As much of a pain as it was to stay up until 11:00pm on a work night, I was sooooo glad not to have to choose either Savi's OR ADRs to reserve first.
FUN!!! And welcome to our group!!!
Just wanted to give people a heads up that July hours at DHS were extended until 8 pm.
That’s great us too

I know- and they have been refreshing the bioluminescent paint... I'm hoping all the parks get extensions before July, but at least this is some progress.
I just booked our trip (myself and 18 year old son, for his 18th Birthday/Graduation) for the end of July.
We haven't been in probably 6 years and after reading the forums, I can't believe how much things have changed, I already feel lost lol.
We are staying at the CS Tower, I have made our park reservations, ordered magic bands, reserved Magical Express and already did the hotel check-in.
I've never been in July so I'm a little worried with the heat/sunburn factor (we are both very fair). I think we will be following the advice to go early, then back to room to rest, then back in evening. The hours/park closure times seem to make that a possible challenge (unless they extend the parks hours).
We aren't big eaters, so I haven't made any dining reservations. I figured lunch would probably be our biggest meal, then small stuff through the day.
Also, was curious...does the base ticket work the same, can leave and return to the same park for the day?
Do the resorts still allow groceries to be delivered?
Sorry for the rambling, it is all so over-whelming right now lol
Any tips would be great appreciated
NO KIDDING. I would love NOTHING more than to hop back over in the evening for an early nightcap at Nomad Lounge!!!!

If you'll provide your dates I'll get you added to our illustrious Roll Call. Yes, things have definitely changed, but they've changed for everyone so you are NOT alone! Regarding food, do get super familiar with mobile ordering and the issues that go along with it, i.e., planning when you want to eat and ordering way in advance. Also, as Ecomommy09 pointed out, grocery delivery is a great way to go. I'll take it a step further and say if you order through Dizzy Dolphin and want alcohol, they have a system that allows you to order from a chain liquor store, then they do the pick up. If you provide a copy of your driver's license, you don't have to meet them when they deliver. Fair warning, they are a bit spendy, and I say that as one who's used them for years.
I just replaced my greatly adored and well traveled fedora with a nearly identical version, and cannot WAIT to break in the new one!!! 
If we weren't leaving on the 20th, I would be all OVER that B&C reservation!!!!
