    A few notes from my recent on site stay

    Stayed 2 nights each at GCH and DLH. Switched because no pool at GCH. Was disappointed in DLH. Have stayed once before and had a much nicer room (same category both times.) What I didn't like: one of beds was uncomfortably soft and loud whenever someone turned over. Single sink (double sink at...

    So confused about RSR strategy. Help?

    Actually, when I was there last week, the RSR FP was open during EMH. First time I've seen that (admittedly with limited experience.) FPs were running out by 10:30. But this is spring break.

    Advice on "newer" things at DL/DCA

    I'm heading to the parks week after next and am looking for advice on a few of the newer activities/rules since about mid-2015. For example, Jedi training is different now, with sign ups. The Frozen show has replaced Aladdin. I hear security is different. The official app. Anything else I'm...

    Tickets cheaper on Orbitz

    I bought my 3-day park hopper tickets for the end of this month on Orbitz this morning. They were a total of $58 cheaper than on the Disney website (2 child and 1 adult ticket.) I assume this is the old pricing. Slightly less convenient, of course since I have to go to the ticket kiosk to pick...

    Disneyland Trip 8/26

    I was there all week and confirm crowds were light. Monday was a little more crowded than the other days. For whatever reason, my kids' school starts next week, but everyone else seems to have already started. Only negative (besides the heat, which can't be helped) was no weeknight Fantasmic...

    Tips on avoiding the heat

    We're heading to Disneyland tomorrow and it looks like it's going to be very hot by Wednesday (97°). We are not good hot weather people! Any special tips you have for avoiding the sun and heat? I thought of doing character meals and going to see Aladdin during the hottest times of the day, as...

    Favorite way to tell kids they're going to Disney?

    I told mine that I was picking them up from school early to take them to the Dr for their flu shot. When we got to the car, I put on my ears and made them guess where we were really going. I think they were as happy about not getting a shot as about going to DL!

    Disboard phone app problem!!!!!

    I got that message yesterday on my iPhone app. About a week ago, I was getting so many pop ups I couldn't even use the app. That seems to have mostly gone away. I did report it and others said they were having the same problem. Since it mostly went away, I'm hopeful that they are working on it.

    Bad mom for shielding 4y/o DD from princessy fun at DLR?

    My best memories of Disneyland are seeing my 4 yo absolutely beaming when meeting the princesses. This shocked me, as a non-girly mom, how happy it made me to see this. Even now, 5 years later, I look back at the pictures and am just so filled with joy remembering her joy. Have an open mind and...

    Wouldn't you know, as soon as I posted that, I got 2 pop ups.

    Not getting them anymore. I'll assume it was fixed. Sorry for the crazy typos in the OP. Was in a hurry and didn't proofread for autocorrect craziness.

    Pop ip add

    Unseemly getting a ton of Pop up ads for other apps (Uber, games). Just started today and I'm on here almost daily. Extremely annoying and very difficult to read forum posts. I'm on a iPhone 5s using the app.

    Concern over late seatings at character breakfast

    We did a 10:30 reservation at Minnie's a month ago. 11 of 12 characters came to our table, some twice. Great interactions. They were still coming around when we left at 11:50. We were sitting inside, not too far from the door where they go in and out for breaks. I also did a late reservation at...

    Need help deciding whether to book End of March trip

    Yes, the week before and after Easter are the busiest spring break weeks (unless Easter falls unusually early or late). 2015 Easter falls right in the middle, so expect large crowds. On the positive side, expect long opening hours and a full boat of entertainment.
