Thinking about Garden Grill breakfast. We've never been there before. Any thoughts on GG?

We love GG breakfast, and I think it's a great value. My daughter is 13.5 and not interested in character meals any more and she still loves it. We eat so much steak when we go. They definitely lose money on us!

The steak looks delicious! GG has been on my son's list for a while now.

Hi everyone! I'm a little late to the party and haven't been on DB in years. We are booked for POP from August 23rd to the 30th. This is the 3rd trip we've done late in August.

I wasn't excited when we went a couple of years ago but I'm getting excited for this trip. Looking forward to hearing everyone's plans.

Happy planning everyone!

Dining day today for us .. everything was available except space 220 lounge for 4 people even out to day 10. But overall much easier than years past.

With the news that Stormalong bay reopened, I decided to check to see if there were any open days at Beach Club and I managed to snag a 1 bedroom last night. I decided to put in a waitlist for a studio just to see if it would come through and I could save some points. Got the heart attack inducing cancellation notice at 8:35 this morning that I now have a studio at BC for Aug 27! So, my updated dates:

8/27 BC and 8/28-9/4 SSR

Bumped us to an earlier flight so now we can enjoy the free water park perk. Never been to either Blizzard Beach or Typhoon Lagoon before. I was thinking about TL but see that BB is closer to Movies (which is where we are spending our first night before moving over to Pop) so I may want to just do that. Anybody really love one over the other?

We've only done TL but are going to try BB this trip. TL was fun and my kids liked it. I'm interested to hear what others say, who've been to both.

My kids love the wave pool at TL. We also have not done BB, but will be doing both water parks on this trip so we can do a comparison. We'll use the free water park day at BB and then use the water park tickets we have at TL. With it being so hot, we're doing a lot of water time!

Super excited for both the parade and test track news! Those will be our goals early week so we can potentially repeat later.

We like both water parks and it's been years since BB has been open in August. But we prefer BB... way more slides...only thing we like better at typhoon is the wave pool.
