    Trip Report Lebeau Family Trip Report 2019: Portofino Bay, Mardis Gras and Birthday Fun - Completed

    Glad to hear the mobile ordering worked out well for you this trip. Agreed...Simpsons' Food Court is a madhouse and anything they can do to make it less so is an improvement. Enjoying the TR very much!

    New Harry Potter Coaster Confirmed for 2019 (Dragon's Challenge Closing Sept 4th)

    Man...let me chime in and say that I agree that the ride looks: too long too realistic too fun I think Universal should be roundly shamed for building such a ride and that everyone not on this forum should boycott it. /sarcasm

    Trip Report Disney Dreamin' of a night at AKL--a little bit of a different trip...COMPLETED

    I didn't know you guys went to Trader Sam's! That crowd was ridiculous when we were there at Poly and we never got a chance to experience it.

    Universal Has Started Charging $2 for Some Ride Lockers

    That is truly remarkable. Hard to argue against a money grab when the "...but you can rent the small ones for free" still allows the possibility that you can rent them for a cost by accident.

    Trip Report Disney Dreamin' of a night at AKL--a little bit of a different trip...COMPLETED

    Man...I haven't eaten lunch yet and these food pics are killing me! While we didn't get to visit the Serenity Bay area at Castaway Cay, I agree that the water is so nice in the family area. Enjoying the TR!

    Your Top CS Choices at Universal

    I second (third?) the recommendation on the pretzel sticks at Jake's. Those were fantastic.

    Your Top CS Choices at Universal

    While the selection in the Simpsons Food Court is great, I echo what others have said and would absolutely avoid it at the lunch rush. If you can get there early or later, I think it'd be a much more enjoyable experience. We got there at noon (even though I knew better) and paid the price in...

    Trip Report **Completed** Leave for Disney World on Friday The 13th They Said. It'll Be Fun They Said. A July 2018 Trip Report.

    Great idea on having food/candy related to the states you're traveling through! I'll try to remember that on my next road trip. And good call on choosing Goo-Goos, though Moon Pies are also a great TN sweet. Hoping you guys were able to get everything fixed at a reasonable price.

    Trip Report Disney Dreamin' of a night at AKL--a little bit of a different trip...COMPLETED

    Royal Table is definitely the way to go. Think we ate there twice on our cruise several years ago and never had any crowds, plus the food is far superior. Well worth the little bit of extra time to not have the stress of the buffet.

    Universal Has Started Charging $2 for Some Ride Lockers

    The more I think about this, the more I think that it makes far more sense to increase the price on going over the allotted time than it does to charge to use the bigger lockers. During our trip, we each bought wands at Ollivander's and had to lug the boxes around the rest of the day which...

    Universal Has Started Charging $2 for Some Ride Lockers

    I agree it is nickel and diming and will only create discontent. I don't understand the logic at all other than it being a cash grab. If that's the case, raise admission by $2. But don't make me pay to use a mandatory locker to ride a ride.

    Which resort to pick? Help me choose.

    While I've only had one trip experience at Universal, I don't see us ever not staying at one of the resorts that offers express passes. We enjoyed so much not having to plan on crowd sizes, timing, etc. that it was well worth the extra cost for us.

    Trip Report The “lets count the ways Land is greater than World” as seen through the eyes of the #noobsfromgeorgia.

    That's Orson Welles on the left and Charlie Chaplin (I think?) on the right. Great TR so far!

    RIP Stan Lee - Co-creator of Spider-Man, the Hulk and Many Others

    Aw man...I'm going to miss his voice so much. He had one of those "narrate your life moments" kind of voices. Maybe not the rich baritone of Morgan Freeman that people associate with that, but a great one nonetheless. One of the things I've been conflicted about, but ultimately pleased...

    RIP Stan Lee - Co-creator of Spider-Man, the Hulk and Many Others

    I only rode Spiderman once so I appreciate you all jogging my memory. And yes, I remember now that the Hulk reference was his name on the wall rather than over the loudspeaker. I recall it being a "blink and you'll miss it" type thing. Thanks for helping me remember.
