    French Dip at BOG

    Ate lunch there yesterday. The French Dip and turkey sandwiches were both excellent. The meats are hot on untoasted, room temperature baguettes. The bread was great - not too hard but sturdy enough to hold up to the meat. The meats are thickly sliced (not deli meat) with good flavor. My son also...

    Have you ever mistaken someone's else car for your own car?

    No, but I was sitting in the parking lot at Lowe's a couple of weeks ago finishing a text and a woman opened the passenger side front door and had one foot in the car before she realized she had the wrong car. Her husband was in my rear view mirror laughing hysterically!

    *******Official August 2017 Countdown Thread ~ Feeling hot, hot, hot!!!******

    Just got home last night. Wait times were very manageable. And we found them to be consistently lower than listed on MDX - if it was listed at 20-25, it was usually more like 10-15.

    Coronado Springs expansion

    I'm not sure about that, but when I booked in November for mid/late August, there were no preferred rooms available to book. They may have planned to have two of them closed during that time. (???)

    *******Official August 2017 Countdown Thread ~ Feeling hot, hot, hot!!!******

    Did FPs this morning. Six days worth took about 10-15 minutes. The earliest for FOP on day 5 of our trip was 1:50 PM.

    Disney's CONTEMPORARY RESORT Information & Questions

    I also like Contempo Cafe. It is much smaller than the food courts at some other resorts, which have giant, sprawling areas with multiple queues and counters. The seating area is also much smaller - more like a cafe than a food court.

    On Thursday, log on a few minutes early, about 5:45 AM EST. Be sure that you are logged on to your account, have a credit card on file (this will save time later), and go to the page of your most challenging reservation to get. When the clock hits 6AM, refresh your page and the reservations will...

    *******Official August 2017 Countdown Thread ~ Feeling hot, hot, hot!!!******

    Our day was yesterday. Everything was smooth and I was done in 15-20 minutes. No IT issues at all. We had to go 30 minutes earlier than planned on our first day, but everything else was as planned.

    Disney's CORONADO SPRINGS RESORT Information & Questions

    When considering keeping our August reservation, this was our main concern: that the walkway from Cabanas to El Centro will be gone and we'd need to walk around the lake. We decided to stick it out because we figured we could just get breakfast at Siestas and not need to walk to El Centro too...

    Disney's CORONADO SPRINGS RESORT Information & Questions

    We just had the same conversation about our August trip. Our ADR day is Monday. CSR won us over last year. We're in, too.

    Disney's CORONADO SPRINGS RESORT Information & Questions

    We were in Casitas 3 last April and wouldn't have imagined that a refurb was needed. The toilet/tub area may have been kind of outdated, but everything worked well and everything else about the room was great.

    I haven't heard rumors of future plans, but someone at CSR now just posted photos of mugs ("cups?") without handles.

    Disney's CONTEMPORARY RESORT Information & Questions

    I'm a big fan of the GW. It's the least expensive deluxe monorail option, but the rooms are large enough for 5 people to be comfortable. You are right by the pool, a short walk from the tower, and avoid elevator waits to get to the tower rooms. We enjoyed the theming, extra space and extra...

    ALL Character meals are booked :(

    We had great luck checking a cancelled ADR thread like the one linked above. Another suggestion that I see often is to check right around 45 days before your trip because people cancelling vacations rather than making their final payments will lead to cancelled ADRs.

    Disney Emoji Blitz

    I'm on the same challenge. I also gave up trying the boost. it may also work better to use one of the "lucky with..." emojis that is recommended for a certain collection group. my problem is that I'm on the "Under the Sea" items and don't have any fish emoji, so I have to wait until I either get...

    That's when the item is one of the more rare items that you need to collect.

    Traveling with MIL

    Our family has done a few stays with DW, DS (at ages 7, 9, 10, 12), DMIL, and I in one room. We stayed in a standard GW room at CR with no issues on three of those trips. We were all comfortable and flexible with each other and have always gotten along well, though. My son and MIL ended up...
