I haven't been on this forum for a long time, but I had to share this! Dole Whip is now available in one place in the UK, Chester Zoo. I went earlier this week, and had dole whip, which they call pineapple whip. It was delicious, the taste was the same as in WDW, but the texture was not quite...

Hi everyone, we arrived home on Monday morning after an amazing holiday at WDW. The people on this trip were me, DH, DD (19) and DD(15). We left home on Saturday 20th August, and were driven to a hotel near Heathrow Airport by my DD's lovely boyfriend. I was lucky enough to be...

We're in WDW at the moment and have a few days left. We have lots of snack credits over. Can you recommend some good snacks to get? We'll be mainly going to the MK, Epcot and Disney Springs. Thank you!

We are going to SS this summer, and have the free DDP. I am thinking about which part to stay in. We want to be close to a pool, but we also want to be close to somewhere to get free refills for our refillable cups. If I request a room in the Paddocks very close to the pool, does that sound...

Quite a few years ago, we went to MNSSHP. I seem to remember watching the fireworks, and I'm sure there were perimeter fireworks, and the whole thing was even more impressive than usual. Do they still use perimeter fireworks for the Halloween party? And if so, would we be able to watch them...

This is my first pre-trip report, although I haven't written a trip report for our last trip in 2015 yet! Perhaps I should do that first! We are going to Saratoga Springs for 2 weeks. We have stayed in the Polynesian a few times and absolutely love it, but it's getting more expensive every...

We are lucky enough to have the free dining for our Disney holiday this summer. We have used the dining plan before, and find it great. I have been reading about the things that you can substitute, and found this statement which refers to the quick service credits. You can now substitute...

We have just booked flights to Orlando, and fly next Friday! We are looking for a villa for four people, or a townhouse, and would love a private pool. It seems that all the villas we find are already booked. I've tried a few villa websites, but I can't find anything. There are condos...

We've just got home from an 11 day stay in Florida. We didn't stay on site this time. We weren't planning to go this year, but we saw a package holiday for a good price a few weeks ago, and convinced ourselves to go! We didn't tell our teenage daughters, as we were hoping to surprise them, so...

We are staying on international drive at the moment. We love the shrimp at Ohana and will be going there, but would like to try an off site restaurant too. Does anyone have any recommendations?

We will be staying near WDW in July, and are considering spending a day at Cocoa Beach. I have found some information on the internet, but really want to ask, if it's a nice place, if it's safe, if it's a good place to spend a day? We don't want to lie on the beach really, we would walk, maybe...

I have booked a trip to WDW in July, and have bought tickets and linked them to My Disney Experience. The tickets are 9 day tickets which were on offer for the price of 7 days. I have made fastpass reservations for 7 of those days, but the system will not allow me to make any more. All days...

We had an amazing holiday last August at the Polynesian, and thought that it would be our last trip to Florida for a few years, but we've just booked to go in a few weeks! I know it will be very hot and very crowded, but we are limited to when we can go, so we'll just make the best of it. I...

We had a fantastic trip to WDW in August, and I am very late starting the trip report. :) We stayed at the Polynesian for the first two weeks of August and had a fantastic time. There were four of us, DH, me, and our two DDs who are 16 and 12. I will sort out my photos and then write the...

I'm sitting on the balcony in the Polynesian while my family are still sleeping! We're having a lazy day today - a few hours by the pool and then a meal at the Coral Reef and priority viewing for Illuminations. We are having a great holiday so far. We arrived last Wednesday, and have been in...

We are going to WDW for the first two weeks of August. I know it will be very hot and busy but it was the only time we could go. I have two young teenage DDs who are crazy about Harry Potter, so we are planning a few days at Universal. The last time we went was in 2003, so we are not sure...

We are flying into Sanford this year for the first time in 14 years! Looking at a map, it seems one easy route is to take the I4. Is that the easiest route or should we avoid the interstate? We will be landing at about 1.30pm, so travelling to WDW early afternoon.

We are going to WDW in August, and I have to make my ADRs on Friday. We haven't been to WDW since 2009, and I'm sure things have changed a lot since then. Can anyone give me some advice on the following questions? Dining reservations: we are staying at the Polynesian and love 'Ohana...

Does anyone know if teachers get any discounts when booking at WDW? If so, do they have to be teachers in the USA, or would teachers in the UK be eligible?

I am really asking a favour of anyone who happened to visit the MK on Wed 16th December last year, and watched the Princess and the Frog show on the riverboat. We took part in this with our 2 girls, and were told that the photopass photographers would take our photos. They did take a few...
