    Non-LA California residents, how often do you go to DL?

    How busy is Disneyland and California Adventure Park during the Thanksgiving weekend? We plan to go for the first time this year.

    Minnie's Seasonal Dining at hollywood and vine vs Be Our Guest

    During our trip last month, we had the pleasure of dining at both BOG for dinner and Minnie's Seasonal Dine at H&V. We did the Fantasmic Dining Package at H&V, and it was totally worth it! You'll find many reviews of H&V that are not favorable, but I do believe those were from before they added...

    Tiffins... Not for me

    I am curious to find out what you ate too, since you disliked Tiffins, but we loved it.

    Dr. said no Disney :(

    I'm so sorry. I totally understand your disappointment. However, the health of your baby and yourself is priority right now. Enjoy your pregnancy and the excitement of welcoming a newborn! They grow very quickly, and in no time, you will be able to visit WDW as a family!

    Which Wolfgang Puck express at Disney Springs?

    Definitely the one in Marketplace! On the day we arrived in Florida, we checked into our resort in the late afternoon and headed to DS for the evening. We ate at Wolfgang Puck's Marketplace, and it was a great way to start our trip, as far as dining! If you're on the DDP, it is an excellent use...

    8am Surprise Opening Spoil your 8am ADR??

    Well, it certainly was a "surprise" for us! They must have changed the hours only a week in advance. We were in Florida for 9 days, 10 nights. I KNOW I checked the hours just prior to leaving on our trip, but I wasn't checking daily, while in Florida. Honestly, I wasn't expecting Disney to...

    Best birthday dinner on one DDP credit?

    We had dinner at BOG and loved it! Definitely a wonderful place to enjoy your birthday dinner for one DDP TS credit! The ambiance is beautiful, and meeting the Beast was fun! Several restaurants did acknowledge my birthday, due to my wearing the Happy Birthday pin. However, the best and most...

    8am Surprise Opening Spoil your 8am ADR??

    We didn't have an ADR for breakfast, but while we were there last month (early June), one of our MK days had a surprise 8am opening. We already planned to meet my sister and family at the AoA shuttle stop at 8am, thinking MK would open at 9am. However, I was watching TV in our room while getting...

    Best quick service at MK

    We wanted to go to Columbia Harbor House, but ended up doing Pecos Bill and Cosmic Ray's instead for the two days we were at MK. Both places were great! Columbia Harbor House next time, for sure!

    DDP or no?

    Yes, just wanted to verify that the 2017 DDP participating restaurants won't be official until early 2017. We went to WDW last month, and I was anxiously awaiting the 2016 DDP updated participating restaurant list. I swear it didn't come out right away, probably a week or two into the new year...

    Tusker House Characters

    We gave up Tusker House dinner for Tiffins on our trip last month, so I know we'll definitely include it on our next trip (whenever that is!). Just hope the characters will continue to appear for all three meals.

    If you had to choose ONE character meal.......

    I know you mentioned not wanting to spend too much, but if you and/or your in-laws also want to take in Fantasmic at DHS, then I would definitely recommend Minnie's Seasonal Dinner at H&V. I know there are some not so good reviews for the buffet/service there, but I really feel that was prior to...

    Dining Plan Question

    We converted several QS meal credits to snack credits, bringing food items as souvenirs for friends and family back home. Not the best use of a QS credit, but definitely better not using them at all. We also got the Chip & Dale trail mixes and LOTS of rice krispy treats in various designs.

    Are we being snowed by posted wait times?

    But my niece is 20 years old! She does look young, but definitely not a youngster! :)

    Where have you had success trading a QS credit for 3 snacks?

    Interesting! Well, I don't think that would ever happen for us (we'll probably always have extra QS meal credits), but good to know that it's possible!

    Teppan Edo Question

    Just wanted to mention that many ramen restaurants in the US are owned and operated by Japanese natives and strive to be authentic, but they have fried rice on their menu. So to the OP, I think you had a valid question. As for Teppan Edo, we loved it! Most in my party of 8 (two families of 4)...

    Are we being snowed by posted wait times?

    My niece was given the card a few times during our recent trip. Don't know whey she always got picked from all 8 of us. We all told her she's special. We used touring plans lines app and found that to be fairly accurate. My DH was posting actual wait times occasionally. In most cases, the...

    Fitting everything in at HS is a struggle!

    OK, so it wasn't just me that thought RnRC was not smooth. I kept my head back too, but I was wondering if that caused me to hit my head during the ride. :worried:

    Some Interesting Tidbits and Tips from a Recent WDW Trip

    Thanks for your insight. We are WDW novices, having only been there twice in 5 years. We were there early last month (June 2016), and honestly, I didn't think it was all that crowded, at least not as bad as I expected. However, I thought perhaps my perspective was biased, because we had been to...

    Pokemon GO In the Parks?

    I really need to show my DDS this thread. They've been obsessed with catching these Pokemon thingys, ever since the game was introduced.
