    Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions

    At the Swan. Dinner last night was a bit chaotic. The line to put your name in at Il Mulino stretched to the Kimonos entrance and then they were quoting a 3 hour wait. We went over to the Dolphin and sat in the Shula’s lounge and had a lovely meal. Walking across wasn’t bad at all. This...

    Hurricane Ian - WDW Resorts Related Updates, Planning & Discussion

    No thanks, we went and talked to a manager. He did say if shelter in place is lifted tomorrow, we can head over. Luckily they got us in at the swan for tomorrow night.

    Hurricane Ian - WDW Resorts Related Updates, Planning & Discussion

    Landed safely last night (actually one of the the smoothest flights I’ve ever been on!) and are due to check in to the Swan today but now we can’t check in to the Boardwalk tomorrow. We’re going to Uber to the Boardwalk at 8 AM and see if they have anything tonight and if not, hopefully the Swan...

    Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions

    Has anyone ridden out a storm in the Swan? Just wondering what to expect. We hopefully check in tomorrow but are scheduled to be at Boardwalk Thursday. We fly in tonight and I’ve scheduled an Uber to get us from our airport hotel to Swan at 8 AM. Here’s hoping it all works out for us but more...

    We were scheduled to arrive at BWV Thursday evening. I switched our flights to Tuesday, now landing at MCO at 11:30 PM. We’re staying at an airport hotel Tuesday night, then will hopefully be able to Uber to Swan where we’ll stay Wednesday night. We’ll see what happens Thursday if we can get...

    September 17, 2023 Disney Dream Transatlantic from Southampton, England - 11 Night Cruise

    Booked on this sailing as well. It will be my husband and I, celebrating his 40th birthday. This will be our 3rd Disney cruise and 2nd time on the Dream. The first time was only a 4 night so I’m excited to spend more time on the ship.

    The Running Thread - 2021

    Has anyone here fueled with UCAN gels? I recently found out I am insulin resistant so my normal fuel is causing my blood sugar to spike during runs. My runs have been horrible recently and I'm guessing it's because my body is storing the sugar in my Bloks and Skratch instead of using it for...

    Official November 2021!

    We arrive on 10/30 for one night at Riviera, then Shades of Green 10/31-11/2 and finally OKW 11/2-13 so I had 3 mornings to make ADRs last week. Didn’t have too many planned, but I got everything for the exact times I wanted except for Oga’s. Can’t find one at all, but I have alerts on Touring...

    SHADES OF GREEN at Walt Disney World Resort Information & Questions

    In the past, has the Shades ticket office sold annual passes? I’ve already purchased 10 day tickets through their office for our upcoming trip so I’m just curious if I can upgrade those to the new AP next week through Shades or if I have to call Disney to do it. I know normally the upgrade has...

    The Running Thread - 2021

    Hi everyone! Back into a consistent running groove since cutting way back for a year or 2. Currently training for W&D 2 course challenge and I’m finishing a 100 day run streak this upcoming Tuesday and I’m tired! The heat and humidity in SE Virginia is kicking my butt, but it’s going to be 65°...

    ATTQOTD: Coffee.. I use a K-Cup in the mornings I have to commute to the office for the convenience of it; not great, but it gets the job done. All other times we use freshly ground beans using the pour over method in the V60. It takes longer to brew, but worth it. My dad is a total coffee nerd...

    Marathon Weekend 2020

    SAFD: Outside of WDW, I’ve only been to Disneyland Paris. We did both parks in 1 day while on a 2-week European vacation in 2012. It was a super crowded Saturday so it really wasn’t fun and often uncomfortable. We only did the Lights Motor Action show and rode Pirates as those lines ate up most...

    Virginia: Richmond Half- pretty scenery, early November so it’s not terribly cold yet, great downhill into the finish line or Shamrock Half Marathon- fast and flat in Virginia Beach, weather is unpredictable and it can get incredibly windy during certain parts, 4 beer tickets

    Marathon Weekend 2020

    SAFD: Satuli; Nomad Lounge if that counts too. Granted I only got the grilled cheese and tomato soup off the kids menu at Woody’s Lunch Box, but it was really, really good and hit the spot on a cold day.
