I completely agree with your post. I don't want to spoil any kids' fun or imagination, but I do think it's still fun to meet the characters while still knowing they're not "real." I never went to Disney Parks as a small child (before 8) but I still knew the characters were people in costumes...

There are some popular characters I'm not crazy about. For instance, Mater, and not just because I dislike the Cars films in general. I actually try to avoid collecting stuff with Tink, Mickey & friends, or Winnie the Pooh & friends on it. They're just SO overdone and kind of disappointing when...

Booooo, there are only a few things a baby could even experience in WDW! :rotfl2: Your nephew (?) can totally think what he wants, and it's possible he wouldn't actually enjoy himself in WDW, but I tend to feel disappointed when people are close-minded about things that are supposedly for children.

I would love to see a fifth park opened later on if it has a solid theme, but I agree that Disney should focus on the current parks and creating new attractions or fixing the outdated ones. Personally, considering AK is younger than I am (I'm not that old!) and that it's not open late, I can...

I've only actually stayed at one Disney resort but I just love it: AKL! My mom and I were thrilled to see the animals so close, and they don't look like they're in depressing, tiny enclosures like at some zoos. I also adore the AKL lobby, which blew me away the first night I arrived there...

Okay, reservation officially made! My childhood self would cringe at the thought of me saying this, but I hope the summer passes by quickly! :cutie:

I didn't like Colton, though I appreciate that he definitely has a unique, clear musical style. It's just that I would avoid his music like the plague, especially the references to God, which just makes me uncomfortable. Elise was a great singer most of the time, but I wouldn't go out of my way...

That's a cute idea! I don't think I have enough room or time to make a giant link, but otherwise I would have fun with that. Someone else already mentioned watching a lot of Disney movies before their trip, and I think that's what I'll be doing as well: watching everything from the Disney...

I'm pretty sure the "Mongolian" area is just a grill for Asian stir fries and then some other items. There's nothing that should be unusual about the flavors, I believe. A tandoor is an oven with a fire inside, but I'm not sure if the proteins will have Indian spices or not. Also, I'm not sure...

About 3.5 months right now until my stay at AOA TLK. I've just consumed myself with Disney World info and planning these past couple weeks. I think I might be driving my mom and BF crazy with all this WDW talk. :rotfl2: I keep playing the soundtracks, too. My boyfriend had never left the...

Yeah, I think people are being too quick to judge what is presumably only a portion of the final LOF menu. Of course they'll have more common dishes like pasta and burgers! I doubt anyone's kid will have to resort to eating cauliflower or anything.:rotfl: But that said, it's also good when kids...

Neat video! I don't even think I've seen any concept art pics of Ariel/Ursula for the LM portion.

I have no plans to start a family for the next couple of years, but I do know a handful of people my age with children, so yes, consider me "child-free"! For now? My BF has never been to Disney World, but I think we'll both have a lot of fun there together. And honestly, I plan to return...

Awesome! I know a lot of the stuff I'll be eating is basically the vegetarian option anyway with the exception of cheese. When I started planning this trip, hearing about other vegans' experiences were extremely helpful. My mom, a diabetic, may also be eating a lot of vegetarian dishes that...

Hi all! I'm vegan and don't have any allergies that I know of, but I do tend to rely on products focusing on people with allergies because they obviously overlap with what I avoid. Even though I'm not GF, I will gladly eat GF products in WDW if they also are free of dairy and eggs. It just makes...

Counter-Service Vegan Options: Vegans will have to research options in Disney World before their vacation, but Disney can be quite accommodating. I'm determined to find food AOA's Landscapes of Flavor: *Possible vegan items: Not sure yet! I'm waiting for a menu to be released, like many...

ADRs!!! 8/19: Sanaa @ 8:00 *Possible vegan dishes: potato samosas with mango chutney, bread service, lentil stew, cauliflower, mango sorbet *Notes: - Has a vegan menu! :yay: 8/20: Brown Derby @ 1:25 *Possible vegan dishes: coconut-crusted tofu with rice noodles and sugar snap peas, and...

I agree that you should start with Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. I found that ride underwhelming myself, but Space Mountain was a bit more thrilling.

There were many new things I tried. To be honest, although I've been to WDW four times, I can't remember ever going to Frontierland or Adventureland in MK until my last trip 6 years ago. But, to be fair, I have usually had to cram my MK trips into a few hours. So yeah, Splash Mountain, Big...

Here's my very basic itinerary! ADRs to come next. I have planned the parks according to EMH, but I'm happy with the order as it turned out. For instance, I have always visited MK last, because I see it as the climax of my Disney trips, though it's not necessarily my favorite park. There are no...
