    Riding Rides During Fireworks

    Just a heads-up. We were at the park tonight, and they blocked off all of the hub and Main Street before 7:30 and would not let ANYONE into any of the lands - they sent everyone backstage either side of Main Street. When you came back up Main Street, they sent you right backstage and to the...

    All New Picture of the Day Thread - July 26th 2014

    Thank you! That must have been amazing! Hopefully they’ll do something similar again soon.

    All New Picture of the Day Thread - July 26th 2014

    I know this was posted ages ago, but where was (is????) this? This is one of my favorite Christmas movie scenes of all time!

    Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge Dining - Oga’s + All Quick Service Food and Drinks

    They go even further back. I had an excellent selection for lunch on November 5th. I am ECSTATIC I was able to get our family a reservation!

    BOG dinner at 180

    I really never believed the "just keep trying, something may open up" line. I always thought it was just an empty platitude. But last night I was able to get a 4:40pm reservation for 3 for BOG on Saturday, May 14th. Yes, tomorrow! What worked for me was to just check the phone application...

    Labor Day Weekend like Columbus Day Weekend?

    I've been to WDW a number of times over the last few years, but thanks to a convention, I'll be making my first trip to DLR on Columbus Day Weekend. Thanks to the vast compendium of information here, I've learned that weekends (and holiday weekends in particular) are the times with the largest...

    Magic Band and FP+ Worked Great!

    Fiestymama - you'll have a great trip, I'm sure. If you've done even a minimal level of planning, the parks will give you all you can take in! Synderella - we actually stopped using the old FP- system because it just took much time out of the day. We rode the rides we could and went from...

    Magic Band and FP+ Worked Great!

    I was going to add this to the thread started by DisReno, but I think there need to be more positive threads in this forum, so I felt it better to start this as a new thread. First off, the FP+ system worked absolutely PERFECTLY for us. Yes, there was some planning involved in that (mostly...

    Any Other Maelstrom Lovers Out There?

    I was looking forward to Maelstrom for our upcoming trip when we were still in the planning stages. At first, one of our party members was afraid to try it, but they ultimately agreed (not a thrill-ride fan.) There's just something serene and calming about it, amid all the bustle of the park - I...

    Just booked FP+ for Maelstrom on 9/29

    Thank you all for the effort and information. Maelstrom is one of my top 3 at Epcot, and I was REALLY bummed to miss it this time. We were able to snag one for the 4th for our party, and I'm ecstatic! We'll need to plow through the mess of Food and Wine on a Saturday night, but it'll be worth...

    First-Timer FP+ Success Story!

    First off, I have to give my sister the credit - she got up early-ish and did all the work on the website to get us set up. Also, it's a 6-night/7-day stay, so we don't have a super-long trip to open up our booking window, and we're a 4-person group. We were able to get TSMM on our second...

    Do you think Disney should "police" drunken behavior better?

    My family and I were at the last Saturday of F&W in 2012, and I can comfortably assure you that the scent of vomit was pervasive throughout World Showcase. There were also large groups monopolizing the seating areas while one party member made a drink run for the (8-12 member) party. More than...

    DSLR users... which lens is most versatile for the parks?

    I just got back last night, and I did the superzoom-plus-prime solution. Being on full-frame Canon, I used the Tamron 28-300 during the day, and switched to the 35 f/2 for nights and indoor. I rented the 28-300, which was the best photography decision I've made in some time - its image quality...

    Rope Drop? I Say PM EMH

    I definitely have to agree with FmrCastMembr on this one. We've had AMAZING luck using the evening EMH at Magic Kingdom, but even with a party of three able-bodied adults (and no kiddos) early mornings just aren't in the cards. Once we're rolling though, late nights just kinda follow for us...

    Mission Space Question

    There is actually a very real reason why you feel queasy after Mission Space : Orange. Certain natural poisons cause your vestibular system (inner-ear equilibrium) to start reporting false or late information to your brain. Effectively, your eyes tell your brain you're experiencing one form...

    Official Fantasyland Expansion Q & A (Mickey gets evicted) PART II

    I just finished reading this thread from mid-2011 on. I was actually cheering for the mid-March crew when Dumbo opened on the 12th as hope. I literally said "YES!" out loud! Truly unbelievable effort here, everyone! We're going the second week of November, and I'm REALLY hoping Be Our Guest...

    Tell me more about Starring Rolls

    I had just learned about Starring Rolls here for our trip in 2010, and it was such a huge hit that it's officially a must-do for the one we're planning now. This and Sunshine Seasons are such a great departure from what you get everywhere else that we're all REALLY excited to go back there...

    Update on Wishes Dessert Buffet

    We're there for the 23rd, too. I'll PM you our name and party size so we can say hi!

    How is the food at Caribbean Beach?

    One of the blog entries over the summer was a review of Shutters, and the review suggested it was an abysmal dining experience. We stayed there last year with my mom, and she's spicy-food-phobic, sonar didn't try it. It didn't ever have many people in it, though it was October. The CS places...
