    Never-ending Sunset!

    I guess it’s a Florida thing I’d forgotten, but it’s almost 10pm and the sky is still a beautiful peach color. It was a cloudy evening so I guess that’s why. Amazing though - it never happens where we live, it’d always be pitch black by now. So nice!

    What Animal Was That?

    Sitting on the patio of our back of the Poly room watching the sunrise and monorails pass by (lovely with music the resort slowly waking up!). Saw a littlle mammal pass by, but couldn’t tell what it was! Still too dark. Not a rabbit because it wasn’t hopping. It looked like a little pig! I then...

    jetBlue Wi-Fi quality

    About to fly jetBlue for the first time. In your experience, how is the quality of their free in-flight wi-fi service? Might want to download or stream some music.

    Can you make Fastpass reservations for during Extra Magic Hours?

    Can you book Fastpasses ahead of time for during Extra Magic Hours? It doesn't seem to be letting me (Epcot is open to 11pm but it's not showing me times for anything beyond 9pm.). Do you have to be checking in to your resort first or something?

    Apple Sauce in Resort Food Shops?

    Anyone know if the resort food shops typically have apple sauce cups? My son needs it to take medication.

    DAK At what age would/did you let your kid(s) watch Avatar?

    We'll be at WDW soon with my 9-yr-old son. He's somehow watched enough YouTube videos that he knows more about Avatar and Pandora at WDW than I realized. But he hasn't seen the movie, and I was wondering if watching it might give more context to the whole idea of going to Pandora in WDW. If you...

    Separate Parks In Universal Orlando?

    I've never been to Universal Orlando, so this is a noob question and probably something that's been discussed a lot (unless I'm completely wrong), but: Are the parks at Universal large enough and separated enough "distance-wise" from each other that they can really be considered separate parks...

    Is there no nighttime parade in the MK anymore?

    I guess I've been out of the loop for a while. Is there no longer any nighttime parade in the MK, even when there's no MNSSHP? Every time I've been at the MK (except maybe in the 70s - I don't remember!) we saw the Electric Light Parade. I never saw that one that replaced it. But now it looks...

    Just what the heading says. Thinking late afternoon through the night.

    Removing someone from possible Fastpass Group members?

    Last time we went to WDW both my sons were with us. This time one will be at college. Whenever I try to make Fastpass reservations he's in the list of possible people to put in the Fastpass group, so I can't just click the button to Include All. I can't figure out how to remove him. I actually...

    Re-Entering Parks?

    Complete noob question here. (While I posted a ton before our last trip and did a lot of research, that was a few years ago so I'm rusty. My new edition of the unofficial guide isn't arriving until tomorrow!) :) So, if you don't have Park-Hopper, can you enter a park, leave, and re-enter it the...

    Were signatures disabled?

    Hi, back after a long hiatus. My preferences say I should be seeing signatures but I don't. Have they been disabled? Just want to know so I don't go nuts trying to get them to show up. Thx.

    Farthest Out you've started planning

    We were last at WDW Oct 2013. Our next trip is planned for some time in the latter three quarters of 2017! (#2 son will turn 8 then, and that's when he feels he'll be ready for some of the bigger rides, which I think is correct.) BTW, I owe you all a trip report - woefully overdue!! I've gotten...

    Lines for pools?

    Never been on a DCL cruise before. The Unofficial Guide makes it sound like there are sometimes lines for some of the pools - is this correct? They do look awfully small for so many passengers. They must at least get pretty crowded sometimes.

    Cyber-Monday Savings at Disney Store - can be used on PhotoPass!

    Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this, but just wanted to point out there are Cyber-Monday savings at the Disney store which can also be used to order PhotoPass photos. I happened to get the warning email today that my PhotoPass photos would be expiring soon, so I high-tailed it over...

    Port Orleans Bedspread FIASCO!

    Noooooooooooooooo! :eek::eek::eek: Don't they know how much time I spent analysing the room photos on portorleans.org, and that we arrive at POFQ tomorrow? Don't they know the bedspreads are part of what I expected DW to see upon first entering the room in which we're going to live for 8 nights...

    Where do you go for beach vacations?

    I would love come February to take a sort of bare bones (i.e., relatively inexpensive) vacation somewhere with a nice beach and a nice pool (and warm weather!) - open to suggestions. We live in NY. This would probably be during Presidents week (week of Feb 17th). We've been to Cancun a couple...

    Airport Parking/Car Seat Issue

    We're bringing DS4, but not his car seat (will be using Disney transportation the entire visit), so the only issue is getting to the airport (Laguardia in NYC). I'd like to drive our car there so we can use our car seat for the ride, but it looks like the parking will cost about $150 for the...

    Is there were no more Free Dining, are there restaurants you would stop dining at?

    If there were no more free dining plans at WDW, are there places you go to that you wouldn't visit if you had to pay OOP? The reason I ask is that we're not doing Free Dining, and I sometimes wonder if there are some places that people feel is worthwhile on free dining, but don't feel is...
