    Disney Wish - February 26th, 2024 - 4-Night Bahamian Cruise from Port Canaveral

    We’ll be there, too! This will be a couples only trip for my wife and I, celebrating our 23rd anniversary. We started this tradition a couple years ago and have loved it so far. Can’t wait!

    Changes To Main Dining

    Thanks for the information, everyone. I saw another vlog this am that said the seatings were combined. So weird! It's not a huge deal, except it is really hard to plan things like spa appointments if we don't know when we're going to sit down to eat. At the end of the day, in 19 days I'll...

    Changes To Main Dining

    Howdy everyone We’re sailing out of Nola on 2/14 on the Wonder. I’ve seen several vlogs lately that said their main and late dinings were combined into one seating that happened at a time between the two tegularly scheduled times (6:30 or 7:00?) Has anyone sailed recently that had this...

    HUGE Mystery at Animal Kingdom Lodge, Jambo

    I agree with PP regarding the likelihood that it's an obscure mid-east royal family of some sort. I was a CM for a couple years and the most extravagant displays I ever saw were for people most of us have never heard of. Oh ... and Eisner's family. o_O Also, "Jambo" means "Welcome."

    Port Orleans Riverside or French Quarter?!

    I definitely suggest POR. It's my favorite resort during the non-Christmas season. Make sure you make the trek to POFW during your stay, though. The Cajun food at the food court is great, and I'll echo previous posters- the beignets are to die for, and we used to live in New Orleans! If you...

    POP vs POR - Sway me?

    Full Disclosure- POR is my favorite non-Christmas resort on property. That being said, I would choose POR every time. When considering one resort versus another, we consider transportation, food, location and theming. In each category, POR is the far-and-away winner for me. It's honestly...

    AoA vs CSR

    Ok, so I'll be the dissenting opinion on this one, which is pretty low-risk, since you already changed the reservations. :) I have stayed at AoA and been to CSR. I would choose AoA over CSR 100 times out of 100, construction or not. I find CSR to be way too large and spread out for any stays...

    UPDATE 6/26- Didn't we just leave the Pacific Northwest? Wilderness Lodge AND AoA at Christmastime!

    It's funny ... when I was booking the split stay I remembered that comment I put over on your PTR about how "split stays" and "four kids" don't go well together! :rotfl:

    When Does It Start to Feel "Real?"--A Nov 2017 PTR UPDATE- 11/12/17 Final Thoughts. <3

    PO is still our favorite resort. We prefer POR, but POFQ is beautiful, too. My wife is gluten free and the beignets at POFQ can be made gf, so we typically end up making the trip over there so she can eat beignets while I eat red beans and rice!

    Go big or stay home!

    Based on your description of the twins, that photo is PERFECT. So funny! Looking forward to reading along. Also, glad to know I'm not the only one who considers Macallan to be a "treat!" DH and I should start a club or something.

    UPDATE 6/26- Didn't we just leave the Pacific Northwest? Wilderness Lodge AND AoA at Christmastime!

    UPDATE!!! So. How's everyone doing? Fun times over at TheRichFam Global Headquarters. We (finally) got the house on the market. We managed to do so without harming anyone, which I hear is quite the accomplishment. The last weekend before we put it on the market, we were neck-deep in...

    UPDATE 6/26- Didn't we just leave the Pacific Northwest? Wilderness Lodge AND AoA at Christmastime!

    He really could, but to his enduring credit he is an incredible gentleman in that regard. No "playing the field," thankfully. Thanks for your kind words. Enjoy the soufflé!

    UPDATE 6/26- Didn't we just leave the Pacific Northwest? Wilderness Lodge AND AoA at Christmastime!

    That actually sounds amazing! I found the recipe for the gluten-free chocolate souffle that they serve on Disney Cruise Line in Palo. I have made it a few times and when it comes out well, it is amazing. They even include the recipe for both sauces! I will be happy to post it if anyone wants it...

    Planning Disney World trip for an extended family of 9

    You absolutely can. You cannot do it direct through Disney, and to avoid getting either one of us thrown into DISboards jail, I won't put any specific sources here. Just Google "DVC point rental" and you will find a couple of sources. There are two main ones, one is named after a man and one is...

    Planning Disney World trip for an extended family of 9

    We have found in the past that whatever property is doing refurb has great deals available in rooms and villas. Ee have stayed at a resort under refurb twice and we are doing so again this December. We have NEVER been inconvenienced or disturbed by the construction. Other than that, have you...

    UPDATE 6/26- Didn't we just leave the Pacific Northwest? Wilderness Lodge AND AoA at Christmastime!

    Some Parents Teach Kids Their ABCs. We Teach Ours Their ADRs. Hola. Before we get rolling, I have some fun news. I found a list of the music tracks used at Wilderness Lodge for their music loop over on a different board. I verified it a couple places and it looks like it is mostly...

    UPDATE 6/26- Didn't we just leave the Pacific Northwest? Wilderness Lodge AND AoA at Christmastime!

    They do. For that reason, DCL is an amazing option for us, but we decided we're gonna hold out until the Lion is potty trained before doing another cruise so he can go to the clubs. Thanks for following along!
