    Trip Report One lump or two? A last minute Holiday trip.

    Hello All - I haven’t attempted a trip report since probably February of 2022. Before that it was probably a 2016 trip. 😱 But I have a last minute trip coming up and I’ve been practicing my trip reporting skills on holiday get away to NYC this weekend - so going to attempt to document our...

    No idea what I'm doing.....

    Hi All - I've never been to a Universal Park, but I'm taking (4) 16 year old girls (my daughter and her three best friends), myself, my husband, and my 20 year old son for a week in October. We are staying at the Loews Pacific Royal (I think that's what it's called) and we'll get the Express...

    Trip Report Never Grow Up…Disneyland 2022

    Hi All! Long time, no trip reports! As in - it’s been over a decade (I think?) since I’ve written one! I’ve really enjoyed the Besties Disneyland report and thought I’d share a little bit of my trip out to DL. My trip almost (but not quite!) over lapped with the Besties. When: President’s Day...

    Current COVID Precaution Status at Disneyland

    Hi All - I did read through two threads in this Disneyland section - one on masks and one on proof of vaccination - but both had kind of 'diverged' from their original topic. The Disneyland website indicates 'the state of California strongly recommends all guests be vaccinated prior to...

    Lost Never Expire Ticket

    I think I know the answer to this, but google did not supply the definitive "Yes/ No" I needed, so I'm reaching out to those in the know on this message board. Question: If you lost your "never-expire" ticket (actual blue card / room key/ ticket thing Disney used to give you when you checked...

    Where to purchase Pocahontas dress this weekend?

    Hello All - Headed back to WDW this weekend. It's been almost a year for us, excited to see all the changes. My daughter would like to wear the Pocahontas dress/ costume for MNSSHP. MNSSHP on Sunday will be our first trip into the parks. Where could we purchase the Pocahontas dress outside...

    One day in June - Friday or Saturday?

    We'll have just one day at Disneyland. We can go Friday, June 6 or Saturday, June 7. Which would you recommend? We'd like to visit both parks (park hop.) It's our first visit as a family. I know it's not ideal, but we'll just have to be thankful we can fit in at least one day, and hope we'll...

    How to get to Universal? Less than 48 hours to go!

    Yikes! We've had the trip planned for over a month, but we just decided to fly today. We leave Sunday, return Wednesday. We can rent a car but I wondered if we'd be better off just taking Magical Express? The only time we'll be off property is when my son and husband head to 'Harry Potter...

    The week before Christmas

    I'm lucky enough to have a birthday near Christmas. :) I've always wanted to attend a MVMCP near my birthday but this year it looks like the last party is on December 19. Is that because they start running the holiday parade for regular park guests on December 20? Would it be better to attend...

    Need a MNSSHP Mine Train strategy

    Haven't ridden the Mine Train yet. Looking to attend a MNSSHP near the end of October but I doubt I'll be able to book a Fastpass (not that I won't try!) What do you think the best strategy will be? Ride right at 7? Ride during the first parade? I don't want to miss the fireworks. Love them...

    Power out at Tusker House?

    A friend from high school just texted to say her family's Thanksgiving Dinner with Donald was canceled due to a power outage. Boo. And the poor CM's on the frontline of that situation! My apologies if this has been posted. Please fell free to redirect & delete if it has.

    Random Last Minute Questions

    I have several questions - all help appreciated! :happy: I've realized after detailed questions from my family, that I *thought* I knew how a Guest Assistance Card works, but I really am not sure. My dad has a doctor's note. I know he will take that note to Guest Services and obtain his GAC...

    Anything new an 'old timer' needs to know?

    Hey All! Long time no see! :) Headed down to the World in two weeks. We're a group of 10, split between rooms at Pop and AoA. We've not been asked to participate in the Magic Bands, which I think means we've avoided them for now. :happy: Of course, this is all me just assuming and I'm...

    Question(s) about EVC's - Help! We've never had one before. :-)

    I read the recent thread about EVC rentals with great interest. Bless my poor father, after struggling through our December 2010 trip with a hip replacement that was less than 3 months old, he is now facing knee replacement surgery soon and we'll be in the World in less than 60 days. Yikes...

    Rain & SWW?

    With Andrea headed towards those of us staying near Tampa (which I just found out about tonight - gotta love being unplugged on vacation!) I wondered about our plans to hit up Star Wars Weekends this Saturday. Go? Stay away? Will they still have the parade in the rain? Meet & greets? These...

    Touring the MK with the New Fantasyland

    I think we are approaching 15 trips to WDW since 2008, so we stopped using maps in the MK long ago. We also, for the most part, just used Touring Plans for the crowd calendar in the past 2 years or so. But now, with the new Fantasyland expansion, I'm wondering - will touring the MK be a...
