So is everyone else having trouble with the desktop website version of the MDE app? I haven't been able to see my plans online for two days - works fine on the phone app... which is a huge relief with a trip coming up fast....

I can't see any of my plans on my mobile. I'm winging it tonight off memory, but even signing out and in isn't working tonight.

For me it looks like I'm back now. I can see the online web app on my phone, as well as the mobile app on my phone.

I have not tried my desktop yet but if I can get to it from my phone I can make the necessary changes.

If it works on your phone's browser and not your desktop, try clearing your history and cache or use a different desktop browser.

I always use a Chrome incognito window since it makes the desktop browsing experience more stable.

I had trouble with photos but it’s back for me now.

I folded. I should probably call it a night anyway.

According to the written policy day guests are allowed to park for free if eating and shopping.

And this is the only part of the parking fee implement I have a problem with. Day guest park free to shop and eat or to park and "Say" they are going to shop/eat and walk to MK from CR or "shop/eat" at YC/BC for Epcot access. It sucks that we have to pay to park but it's hard to find a spot. I think for our upcoming trip I will park at YC for our BC stay. How can they charge me the fees if my vehicle isn't there overnight right??

They are much more strict at places like Contemporary and YC/BC

Yeah I know. I was joking. I know about the fees up front and have no problem paying them. It is what it is.

So is the gingerbread house, not sure if that was already mention.

see that today is the first day the Plaza is offering breakfast and saw tweets from both the DIS and WDWNT that they are there - haven't seen reviews yet

the lobster and fried green tomato eggs benedict and POG juice based Mimosa sounded good

I had problems the last day or so. Tried to get in and couldn’t so figured I’d try later. Tried again an hour ago and couldn’t but after refreshing the page three or four times I was able to get in and check reservations.

The phone app was wonky on our trip last week. Out of three people in the party different things wouldn’t be working or broken at various times for different people. (E.g. I couldn’t make reservations but my husband could, I couldn’t see all photopass pics but my mom could, etc..) it was soooooooo weird.

Oh my! That's sad.

(all kinds of responses going through my head, including images of baby Simba from The Lion King -- but I'll refrain)

Wow... at least the mom didn't leave the baby somewhere and just HOPE it would be found...

Very strange times we live in.

I don't know why people that do this with newborns don't use the safe haven laws and leave the newborn at a fire station or etc.

Yeah, obviously a lot we don’t know what led up to that point - I mean, for all we know the woman who brought the baby wasn’t even the mother. But certainly worse places and I just hope and pray the baby finds a good home and is cared for

I saw this just a little bit ago and was like what the heck?

I saw this just a little bit ago and was like what the heck?

I was hesitant to post it just because there is sooooo much unknown and easy to make rash judgements - but obviously a big story that a lot of people will be talking about

Just hope it has happy ending!

Review from the DIS - sounds like the Lobster and Fried Green Tomato eggs Benedict live up to the hype
