    MMRR Queue Carpet in Horrible Shape

    I rode MMRR once during the COVID reopening period and hadn't ridden since. Last Thursday I decided to give it another try to see if it would be better with the pre-show. Alas, we get to the pre-show room and the screen is just open like it was for the COVID reopening period. Getting back to...

    What's with the OC Sheriff's Office Presence on Property?

    We just had a short visit Thursday evening through this morning and I've never seen so many OC Sheriff's Office SUVs around the property. There was a decoy SUV in the median on Hotel Plaza Blvd but it seemed like everywhere we drove on property we'd pass at least one and usually more than one...

    How Does Somebody Get an EV Parking Space at Disney World?

    I'm considering an EV purchase in the next couple of years. For an EV to be convenient for me to take to WDW, I would need to be able to charge while in the park one time. Typically, my round trip including driving around the WDW vicinity is about 500 miles. Having to charge at a charging...

    The scenario would be as follows: Staying off site. Going to parks up until the day before blackout date. Before heading home the morning of the blackout date would like to go to bakery at boardwalk for a very healthy breakfast pastry. Will I be able to park at DHS for free on the blackout...

    Will WDW Add Weight Limits to Ride Signage?

    In the wake of the tragedy at ICON park which seems to be the result of the unfortunate kid being significantly over the weight limit for the ride (likely combined with ride staff not paying attention), do you think WDW will add the maximum weight for each ride to the warning signs? I don't...

    How did I get a photo from Dinosaur without Magic Band?

    Was at AK today. I got home I noticed I had an alert from the app that I had a photopass picture from Dinosaur. I didn't have a magic band, just cards in my pocket. I rode 4 times basically in a row (once without getting off) and only one picture showed up. I'm trying to figure out how this...

    Will they ever fix Soarin' distortion?

    Ever since the change from Soarin' over California to the current version and the replacement of the original IMAX projection system with the digital laser projectors, the bending and distortion of the projection is horrible and removes any sense of realism (unless you are dead center). The...

    EPCOT Is The Art of Disney Store Being Relocated?

    I tried a search and didn't find any info. I was in Epcot for the first time in several months yesterday to experience Wall Disney World. I saw that the Art of Disney store was closed in preparation to demolish the building. That was always one of our favorite places to stop on the way in or...

    No More Free Samples at Ghirardelli

    Was at DS yesterday and stopped by the Ghirardelli store. They no longer give out free samples. I overheard somebody actually asking about it. I figured it out when there was nobody handing out samples. I don't know how somebody isn't embarrassed to ask for them.

    Solved: MDE only letting me book FP+ 28 days in advance

    30 days from today is March 25th. I have an AP so should get to book 30 days in advance. MDE will only let me choose up to March 23rd. Anybody know what is going on? Update: I realized that 3/24-4/6 are blackout dates for the Gold Pass. I wasn't thinking when I was looking for FP+.

    Why Android App Update Wants Bluetooth/Phone Number Access

    My android phone popped up a message for an available MDE app update. It wants permission to use Bluetooth and access my phone number. Any idea why it would need either of these? I don't want Disney putting my cell phone number on a marketing list and then sharing it with their partners.

    AK Construction Walls

    What is with the miles of construction walls all over Animal Kingdom? It felt like walking around the former Pleasure Island area of Downtown Disney the other day. Most of them are nowhere near Avatar Land.

    Magicband for AP Parking?

    I renewed my APs a few weeks ago and haven't gotten the parking/discount card in the mail yet. I called since I may decide to head over to the parks in the next few days. The guy asked if I had magicbands. When I said yes he told me not to worry about parking because they can scan it at the...

    Any place outside of my account to check FP+ availability

    So here is the situation. I have FP+ for 7DMT, Splash and Space in that order. I want to try and get 7DMT later in the night. I keep checking and once in a while an earlier time shows available. I want to find out if there is any availability during my Splash and Space times. Then, I'd move...

    Florida Resident Annual vs. Seasonal Pass

    I'm trying to decide if I should renew my Florida Resident Annual Passes or "downgrade" to a Seasonal Pass. The blackout dates don't bother me because we rarely, if ever, go during those times. I don't make up the difference in price with parking based on the number of days we tend to go each...

    My wife and I have been eating there for years everytime we are in the area (since the early 90's). We were up there yesterday and all of a sudden it's closed. Anybody know what happened?

    What happened to Brer Frog on Lifthill?/Side Q on Brer Rabbit's Mailbox

    I don't know how long it's been gone but I was there yesterday and Brer Frog is no longer on the first little lift hill. Anybody know what happened to him or if he'll be back? Second comment is something I've wondered for a while. Why is Brer Rabbits mailbox on the left at the beginning of...

    What happened to the Drumming Porcupine in Splash Mountain?

    I haven't been to WDW in a few weeks but the last several times I've been to MK over the past couple of months the drumming porcupine that sings the "counter melody" (time to be turnin' around) has been gone. His audio is also gone. Anybody know why or know if he is coming back. I had never...

    New space mountain line routing

    I was at MK yesterday and found an interesting new line routing. Instead of splitting fastpass and standby at the top of the ramp and then just having everybody go immediately left or right they were doing something different. At the split off, Fastpass was routed left or right directly to the...
