the hotter side, but we could easily shove...

Yes, I plan on doing that. I just find it odd that only Martinique is an option--I've seen screenshots with all the villages listed. I did call and confirm that most of the villages are an option with a water view room. They didn't know why the website limited it.

I'm trying to put a room request on our room at Caribbean Beach--I'm hoping for something close to the main pool. The level we booked (only type available at the time) was water view. From what I've gathered, our best bets are to request Aruba 51 or Jamaica 44 or 45. However, when I try to...

Too bad. My kids have been watching ours for a year. The can recite it!

We are doing it for the first time on this trip. Before I changed our hotels to a split stay, I thought the whole week might have been a little much, but we were going to enjoy it! I would have a hard time ordering what I really wanted if we were paying directly out of pocket. My husband and I...

No, we aren't. I'm hoping to get a later reservation for Sanaa, but we will just have to see what comes up. I'm thinking we will ditch the park earlier than 1:30 and try and get rest time in, then have dinner, do a few things and maybe Rivers of Light if we happen to be holding out til that...

Me! Me! Me! I just changed our entire hotel situation around. I'm not touching which days we do which parks, though. I know getting Asherkus, Ohana, and Be Our Guest on different days would be too difficult. I have swapped out other dining reservations. Planning it is half the fun! It meets...

Oh and Caribbean Beach resort is offering $75/night gift card during your stay. We are taking advantage of that to pay for food on our trip

Have you thought about the Swan/Dolphin at all? We stayed there in 2012 and I was pleasantly surprised. It is REALLY convenient to Epcot & Disney Studios and you get most of the perks of a Disney Hotel. Their pool is very nice too. I think our next trip is going to be a split stay there and a...

I ditched Tusker House and got us a 5:30ish reservation at Sanaa instead. I had forgotten Animal Kingdom Lodge is so close. I think we are going to try and go back to the hotel and rest. It's so hit or miss as to whether or not my kids actually will, though. Hopefully!

We will be going to Animal Kingdom for this first time during this trip. We have 5, 3, and 18 month old kids, so burning out is a concern. We are staying at Wilderness Lodge. We have fastpass reservations going until about 1:15 pm. We did book a Rivers of Light dining package, but the...

We have one in early May, but they were booking up quickly

Our Disney vacation planner did it for us and we kept all Fastpasses and ADR. I'm sure I could have figured it out, but she was willing to sit on the phone for us, so I let her :) We are now staying in a Deluxe Studio at the Boulder Ridge Villas at Wilderness Lodge Sun-Wed and Caribbean Beach...

Nah, the bar isn't a big deal. It's more the disappointment of realizing that instead of the best set up at French Quarter we will have a "meh" one at Riverside. I like those resorts well enough, but It was the moderation in price and extreme convenience that was going to make it a good fit for...

I've been planning this trip for over a year and I cannot believe I've missed this in the countless hours I've spent researching things! We are booked for a week the first week of May. I thought we were staying at the Port Orleans French Quarter in a pool view room. We are actually staying at...

I had read in the past if your child wants to order an adult meal at a counter service restaurant, there was no issue as quick service credits were not distinguished between adult and child meals like table service credits. Given there have been a few changes to the 2017 dining plans, is this...

Funny you say that--I actually have a reservation there, but I'm about to cancel it in favor of Tusker House the next day--used up all our table service credits. Oh well! The problem is I cant pick any other one I'm willing to give up and after dropping that much $$ on a dining plan, we aren't...
