    If you could add one country to World Showcase...

    I love Indian food, and the pavilion would be beautiful, so India would be my top choice. Russia could also be really special, and I would love to see more than one African nation represented, to show the diversity of the continent...so maybe Egypt and Nigeria, for instance.

    How bad is August?

    I go every year in late August, the lighter crowds just after many schools have gone back into session and just before Labor Day, plus the lower rates are the main attraction. I definitely plan for rain EVERY afternoon (think of days with no rain as a pleasant surprise!), and I know that there...

    My Disney Experience is working today

    I should have known I would have problems. Today is my 180 day mark, so I got up at 6 am, and was able to start making reservations...up until my credit card was declined, repeatedly, for some mysterious reason. It's the same card I've been using to make payments toward my vacation, so I have...

    Just back from HS; allergy scare & FP+ was....

    Thanks for the tip about the fishing pier! We'll be at POFQ next summer, and my son is *very* allergic to peanuts and tree nuts. Even if I had seen the warning, I might have thought, as you did, that his sensitivity wouldn't include shells in the area, but it's always better to be cautious...

    Darth Vader Character Opportunity

    If it's raining (or probably anytime there's an issue with having the performance), and your child is already signed up for Jedi Training Academy (the stage in front of Star Tours), they'll bring the children up there for photos instead of the scheduled class. I was *so* worried that my son...

    Anybody at POP now

    I'm staying in the 50s section at Pop right now, and our fridge is unplugged, with a note on it that all refrigerators are being replaced. I suppose the fridge would work if I plugged it in, but I don't want to mess with it. Maybe people in other sections have gotten the new ones already, but...

    Current Bounceback?

    You probably already spoke to a CM who knows what's up, but if anyone else needs it, the offer code for 2014 free dining bounceback is HIO. I have pics of the ad in the middle of the current Be Our Guest guide that was in our welcome packet in our room, but my post count is too low! If anyone...

    Magic Bands are live on DME!

    I booked my package with tickets and dining plan. I don't know if this would make a difference, but I booked with a PIN code that was sent to me.

    FP+ Details Are Out!

    I chose all headliners, and I noticed that I was able to rank them in order of importance while choosing. There was a choice to do "quick picks", but I didn't bother with that. After choosing rides, I was given four sets of times for all three rides, with one set being marked as my best...

    FP+ Details Are Out!

    I just went all the way through the process...it never occurred to me that I could be locked out of regular FastPasses, eep! But my choices stuck, and I was even able to adjust times after being given sets of times that could have overlapped with my ADRs. My choices are still up on MDE, and I...

    FP+ Details Are Out!

    August 20th (35 days to go!). I got our Mickey Mail yesterday and figured we were all good, but now it looks like we'll be sent Magic Bands some time after July 20th. We'll be staying at Pop, if that matters. I'm kind of excited to play with the new technology, but it would be nice if we...

    FP+ Details Are Out!

    So I logged into MDE this morning and instead of the popup telling me to link my reservations to prepare for FP+, I was prompted to customize my Magic Bands and make FastPass+ selections. Am I part of a test group, or is this the rollout? Just wondering if I'll still be able to use the old...
