    Here Now & Just Back WDW Reopening Experiences Including Park Hopping

    Very true! I always came back with a cold, which I always blamed on the plane! It’s just so wasteful (monetarily) to get it in the middle of the trip! Yeah, I had what I tell people was “Covid original” back in April 2020. Nursed my 90 year old father & sister through it. Lost a good friend to...

    Here Now & Just Back WDW Reopening Experiences Including Park Hopping

    Happily came to my most magical place on earth this past Thursday (7/6). On Monday morning, woke up with a bit of a sore throat - fyi, Magic Kingdom does not sell cough/throat drops. Still thought is was a minor sore throat. Hopped over to Studios, saw Frozen Show, hugged Olaf. Came back to...

    Keys to the Kingdom Question

    I have done the tour four times. It is the same, but different. The tour guide individualizes it. First two times lunch was in Columbia Harbor House. Last two were in Pecos Bill. Our back stage experiences were similar, but different. If your last experience was 10 years ago - I'd say...

    Do I need to worry about mosquitos?

    I was eaten up alive (ankles) last year in May at Jambo House AKL. I didn't realize until day 2 - I was so looking forward to sitting on our balcony, enjoying morning coffee. Once I realized what was happening - that ended. I attributed it to being at the AKL - they can't really spray there...

    The Official Riviera Owners & Info Thread

    We're splurging & staying in a Grand Villa, starting on 7/6. :) Anything we should know about other than its a beautiful place & we should count our lucky stars?! It does have a Keurig right? We usually stay at the Boardwalk - but no room at the inn this year! :)

    Disney+ and Satan

    I loved loved loved the TV Show Lucifer. Turning common belief on its head! Made me remember that Lucifer was/is actually an angel! Yes, he was expelled from “heaven” but that didn’t mean he wasn’t family! What is it that you truly desire? 😉

    Arrival Time Not Rope Dropping

    I would gage about two hours after it opens. But keep in mind, most of the crowds are then in lines & you will be behind all of them.

    Mini golf booked up reservations

    I never knew they had reservations! Is that. In the app? How far out can you reserve?

    Finished stay at Contemporary -- the good, the bad, the upended expectations

    I always tell people with little ones that the Contemporary is the best place to stay (provided you can afford it), as you can walk to & from the MK and avoid all the transportation if your kids are zonked out. The rest? It’s from the 70’s - it is what they considered luxurious then. It has the...

    Am I just remembering wrong that ADRS for resort guests could book an extra 10 days earlier?

    I have never gotten up at 600 am for a dining reservation. I think I have gotten most I wanted. Is it really only for the hard to get castle dining?

    The Official Riviera Owners & Info Thread

    Thanks for the responses. At the Boardwalk -- there is just one large grill near the DVC pool. We have to buy the charcoal & the lighter fluid & obviously all of the food, condiments etc. Then you sign out the BBQ from the DVC clubhouse. And you have to sign that out early, so you can claim...

    The Official Riviera Owners & Info Thread

    Excuse me if this question has been asked before, but I did a search & didn’t find the answer! We are a family that likes to have a cook-out - burgers & dogs etc. We’ve been doing this at the Boardwalk for years, but now we’re booked at the Riviera. I can’t seem to find definitively whether...

    Bermuda?

    Appreciated this thread & the responses. We’re booked on a Halloween cruise out of NYC next year, late October voyaging to Bermuda on the Dream. We don’t get to see Castaway Cay, but we’re docked in Bermuda for three days!

    Bermuda cruise fireworks

    Booked the October 21 2023 out of NYC on the Dream. It will only be my second DCL cruise. My first was the Magic in the Med! Looking forward to the different experience 😉

    Disney Stock News & Earnings

    I have always expected a lawsuit, and that they were waiting for it to be signed before they filed. Let's say - worse case - RCID is never reinstated - what does that mean for the theme parks? No more process improvements, no new development because it would take too long to get permits, etc...

    Recent Car Service Experiences?

    Thanks for this recommendation here. I waited too late to book Tiffany (we haven't used them since DME) - so I booked Access Line today. It's more expensive, but I like having a car waiting for me than dealing with Uber\Lyft. Especially since there are 5 of us :)

    Disney's BOARDWALK INN Information & Questions

    What time do the buses start for AK\MK? If we wanted to rope drop those 2 parks, we'd want to take the first bus out, right? Could we count on them each starting an hour before park open?

    Disney's BOARDWALK INN Information & Questions

    There will only be 12 people in my GV - the rest are staying in other villas. I’m also thinking it will be around 6-8 pm or even 5-7pm (not usual sleeping hours). Doubtful we’ll be making that much noise 😉

    Disney's BOARDWALK INN Information & Questions

    Going to have a large group (three families) in the villas for the 4th of July week. Up to 20 people. Was thinking, since restaurants aren’t taking large groups at the moment, maybe we could have a dining alternative in the Grand Villa? Maybe a bunch of appys? It would be for my niece’s sweet...
