    Any recent reviews of Karmel Shuttle?

    We had a very good experience using Karmel a few weeks ago to and from SNA. While a bit more expensive than the taxi or an uber, it was totally worth it for us. The communication was exceptional, the vans were clean and drivers were very nice and drove safely and didn't make me nervous (which...

    Side of mashed potatoes? Scrambled eggs? Need soft foods.

    I can confirm that you can get a side of mashed potatoes at Flo's. You just cannot order them moblie order. You have to get them in person and wait in line. You can get gravy on the side as well and a side of their mixed veggies. It doesn't show on the menu but just ask the cashier when they...

    Grand Californian Super Thread

    About an hour total from exiting our room to being back up in it. The longest part was merging with all the upper floors who were also coming down the emergency exit stairs. Then we were ushered into DTD/esplanade area for about 15 minutes and then back to the hotel. The tricky part was...

    Grand Californian Super Thread

    While I thought about requesting that area, I did not, so just got lucky. And those elevators are fast, like you never had to wait, like ever. The view was of the courtyard and we would've had a great monorail view had it been running. As for the Fire Alarm, no, we never heard what the issue...

    Birthday button pixie-dust anecdote + brief report and map offer

    We were in the park on Sunday as well, and I was wondering if our paths might cross. My family was staying onsite and were there for EE and rope dropped at 7:30. We went right to Fantasyland and I glanced at the Rope Drop area to see if I could try to figure out if you were there or not to say...

    Grand Californian Super Thread

    Follow up observations from our recent visit to GCH. 1. We LOVED our room location!! It was very cool to have a welcome banner with our family's name on the tv as we walked in. We had a Woods/Courtyard view, room 4403. So close to the Napa elevators. We clocked it at 3 minutes from GRR to...

    Indy strategy

    In our experience, with the exception of rope drop or right after fireworks, PP is always busy (around 30 min) all day long, which isn't a terribly long wait overall. However, it always seems longer than 30 minutes because the line moves so slowly and most of the line is not under cover from...

    August Refurbs List

    We will be there 12th - 15th and I am hoping for a bit of pixie dust and that TSMM opens back up a few days early. 🤞🤞🤞

    Indy strategy

    You mentioned trying to ride more than once, and if Indy is still running it's single rider line, that's an excellent way to ride multiple times. Last time I was there they were, but not sure about recently. Maybe someone whose been there recently can speak to that. We will be there starting...

    What would be your prefect/dream dining reservations & quick serve for 5 days(or really any days)

    Can't go wrong with any of the above suggestions! A few of our family fav's are: 1. Flo's - we find the prices and food to be good and love getting a table outside and watch RSR ride go by. The cobb salad is large and filling and only $11.99, club sandwich is also good. Kids love the...

    Current wait times vs. posted times

    Good info everyone! Ever since they started Genie+ I wondered if the times might be inflated to promote purchase of the plan. I also realize there are many daily variables as well that affect the wait times. I guess I really miss the fastpass/maxpass days, we had those plans so well figured...

    Current wait times vs. posted times

    I was wondering if anyone who has been to the parks recently can comment on the current wait times vs. posted wait times. Our last trip we found that many of the posted times seemed inflated. I remember looking at a line at BTMR and saying, no way is this a 40 minutes line, this is a 20 min...

    Grand Californian Super Thread

    I have enjoyed browsing this thread preparing for our upcoming trip to GCH in August and appreciate the great tips and advice from all who have posted! I have a couple questions that I'd love some input on. We have stayed at the GCH before in a Standard room, which was better than we expected...

    Cafe Orleans - best time of day?

    We've been there during several different times of the day and honestly, all of them have been fine. There has always been ample shade outside and it is a great place to people watch.

    Might be a silly question about DLH package but...

    Agree with all the above. We book through Costco and it is the same deal. Once you link your reservation confirmation number to your disney account, it will show your hotel info and will give you the option to make your park reservations (as long as you are within the 120 days). It's simple...

    Lamplight Brunch or GCH Grill Lunch?

    We loved Craftsman grill! We were a party of 5 and found they had a much larger selection of items to choose from and we all tried something different and all of it was excellent. As other posters have said, there is plenty of seating, inside and out, and no reservations needed. It's more...

    Rise of the Resistance BOARDING GROUPS Superthread Part 2 *No Ride Spoilers Please* *PLEASE READ POSTS 1-3*

    We were successful getting boarding groups both times we tried on our recent trip. First day we got boarding group 54 which was called around 10:00 and we basically only were held up in the line for the CM's to scan us in, otherwise walked through at nice pace and on the ride shortly after...

    Avengers Campus Superthread – Opening June 4, 2021!

    We had quite good luck and got them both times we tried at 7:00 am. The first time we got boarding group 26, which was called about 9:00 and was almost a walk on. We only waited outside the building for about 5 min before we entered and went into the pre-show area. The second try we got group...

    Masks back at DL starting July 30

    I think you are correct with this. My guess is masking will be as far as this goes.
