    The Wizarding World of Harry Potter

    Others have said this already, but I just called the main reservations line to ask about access to WWOHP given our specific reservation. I gave her our reservation number, she looked it up and said "Your reservation has already been flagged for exclusive access to the WWOHP." She explained...

    Why do you Jungle Cruise?

    Both rides are so much more fun at night! Though I always do them at least once during the day too. I still ride the Jungle Cruise at least once during the day and once at night if I can on each trip. It's all of the things you mentioned, but mostly the nostalgia factor for me and seeing my...

    WDW & Disneyland - Same trip?

    I say go for it! I took my first trip to DLR a few weeks ago and I'm leaving for WDW in four days. The two trips are quite different since the DLR trip was with two friends and no kids and the WDW trip is for me and my 4-year-old son. It's possible that doing both together would be less fun...

    Going to parks with a 4 year old

    I have to agree with this. I'm leaving in five days for a trip alone with my DS who will turn 4 next month. He's already reminded me a few times that I need to bring the stroller (this was after a very long day of back-to-school shopping when I didn't bother with one... he was exhausted...

    How early to get a waterside table at Blue Bayou?

    Oh, and the CMs at the front desk of BB on both days confirmed that 11:30 reservations are guaranteed waterside. Wish we'd realized that when my friend first booked the reservation!

    How early to get a waterside table at Blue Bayou?

    Just wanted to update you all! We got our waterside table and it was fabulous! Our reservation was for 11:50. The day before we asked the CM at the front desk at BB what the best strategy would be and she suggested showing up at 11:20 to put our names down and see what happens. So we...

    California Screamin' single rider line?

    Does Calif. Screamin' have a single rider line? Even now that it's operating on a limited basis for construction (opening at 1 pm)? Thanks!

    Spoil Honey I Shrunk the Audience for me, Please!

    I think I saw this show in WDW several years ago and I vaguely remember a huge snake on the screen and possibly a puffed air / seat effect that made you think the snake was loose in the theater. I am very afraid of snakes. I can handle watching it on the screen, but I do NOT want to...

    When do fastpasses run out?

    I just want to clarify that this isn't based on personal experience, just on what I've been able to glean from reading discussion boards and the like.

    When do fastpasses run out?

    I can take a crack at your question based on my research (we're going to be there at the same time). Crowds are likely to be bad on Thursday and worse on Friday. Space runs out first and fairly early - sounds like around 1 pm from what I've been reading. Splash runs out next, but maybe...

    YOAMD at DL

    I've seen some reports of how people have been "dreamed" at WDW, but haven't seen as many reports about DL. It sounds like at WDW a lot of the dreams are given out to people for being on a certain ride at a certain time, what about at DL? One of the friend's I'm travelling with heard that...

    How early to get a waterside table at Blue Bayou?

    Thank you all for your advice! The 11:30 reservations were booked, so we're stuck with 11:50. Sounds like getting there much before the reservation time won't really help since the waterside tables will all have started at 11:30 I guess I'll plan on checking in a bit early and then agreeing to...

    How early to get a waterside table at Blue Bayou?

    We have a priority seating reservation for 11:45 at the Blue Bayou and we want to do whatever it takes to get a waterside table. I've read on a trip report here that the wait was an extra hour for waterside. What if we get there well before the reservation? At what time do they start taking...

    Planning Disneyland and haven't been for

    I'm planning my first trip, so I'm certainly no expert, but I've sought out lots of advice and the consensus seems to be that for most people it's not worth the extra money to stay in the DLR hotels (other hotels are just as close and the theming isn't quite as good at DLR hotels as at WDW...

    If you could work at WDW..

    Haunted Mansion all the way! But what I really want to be is an imagineer.

    Have you been on both versions of M:S ?

    Sorry to hijack the thread, but how does the line work for the two sides? If I want to ride orange but the rest of my group wants to ride green, will we be in line together or separately? We'll probably fastpass it.

    Does your child go to sleep w/ you in the room? Do you go to bed early?

    Since you still have some time before you go, you could do something I've done with both of my kids. Though I should warn you that it can become addicting and can be a pain to tote the thing with you on every trip. Anyway, knowing that I'd be taking my son to visit my parents frequently and...

    Just back from Pirates At World's End!

    Just chiming in to say that I also thought the third movie was much better than the second. Would be as good as the first, but there's nothing like seeing Jack Sparrow for the first time.

    Whats the WORST thing you've ever seen at Disney ...

    Ah, but that's the joke, isn't it? The "scheduled" show is Mickey's, but then Donald takes over. It's really pretty clever!

    Which parks best for 2 year old?

    My son was 2.5 on our last trip. We had 3-day park hoppers. Spent two mornings at MK, one morning at AK, one afternoon at MK, one afternoon at MGM and one afternoon at Epcot. Here are his reactions: MK, of course, was a hit. Loved all the Fantasyland stuff, Indy Speedway, Tomorrowland...
