My exact comment on the ride this past January.....I have seen more wildlife in the parking lot. Seriously, was not impressed. We did see the hyena, first one I have ever seen and I was truly looking forward to. We also did the night time safari on our previous trip ( a few months prior) and...

We will be arriving in early January '17. Have any Christmas season travelers seen fliers for the bounce back offer in their room?

countless trips and as for on property, we have seen grasshoppers as long as a playing card, but never a mosquito. I mean really....has anyone else seen the hoppers? They are like something from the time of dinosaurs

If it sounds fun or makes sense financially, go for it....We have been driving from northern Minnesota roughly two times a year since our kids were the same age as yours and have done it countless times. The trip is somewhat boring on the interstate, but is the only way to go if you are looking...

I will be running the 1/2 marathon in 2017. We have ran the full the last three times (every other year) but age and beer has caught up with me. My BIL will be running the 1/2 and the full again. That is my bucket wish dream to do with my two children. Unfortunately, I have few years to wait...

The view from the bus drive up area at All Star Sports was great and only seconds from the pool. One night over our 2015 Christmas trip we saw a rocket launch which was an added bonus ( I remember yelling out..is anyone else seeing this, thinking it was a plane on fire). We also used to watch...

Knee jerk PC extremism. I am so glad I spent the money on buying the kids real guns and not toy ones.

We were looking for information everywhere and were having a hard time finding out if/when they would return. We ended up calling our WDW Resort and asking the front desk about them returning over the holidays. I don't recall the specific dates, but after quite awhile on hold, we were told...

I'm not sure of the exact time the buses start to run, but on non-Christmas trips we leave our room at the resort and head to the bus one hour prior to opening. Christmas week, we leave the room at least 1 hour and 15 minutes before the park opening time. That is our preference. We like to be...

Christmas crowds will come to an abrupt end within the first couple days but this time frame is leading up to the marathon weekend. Mid-stay should be very manageable, with an uptick in crazy at the start and the end.

For me, staying off site I would not venture away to take a break, especially when visiting MK. That seems to be the crown jewel for everyone during Christmas. It is not just getting into the park, but getting into the parking lot that can be a pain. You could end of wasting a whole lot of...

We normally spend 10 full plus 2 travel days per trip. The heat can start to get to us during the summer trips, but we always we remind ourselves that we are at WDW, which is far better and more fun than the real world. For our Christmas trips, this length seems perfect, but of course the...

We have looked at the deluxe plan, but have never done it due to the amount of time involved. Even with the standard plan, we end up planning our days around our dining reservations and we do not like to be locked in to a set schedule. If dining is more important than park time, go for it. If...

YANKEBABIE..You mention BB...any idea what the dates of the offer are. We are traveling over Christmas and are looking for something in March or June of 2016.

I too have heard for many years that the credits are pooled together and it is not really tracked for adult/vs child. I am sure there were times when we got an adult menu item for our kids when they were a "child." There were also many trips where we never used all or our credits and often...

If you sit in the seat where the water doesn't splash you will stay dry

I would do some searching and see what you can get for rates, you could find that it would not be all that much more $$ to have the car for a few days/week. Not sure of your dates, but search picking the rental up at the car care center and returning it to MCO or pick up at MCO for pick up and...

I guess it is hard for me to say how many in one day ( besides Christmas visits I would guess it is around 12 per day ) . We are going Dec 21-Jan 1 and will be at MK numerous times with the plan of doing all that we want. Which include FP+ on the headliners each visit and then the others as...

Early January. We do the marathon every other year. It is nice to leave below zero temps in Minnesota and get to somewhere with green grass. Over the years, WDW continues to get busier, but it still seems to be a slower point at the parks. We have had years with 80 degree days and others...

Did you go upside down?
