    At Disney World now, things have been great so far!

    Staying at Old Key West for the first time, which we love. I was expecting more trouble wit the buses regarding wait times but they have been fantastic. I used the Easy WDW schedule which worked out yesterday. Saturday night we arrived at MK around 7:00 and did Big Thunder Mountain (with a...

    Attractions you have done alone

    I have ridden numerous rides alone, either because everyone else was scared or because I headed alone to one of the parks while my family slept during EMH. I've done Expedition Everest, Rock and Roller Coaster, Tower of Terror, Pirates of the Caribbean, Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain and...

    Favorite Disney Moments

    There is something about Disney that I can't quite put my finger on which makes it different than anywhere else. Our 4th trip is coming up in a week and Inwas thinking back to some of my favorite moments. In 2008, first morning at MK, watching my daughters, then 6 and 3,interact with...

    Expedition Everest Yeti

    No. I remember it specifically. It was definitely working just as I in footage I had seen. This is why I was so disappointed in 2010 and 2012. I can barely even spot the "disco Yeti.)

    Expedition Everest Yeti

    I saw it working in 2008. Looks like I got lucky!

    Was Avatarland really the best idea?

    I think a Star Wars theme park would be very do-able and would have the audience to sustain it. You could have different themed "lands" based on planets: Tatooine, Hoth, Coruscant, Dagobah etc.

    How does lunch BOG FastPasses work?

    Is that the 12 digit number under the band on the magic band section of the MDE app? If so, I have tried that. It doesn't work. Mine is all numbers but some others in my party have some letters in theirs. Weird. I've also tried my resort confirmation number, which is much longer. Still all...

    How does lunch BOG FastPasses work?

    I've got all of that. That is why I called Disney to ask why my confirmation number wasn't working. That is when I was told I would have to be currently checked into the resort and receive an e-mail invitation before I could do anything.

    Was Avatarland really the best idea?

    It was a huge movie and I'm sure the sequels will do well. However, I'm not certain that it has the draw and iconic status to pull this move. It is a huge risk by Disney, IMO. Was it a knee jerk reaction to Harry Potter over at Universal? I know at the time this decision was made Disney did not...

    How does lunch BOG FastPasses work?

    I was told when I called Disney that these FastPasses could be set up only after we checked into our hotel and even then it was by e-mail invitation only. It was possible we wouldn't even get and invite. But am seeing posts where people are scheduling them as late as May who are obviously not...

    Expedition Everest Yeti

    I'm sure this has already been discussed to death but are they ever going to fix it? My first Disney trip it was working and EE was absolutely my favorite ride because that working Yeti was absolutely awesome. It is still a great ride but the stationary Yeti definitely takes a lot out of it...

    SpectroMagic Parade

    Wow. That's too bad. I wish they would have been better taken care of. That was my favorite parade at Disney. Thanks for the info.

    SpectroMagic Parade

    Do you know why? Seems odd to just do away with it forever.

    SpectroMagic Parade

    Will this parade ever return to MK? The first two times we went to Disney (2008, 2010) it was there and we loved it. I much prefer it to the Main Street Electrical Parade. Are they currently running it at Disneyland?

    FastPasses for Parades, Fireworks etc.

    Do FastPasses for events and shows count against your 3 FastPasses for the day for rides or are they considered separate like the BOG FastPass? Thanks!

    Be Our Guest Fast Pass

    Hi! Heading to Disney in a couple of weeks and I found out I can get a Fastplass Plus for BOG. I went to the site and logged in but it keeps saying my reservation ID does not match the name on the account. What exactly is my reservation ID? I tried plugging in both the ID number above my...

    Resort Hopping

    We are heading to Disney in about two weeks, staying at Old Key West. Will we be able to visit other Disney resorts in our car (my kids love the food court at FQ) or do you have to take the Disney bus or have dining reservations to do so? Thanks!

    Old Key West Resort, Visiting Other Hotels

    Hi! We will be staying at Old Key West Resort next month. The past two times we have gone we have stayed at Port Orleans French Quarter. How is the bus service at OKW as opposed to French Quarter? I understand there are several stops and waits can be very long. We have a child who is...
