    Pets - options for a) pet care/pet sitting or b) activities we can enjoy with pet (in Orlando/Lake Buena Vista/Central FL)

    I’m curious when your dogs stay was. We previously boarded our dog many times before the pandemic at Best Friends and got periodic picture and email updates. We also visited most everyday for play time with her. Then we boarded her summer 2023 and got no pictures or updates. Not even a welcome...

    No Christmas mugs at resorts this year?

    Thank you. I’m sad that holiday mugs have been discontinued. We loved getting them. I hope Disney brings them back! I did some googling and it seens the last time there was a new design for refillable holiday mugs was 2019 and they used the same one for 2020, then nothing more I could find. 😢

    No Christmas mugs at resorts this year?

    Just back from our pre-Christmas trip. We visited 10 resorts to see holiday decorations. Didn’t see a single Christmas refillable mug for sale anywhere. None of the cm’s we asked knew if they were getting them in. A few said probably not. Disappointed as we always purchase. Has anyone seen any?

    We just used a handicapped taxi to get dropped at Caribbean Beach for Sebastian’s Bistro on 12/7/23. The gate guard required us to show our ressie to enter the resort.

    WDW Summary of NEW DAS changes and Disney Genie - Post ONE is an updated summary

    I recently renewed my DAS on a Monday for Friday of the same week. I wasn’t offered any advanced rides, and I didn’t realize it until we had ended the call. I wasn’t really interested in that anyway because I didn’t have firm plans on what time frame we would be visiting the park.

    Looking For Local Nail Salon

    I got the best manicure and pedicure I’ve had in years at the spa at the Bonnet Creek Grand Wyndham hotel in June. They use great products! Make an appointment ahead of time.

    Monthly dues reminder email.

    Yes, I also got 2 email reminders (we have 1 contract, many years using auto pay) for the first time which I thought were a bit strangely worded. A reminder is a good thing, just send 1 email next time please :)

    Ideas for Christmas Day 2023

    As far as I know, you can do a sleigh ride at Fort Wilderness with just your party. Is that changed for 2023?

    NYC for 1 day

    I agree the Statue of Liberty tour takes a long time. Instead of that I suggest visiting Battery Park then taking the Staten Island ferry (free). I also really enjoy the hop on hop off bus tours, ride on the top, see a lot of sites in relatively short amount of time. Get off near a location that...

    Overbooked at Boardwalk and moved barely without asking?

    This isn’t new, happened to us in the past at Boardwalk, about 15 years ago. We were switched from a room at the Inn that slept 5 to a room at The Villas that slept 4 without being notified when we checked in at the front desk. I was angry, it was rude, and I had no where to sleep our 5th person...

    POR--Royal Princess Room or Preferred?

    One year when my dd was about 5 years old we stayed in building 85 Parterre Place in room at the end of the building. After a day at a park we got off the bus at the main building to stop at the food court then walked to our room. On the walk my dd asked me why Disney didn’t like us anymore…I...

    Yes, in the past at least. Haven’t used any pool showers since covid.

    Questions about ECV's at Disney

    The most important aspect of a scooter for me personally is portability because we visit offsite restaurants, shopping, and attractions, and sometimes rent a car to get around. Golds says on their website that the GoGo Scooter has half the battery life of their regular Victory scooter. The...

    Christmas Magicband

    I bought several holiday magic band skins on Etsy for magic bands we already own. I had bought a holiday magic band in the original style, the price now is just too much.

    Questions about ECV's at Disney

    We were just at disney and i always rent an ecv from an offsite vendor (I’ve used Apple Scooter the last few trips). Disney has a preferred vendor that I believe is the only one allowed to leave and pickup the ecv without you being present. Definitely get an ecv that can be disassembled if...
