In London and Paris there are still pay to use toilets. In Epcot UK and France it is still free.

I am 20 minutes from Nashville. We have 12 three star hotels in our area in the $100 to $150 range. This is 4th of July weekend with the "guitar drop" fireworks. The 3rd biggest fireworks show in the US for July 4th.

I hear it is really hot right now......

I’m finally going to be at Disney in 24hrs. Can’t wait

From what I’ve seen a lot of thunder and rain right now. Am I very wrong. How hot is it

Our friend is moving to Watertown TN population 1K for the quiet retired life in their newly built home to a much cheaper COL. I think Nashville is the closest major city. I'm envious.

8.25 for a pretzel, and 6.50 for a mickey bar outrageous but the lemmings will pay and pay

Still less than ball park prices

Bring ponchos for the regular rain storms in the afternoon instead of buying the overpriced ones in the parks.

My brother lives 30 miles from Nashville. It takes well over an hour to get to Nashville due to I40 traffic! He says that people from Nashville are now buying up land and building all over his area, even in more remote places. All of the towns in that range around Nashville are having a property/housing boom, even with the long and frustrating drive to Nashville. There is more crime in Nashville now and only one of the reasons people are leaving Nashville in droves. Many parts of the town that were safe are not now.

Not at all pricey around Boston…I hear

And Newport as in the oldest “old money” town in North America? That Newport (which I love…by the way)

But New Hampshire!!

Food really hasn't gone up in the last 5 years to be honest.

Mickey Pretizel w/ Cheese in 2019 was 7.25, it's $7.79 now. 2019 prices are not adjusted for inflation.

So they were way above “inflation” before?

Right…what a deal

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

But New Hampshire!!

Right…eons from Boston

You know (or maybe don’t) that all of NE is pretty pricey. Lovely area…but the prices don’t translate to about 40 of the other 45 states in the country.

Disney hotels are overpriced. No real debate. The question is if people feel they are “worth it” to them?

When’s the last time you’ve been to a ballgame for 168 hours straight?

Seems like TN developers are pursuing opportunities to cash in. Some like our friend selling their 6 figure home in expensive Northeast and moving to rural TN ( at least for now ) to a newly built home to enjoy their golden years to escape the rat race.

Same county, different city. Watertown is a cute little town! Hope they like their new home.

We have the same problem here in SC N. Easters are moving here in droves driving up the housing market, and bring their NE attitude--visit please don't stay

You mean the place where you’re at for 2-3 hours and can reasonably plan to eat before or after, vs a place you’re at for most of the day?

That's us in the movie theatre. We eat a big meal before the show and have no desire to buy the overpriced theatre menu items. Similar prior to going in the parks in the AM, just lite meal during the day.

It's the end of June/beginning of July, in Florida. It is surface-of-the-sun-hot, with air you can swim through.
