    New Disney Bus Paint Scheme

    I like it. I liked the old version, too, but I like the retro feel of this new color scheme.

    Would you discontinue FastPass?

    I'm in favor of FastPass sticking around.

    MagicBands....Will you wear one?

    If it turns out that there will be an opt-out option, I will opt-out.

    First timer staying at a Value resort.....need some help

    The original poster is travelling at Labor Day. School/sports groups shouldn't be an issue at that time.

    Unofficial Guide or Birnbaum's

    Any WDW guidebook you buy will be outdated by the time it hits the stores. You can find more up to date info on message boards and blogs. I haven't bought a Disney book in years. That being said... 1. Birnbaum - lots of colorful yet dated pictures of Disney attractions and overused Disney...

    First timer staying at a Value resort.....need some help

    All Star Music is my favorite Value resort. As someone else mentioned, Calypso is preferred and costs more. Also, it's mostly family suites. The next best pick is Jazz...you should request this on your reservation as well. We stayed in Rock and we were fine as the layout at this Value is the...

    Beat standard room/building at Pop

    50s or 70s We were in the 70s the last time we stayed at Pop and it was a straight shot to the food court. Worked out great!

    Resort options?

    The AB area of POR can sleep families of five, so they kinda get dibs. You can put in a request and hopefully they'll honor it if space allows. I would call and have your preference noted on your reservation now because when you do online check in you won't be able to request it then. Hope you...

    Resort options?

    Why not finish the category and stay at Coronado Springs? ;) (I know the cabins are Mods too, but I don't look at them that way.) I've stayed in all levels of the Disney Resorts, and the only thing I don't like about the moderates is you still get to your room from the outside like in a...

    Ash Wednseday

    This is correct as of several years ago now. Your best option for attending Mass is the Mary Queen of the Universe shrine. If their Mass times don't match up for you, there's a Catholic church in Celebration, I believe it's Corpus Christie. It's tucked waaaaay back into Celebration, too, so...

    Best First Ride For A First Timer

    Do they have a plan on what order they will be visiting the parks in? Do they have any ride restrictions (ex, fears, height/health requirements)? Here's my picks based on what I feel WDW does best in each park: MK - Haunted Mansion Epcot - Soarin (I would have said Test Track, but haven't seen...

    How to "fix" Living Seas

    The Living Seas needed an update, so when they took out the hyrolators and put back the ride, I was fine with it. What I'm not fine with is the Nemo nonsense. I wish there was a way to fix what was broken before Nemo without adding Nemo. Know what I mean? Not sure James Cameron is the...

    A Booking Question

    All three resort options are wonderful. I didn't vote because choosing a resort is going to depend on your preferred way to get to certain parks. Do you want to have the ease of walking to MK? Choose BLT. Will you be spending a lot of time in the World Showcase? Then pick BWV. Don't mind...

    Wing it or plan every minute? What do you do?

    We always try to take advantage of PM EMH at Epcot and MK. Other than that, we wing it. No ADRs or DDP either.

    Value More Expensive Than Deluxe.

    You're right about that bathroom at CBR. Teeny tiny!!! Smaller than a Value Resort. Our AKL bathroom was normal size, roomy in fact.

    Value More Expensive Than Deluxe.

    We were in a king room at both resorts. CBR is actually 4 sqft smaller than AKL (CBR 340, AKL 344) so it could have something to do with the shape or furniture. CBR was roomier for us, but AKL was more "WOW!" Hope this helps!

    Mara at Animal Kingdom Lodge

    Here's the breakfast menu from All Ears. http://allears.net/menu/menu_mara.htm Their lunch/dinner menu is also available. We didn't find it too hard to get to The Mara, but we were on that side of the hotel. We ate there every day. :)

    Value More Expensive Than Deluxe.

    I was surprised at the size of the rooms at AKL, but I'm used to Value Resorts so it didn't bother me. My room at CBR was much bigger than AKL. But you can't beat AKL's theming! It's an awesome resort!!!
