    "Random" Security Checks?? (at WDW now)

    Dd and I have been at WDW since last Saturday (6/11). There have been "random security checks" conducted at all of the parks upon every visit. Other than last Saturday mid-day at MK when everyone was being sent through the metal detectors, we have only witnessed a very few people "randomly...

    Typhoon Lagoon then Disney Springs

    Dd and I did this the other day. Even though there are showers at TL, the entire restroom area is quite dark and can be very busy. It's not a place where you would feel comfortable primping. Dd is a pony tail/no make-up kind of girl most of the time, so she was totally ok with this plan. I...

    At Disney World Now - Observations

    Dd and I have been here since last Saturday (6/11). Crowds have definitely fluctuated throughout the week. Of course, the 10-2 window is by far the busiest (and hottest!). Temperatures also have fluctuated, with most of the week being terribly hot and humid. (Our consolation was that it was...

    Does MDE crash every morning or is just me?

    I have not been able to access it since around 9:30 last night. Unable to make changes for today. Had planned on returning to the MK but after our evening at the Poly, we do not want to do so. :sad1:

    Late Night at MK (Last night) - not much open

    Repeat last night (before the tragedy). This time of year, there seems to be some lightning every single night. :rolleyes:

    Too big for stroller?

    Maneuvering busy parks within even a single stroller can be a pain! When my 2 youngest kids were preschoolers (2 1/2 -4), my strategy was to bring small, cheap umbrella strollers but not let the kids know I had them. When the kids started getting tired, either dh or I would head back to the...

    Are people laying flowers at DW to pay their respects for the victims?

    At WDW right now. Haven't seen anything.

    Gator grabs 2 year old at Grand Floridian?

    Dd and I have just returned to SSR from dinner at Ohana. We watched the boats and the helicopter circling throughout our meal but had no idea of what was going on. CMs in the restaurant also displayed curiosity but did not seem concerned. Clearly, they did not know what had happened. When we...

    Crowds

    Dd and I visited MK yesterday (Monday) morning and evening. We found the morning to be quite crowded (as expected). Typhoon Lagoon during the day was a dream!!:love:

    Late Night at MK (Last night) - not much open

    Words of warning: Dd and I decided to bop over to MK from Epcot last night, as MK was open until midnight. It was a typical Florida evening in June - meaning lightning in the distance but no real rain ever materializing. Arrived at MK around 9 PM to find only the right side of entry open...

    Is Pirates still splashy?

    Rode in the very front of a boat twice over the past two days - got a misting of water the first time and a slightly more damp arm the second. This was during the drop. Glad it was just dd and me in the boat as the edges of the front seat were quite wet. In the past, we have gotten really...

    Chinese Acrobats gone?

    Still performing as of last night....haven't heard anything about the future. Turnover at Epcot has been quite high.

    Parksavers... what's the catch??

    I've purchased tickets from both Undercover Tourist and Parksavers. My older ds (turning 24 in just days) cannot take the time to visit the parks as he did as a kid. In fact dd and I purchased 7-day park hopper/water park tickets for this week, because we couldn't decide if we wanted to get...

    Park Security

    Dd and I are at WDW right now and feel totally safe. I have heard no other guests talking about safety concerns today. We have had many CM friends over the years (I grew up in Orlando.), and they were all trained to be on the lookout for trouble of one kind or another.

    State of Emergency

    Dd and I arrived at WDW yesterday mid-morning. We did not hear of last night's tragedy until someone at home asked us about it. This was at lunch time today. Dd and I have been to Animal Kingdom, Kidani Village (Sanaa), and Disney Springs today, as well as around our home resort (SSR). We...

    Disney Food Pictures...Part V!

    Sunday night special at Artist's Palette: pork loin with a barbecue sauce, mashed potatoes, buttered corn, and a roll. Tastes like something Mom would make - if your mom can cook! Good meal and great value -- $10.99. Dd wants to go back for the meatloaf tonight!

    Disney Food Pictures...Part V!

    Hot ham and cheese from Artist's Palette at Saratoga Springs - packaged for take-out. Love how your food is prepared and brought to your table, even if it's for take-out. This sandwich and the homemade chips were excellent!

    Disney Food Pictures...Part V!

    Pinocchio Village Haus Caprese Pizza yesterday - much better than expected. More of a large snack for 2 than a meal.

    Disney Food Pictures...Part V!

    Yep, you all are correct. This is the sinful Cornflake French Toast from Wolfgang Puck Express. I would recommend sharing it with someone. Hmmmm...might have to go there tomorrow for breakfast.:love:
