    How Many Days for You? Part 12

    I only posted yesterday but its 7 days today!!! I was diagnosed with cancer 14 days before we were meant to go last year and we had to cancel so I could have urgent treatment. All through treatment I kept imagining myself standing in Epcot again with my family and every time I was on the...

    Best Rooms for Five

    We are staying at The Riviera in a deluxe studio - it sleeps 5 but we are staying because our kids are 15 and 18 and don't want to share a bed. We didn't rent DVC points, just booked through Virgin.

    Struggling with anxiety over leaving children and considering cancelling WDW - help?

    You're overthinking, a little time apart will be beneficial for you - you need time to be 'you' again and not be 'mum and dad'! My kids are 15 and 18 now but we left on our honeymoon for 10 days when they were 4 and 2, they had a blast at nannies houses and we had a lovely refresh getting time...

    Most magical moment at WDW (fairly recently)?

    I think it's worth remembering that magic moments are meant to be just that, if they happened all the time and/or happened to everyone they wouldn't be 'magical' anymore, they would just be normal. It's the rarity of these special moments and moments of kindness that make it magical.

    Updated rooms are boring!

    I would politely disagree with this, I'd say it would be the other way around, the AOA rooms are DRIPPING with theming from every inch, whereas Grand Floridian rooms have always been barely themed.

    If you could only pick one singular Disney Park to visit for the rest of your life….

    Wow I'm surprised there's not been a single vote for Hollywood Studios yet! Mine would be Magic Kingdom because it has the most rides, however if they really fleshed out the World Showcase at Epcot with a ride per pavilion it could easily pip Magic Kingdom to the post.

    Blizzard Beach Reopening

    Blizzard Beach is our favourite and we haven't been able to go since 2018 as the last time we went it was closed for winter refurb.

    Where'd all the benches go?

    Oh no, I understand, I'm 'only' 40 but I struggle to get up off the floor, I get my husband to HOOF me up, its lucky he's strong!

    Where'd all the benches go?

    As a family we tend to find a quiet corner in the shade somewhere and just sit on the floor.

    Most magical moment at WDW (fairly recently)?

    Back in 2019 we were staying at POR, it was Christmas time and the parks were insanely busy. We'd had a rough day (I was suffering with depression/anxiety at the time caused by cancer, although I didn't know it then) and we got our food at the for court and lined up at the till to pay. The cast...

    Updated rooms are boring!

    Can I ask anyone who's stayed recently if you find the noise from neighbouring rooms more obvious with the lack of carpeting? Also, I'd like to clarify that for me some of the point of staying in a Disney owned resort on property (as opposed to The Swan or Dolphin) was the theming, I remember...

    Updated rooms are boring!

    Has anyone else noticed (with the exception of the Moana themed Poly rooms) that the room updates at various resorts are so BORING! All the imagineering magic seems to have disappeared from the boring wooden floors to the standard furniture. Yes they've added a character themed picture or...

    Dinoland USA = Terra Nova?

    Agreed, really great show! I do think Disney is looking at utilising it's more internationally recognised characters/movies for everything now though.
