    Is July 4th a hellscape at WDW?

    We go every year over July 4th, it is a family tradition. It is crowded but not as bad as other holidays. You just have to have a plan. We always go to MK on July 3rd. They have the special fireworks on both the 3rd and 4th. On the 4th we go to AK since it is the least crowded park on the 4th.

    ***The Official AKV Owners And Lovers Thread***. Come And Chat

    The chair bed is slightly better for me, I have a bad back also. I always bring a memory foam topper though since I can’t tolerate either without one.

    Just returned from AKV, quick observations

    We were also at AKV-Jambo during the week of the 4th. Overall, we had a great time. I do miss APs but we went to the parks with regular tickets since I am not going down there from Jersey and not going to the parks but I can understand those that do. I found the parks to be less crowded than I...

    Jambo! The newest AKL Information thread

    We are at AKL right now and the Allears menu is not correct. The Disney website is accurate. It’s fine for us since we don’t eat there much. We’ve had several things and everything has been very good even though the menu is a bit limited.

    We are close!!! Copper Creek 6/29-6/30 Jambo House 6/30-7/7 My cousin is a CM and said that guests are significantly more cranky about so many things these days. She used to enjoy working at Disney now she gets cursed at and talked down to on a daily basis. I would not worry too much about...

    Jambo! The newest AKL Information thread

    There are some standard view rooms that are very close to the lobby that have a partial savannah view of the Sunset Savannah. I agree that a request made after checking out Touring Plans is best. I have stayed in some that are right above the Check In Desk and overlook the savannah alcove that...

    Magic Bands: Why not get them on check in?

    Actually there really aren’t any available for $10. Only one that is a blush/ skin tone color. The rest are $20-$30.

    Magic Bands: Why not get them on check in?

    They are not free any longer. You can now also open your door using your phone so you don’t necessarily need a magic band.

    ideas for resort "pool day" at AKL?

    There are no walking trails but you can actually walk the halls of both Jambo and Kidani to check out all of the authentic African art. It really is spectacular and you can rack up several miles doing so.

    Technical Issues Logging into DVC Website

    I have the exact same problem, including the constant reminder that a website is unsafe when using my Macbook. I googled to see if it was a virus but I can't find anything. It is incredibly frustrating watching the blue circle spin and spin no matter what I do.

    Savanna view room at AKL - animal?

    The animals are there it’s just that they may not choose to hang out on the area by your room when you are on your balcony. Usually in the morning they are having their check ups and the savanna is quiet but late afternoon there is usually plenty of activity. We were just there and had many...

    Indoor Dining Right Now?

    I recently had dinner at Sanaa and there were very large spaces between tables. We are conservative too and felt perfectly safe. I have eaten there quite a few times and it is obvious that tables were removed to allow for extra space this time.

    Why are so many people jumping off rides??

    Maybe it's the same folks that jumped off the Living with the Land ride to grab a cucumber and decided they wanted vegetables from Brer Rabbit's garden too.

    Tent camping in the heat

    We camped in a tent there in July once years ago. I am not adding anything new to the discussion but have to say I agree with those that say don't do it. It was not only the heat, we had fans that helped a bit, but it was the everyday afternoon/evening thunderstorms on top of the heat that put...
