    Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

    This was us, too. Nothing on social media; only told immediate family and my boss (who wished us a great trip). We had an amazing time and no regrets, masks and 100 degree heat indexes and all. (By the end my brother said his favorite ride was "air-conditioning.") The teens loved it and it gave...

    Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

    We're currently at the parks and have had such a great week that my niece says she's never going to be able to come back because she's been so spoiled by no lines. Just to allay worries about wait times going up -- we haven't waited anywhere close to the posted times except for mine train, FoP...

    No More A La Carte @ Liberty Tree Tavern Lunch

    I'm so glad you said something! It's a family tradition, but it's the lunch menu that we loved. Going to cancel now.

    Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

    Woke up at 6 a.m. and thanks to this thread, got everything taken care of for our late July/Aug trip. (Just went to check one thing and got put in a waiting room.) I'm one of the ones who doesn't get regular emails from Disney. There is no way I would have been able to survive the park...

    Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

    We had a split stay and neither hotel was going to be open for our July dates :rolleyes1. (Truly, I can pick them.) Sharing in case helpful: After 2-1/2 hour wait, got a very nice CM who moved us from POR to CBR. Cost was a wash. (We did have to pay a bit to move from AKL Jambo to a Kidani...

    Good dishes at restaurants and other us tidbits

    We didn't make it to Antijitos -- and now I'm kicking myself. We're planning to go back for a long weekend in October, since Gringotts wasn't open in June. Will have to add that to the list. But the one place my husband has requested we go back to is Vivo. He got their homemade sausage. We also...

    Good dishes at restaurants and other us tidbits

    We always enjoy Mythos, but our favorite meal in June was the new Vivo in City Walk. They make their own mozzarella in-house and everything was so fresh and delicious.

    Ordering AP's online Fed Ex vs kiosk

    Thanks. In our case, it ended up being just a glitch, as I said, and we ended up having a fine time at the parks. But since the OP was debating about paying the FedEx fee, I wanted her to know that it was a possibility for things to go wrong at the kiosk, which given the crowds right now, could...

    Ordering AP's online Fed Ex vs kiosk

    We ran into a glitch at the kiosks in June: The computer wouldn't recognize the card we used to buy the APs. So two nice TMs tried to help us out. They found my husband's and son's APs but couldn't find me. After 15 minutes, they took us to Guest Relations, where we proceeded to wait an hour to...

    Thanks so much for posting! The menu looks great -- shrimp and grits are always a hit with our family.

    Do you do character meals with tweens?

    Our 12-year-old has zero interest in princesses but he requested Crystal Palace for breakfast, so that was going to be our only character meal in June. Then, they came out with Star Wars dining today... But we only have one child who counts as a Disney Adult. With more than one I can see how...

    Star Wars Character Meal

    Thank you so much for posting the tip! I had been on hold for over an hour on the dining line and got through on the other phone within 2 minutes. We're eating breakfast with Darth Vader!

    OKW or AK Standard/Savannah

    We stayed at OKW with our 10 year old and my parents a couple of years ago. The pool was great and we enjoyed the boat to DTD. But it's a really big resort and we were very far from the Hospitality House, with the main pool and the restaurant and shop. We didn't have a car until the last two...

    Is the 50's Primetime Cafe Still Fun For Family of Six?

    We've been twice: Once as a party of 3 several years ago and as a party of 9 in October. Hands-down, it was more fun with the bigger group. Our waitress was hilarious -- she scolded us for having toys at the table, and when my niece went to put away her stuffed Perry, she said, "Oh no, not...

    olivia's OKW

    We had breakfast for nine at Olivia's a week ago and had a great time. The eggs florentine and poached eggs and sweet potato hash were delish, and the kids had a great time scooping strawberries and cream onto their Mickey waffles. Plus, the staff was great -- they tracked down fresh blueberries...

    My MNSSHP experience- just back as well

    Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm really regretting buying our tickets for next month. At least this way, we can lower our expectations.

    Ack! Help! MNSSHP with 3 generations

    Thanks -- that's really good to know. We'll catch the Dwarves some other year. (I have an infinite number of cousins living in Florida and one gets married every fall.)

    Ack! Help! MNSSHP with 3 generations

    Hi! Are there any Halloween Party vets who wouldn't mind helping out a stressed out party planner? We're going to our first MNSSHP Oct. 28 with my folks, my DH, 10-year-old DS and two nieces (10 and 8). I'm originally from Orlando, so I know MK really well, but for some reason MNSSHP is...
