    Very Merry Fantasy Cruise Nov 28th 2021!

    Howdy! I'm Beth & I'll be sailing with my hubby - his first DCL cruise, my second (first time on the Fantasy, however). My sister texted me about this cruise the day they dropped & I said "Thanks but I don't think he'll go for it." I told him about it later, and he asked (however stupidly, lol)...

    Video Idea - Disney Jobs for Retirees

    Back in the late 80s to early 90s, my grandma worked wardrobe at Studios. They worked with her on her hours so she didn't screw up her social security payments. She loved working there.

    To rent a car or not?

    Well... We've decided not to rent the car, for better or for worse. It is what it is. I'll be at Disney, doing the trip I wanted to do. It's all good! Thank you all for taking the time to offer your thoughts!

    To rent a car or not?

    Parking fees don't apply - we are DVC. Looks like a car will run about $130 for the weekend (plus gas & tolls). Divided 4 ways, that's not horrible. Really. But I'm trying to keep an open mind for others' points of view. I'm the most experienced Disney traveler in the group so I'm trying to...

    To rent a car or not?

    Hello, all. Headed down Nov. 21-24, staying AKL Kidani with 3 friends. The purpose of the trip is MVMCP, viewing resort holiday decorations and heading to USO for a day. I'm inclined to rent a car, but one of my friends seems inclined not to. If we don't rent a car, we'd use DME to/from MCO...

    Poll: Your Riviera Resale price

    I would have to see it and likely even stay there first. As it stands today, because of the resale restrictions, I wouldn't even consider it - not direct and not resale. Maybe staying there would change my mind, but I doubt it.

    "Official" 2019 Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party: Oh-So-Jolly Holiday Celebration

    I've got a 2br villa booked at BLT for the weekend before Thanksgiving. We'll be hitting MVMCP one night and heading to USO/IoA one day. Is there a crowd difference between Friday and Saturday nights at the party? TIA for any help!

    What type of cast member would you be?

    I was a monorail pilot back in the day (late 80s, early 90s). Loved that job! I did housekeeping for a couple years in the early 90s as well (bw monorail stints). I could do that job again too, but wouldn't necessarily want to. I don't think I could do guest relations. I'm a little too...

    Restaurant recs for 20th anniversary dinner?

    Thanks, everyone! I appreciate all the feedback! As for how far we're willing to drive? I don't know. This will be our first visit - no idea of what the area is like. I'd love to see more than just Aulani and/or the tourist spots. We will have a car, so I'm open to all options.

    Restaurant recs for 20th anniversary dinner?

    Dh & I will be at Aulani in April, celebrating our 20th anniversary. I'm starting to think about dining reservations, etc. I'd like to go someplace nice for our anniversary dinner. Ama Ama is on my radar, for sure. But I'm wondering what some other options might be. We'll have a car, so...

    Magic of the Park - Mark Twain Riverboat

    Very well done! Thanks for sharing it here. :) I did watch the show, but likely wouldn't have gone in search of the video.

    Website issue

    Yep. I went on at 8am to book my Aulani trip. Had to borrow some points to make the reservation happen. Got all the way to the point where you click that you've read the terms of service before confirming, took the time to glance over the terms of service & the site erred out. Go back to try...

    What about a podcast of renting a DVC ?

    There is a dvc related podcast out there. Don't recall the name, but Google will tell you.

    How many can not wait for Tuesday's show each week.

    Yep, I look forward to it every week & miss it when it's not on. Not sure, quite frankly, if it helps my Disney wanderlust, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do!

    Jodi Benson performs at the DIS 20th Anniversary.

    Thank you for sharing! As someone whose travel dollars are spent for the next 2 years & couldn't possibly have gotten there to see this, I really appreciate a view into the celebration!

    Longest you've gone without using your points

    We were last there in April of this year. Next up is an Aulani trip for our 20th anniversary. In order to make that happen, we'll have to bank & borrow. I'm thinking it'll be a spring/early summer trip in 2018. So 2 years. I'm feeling it already.
