    Trip Report 28 Going on 8...A Birthday Trip!

    Your pictures are so beautiful! I always struggle to get nice fireworks shots. What settings do you use? My Canon Rebel is on the older side (purchased around 2009/2010). And I love your dad's Mr. Met hat! LGM!

    Flying Fish or Le Cellier

    I had the same choice to make and I chose Flying Fish pretty easily. With the recent rave reviews for their re-opening and the new additions of AbracadaBAR and Ample Hills to the Boardwalk, I really don't need anything else

    How scrictly is the "before 8am departure" rule enforced regarding Baggage Check-in?

    I was in the same boat during my last visit. It's easy to feel spoiled when you are able to use DME bag check but chances are if you're flying that early anyway, you're not looking at much of a wait at the airport bag check, if any wait at all. The worst part is getting to the lobby at 4 in the...

    Adding No Expiration

    Same! It's such a bummer. I only go once a year, if that, so an annual pass has never made sense for me. I bought a 10-day park hopper No exp through AAA and got three different trips out of it over the course of three years. Using my last two days in December then it's time to start budgeting...

    Man caught trying to enter Magic Kingdom with gun

    I'm even more impressed that security, instead of taking his credentials and allowing him to pass- which may have been the less awkward thing for them personally (or whatever they would have done if his creds were cleared - not sure if even off duty cops are allowed to carry weapons and multiple...

    Is the Dining Plan Worth It Anymore?

    GIRL! I will take Philly winter over this Philly summer. My poor little house that I rent does not have central A/C and I'm straight up dying with these jacked window A/C units. I work from home so PECO is absolutely having their way with me.

    DAK Avatar construction aerial updates

    It continues to blow my mind to find out just how many people on this board are from this area! I moved from Long Island to Burlington County to Port Richmond (Philly in November) and had my first cheesesteak at Tony Lukes in South Philly like a week ago. I guess this is my initiation? I can't...

    Anyone seen room discounts for after Nov 5th? :)

    For my dates, 12/1-12/5, the least expensive option right now is $170+ for Caribbean Beach. Not sure if it's worth the upgrade from AoA right now as it would be a couple hundred dollars more. I've never stayed in a Moderate, only the values, and especially since my stay is so short, I don't...

    Bringing Disney Magic home to the wife?

    although not something you can buy in the parks (to my knowledge, at least), there are various crafters with online stores that sell Disney Park scents! I have an embarrassing amount, honestly. My favorites are the Polynesian and Main Street Confectionary. You can check out Walter and Rosie...

    Anyone seen room discounts for after Nov 5th? :)

    Yeah, that's what the CM told me over the phone. She says it happens often and to check back daily to see if there are any openings. If only there was a Touring Plans Reservation Finder tool for that ;)

    November or December 2016?

    I'd shoot for the November dates. I have a trip booked for the first weekend of December and it's basically booked solid, especially now that the Holiday vacation offers have been released so I'm not sure what will be available for your December dates. November should also be a little bit more...

    Anyone seen room discounts for after Nov 5th? :)

    I agree on the self-defeating mindset. I'm not one to threaten to cancel if I don't get my ideal outcome. After a short phone call to the Reservations hotline, I'm staying put at AoA. No availability at any other value (besides AoA family suites) for my dates, 12/1-12/5. Bummed? Sure. Was hoping...

    Anyone seen room discounts for after Nov 5th? :)

    Not sure if you've ever used this strategy before when booking rooms at WDW, but I've been pretty successful about 4-5 other times in the past. I usually go during September-November when there's more availability though. I book room only and then apply a discount when they're made available by...

    Anyone seen room discounts for after Nov 5th? :)

    Of course - no discounts for the Little Mermaid Room. I may end up just changing my reservation to an available All Star

    Drinking and Snacking around Epcot

    I'm bookmarking this in my internal memory because I don't intend on booking an ADR for my afternoon-evening in Epcot, I only intend on snacking around the World :)

    Annual Pass

    All that I've read, i'm not an AP holder, suggests that you purchase a voucher and then you need to get it activated at guest relations.

    Annual Pass

    It begins the day you purchased the AP. If you prefer to wait, you can purchase a MYW ticket and upgrade it to an AP at Guest Relations

    Resort Christmas Decorations

    oooh! fun! I might have to splurge on Memory Maker if there are a bunch of cool Photo Pass locations. Hello Christmas Card! Sad to hear about Poly. I would definitely expect some cool decorations from them. Maybe the refurb had something to do with it? Wishful thinking? I'll definitely...

    Resort Christmas Decorations

    Hey guys, I'll be staying in WDW from 12/1-12/5 (first time experiencing Christmastime in Disney) and I'm hoping to do a non-parks day and fill a morning with resort looping to check out the Christmas decorations. Should all of the decorations at those hotels be up with the Gingerbread Houses in...
