Are the thermostats ones that will shut off heating/air during the night when there is no movement detected after a period of time? Those make me crazy because my sleep is interrupted every night when I have to get up to turn the dang thing down! If they ARE the type to shut off, is there a...

Dolly would be AMAZING! I'm still holding out hope for an Ashley McBryde collab. ;)

As an aside, I was surprised to see an email with updated park hours for AK during my trip (Jan 18-25) from another site. Park opening has been moved back to 8a instead of 9 with closing remaining at 6p. I know the initially-posted hours are boilerplate, but wasn't expecting a change for AK at...

Sarcasm aside, it really is off-putting when you're surrounded by it when approaching the ride. Sure, the RIDE isn't really affected, but WDW used to pride itself, in part, on their ability to provide an overall immersive and high quality experience. This is not high quality and certainly not...

I'm honestly shocked by how much mold/mildew there is growing on the surfaces. I get this is FL and the humidity is BRUTAL to attractions and whatnot, but they knew that when they designed it. You'd think they'd have systems in place (or used materials in building) to maintain the appearance...

I first watched the show with my husband. A few weeks later I convinced my dad to give it a shot when I visited for a long weekend about a month after the shows release. We watched all 10 episodes of Muppets Mayhem in two evenings and loved every episode. It made me feel nostalgic about...

Probably so. There is still availability for Jan 18-25 with the Visa and other "early 2024 booking" discounts coming up. Unfortunately, not for the Villas or much on Deluxe hotels (especially non-club level). I keep fishing for SSR 1BR and am afraid that ship has sailed. 😞

I keep expecting to see more news about a coming recession (us and globally), but either I'm not looking in the right places or a lot of ppl are just not seeing it. (Now, admittedly, those ppl are likely WAY more versed in these things and smarter than I.) I would love to think it isn't...

And I'm glad they did based on our experience... We loved the immersive nature of HP, but only insofar as the look/feel was really neat. We HATED that there were almost no places to sit/rest, the walkways were too cramped with a scooter, and the shops were pretty much inaccessible if you...

Sorry, just saw this! I was looking for January 18-25, iirc.

I'm curious how many people take the offers so WDW can then "resell" the original room and then repeat the cycle with THAT guest. Must be working well for them because I'm seeing a lot of posts about these "special offers".

I tried to price a different hotel tonight under this discount, but I don't see it listed anymore on the website. Did the booking window close? I cannot find a "must be booked by" date in the articles I've seen.

I agree. I think making it all a revamp of Disney songs ignores the history and value of CBJ as an original show (as many have illustrated earlier in the thread, far better than I could). Ultimately, I hope whatever they decide to do with the new show has more than a few one-liners harkening...

Hear me out.... Ashley McBryde singing an arrangement of "Part of Your World" (she sings a song from LM as a warmup before going on stage (or used to, anyway), and I THINK it is this one. She happily attended the world premier of LM. (Complete with "clutch fries", because...who doesn't need a...

I LIVE for the pain au chocolat!

I don't know how often they update their website, but the Cake Bake Shop still has 2023 listed as the anticipated opening on their website. https://thecakebakeshop.com/blogs/news/the-cake-bake-shop-is-coming-to-walt-disney-world%C2%AE-resort

I guess this sorta gives me some hope that it'll be ready when we come in January...? *sigh* Maybe....? I was really hoping to be able to enjoy this with my Dad (his first trip since Epcot opened) and sister (both of our first trips without kids). I get that mold would require striping to...

Thank you for the response. I suppose I'll try to do a load at WDW before we head over to Uni. Not ideal, but better than having to do ALL my laundry when I get back, I suppose.

I have read that there is no self-service laundry at Portofino Bay, but that you can either go to another hotel to do laundry or use the bags in the room for laundry service. What I haven't been able to find updated information about is pricing, so I'm hoping someone here can help me out...

We'll be there during part of that period and I got the notice as well. My fear is that the crowds are going to be bigger than anticipated, hence the expanded hours, but I'm going to hold out hope for otherwise....anything otherwise. 😝
