    Moronic People (and the stupid things they do) Pics

    These people went to the Top of the World, bringing with them pizza from a local shop, bottles of soda from Hess, and a large black bag. Keep in mind, this is a bar/lounge and no one is supposed to bring food in. After they finished eating, they went out to the observation deck and set up a...

    Update to Disney's PhotoPass site adds copy protection watermarks over images

    You can see through the watermark, though. If someone blinked when the picture was taken, for example, you should be able to see if their eyes were closed.

    Did I Really Just See That.....in Disney World?????

    During that same trip, my family ate at Pecos Bill's. My son wanted a turkey leg, so he brought that with him while the rest of us ordered from the restaurant. As we walked in the seating area, a CM stopped us and told my son he couldn't sit there because he didn't buy his food from Pecos...

    Update to Disney's PhotoPass site adds copy protection watermarks over images

    I've always been surprised that CMs are allowed to use guests' cameras. What would happen if the CM accidentally dropped the camera? As for the quality issue, I often get better pictures with CMs using my camera than with the PhotoPass photos taken with Disney-issued gear.

    Update to Disney's PhotoPass site adds copy protection watermarks over images

    I've never purchased MemoryMaker due to the price, but last year I bought an Attractions+ pass for approximately $55. You can load an unlimited number of ride pics on the pass for the length of your visit. There were six people in my group and I had around 100 photos on the pass. I was able to...

    This time I'm determined to go on more rides... Advice please!

    Both my son and I suffer from motion sickness, but neither of us have had any issues with RnRC -- if we ride it once. One time, there was a short wait for the ride, so I did it twice, back-to-back. I was a little bit queasy after the second time.

    Did I Really Just See That.....in Disney World?????

    My family and I went to the Top of the World last summer to have some appetizers and drinks while waiting for the Independence Day fireworks that run on July 3. We went a bit early, so it wasn't too crowded. I watched in amazement as a family sat down at a table with pizzas from a local pizza...

    Need ideas for Hollywood Studios charms

    Thanks for the suggestions! The star would be the easiest to find, but I also like the paintbrush and palette. Maybe I can use both. :)

    4th July 2015 Advice and enquiry!

    I love the Fourth of July fireworks. There is no separate ticket. They usually start at 9 p.m., an hour earlier than when Wishes starts. Fireworks are shot both behind MK and from a little island in the Seven Seas Lagoon, plus there are perimeter fireworks.

    Need ideas for Hollywood Studios charms

    I'm working on a jewelry project that requires Disney park-inspired charms. I'm not really looking for actual Disney charms, due to cost, but something that's close. I had no trouble finding antique brass charms of a castle, tree of life, and a globe. However, I can't think of anything similar...

    Kali River Rapids in deplorable condition

    Every time I go on this ride, I get absolutely soaked. I don't have to be in a seat that ends up at the bottom of the big drop, either. Just once, I'd love to go on it and not have to wring out my shirt and shorts after exiting the ride.

    Walt Disney World Monorail system to operate on revised schedule from September 1

    What people want is for Disney to provide reliable, alternate transportation. The buses to MK and Epcot were not reliable during my trip and occasionally non-existent. No guest should have to wait up to an hour to go from the resort to any park.

    Walt Disney World Monorail system to operate on revised schedule from September 1

    What I find interesting is that most, if not all, of the people who are saying we should stop complaining and suck it up have not had a vacation impacted by the schedule change. My expensive vacation at a monorail resort was most definitely affected every single morning we went to MK and Epcot...

    Animal Kingdom tidbits

    I love the walking trails. It's much easier to get great pictures of the animals than on the safari. I took some amazing photos during my last trip, especially of the tigers.

    Walt Disney World Monorail system to operate on revised schedule from September 1

    You are correct. The buses didn't show up. We weren't the only people being affected. Another family had been waiting longer than us and went to the concierge right after we did. I don't know what the CMs did for them. There were a lot of angry people at the bus stop. I understand the...

    Walt Disney World Monorail system to operate on revised schedule from September 1

    We go every year in July. I'm well aware how busy it is. It's still unacceptable that transportation was disorganized and, at times, non-existent.

    Walt Disney World Monorail system to operate on revised schedule from September 1

    This started at the end of June. September might be a slower time, but the summer isn't.

    Walt Disney World Monorail system to operate on revised schedule from September 1

    They did a poor job of handling the park opening transportation when we were there in early July. We waited 50 minutes one morning for a Magic Kingdom bus that never showed up, despite repeated assurances from the college kid who worked for transportation that it wouldn't only be a few more...
