Sure! I was looking every day for one for august so….I took the hint


Really excited for a place where we can fill each other in on special happenings, dates, hopefully EMH….

[LisL]

[hail_eris]

Sometime lurker who just created an account (because I want to be able to see uploaded images). First visit to DL, and we (me, SO, 12 YO son) will be in the parks August 3-5, going DL, DCA, DL. Staying at the Home 2 Suites. Got my Oga's reservations booked this morning and hoping to grab one of the Fantasmic dining packages for our last day in DL.

We're going all in with the Galaxy's Edge experiences on day one (droids and lightsabers - we're a Star Wars family), so I'm guessing there will be a trip back to the hotel for me in the afternoon.

 

[grace&philipsmom]

We will be staying at DLH from August 3-7, its our first time and we are super excited!

 

[disnikki08]

We will only be there one day, August 17th, at DCA for rope drop. First visit with family and they really just want to see Avengers Academy.

We’re staying at the Marriott Newport Coast Villas for the week but VGC for one night (wait list came through!).

Still trying to decide if I’ll buy Genie+, if we’ll need it that time of year.

I love this! The first thing that stands out to me is doing Oga’s at 9:05, you get 45 min right? But the fireworks start at 9:30, it would be nice to be in Galaxys Edge/Oga’s around that time….but 25 min IN Oga’s wouldn’t be enough so…maybe the 6:30pm is the better option

Lamplight is amazing! They have great drinks!
I’d say Jolly Holiday is my favorite place to grab breakfast after spending some early hours in Fantasyland
