Is Chewy holding a boombox?

Also, no ones wearing the “M” Word, so this is obviously fake

I’m in NJ too and most people I know are living life as usual, but with a mask. I don’t talk Disney with them usually but When we’ve talked about vacations everyone is fine with it. I told them I was taking my son in March and they were very excited.

I actually have one set of friends who have three non Disney trips planned in the next 3 months. My other friend is looking to book a trip to Mexico soon. Another is going to the Grand Canyon.

I haven’t seen anyone travel shamed on social media. I’ve actually seen the exact opposite. Lots of “good for you” and “how fun” or “I’m so jealous.” If someone were to travel shame me I would delete them off of social media immediately. I don’t have time for all that noise. P

I think travel shaming is a thing, just not in my circle - to be honest, most of the travel shaming I've seen was on this thread! (around opening)

Hey - has the new BBQ place in the American Pavilion at Epcot reopened yet? Regal Eagle? Beagle? Eagle Beagle?

Has anyone eaten there, did you like it?

We really enjoyed it. Food was hot, fresh, tasty and we thought it was way better than what was there before.

From a cut movie scene (think "Say Anything").

I have not posted about either of my 2 trips to WDW since it reopened because I did not feel like dealing with the travel shaming. It is a real thing and I'm not a fan of this new trend.

Sadly, for many people nowadays, if someone has the opposite opinion from them, they are no longer just different or even wrong, they are evil. Once considered evil, all manner of uncivil discourse (and behavior) is "justified."

School starts next week, so I wouldn’t take anything away from these Monday afternoon wait times

This is how I feel. My daughters and I have a WDW trip in a couple weeks. I have no intention of posting anything on social media. My girls have been going to in-person school since Aug and participating in sports. I feel Disney is just as safe as how we have been living. I am sure there is someone where I live who would not agree. Actually, my parents will probably quarantine from us when we get back. DH is on board with us going and actually suggested we keep the trip (we booked in January).

Let’s take a more practical approach actually...


We don’t do COVID data here but we have permission from the mod to discuss it IF it directly relates to theme parks. You apparently have this data so put it up.

My apologies to the moderator if this is off subject. There is a website http://covid19florida.mystrikingly.com/ that takes numbers from the Florida State government website and tracks them in graphs. You can look at the data a million different ways.

I was pulling up the graphs for non-Florida resident (Tourist) cases found in Orange and Osceola counties, and those cases climbed first when Universal and DVC opened. Peaked when WDW opened, and then slowed considerably. Now non-Florida residents in those countries are trending up faster than the numbers for Florida residents.

Other interesting numbers are while the state of Florida in general is holding steady, Orange County is increasing in all age groups other than college age.

These could all be coincidences, as there are no contact tracing proof they were theme park goers. But there is no contact tracing proof they are not either.

Great news!!!

Great news!!!

I really like how they handle it at Garden Grill.

That top tier is perfect for them to walk around. Works out really well with people on the lower level getting good pics of the characters above.
