I like the pink. It reminds me of the paint job on Le Chateau de la Belle au Bois Dormant in Disneyland Paris (which is a gorgeous castle), only a little more muted. I think the different tones between the “first” level of the castle and the “second” make the architectural details pop a little...

I have a feeling that this Is a moot point right now. If someone’s health is poor enough that they’d qualify for the Make-A-Wish program, their doctor is likely still strongly discouraging any serious travel. While there are a lot of people are questioning how dangerous it really is out...

This is my understanding of the situation too. You can’t offer a product if there’s a good chance that a significant number of the people who have it will be unable to use it because the table service restaurants have slashed their capacity. We don’t know yet just by how much capacity at TS...

Anaheim is part of the Greater Los Angeles area. It may not be quite as big as Shanghai, but it’s plenty big enough (18 million people!) that following making a great distinction between it and HK and Shanghai because it’s technically not quite as big seems like a risky strategy. Orlando is a...

The problem with comparing the US to individual European countries is that we’re significantly bigger in terms of our population and landmass. Our peak is likely to last longer because different regions will be hitting their peaks at different times. It’d be much better to look at the state...

I live in Oklahoma and we have a shelter-in-place order right now. I have a job where I still need to go into work a few times a week, and while traffic is much lower than it was two weeks ago, there are still a lot of cars on the road and the parking lot of practically every store that is...

I watched the Fourth of July Fireworks near this location (just past the gateway into New Fantasyland) and agree it's wondrous! Maybe the best fireworks experience I've had anywhere! If Holiday Wishes had more castle projections, watching it in front of the castle would be a no brainer, but...

I suspect you're right on this one. You might get lucky and get connecting rooms, but Pop is likely to be at full (or nearly full) capacity during your dates. If there aren't many people checking out that day, they'll have a harder time fulfilling your request. Doesn't mean it's impossible...

For a $230 difference, I’d stay at ASMu unless you are just in love with the theming of AoA and/or its pool.

I think ultimately it depends on whether the huge price difference matters to you. I've never stayed at BWI, but I've stayed at two other Epcot resorts (Yacht Club on someone else's dime, and at the Dolphin pre-resort fee and with an insanely cheap rate) and absolutely loved staying in this...

So am I correct by guessing from the tone in this topic that if you all were planning vacations during party season you would choose to do the MK on a party day? I’m currently planning a trip for the end of November/beginning of December and was planning on doing the MK on one of the two...

The Disney Springs buses connect to and from the resorts all day long. It's the one-way-only buses that run from the parks to Disney Springs that don't start until after 4pm. It's true that getting to the parks from Disney Springs takes more planning, though some parks are easier to reach...

I'm a big fan of Citricos so I think eating there is a great idea. I've eaten there on 4 occasions and every meal was delicious. That said I wouldn't completely cross California Grill off your list of possible fireworks viewing locations. I read on the official Disney Moms Panel blog that you...

That’s not how probability works. If there’s a 10% chance of a restaurant having a bad night, that doesn’t mean that for every given 10 day stretch they are guaranteed to have one and only one bad night. It means that every single night, there’s a 10% chance that it will be bad. Under those...

Citrico’s. It’s one of my favorites on property. Never had anything but a great meal there.

I'm the same way! I realize that for a lot of people, the fat marbling for Rib Eyes are what makes it a desirable cut of meat but I don't enjoy chewing on grilled fat (fatty braises like short ribs are fine though!). A lean top sirloin is actually my favorite (not as tender as a filet, but...

Honestly given your proximity to WDW, your familiarity with the parks, and the general safety of the resort, I would think Disney would be a totally ideal place for you to dip your toe in to experience the joy of solo travel. So long as you’re not staying at some seedy dive off property, safety...

I'm going to be at WDW with 4 year old niece and 3 year old nephew in 2 weeks, and my nephew really wants to see some dinosaurs and dragons while we're there. The dinosaur request is easy to fulfill since we'll be spending a day in Animal Kingdom, but I wasn't sure where I could find dragons...

Even as much as I love the MK, I understand what you mean. I remember visiting both WDW and DL as a little kid and preferring DL to the MK. WDW has a lot more going for it as an entire resort, but if we're comparing apples to apples I think Disneyland Park beats out the Magic Kingdom in terms...

DHS for sure. I just hate being there even though this park has two of my favorite rides (TSM & ToT). If the lines for TSM weren't so awful I might like this park better because at least then I could stand to ride my favorite ride more than once or twice a trip. When getting to ride the ride...
