    Good walking sandals for heavy women?

    I agree on the Keen Whispers! They are also waterproof so I got them wet with no issues, and they dried fast. I broke them in before I went, am on the heavier side as well, and they were great while there. Only one day did I have issues with my feet, and I don't think any shoe would have helped...

    No planning...just go??

    If we didn't pay so much to go, I would totally do this! We love doing things on the fly, but when we spend so much money to go, we like to be sure we get what we want so we plan ahead! I am sure it is totally doable, as we saw many people why we were there that seemed to be going around with...

    Selfie Sticks?

    We encountered people with selfie-sticks 3 times this past week during security check. 2 times it was confiscated, and one time they told them they had a choice: Place in a locker the person pays for, throw away, or return it to their car/resort first.

    Just back July 21-26

    You were there at the same time as us! We liked the new Soarin' and went on it three times this past week. However, you are right that most scenes were not the real deal. My daughter and others in our group traded with the jawas. They do love their shiny objects. My daughter traded a...

    Carousel of Progress

    We went on it twice while we were there this past week. It broke down the second time we went on it, and we were waiting about 20 minutes before it resumed. Maybe they need to grease the tracks a bit!

    How sturdy are Magic Bands?

    Our group of 12 that just went, one person had their's fall off, never recovered. Several of us had ours fall off of us suddenly without notice but we realized it immediately and grabbed it. The one who lost theirs just received a gray temporary one to use in its place from the front desk...

    Yet another water park question ;) is this a bad idea?

    We went straight from All Star Music Resort to both Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach, and then straight back. However, that was in the morning hours heading to them, and around 12-1pm heading back to resort. Never went to Disney Springs on either ride.

    We only went to Blizzard Beach that one time. It was busy right from the opening and got progressively worse till we finally left shortly after noon time. Typhoon Lagoon we spent from 9-1pm and the whole time it never felt overwhelmingly crowded. I am not sure if either of these is a normal...

    Sorry, no we didn't like it, but certainly got a kick out of our family reactions to it. I guess some people really like it. We were not among that crowd.

    Didn't know this. We didn't have one in a bag either. If there is a next time, which there probably will not be at a value, we will call.

    Our A/C at home is typically set to 60 so 68 was very warm for us. I guess it does vary based on person's comfort level.

    Anyone know why they're removing benches?

    We were often looking for places to sit this past week. In some locations that I would hope there was a bunch, there were none. Although, in Hollywood Studios a great place to relax is the the Backlot Express near Indiana Jones. It was a great place to unwind away from the major crowds...

    Good idea about Guest Services. We didn't experience this issue when we went last. I cannot recall if that was because there were less moving walk ways at that time, or if her issue with escalators/moving walkways hadn't developed. She has had the issue for as many years as I can remember...
