    Disney Apps

    Have MDE, DMM and Lines on my phone. When we were at WDW last month, used Lines the most by a huge margin

    EasyWDW or Touringplans crowd calendar?

    I agree with the PP that said predictions are just that - predictions. I use TP/Lines but that is a personal choice. Been using them and the UG for the last 18 years and they've worked well for us.....

    AAA fireworks viewing....only with dining package?? Since when?

    We went last month and booked thru AAA. But we also booked on the Stay, Play and Dine plan. The Wishes viewing area, with the exception of being next to a designated smoking area, was a good perk....

    Backpacks vs. Fanny Packs

    Last month my wife and I used back sacks. Cameras, hats, ponchos, extra socks and fleece vest or jacket (it can get downright chilly after dark) - fanny pack just wouldn't cut it. As for our KTTW, cash, etc - I had them in my Witz Surf Safe case under my shirt that I use on cruises....

    Biggest park peeves?

    I agree - its frustrating when people stop and sit in the middle of the row despite the dozens of announcements telling you not to And I hate getting rammed, run over or cutoff by strollers without so much as an "excuse me"!

    BOG reservation -- early or late A few Q:'s

    If you prefer RD, leave for rest break and return, I would go with the later rezzie - 4:55 is too soon after our normal lunch time. We prefer to eat late when on vacation anyways.

    Hollywood Studios Restaurant Recommendations?

    Both 50's PT and Sci-Fi are great. I prefer the food at Sci-Fi (personal preference as I'm a burger kinda guy!) but the ambiance is very cool 50's PT is a lotta fun with the CM interactions and homestyle comfort foods.

    Planet Hollywood ADR?

    Yes you can.

    CS Restaurants in Hollywood Studios

    My choice for CS ABC Commissary is HORRIBLE! Starring Rolls closes at 4pm and its not uncommon for them to run out of food before then! IMHO, DHS has the poorest CS choices of all the parks.

    Pizza Planet or Starring Rolls for SUPPER at DHS?

    I agree with the PP that the pizza at Pizza Planet is nothing to write home about - on par with Pizzafari at AK, and Starring Rolls closes at 4pm (too bad, too!) DHS is sorely lacking in the CS department - Min & Bill's and Backlot Express are OK if you just need to fill your belly. Stay...

    Any Suggestions for Dinner for 2?

    Wife and I went to Disney last month just the two of us - ate at Wolfgang Puck Express in DTD, Kona Cafe, Boma - A Taste of Africa at AKL and Monsieur Pauls at the France Pavilion. Enjoyed all of our meals But....what does your husband mean by "trying something new"? How adventurous is he...

    Best time to get in line-BOG lunch

    Found it to be quite the opposite. We were there last month on the day before MLK day - a 7 on the crowd calendar (but more like an 8!). Went there for lunch at 12:15-ish - the line was over the bridge and halfway to Gaston's fountain. CM's were telling everyone a 90 minute wait from that...

    Trip Insurance

    We use either InsureMyTrip.com or Squaremouth.com - you can find just as good, if not better insurance cheaper. The only issue you might have is with pre-existing conditions....

    Keeping your smart phone going thru the day....

    The Ankers, Trents and similar are external battery packs that you plug into your phone's recharging port. You can use the phone as it recharges - my Anker kept me going for two days before I had to recharge it. And the only issue is that more and more phones are going to batteries that...

    A few observations

    Given that BOG is new and probably the best place in the MK to get a meal, it should not be surprising that the lines are long for lunch. However, they do move quickly. Got in line on MLK day around 12:15 for lunch - the end was over the bridge and halfway to Gaston's fountain. Even though...

    Weather Forecasts?

    If I had to choose a weather forecast, I would go with the one from the local meteorologist

    Best Time of Day for Epcot World Showcase

    WS doesn't open until 11am which is the reason it was/will be quiet/ dead.
