Quite honestly, just plan your day at Epcot like you would if the festival isn't going on. Then, while there, if you see a booth you want to visit, do it. The booths are all over World Showcase and now have expanded into Future World so you will see many. I would also suggest getting an...

No one looks at a kid at the Food & Wine like it has a green head - or the parents either. It's just a addition of kiosks around World Showcase (and some in Future World) that sell food, wine and beer. Drinks are limited to two to one adult (ID should be had on person). It's not like the...

Agree. This year, I do have it off (I now work for a branch of a bank) but husband will be working. So, I get a day off at home and can turn over when the alarm goes off at 6:00 AM! :)

Just to note that on Soarin', you do go up in the air in your seat. While you don't fly, those with height perceptions can get a "shudder". It took me at least three trips to get adjusted to being "up high".

I was going to post this and wanted to mention that you don't even need to see the movie. You can go in there, and look at the displays on the wall or just sit on the benches.

Totally agree except ours are, ahem, much older. They are yellow. Once we get home, we just put the ponchos in the washer (delicate) and then hang them up to dry for the next trip. Tried the dollar ponchos and while are fine, don't last for an entire trip. And I'm not one to just throw...

Have you ever just gone into the seating area for the China movie? Air conditioned and you can see things. You don't have to stay for the show. Blessed in August. Going through shops is great. And my little hint that has actually had someone offer me $5 for it while there - I take a...

Let's just say that my husband and I end every single Disney day at Epcot no matter when we are there. And we seldom do Future World. So, for us, there is plenty to do at World Showcase without a festival. And we've been just about every month in the year. Check out an entertainment schedule...

I always carry a bag and so does my husband. We have never had more than a 5-10 minute wait (ten minutes being very extreme for us) and we've been over 60 times. Just be prepared by having the bag off your should/hip, all pockets (on the bag) opened and ready to go. Also, check who is in the...

Biergarten. with your two little ones, they (and you and everyone) can go out and have fun with the band and the food is good and varied so there's something for everyone. I would suggest that you make your reservation for about fifteen minutes before a show so you can be seated, get food and...

Just seeing the ceremony will be enough, trust me. Just trust me on that one.

My husband and I are two grown adults, our one child is grown, married and has three kids of his own and wouldn't take his group to anything but a counter service place at Disney World. HOWEVER, that's his choice (and it's because there are three of them so he and my daughter-in-law wouldn't be...

Quite honestly, if your father's service needs to be noticed to him, just do it yourself and not include him in the ceremony. I love the ceremony but your father might be more appreciative of it if he wasn't a part of the whole thing. Get there about about a half hour before it starts, sit on...

The only thing with the gorillas is if they are out and active, that window area can get very jammed so I'm a full grown adult but only stand 5 feet tall and have been shoved out of the way because someone *had* to get a photo of a momma gorilla with a baby and had to get it now! So be careful...

As I stated, dining establishments in the US require shoes. True, there are beach establishments that don't care but it is on a restaurant by restaurant basis. All Disney World restaurants require shoes as do the parks I never said there was a law and I am not going to get into semantics...

Totally agree and unless you don't plan on riding anything like that, shoes will be required on modes of transportation. And getting far, far, far away from GOOP comments, it's a safety issue. Doors close on feet all the time (trust me, I know) and there are foot "protection" pads all over the...

Nothing in this world stays the same. While animatronics are good, how long will it take to change them out when changes or updates are needed? The subject of using screens came up. Toy Story Mania can be changed overnight so the attraction never goes down. Is that "cheapening" an...

When you get to the waterpark, ask at the turn stiles where you can store the pens. The Cast Members there will know the exact answer on that day so no worries at all.

You can use the ones in the sit down restaurants if you ask at the entrance podium. BUT - only do that in a dire need as has been spoken about in this thread. Please do not just go up there because you (not the person I'm quoting here) don't want to walk to the next podium. I am talking...

Yep, that was our "problem" as well. We are just two adults and reuse our towels at home so why not on vacation? But, we always had new towels and we were out of the room usually before 11 and back usually around 6. Room was cleaned, trash tossed, beds made. In over 60 trips to Disney World...
