    looks like they have made some changes to the RAT and website

    I got this same message when I tried to book an 8-day reservation at the 7-month window, although the message I got was saying I couldn't reserve it until August 15 and it was after 8 am on August 15. When I changed the reservation to 7 days, it went through fine. It would be helpful if there...

    How can I watch the Wishes live stream on my TV?

    Thank you for these suggestions. I don't have Apple TV or a chromecast. I'll have to check if my computer has an HDMI port. Meanwhile, if anyone has had success getting the Disney Parks Blog on their smart TV any other way, I'd love to hear about it!

    How can I watch the Wishes live stream on my TV?

    Hi Everyone, I was excited to read about the live stream of Wishes tomorrow night at 8:55 on the Disney Parks Blog, but it seems very anticlimactic to gather the family around the little laptop screen to watch it. I have a Roku TV and also a wifi-enabled DVD player. Is there a way to pull up...

    Don't Bother with Sun Pass or renting a transponder from the rental car companies!

    Hi Everyone, I'm traveling down to Florida and since I'll be staying in both Orlando and St. Pete's Beach, I looked into the cost of getting a SunPass for the car I'm renting. Alamo will rent me a Sunpass transponder for $3.95 per day, plus the cost of any tolls. If I wanted to buy a SunPass...

    Alternatives to Expedition Everest Challenge?

    Hi Everyone, The dates of the GlowBash wouldn't work for me, so I signed up for the ColorBuzz on 1/30/2016 in Tampa. I found my first 3 items from the list above. I guess I'm going to settle for less if the Expedition Everest Challenge isn't coming back. Link for the ColorBuzz here...

    Alternatives to Expedition Everest Challenge?

    Hi Everyone, I found one race that sounds interesting called the Glowbash 5k. It is a night race with a scavenger hunt. They need to update their website, but it looks like the St. Petersburg race will be March 12. I included a link below as well as some reviews of Glowbash races...

    Alternatives to Expedition Everest Challenge?

    Hi Everyone, I am still REALLY depressed about 2015 being the last year for the Expedition Everest Challenge. I live in NH and my best friend lives in Tampa, so the race was a great chance for us to hang out for a weekend. I'm looking for alternatives to the EEC. I don't see Disney offering...

    Expedition Everest Challenge 2015 - EEC 2015

    Hi Everyone, I was sad about this year’s EEC being the last one, but after I had such an incredibly good time, I feel even MORE depressed! I felt like the scavenger hunt clues were considerably harder than last year’s, and the volunteers were not giving many hints! I actually liked that...

    Expedition Everest Challenge 2015 - EEC 2015

    Hi Everyone! The weather forecast for this weekend looks much better than last year's, thank goodness! My teeth were chattering after I rode Kali River Rapids at midnight last year. Has anyone gotten any info on the race course this year? I found the map pasted below at WDWInfo, but I'm not...

    Expedition Everest Challenge 2015 - EEC 2015

    Hi Mieuxmew (nice spelling, BTW)! I haven't seen the medal or T-shirt, but I believe there are 500 people per corral based on my corral placement last year (#1807, corral D) and reports of other people's corral placements. It sounds like you'll be in corral B. I hope you're able to overcome...

    Expedition Everest Challenge 2015 - EEC 2015

    Hi Everyone! I'm not sure why people are disappointed about "lack of buildup." I understand some people have reported disappointment about responses to RunDisney emails and updates to the EEC website, but all of that could be a result of poor productivity on the part of one IT person! I think...

    Expedition Everest Challenge 2015 - EEC 2015

    Sunshine girl, I just saw your post about the cheerleading event May 1-3. It is giving me flashbacks of karaoke at Kimonos last year. At some point (I think it is 11 pm) Kimonos kicks out everyone under 18, but up until then there were a lot of groups of pre-teen cheer girls singing angry...

    Expedition Everest Challenge 2015 - EEC 2015

    Hi Everyone, I sent an email to RunDisney a few days ago when the dates for the 2015 EEC had been listed on the WDW page but not the RunDisney page. I received an automated response from RunDisney yesterday which had the following information: Thank you for contacting the runDisney team...

    Karaoke at Kimonos?

    I did Karaoke at Kimonos in May 2014. I showed up around 9 pm, and the place was PACKED with people. The restaurant itself is rather small, but in a long and narrow kind of way, with the karaoke stage right next to the entrance to the restaurant. It draws a 30-50 year old crowd, mostly...
