So my family and I are looking to purchase Florida resident tickets for the first time this year for an upcoming July trip. I know all about what paperwork to bring thanks to Disney's website but I was hoping to hear a bit more about the "pick-up" process from someone who's actually done it...

This is probably as random a question as I've ever had but I hope I've come to the right place! My sister's coworker recently described a "tiki"-like plant that her mother took home from Walt Disney World in the 1970s as a souvenir. Though she says everyone teases her mother for making up its...

We plan on getting a a Guest Assistance Pass during an upcoming trip for someone in our party...can it be used for any (or all?) character Meet and Greets? I was wondering if anyone had any experiences to share. We know from past trips that there is a lot of variation from attraction to...

I have an upcoming ADR for Downtown Disney's Portobello and was curious if anyone had any recent experiences with the restaurant (hopefully with photos of some of the menu's items!) to help me decide if it's worth keeping. We ate there a long time ago (probably 7+ years) and enjoyed it...

I'm sure someone remembers the old park hopper commercials that featured a "character" ticket (someone dressed in a yellow costume). They showed the "Hopper" going around the parks and doing funny things (i.e. swimming at the water parks and being squeezed like a sponge, applying suntan lotion...

This year we tried the duck dumplings from Kona Cafe...they were super similar. Whatever sauce or seasonings they use must be identical. I was actually hoping they taste differently (we had eaten in 'Ohana already on the trip) but they didn't. I'd never had duck before but ground-up with...

Interesting...I always thought the old loop was a bit short (although I still adored it). If you hung around by say the pool long enough, it was noticeably repetitive. I'm just glad it's still on-theme by all accounts.

I was browsing Tikiman's Polynesian-dedicated site and was surprised to see that the music loop played in the resort has been completely changed. Since he confirms it, I'm just curious - has anyone heard the new music on a recent trip? Any opinions? I must say I'll miss the old loop...I listen...

Thanks so much! I saw your trip report...you guys look like you had so much fun! The rooms did look better from your pictures. Someone in my family really hated the beds/bedding, I guess because they compared them to the ones in the moderates and deluxes. Any idea if those were changed in the...

I've seen photos of renovated rooms over at Pop Century complete with LCD tvs, new furniture, carpets, etc. Which rooms/buildings were redone so far? Is it possible to request them? I can't seem to find much info on a renovation anywhere. Thanks for any help :wave:

All the debating about the specific free dining promotion aside, is it strange/notable that the promotions would completely end--as in no more would be offered--on August 15? Way back I remember the announcement from some head honcho that the company needs to scale its promotions, but after a...

This is what I was curious about. The food is exactly the same? That's crazy...the prices are significantly lower in some places. Very interesting.

Is Coral Reef really a signature Dining Location? I have 2010 Dining PDF downloaded from Disney.com and it's not listed a Signature Dining Location/Worth 2 Points? Are you sure...this would mess up my reservations! haha

I've been tossing around the idea of incorporating some sit-down lunch meals during our trip...some people coming along might need and enjoy the break mid-day. Even though I'm sure I'll be antsy to ease up from the rides, I'm seriously considering it. I've looked though the menus, lunch vs...

I stay at the Poly yearly. The pool is always jammed daily and it is obvious (from overheard conversations, seeing other people use the pool area to change back into clothes) that in many cases a good number of people have pool hopped. As someone who's shelling out a good deal of money per night...

i was so curious about this! thanks for the picture! i saw another map online (earlier design i think) that showed the monorail line going into tomorrowland. obviously this never came to be for wdw...any specific reason why?

Sorry if this has been posted before or is common knowledge, but is the pizza in HS's Pizza Planet identical to the pizza in AK's Pizzafari? We've enjoyed the pizza in Pizzafari but always felt like there are more interesting options elsewhere in AK that we were missing because of it. Since HS...

Great report...I just loved reading it! The Poly is the best :) Quick question: where is this picture of Lady and the Tramp? I've eaten in Tony's for years and I've never seen this! Also, were the boat launches not running to the Poly because of the cold?

hmm. I wonder if the photo will go on the Photo Pass card?
