    Flame Tree Barbecue closing for extensive remodel at Disney's Animal Kingdom

    Argh. It will now be closed during my upcoming Disney trip. The Flame Tree BBQ chicken salad is one of my favorite meals at Disney... wish they were offering that at a kiosk somewhere in AK during this closure! Thanks for the update, it helps with my planning!

    Marketplace Margarita Bar construction

    I hope this is open April 30 when I'm there! I'm more excited about this Margarita bar than I am about Trader Sam's grog grotto (which I probably won't bother with, due to the reported crazy crowds there). I loved the old Margarita Bar and really missed it (and the steel drum performer!) on my...

    A Spirited Perfect Ten

    Is there anywhere to find the schedule for the press events? I'm going to be in Disney at that time, but want to avoid running into any media crowds (or unanticipatied area closures) if possible. Or maybe the events all happen behind the scenes and out of the way?

    EPCOT Entertainment cuts

    One of my favorite things to do in Epcot is get a drink and listen to Off Kilter and British Invasion and wander around there. Love the upbeat, rocking (by Disney standards), live music - it gives the area a fun, party atmosphere and always feels special, especially as the sun sets. I'm happy...

    Splash Mountain closing for annual refurbishment in January 2014

    I hope to hear Splash is open for my trip in early January for Marathon weekend. I go down for this race weekend most years, and Splash is usually closed. I've always wished they could keep it open at least through the Marathon weekend since the events increase crowds to a degree. This year...

    My magic+ testing report

    The biggest things which will affect how I visit Disney: 1) The 3 fastpass per day limit 2) Fastpasses in one park only 3) Inability to re-fastpass the same ride 4) Pre-set daily (sometimes hourly) schedules for the entire trip. Edited to add one more: 5) possible inability to choose my...

    Chances of TRON attraction now that movie is out?

    I saw TRON last night in IMAX 3D. The theater was sold out for my show (8pm sunday night). I know the initial box office means everything these days, but for some people (like me, in the age range of mid-30's, who remember the original fondly) it is really hard to run out the door on opening...

    Walt Disney World to build 2,000-room Hotel: Disney’s Art of Animation Resort

    Wow!! Those unfinished buildings across Hourglass Lake from Pop always look so very creepy when viewed across the Generation Gap Bridge, especially at night ... so this is welcome news to me! Very interesting! :)

    Where exactly is Toy Story Mania in DHS??

    Ooooh, thanks!!! We will indeed have a great time. Just a quick 2-day trip, but it's always great to go to Disney! I'm excited!

    Where exactly is Toy Story Mania in DHS??

    Sorry if this topic has already been covered... I'm sure it has, but anyway: I'm heading to Disney next weekend for the Annual Passholder preview of Toy Story Mania, and wanted to know: where EXACTLY in Disney Hollywood Studios is this attraction? We are going to get there at park opening and...

    Tower Of Terror Friday The 13th Passholder EVENT!

    Me too. That was fast! I never even got the announcement email that others were talking about, and I'm an Annual Passholder.

    Tower of Terror 13K *night* marathon

    That's great! If you like running, and you like Disney, you will love running at Disney! At least that's my opinion. Disney has the resources and the experience to host fun, well-organized running events. :)

    Tower of Terror 13K *night* marathon

    I can't wait to do this race. I'm a huge Disney fan and a runner: I did the Disney 1/2 Marathon this January, I'm going up for the Minnie Marathon in May, and will definitely be doing this one too! I've done a few marathons and more running races, triathlons, etc. than I can count, and my...

    Is anyone else having trouble logging into the Annual Passholder site?

    Thanks for the suggestion! I tried it and it didn't work, but I'll try again later. One never knows. Anyway, at least now I know I'm not the only one having a problem with it today...

    Is anyone else having trouble logging into the Annual Passholder site?

    I can't log in today... are any other passholders out there having the same problem? I tried to submit this issue on the "Contact Us" form on the Disney site as well, but got a failure notice with that too. Just wondering, thanks!

    EE AP Preview hours/wait times???

    I don't know whether the parking lot closed off or not, but I know when I got there in the early AM, there were more cast members than usual attending to the parking (some of them looked like management). And they instructed me to park on the grass... they were trying to fill up every available...

    EE AP Preview hours/wait times???

    Here's what I did today (Sat. 1/28), which seemed to work I went to the preview today and managed to ride several times and leave AK by about noon (to go take a nap at blizzard beach!). Here is how I did it. I don't know if it'll work for anyone else tomorrow (especially since I'm posting so...

    The roaches

    Most likely it was indeed a june bug that I ate. A supersized one! They seem to drop into swimming pools en masse at night in the summer. But yes, I agree that june bugs are nothing compared to palmettos from what I hear. I remember gagging and my swim coach screaming out, "Protein! It's...
