    Waldorf Astoria, JW Marriott etc

    We ended up not being able to go. My husband got COVID the week before. But he really wants to play at Waldorf so we will replan this for another time. I saw Hyatt Grand Cypress but too while I was looking. If we aren't going to be in the room a lot we wouldn't really care if the rooms needed...

    Trip Report The Most Magical Solo Momcation

    Hotel life alone is perfection! Did this while working COVID in a city a few hours from home. It was the BEST sleep!

    Waldorf Astoria, JW Marriott etc

    Looking for a nicer off property resort to take my husband to. He wants the golf experience. We don't have to stay at the exact golf location. He is planning to golf at Waldorf but Im not sure where else. We also have a dinning reservation at Bull & Bear. We are not opposed to locations a little...

    The one issue that sticks out to me the most was a jungle cruise malfunction. An animal's sensor I guess was off and sprayed my son (who was maybe 5 or 6 at the time) directly in the face. I was actually a little concerned because of the pressure hitting his eyes and probably dirty water. The CM...

    Controversy? Contemporary and Lyft/Uber

    I stayed at Bay Lake tower recently. I didn't see anyone do this but I know things are different right now due to COVID.

    Having the parks open late was what I missed more than hopping. We enjoy a mid-day swim break or quick rest and change of clothes on hot days. There is no time for that when parks close at 5,6,&7 with later opening times.

    I know that there were many people who complained about resort parking when it started. However, this never changed. I wish that I felt like a complaint to Disney would be taken seriously but I don't believe that it does. I had a couple issues while at the parks over the years but never got much...

    A sequel? Nah, not this one

    You are correct. Values shouldn't be $200. Even in peak times! Now take a depressed economy, pandemic, and extremely competitive pricing on better accommodations such as JW Marriott, Gaylord Palms, etc. I just got back from WDW a few weeks ago. My trip went well but I chose to rent DVC from a...

    Rides a little different?

    I told the cast member that I literally couldn’t see anything. I also usually enjoy this ride but the darkness killed it.

    Rides a little different?

    It was just myself, my son, and another family. I don't think they realized anything was wrong and they didn't speak English so I couldn't understand what they were saying. I was internally questioning what was going on and I just didn't want to get stuck in the dark!

    Rides a little different?

    I have had pauses on ToT too in the past but nothing like this. I am having a complete brain freeze on everything that was left out. I think the entire first part when the lights dim/ there's lightning/ and the people appear was missing. I don't recall any Stars/ window etc. Then there was a...

    For those that have been back in the last month... would love thoughts on quick service and taking a breather...

    I had luck eating inside at Satuli and Docking Bay 7 which were both air-conditioned. Mobile ordering was slightly hectic as many people crowd the area waiting for the green light to pick up their food. However, once inside it was fine. I didn't stick around too long because I people needed...

    Rides a little different?

    Forgive me if this has been a topic already... My son and I just came home from 4 nights in WDW. I noticed some changes in certain attractions. I am sure there's more but I can't remember right this moment. I am not complaining but didn't know what the intent was behind it. Are they trying to...

    Best face mask for touring WDW

    I have to wear N95s at work for 12-13 hours a day and I would NEVER wear one to a disney park. Yes, you will see this happening but I would never be able to enjoy my day. I wore some well made fabric masks purchased off of ETSY. You can find ones with pockets for filters for added protection if...

    Eating in the park

    I had no trouble sitting at any bench and drinking or eating as long as we were "stationary." Some relaxation areas were shaded or had umbrellas to block the sun which was nice. I do miss the days of walking and enjoying my coffee but it was nice to be seated and relax a few moments before...

    Solo travelers during Covid-19

    I wasn't solo but only took my 11 y/o son. I found that people, especially at the pool, were just as likely to strike up conversation. This was from 6 feet apart too! I also managed to do some accidental networking at the airport when I was solo. You will encounter some people who are afraid to...

    Feeling a little blah about food options...

    Very true! I love Sanaa and I love the wine (Pinotage) at AKL. I may try to snag a reservation.

    Feeling a little blah about food options...

    Forgot about Pecos Bills I do like that as a quick service option! May try Brown Derby as it has been a long time since I went there.
