    OKW Lovers Thread. Part 2

    Our bus service at OKW was very good the entire time we were there. We stayed near the South Point bus stop. I would actually even choose that area again if we were staying there another time. The only issue I had was that it does take 10 minutes just to drive around OKW in the busses ... or...

    Main Entrance Pass confusion

    She should be able to get up to 4-5 other passes, which will be actual cards for her friends/family. Unless college cast members are different for some reason.... and I wouldn't know that because my husband is a full time employee. If she does, you would be able to see them on your Disney...

    2 Families Where To Stay?

    Port Orleans is so nice and you could get adjoining rooms, like already mentioned. We used the extra "bed" for our youngest until they were grown since we have 5 in our family! We have always liked being able to take afternoon pool breaks for the kids when they were younger, and that pool is...

    ***Official*** Pandora: The World of Avatar Information Thread

    From what I read, folks are saying you have to get there 45 minutes to an hour before rope drop, and then it's a 8-9 minute walk over there to FoP, and then there is usually more than a 30 minute wait... up to an hour by then .... So if you add up all that time .... it's still about a 2 hour...

    OKW Lovers Thread. Part 2

    How many of you usually get in your room earlier than 4pm ? We are hoping to get in earlier, and just assume it depends on many factors! Hoping to get to the Publix, and all set up in our room and head to Disney Springs for dinner at the Boathouse at 5pm.

    180 days - 6 a.m. and still could not get more than 4 of our ADR's

    Last time we were at EPCOT, I checked my phone (disney experience) for getting a lunch reservation at Garden Grill. There were none. We were nearby, so I just walked up to the man at the podium and asked if there was any chance we could eat lunch. He said absolutely and sat us right away! It...

    OKW Lovers Thread. Part 2

    I am trying to decide on whether or not to just take the time to grocery shop after arriving at our resort, or does it make sense to order through Green Grocer. Is the Publix close to OKW ? What do others do? We want to eat all of our breakfasts at the resort, then will eat out for all the rest!

    OKW Lovers Thread. Part 2

    Thanks! This is our first time trying a DVC property. My husband works for ESPN/Disney, which is why we were able to afford this, and it helps to have the extra room/walls with three young adults in our family. I am thrilled to have the kitchen for fixing quick breakfasts as well ! Can't wait !!

    Anyone use K tape when touring the parks?

    I went in July and I have osteoarthritis in one knee that's painful. While I am on some anti-inflammatory medicine and tramadol for pain, I also use KT and decided to start fresh there, and didn't wear it for the airplane trip. We walked around that night for a restaurant, etc. and I really...

    Me too and I just went in July to WDW. I bought feetures elite and have tried to attach picture. They were super!!! I also wore asics for women socks with a tab at the back. Mostly no show socks in a way. But the key for me was using BODY GLIDE for my feet. I never got blisters and my feet...
