    How is Kona compared to Ohana

    I made ADRs way back 180 days out and now after reading these threads I notice that Ohana sounds better than Kona-where I have reservations. After trying numerous times to make new reservations for Ohana I am not successful at all. Question is "how is Kona?" is the atmosphere nice? good food...

    Any Ideas on how to "SLOW down" trip???

    We are staying Saturday to Saturday and I think this will be key to spending our entire first day exploring the WL and we have dinner at Poly planned late so we could watch Wishes on their beach after dinner. It gives us a chance to take boat over to Contempo, then monorail it to...

    Mid/late August crowds

    In my past experiences, the week after you are going is quieter..because Southern schools go back that week. The touring plans crowds # goes down the following week. The crowds are very manageable and the park is more enjoyable...it's not empty, but very open where you don't feel so...

    I am a teacher with a Master's Degree too and I am in the process of making a move to the area..I was also wondering about any kind of positions that an educator could do there. How about tour guides? Is that even a position? I would love some feedback from workers...Thanks

    "Good" standard room @ Wilderness Lodge

    Thank you very much for the info! I am going to be upgrading to a Woods view room just to make sure that I get a better view. It's not the most important thing but to make a vacation that I worked hard to go on, more enjoyable I think it is worth it. Thanks again!:)

    "Good" standard room @ Wilderness Lodge

    You are so right and I am not taking your comment as snide at all. Before I upgrade, I just want to exhaust all options and since it is my first time staying there, I want to really understand the layout, etc ( I am a bit obsessive about my Disney trips..LOL) After reading several responses, I...
