    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Agree with this. It seemed like many of the rides were offline at various points, so it could be easy to miss an opportunity to ride if you happen to be in line for something else when they go back online. And even with express pass, some waits seemed crazy at times. I think it might have been...

    Really great info, thanks! That makes sense.

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    We're here now and I concur with what you've said. We're on our second day at Epic and really enjoying it. We took a chance on our first day and decided to do Ministry first, even though it was not set to open til 10. We're staying at RPR so we have early entry. We also bought Express Pass for...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    No you're not! I feel like Dark Universe and Harry Potter could be amazing at Halloween. We're going to be there in early September, so I'm sure that's too early to see Halloween decorations.

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    I'd like to know this too. It's the ride I've been looking forward to the most, but a lot of spinning would render it a no-go. Love coasters, hate spinning. (Love Forbidden Journey, btw - if it's similar to that.)

    I hope so! Early September is when we're going! :D

    I would have loved that, since we're going for 6 nights.

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Haha, I booked a couple of months ago, after seeing a post from someone who mentioned the prices were likely to just continue going up. We're staying at the Royal Pacific, and I didn't think the prices were bad at all when I booked, especially considering Express Pass, although I'm sure EP won't...

    Hmm, we're booked September 2025, but you have me re-thinking that!

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    I came across a meme a few months ago that referenced the beginning of the pandemic when learning was mostly remote, and parents were complaining that they were now responsible for their child's curriculum and had never been trained for that (hint: they weren't responsible for the curriculum-...

    Still waiting. I ordered on January 19. Three people that I work with ordered theirs the same day or within a day and got their test kits within a week.

    This is true for me, too. I had started doing grocery pickup before the pandemic, but it obviously became much more of a habit during. It's cheaper and quicker. Cheaper because much less impulse buying, lol.

    That's wonderful that your district has enough subs to cover teachers who are out sick. Many districts are not in the same situation. My district is certainly not pressuring us to come to school sick, and we have not had to take a two-week adaptive pause, as numerous districts around us have had...

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    As a teacher I can tell you that there are parents sending their students to school with symptoms. I had a student throw up in my class on Wednesday. He tested positive. He told the nurse he'd had a headache since Monday, but his mother had given him Tylenol. This happens over and over. Since...

    Genie+ vs. Lightning Lane confusion?

    I don't want to hijack the thread, but wow...so much of this was us. We almost always stayed at Epcot resorts just so we could zip into World Showcase for dinner...even if it was just counter service. Those were the days! (er...wasn't that a song title? :D) And your last paragraph...I have a...

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    No, it was primarily a ride-rationing tool because Disney does not have enough capacity.

    Genie+ vs. Lightning Lane confusion?

    Wow...all of this! This was my experience as well. Our first trip was in 1996, and we went 10-12 times in the 15 years following. Most of the time as a family (or with extended family), but a couple of times it was just my husband and me. We loved it. Our last trip was in 2011 or 2012, I think...

    I wish I could say that had worked in my school district. Obviously, I don't have personal knowledge of every school in our district, but at my building, the same ones who were getting tested when the requirement started a few months ago are still getting tested. It actually seems like they're...
