    Rental Car

    HI Everyone We are headed over for our first trip since 2019. I've always booked our cars in advance through Rentalcars.com and always had a good experience. Has anyone booked through them lately? They are offering a great price with Europcar. Thanks

    quantum of the seas escape room?

    Yes, we did it in February. It was exceptionally hard. As it was a 3 night sailing it was busy so we were joined up with several other families. I'm not sure if this is the way they usually do it. Everyone worked really well together. Definitely more of a puzzle room than an escape room.

    Royal Caribbean Makes a Dining Change That's More Severe Than Carnival's

    I'm not bothered by one lobster tail. One is enough. More than one seems wasteful to me. I never understood people eating multiple. One more maybe but 5 or 6 seems really over the top. I am a little disappointed in the lack of variety on the menu now the classics have gone. I'm not picky...

    What are you doing on boxing day?

    Absolutely nothing. For us its a day to recover from Christmas Day. Plus it was to hot to do much. We took the dogs for an early morning walk on the beach and a swim before it got busy. And the rest of the day was spent inside in the aircon.

    Was it just this one ship / worth another try?

    We've had also cruised Disney a few times before trying Royal. These are the only two cruiselines that we have cruised on and all our Royal cruises have been on Oasis Class ships (Oasis and Allure). We don't have any plans to go back to Disney after trying Royal. We found everything to be at...

    If you forgot to put money under the pillow from Tooth Fairy….

    Tooth came out after 4pm. It was too late for the Tooth Fairy to get us on the schedule for that night.

    Warner Bros Studio Tour and Harry Potter

    We did it in 2019. Absolutely loved it. I didn't feel there was a huge Harry Potter presence, but enough for a fan. We had just come from Universal Orlando so we weren't on the tour for that. I was a fan of Gilmore Girls but also felt it was more Pretty Little Liars focused. It was still...

    Do you need one? I never use mine. Just plug leads directly into the Switch.

    Do you HAVE to use mobile order?

    We are going to struggle with this. As overseas visitors we have no choice but to rely on the parks wifi which is really not good. We also travel with cash as we don't want to be hit with a foreign currency conversion fee everytime we use our card. It also helps us lock in an exchange rate...

    Which ADR’s to book first?

    We are going back a little while but the one we had the most trouble getting was Sci-Fi. Within an hour of booking we decided we wanted to change days and couldn't. Checked almost daily and had no luck.

    Which are good bars that also serve food? (parks, hotels, or Disney Springs)

    Absolutely the Nomad Lounge. Can't recommend it highly enough. Even our kids requested that we go multiple times. We are also excited to try Three Bridges.

    What would you do with $1.5 million? (spinoff)

    We are in Australia and we don't pay tax on winnings either. So it's a flat $1.5million for us. I'd pay off our mortgage which is relatively small and dh would retire. I would have to continue to work as we have 1 dd in University and 1 in highschool.
