If the choice was between the TTC parking lot and the WL parking lot, then it is WL - hands down. It is very easy to catch a boat to WL after Wishes. Having an easy way to get back from MK after Wishes is one of our favorite things about staying at the WL. The lines to get back to the TTC after Wishes, whether it is ferry or monorail lines, is very long.

And the boat or bus to MK from WL is easy, too. So my vote would be to park at WL.

Thanks for the reply. That is what I figured. This is my 1st time renting a car and not just relying on Disney transportation so I keep overthinking everything! We will be leaving DH at home and it is just me and DD and I am admittedly directionally challenged!!

Has anyone utilized the new FP+ kiosk in the parks?? My FPs are all scheduled, but now with 4th and 5th passes being added, I may have to revamp things This could take a while...

Hope everyone has a happy Sunday!

Exactly. For the boat to WL, you have WL and FW guests vs TTC could be going anywhere else on Disney property or off site altogether.

Thanks for the info on her quiet pool! We are staying CV BB over 9/20 to 9/27 with free dining! First stay. Can anyone give me their thoughts on the whispering canyon breakfast? It's two adults and two kids. Thought it might be fun one morning before heading into the parks. Thx!

Whispering canyons is fun for any meal my boys love it and the CMs are very entertaining.. its great to have a table service that its ok for kids to get up and move around...and fyi don't forget to ask for ketchup and straws!!

We have a CV BB room for September. I'd like a room overlooking the falls closer to the lobby....not the pool. How would I request that? Is there a specific term for that area?

Thanks!

I think it is referred to the upper courtyard. Or maybe you need to request the upper part of the inner courtyard. We had a room there and it was a very nice view.
