See, I told you not to listen to me! lol Thanks @Wood Nymph for confirming. Now it's going to bug me because I remember reading that they stopped doing FP for one of the shows...I just can't remember which one or which park!!
If I didn't listen to you and everyone here, I would be in a lot of trouble with my shoddy plans!!!See, I told you not to listen to me! lol Thanks @Wood Nymph for confirming. Now it's going to bug me because I remember reading that they stopped doing FP for one of the shows...I just can't remember which one or which park!!
Yup it was me. No more FP for festival of fantasy parade in the afternoon. But it shouldn't be too hard to get a spot at Frontierland
Congratulations!!!! That's a great feeling!Look...look..look what I got!

I swear @1437disney I think of you all the time. Have you been able to find the CRT? I definitely still have it and I'm still in the same position
but more so towards being able to transfer it.
catching up... does anyone even care about this topic anymore? lolMorning, all! I have a question for everyone! I was wondering, what is everyone's favorite must do at each park aside from things you can fp Or reserve!
Including shows/ snacks etc! Any ONE thing that you just have to do!
Sorry if this has been discussed
Mine would likely be:
MK: the tiki room! I think the girls will love that and want to go back!
EPCOT: I'd say it's visiting inside Mexico !! I'd say it was the Mexico ride but I haven't been there since they changed it!!
AK: never been there, but I'm going to guess the bird show, or some sort of snack there
HS: never been
I figured you meant reserve way in advance.
catching up... does anyone even care about this topic anymore? lol
MK: carousel of progress, peoplemover, the tiki room. I can't pick just one. 3 classic walt attractions that give me the warm fuzzies
Epcot: Voices of Liberty. they are INCREDIBLE. They sing 15 minutes before certain american adventure presentations (but not for EVERY show, check times guide). If you don't know who they are, they are an a cappella group in 19th century historic costume that sing some historic american classics. The acoustics in the lobby of the american adventure are fantastic and this is one thing that I do not miss at Epcot. I even have the cd somewhere. they also perform at the candlelight processional. if you are going to bother going to AA, do not miss voices of liberty. They even let you sit in the front row while you wait for and listen to the show so you can rest your tired tootsies.
AK: flights of wonder show - I have talked about this before as it is definitely part of my plan. to me it is a hidden gem at AK. It has a cute little backstory that actually works (imo) and they bring out all kinds of birds to talk about them and show them off and some of them are even allowed to fly around the pavilion above the audience. this is definitely a highlight of AK for me.
HS: everyone knows about this but I have to say Jedi Training Academy. No FP+ and no extra charge, this is such a fantastic experience for your little star wars fans. Kiddo has done it twice and is insisting on doing it again. You do reserve it day of but I'm not sure that's what you meant?
Up to page 291. still so far to go.
you can, there is plenty of room to just pop in and stand at the back. I like to sit in the front and I like to see the entire show
the costumes are incredible too but you can pop in and listen during any show.
I know it is very late butHi all! Coming out of lurkdom on this thread to say hello
Myself, DH, DS7, and DS2 will be at ASSp from 11/25-12/3 (hopefully the early pop warner arrivals will be tame!). We took the kids for the first time last October and had such a blast we decided to surprise them with another trip this year. We jumped on the FD promotion and can't wait to try some new restaurants along with favorites from last year.
Here's our itinerary:
11/25: 2:25pm arrival at MCO - settle in, and possibly head to AoA so DS2 can see the Cars stuff since he's obsessed with everything Cars. Pizza delivery (Giordanos, since we can't get it here and it's DH's favorite) and hang at the resort.
11/26: Putt putt at Winter Summerland with package vouchers, then to DS to shop and hit Trex for 4pm dinner. Early to bed this night.
11/27 - 8am EMH at DSH - priorities will be Jedi training, use the FP, have 3:10 H&V dinner and then probably call it an early night.
11/28 - Epcot morning to hit the rides. 2:45 meal at Garden Grill. Hop to HS for SW Fireworks (assuming they dont change the current schedule)
11/29 - MK. 8:20 PPO at BOG. 6:50 dinner at WCC.
11/30 - RD HS to hit DS7's faves again. Afternoon in Epcot, Teppan Edo lunch or dinner (have both, need to decide!), then hop to MK for nighttime and EMH. Hopefully my kids can hang for this LONG day. I *need* to see castle lighting and Wishes.
12/1 - AK day. 6:15 dinner at Boma.
12/2: last MK day. BOG lunch at 12:35, 'Ohana dinner at 6:30. No parties for us.
12/3: home
Other info: We booked this trip on a new MDE so we can use last year's MB for SDFP. pretty excited about this and hoping it works out great. my youngest will turn 3 on New Years Day, so this trip will be a "last time we can get him in free at WDW" slash birthday trip for him. I grew up going to WDW every 1-2 years and staying with my grandparents in Zephyrhills. We did Disney on the cheap and picnicked in our car. I'm loving being able to take my kids and experience WDW and relive my memories and make new ones. DH only went once when he was 4 so the nostalgia factor isn't there for him - works for me, since I do all the planning!
Look...look..look what I got!

I will do splash, they turn off that waterfall that REALLY soaks you (if I remember correctly? don't quote me on that lol) when it is cooler out but I have concerns about Kali. I will read on now. still saving splash for daytime at MK though.

MK: carousel of progress, peoplemover, the tiki room. I can't pick just one. 3 classic walt attractions that give me the warm fuzzies and at the risk of sounding like a kook, make me feel like walt is nearby. i never go to the MK and miss any of these.

I thought there were tips on the star wars thread about which side to put them on. Mine wants to fight vadar too, I need to figure that out too. I read about it but it did not stick.
I do!!catching up... does anyone even care about this topic anymore? lol

Thanks!!i love tiki room too 
Rivers of Light is a show that Disney has been working on for a long time. We were in WDW in June and there was a lot of talk about the show being opened by the time we were there. Then they had lots of problems with the show and pulled it out of the line up. They replaced it with a hastily produced Jungle Book show. So we were one of those families who has been looking forward to this show since February. I would love for it to be ready for our October 1st arrival, but I'm not counting on it. But I really think that it will be up and running by December. It is supposed to be finished now.
There was something on the Star Wars thread that mentioned this in particular. It's a long thread but it's somewhere there with pictures too. I think someone named bluelion was the one mentioned it.
