    Thoughts on Summer Trips

    Hey everyone! So we settled on June 10th as the date for our trip, D-Day if you will. :D I had purchased Touring Plans to help plan my trip, which is helping me plan what dates I'll be in the parks. According to the site, Magic Kingdom won't be as busy as I thought for that week, between a 5...

    Thoughts on Summer Trips

    Thanks for the replies, everyone. Don't have time to hit all points, but definitely know about the heat, humidity and crowd levels going in, so they'll be no surprises. We're not a park commando style touring family, so we won't plan out our day to the minute on how we'll ride rides and do...

    Thoughts on Summer Trips

    Good morning, fellow Disney lovers. I am planning our family’s first trip to Disney World, and due to various scheduling reasons we can only go during the summer. I understand it will be hot and crowded, but I’m just looking for people’s thoughts and experiences in going during the summer. As...

    Disney Springs Hotels

    Are the resort fees for these Disney Springs hotels per night, or just a one time fee?

    Disney Springs Hotels

    Glad to hear you two say you'd stay again because I'm considering this hotel and some of the reviews on Trip Advisor aren't so good. Now, I don't always rely on reviews. I understand people travel differently and have different tastes and standards, but there were several negative reviews that...

    Why do you stay off site?

    I'm planning my first trip in over 20 years, so for me the price is a big factor.

    If you could only take one lens with you to the parks that day, what would it be and why?

    I have only 2 lenses, my Canon 50 mm f1.8 and a Tamron Tamron 18-270 mm f3.5. That said, if I could only bring one, I'd have to bring my Tamron 18-270mm f3.5.

    Tripods allowed

    This is true

    Tripods allowed

    You're correct, a bad use of words. But what I was thinking was more along the lines of a normal no COVID year when the parks are extremely crowded. Yes, there are those who have used a tripod in the parks with no problem, but I was thinking more from my perspective when I wrote that and...

    Tripods allowed

    That's good to know. If this the case, then hand your phone over to someone to take a family photo.

    Tripods allowed

    I haven't been in years, but a tripod in the World isn't a good idea. If you need one for low light, then consider a monopod. Monopods fit easily into a backpack and can be used quite quickly if you're use to using it. I've used my Monopod where I wasn't supposed to because I was quick at...

    Planning a no park day, what do you do?

    I've always wanted to hit the boardwalk but never took the time to do it. As for the highlighted, well, you'll have to forgive me for I do not know what you are referring to. I know, strange question, but I have literally not been down in years and honestly don't know what's down there show...

    Planning a no park day, what do you do?

    I was thinking of checking out the architecture, so adding a dinner reservation in the resort would be a great way to finish it off. Thanks for the idea. Bicycle carriages! That sounds awesome! Great idea, thanks. ETA: The Boardwalk looks great! And of course ice cream!

    Planning a no park day, what do you do?

    I'm planning a trip for sometime in 2021, and I was wondering if you plan for a no park day, and if so what do you do on those days? I would think a trip to the resort pool is a must, but what else? An afternoon at Disney Springs? Resort hop? Mini golf? I've always wanted to resort hop but...

    Experience of staying off-site vs. on-site

    Hello, everyone! It's been years since I was last down in the World, about 17 to be exact, and when I was last down there I was a cast member, so I had discounts added to my resort stay, so didn't have to pay full price, which was nice. I'm now starting to plan a future trip, don't know when...

    Has Disney Pricing Increases/Atmosphere Cuts Altered YOUR FAMILIES WDW Attendance?

    I didn't vote because it has been so long since my last visti (it's been 17 years, and even then the last time I went down I worked for the mouse, so discounts were applied to my trips), so I didn't think it would be fair for me to vote. That said, I can say that with increase in cost, I won't...

    POFQ Obvervations from a Deluxe Snob

    I've only ever stayed at POFQ and feel like that's set bar for me. I love the theme and grounds and the small size. The only complaint I really have is the one bus stop. I could be out there waiting for 20 minutes for a bus, and a family that just got there could have timed it just right and...

    Post-Check In Activities

    It's been years since, I've been down, but I always checked in and then meandered around the resort checking things out before heading to Downtown Disney. I would sometimes take a dip in the pool before heading over to Downtown Disney.

    Footwear of Choice?

    I know I'm digging up an old thread, but I was going to go and post something very similar to this until I found this thread. The last time I was in WDW. which was 18 years ago, I wore a sandal that strapped across the top, if I remember correctly. I know I didn't wear a shoe as I don't...
