You know, everything you just wrote can be reversed... ;) "I really don't understand the big deal about MNSSHP. How is it different than any other day in MK? Sure, you get the special parade and free treats. But what makes it a "party"? Is it just the free treats and the parade? I absolutely...

Given that we typically wake up at around 7am (sometimes earlier), regardless of whether we're on vacation or not, "rope drop" isn't a big deal for us. My husband says he'd like to be able to sleep in, but he just can't seem to manage it. We're also not fans of big, heavy breakfasts, so we...

Just in case, keep your eyes open for a purple cat! :laughing:

I think the benefits of a dessert package are pretty obvious - desserts, canapes, and a good view for the fireworks, without having to fight crowds or stake out a spot. The real question you have to figure out is, "Why does this appeal to some people, but doesn't appeal to me?" And that's...

"Jersey Week". Public schools in New Jersey have the Thursday and Friday off in the first week of November, so a lot of parents grab the opportunity to take a family vacation. It's rumoured to increase crowds in the parks, but most of what I've read says that if there's any real impact, it's...

While I have sympathy for people struggling with the website (and I'm probably jinxing myself here), I don't think I would describe it as a "hot mess". In fact, except for some happily short-lived frustration when I was trying to book fastpasses along with everyone else last Tuesday morning and...

My husband is a senior civil servant in the Canadian gov't. Phoenix was the new payroll program, and... "glitch" isn't strong enough. "Ongoing catastrophe" may be a better description. It's affected almost all departments and has been in the news a lot. So, I've heard a lot of very cranky...

The first quote appears to be from another thread, which sometimes happens with multiquotes. However the second quote is in reply to the person directly above her, who said, "Don't worry about anyone passing judgement..." I read her reply to that as, "My son has been bullied enough in school...

Just Space Mountain, really. I tried it one more time, several years ago after the last "refurb" and got off with a pounding headache. Not fun at all! I prefer to get my Space Mountain experience via the Peoplemover. ;) I did Mission Space, Orange, and survived, but my husband felt nauseous...

Yay! I LOVE scavenger hunts! :banana: I figured they'd have one for Christmas, since they have them now for Food and Wine, Arts, and Flower and Garden, etc. So much fun!

Have a few more pics of teenagers at the Crystal Palace! (Dec 2011)

I completely understand where you are coming from! You can't help worrying, and wanting to protect them and make things better. I've felt the same way about several of our trips with our own son. Leading up to one trip, he had a number of health scares (including having to get tested at the...

If she's been to Epcot before, why not let her do the planning? Eleven year olds are great at that kind of thing. She'll be able to decide for herself which ones sound most interesting to her. Here's last year's Holiday entertainment schedule...

They can enjoy a lot of meals and souvenirs for that same 400 dollars. If you know money is tight for them, I don't think you should bring it up. My husband and I have enjoyed the party in the past, but it's unlikely we'll do it on this trip. Not because it isn't a heck of a lot of fun, but...

I'm glad you reported the glitch! That was definitely the responsible thing to do. Did you get to speak to an actual cast member? While you're correct that it is certainly a security breach, I do think it's a minor one. "Balances on resort stays..." Everyone pays something similar. "Where...

It was very thoughtful of you to go through and cancel all your fastpasses, especially if some of them were for popular rides. I think many people would just leave them and let them expire on the day of. As the previous post said, having a "delete all" button would probably cause more problems...

My husband and I only have one account for our family, as well. I expect most families would, unless they regularly take separate trips to Disney? If our son decides, someday, to take his girlfriend to Disney and pay for the trip himself, then I expect he'd create his own account at that...

The hardest to get FP right now is Slinky Dog Dash at Hollywood Studios. Magic Kingdom fastpasses are actually pretty easy to get, since there are lots and they're not tiered. I generally book MK fastpasses for the morning, since you can grab more on as soon as you've used up your first three...

I don't know if they could, since Disney annoyingly seems to make you log in again whenever you try to do anything on their site. (I only walked away for FIVE minutes! Why is my session expired???) But even if they could... Why would they? If you opened up a page to see someone else's plans...

You shouldn't have too much trouble, then! I found it much easier getting the times I wanted for FOP, than SDD. I think it's starting to settle down a little.
