That's great! I don't think I need race specific shirts but would love to come home with some branded gear!

No, but I do a lot of work in Florida and have been warned. :) Our plan for the trip is "get out early, get back to hotel by early-mid afternoon, go out again." this is why we a) got park hoppers, for more evening flexibility and b) are staying at the BC, with a great pool and easy access to...

Thanks! I think we will find something to eat at HS---lots of great suggestions on this thread. I like the idea of Sci-Fi for the theming but now I feel like I have some other choices. I agree that going back and forth will be a lot. We're staying at BC, so have other opportunities for the food...

Hi, I'm a runner headed to Disney with my family in late summer. It's our first family trip, so we didn't time it for a rundisney event. But I'd love to come home with some runDisney running gear--now those are souvenirs I would use when I got home! Can you buy rundisney gear not during race...

Thanks! I just checked out the menu, and you are absolutely right--that would be a great option. I don't mind paying for TS if I can keep the cost reasonable and it seems like it would be part of making eating at Disney an experience (I am thinking of the Skipper Canteen at Magic Kingdom for the...

So, I gather that the QS options at HS are subpar. It's even more complicated for us, because we are vegetarians (who eat fish), so even more limited. We're not looking for fancy meals this trip, but also don't want to eat pizza for 5 days (husband is low carb, etc). We're going in August, which...

Hi, So, I am trying to figure out how to do Epcot. The 7 year old is a Frozen fanatic, and we want to do the character breakfast at Akurshus and FEA. But then I am not sure how to get in Soarin and Test Track without waiting forever in line. We're going in late August, so yes I am planning a...

Yes, thank you! That was a great suggestion, I've been in touch with the August 2017 board. I'm also wondering about the free dining--doing a moderate like CSR and waiting for the free dining plan, which I would then upgrade to the deluxe plan (we eat a lot). That seems like a very good deal for...

Is the free dining something you add to an existing reservation or you book a new one once it is announced?

That's great to know! I thought I would need to book our tickets and hotel 6 months out, but actually, I just need our hotel.

Yes, that's what I am hearing a lot, especially for the character meals. I thought that was just hype but friends of mine said they weren't able to do one because they waited to book their meals.

Thanks!

Thank you! I've spent some time on mousesavers, but didn't know about the Unofficial Guide. There is so much to think about. I feel like I need to have it nailed down in the next 6 weeks, we're going the last week of August and I want to be able to make restaurant reservations.

See, this is what makes me think I have a lot to learn! Do you recommend any of the tour planning sites? I have no idea how long each ride takes, how to play out our days, when to make advanced reservations for food, etc? People resort hop for the restaurants? The pools? The different dinner...

Thanks! I am feeling a little overwhelmed. I assume because of the August heat, we're going to want the option of going early to a park, coming back to the resort for the afternoon, and then going out again, but worried that all the back and forth will take forever.

Yeah, the heat in August is going to be a pain. But with our girls not back in school until after Labor Day, it seemed like a good idea to try to go at a less crowded time.

Same here! We are going in August, and would love to book one of the Deluxes in the Epcot area.

Hi! We're going to Disney for the first time at the end of August, 2017, right before Labor Day. Kids are 7 and 9, older one wants to do everything Star Wars, younger one is into Frozen. The Epcot Food and Wine Festival starts August 31, which is a big draw for me. My husband has been pushing...
