    Moving to FL - WDW benefits for residents

    So, I am a long time member here but not a frequent poster in the last several years. We just found out today, we are relocating to Jacksonville for work. Well, the first thing that comes to mind is, WHOA!, we can go to WDW more often. Can anyone point me in the direction of any tips for...

    Stuck on Screamin (trip report-ish story)

    So on the last day of our trip, we split up to get some things finished up before going home. I'm standing in line with dd to meet Elsa and Anna when I get a text from dh that they are stuck on top of the big hill at Screamin. Of course I thought, meh, good story for later until I got the same...

    At DL right now, just been profiled by security

    I have been here on these boards for many years and while I am not a regular poster, I feel I know the Disney system pretty well. I realize this may sound completely crazy but I am certain Disney security is profiling plus size white women. I have been pulled aside twice now in less than 36...

    Other possible closings Jan 2016

    Right now I am very seriously considering pulling the plug on our first family trip to DL. DH and I were there Jan 2015 for our anniversary and fell in love with the pace and character of DL/DCA. We had always gone to WDW until our not so magical last trip in Sept 2013 and will not go back to...

    Why are ride closures constantly changing?

    I understand that a ride closure schedule might change a few days here or there and there might be a last minute addition to the list but the way the list for DL changes is like trying to hit a moving target. We are planning our first trip for our anniversary at the end of January and I had...

    Living Under a Rock?

    Somehow I have missed the information about the character warehouse outlet stores main headquarters (AMS) being about 20 minutes from my house. They do not have a permanent store here like the stores in California but they are having a warehouse sale through December 28. I'm sure many of you...

    New "Unofficial" Disney Paper

    Here is the new line from Reminisce called Real Magic 2008. For those not familiar with this brand, it is very good quality and some of the papers in their original line (Real Magic) have a shimmer that the pictures don't show. The new line has just released....finally, and it looks great. I...

    I have looked through countless threads for an opinion on the Wine and Dine Plan and I don't find anything from anyone actually using this add on. Has anyone used this plan? If so, what was your opinion. Did you feel like you got a deal. (well a deal as far as alcohol at WDW goes) Thanks!

    Back in June, I discovered two online scrapbooking courses on the Disney Family.com website. They have several classes in their Learning Center on various subjects. One was a basic intro to scrapbooking course and the other was a digital course. I would have posted the link back then but...

    Help with Pop Floor Plans

    Two years ago while planning our first trip to Pop Century, I found (on the net) a layout of the floor plans that showed specific room numbers. It was in the "T" shape of the Pop buildings and it showed which rooms were connecting rooms and which were hc accessible, etc. It was very detailed...

    Aloha vs Grand Gathering Experience

    Ok guys, I can't find enough info from attendees of any of the Grand Gathering Experiences so I need your help. Should I plan for Spirit of Aloha or one of the GGE for a group of 14? It looks like, from the reviews I have read, that Aloha is hit or miss. I don't see reviews from any GGE other...
