    Where is Donald?

    I was just typing that you could find him and Daisy around the hat in the Studios - when I remembered that hat is gone! (It's like phantom limb syndrome for me, as I still think it's there.) Are those M&Gs still happening? Donald might be where ever they went...

    Disney confirms 'Frozen' makeover coming to Epcot's Norway Pavilion

    I like "Chilly Little Mermaid" Enter with sub characters (Scuttle/Olaf), have a little dance-like middle (fish/trolls), something scary forces us to move on (Ursula/Elsa), and pretty, married couple waving good-bye for the big finish (Ariel & Eric/Anna & Kristoff).

    Disney is getting rid of hot cheese

    I love a good cheesy bread... I mean thread.

    FastPass+ stressing me out...

    I like to think about where we'll be during the day to determine our FP+s. But, it's more day dreaming for me and I really enjoy it - so it's not a burden or stressful. This is what I usually do: 1. Determine how many days you will be in each park. 2. Pick your top 3 for each day. 3. Use...

    Bummed that Pirates will be closed for our trip..

    Can you blame them? The rum was gone!

    Has anyone else noticed dining booked up?

    Is it 180 days out? This seems very odd to me. We booked the second week of Dec last year at 180 days out with no problems. I was also able to change them weeks later, as I always do. Maybe the times aren't open yet. I would keep checking.

    Making FP+ when staying at 2 onsite resorts

    Those were my thoughts too. Once I make them, I'll let you know what worked. Thanks!

    Making FP+ when staying at 2 onsite resorts

    Not a package. We're staying on DVC points at BLT. Paid cash with an AP discount at Sports.

    Making FP+ when staying at 2 onsite resorts

    Due to airfare being less expensive the day before our original arrival day (8/16), we are flying in on 8/15 and get an extra day in the parks (thank you wacky airlines!!) We wanted to make this a smart economical decision so we are staying at All Star Sports for the night of 8/15. On 8/16...

    Need Help With Post Vacation Depression

    Agreed!! DS always cries at the end of a trip because it is so depressing to leave the fun of all the good family time. And I definitely need a tissue as we walk out. It's because of this that we try to have an idea of when we'll be back before we leave! Start planning your next trip!! :)

    Rumor on changes to Disney Dining Plan

    THIS is why I love the DDP (and I know I'm in the minority). The "prepay for your meals" is key for my sanity/enjoyment of my meals since DH is the type who will always stress over money spent. Regardless if we're gazillionaires or on a strict budget -it's spending money and something snaps in...

    Planning vs Planning

    Aug will be our 3rd trip using FP+. I've found that planning your park days first (obviously, otherwise you don't know where to get your FP+s), then ADRs, and finally FP+s works well. I even visualize walking through the parks and what we might want to do - in order to space out the FP+s and...

    What Ride/Event/Show do you wish you SKIPPED with your children?

    With my cute, yet cautious kid, I wish we had skipped when he was younger: Tough to be a bug - too dark and scary Mickey's Philharmagic - too loud/in your face (and Donald "gets in trouble") Any fireworks - too loud Haunted Mansion - too scary Dinosaur - we did skip this since I knew it would be...

    Change of plans, first day ideas..

    Since you're staying at the CR, I would see if there is any availability at Chef Mickey's for dinner... Especially if your little ones want to see the characters. I find that we enjoy CM more at the start of a trip - more excitement. Then you can find a spot on the bridge to watch the...

    New high-tech guest laundry machines rolled out at Walt Disney World Resort hotels

    I try not to do laundry on vacation, but this is just cool.

    What are the best character experiences?

    We love the character meals. Tusker House is always a must do for us - the food is amazing! It's a nice way to take a break after some rides as well. It's also one of the few places to find Daisy, but not Pluto :( or Minnie. Chef Mickey's is great if you want to see the Fab Five (which does...

    Scoring BOG reservations

    I've either been very lucky, or the trick is to be up and ready to click that ADR button at 6:00 a.m. the day your window opens. We've eaten there every trip since it opened, and we average a trip every 9/10 months. (Hope I didn't just jinx myself.) Try online first because the window opens an...
