    Destinations Discovered. Still include Illuminations viewing?

    Well they have just changed the tour to no longer include lunch, but it did say there's a "special festival experience" or something strange like that since we aren't doing it during a festival....so I assume that actually means illuminations is still included and the only change is dropping...

    AP lines. Sometimes longer than regular?

    AK in december (and early Jan) was the first time I have seen people truly turned away from the AP line who did not have passes. I go fairly regularly and had seen them asking but not really enforcing. One day lines were insane (it was the last blockout day in Jan) and there was not one person...

    Epcot DestiNations Tour — upcoming changes? WARNING CANCELLATIONS

    Interesting, we have already done the tour 2-3 years ago and loved it, I'm a little skeptical of the change but nothing to do about it besides see how it is. I will say the lunch seemed kind of unnecessary because it ended up being basically at the end of the tour anyway. As long as the rest is...

    Epcot DestiNations Tour — upcoming changes? WARNING CANCELLATIONS

    My mom received that message too, but I did not (we are booked separately) she received a $54 refund but not sure yet if it’s for the two of them or all 5 of us booked. I’d love to know what the length and snack is now if you find out anything. Also forgot to mention, ours is booked in June.

    Taste of Magic Kingdom VIP Tour

    I actually just canceled this tour today we had planned for June due to pretty poor reviews. We like tours that get a little more immersive, more backstage, more info....lack of headsets, running from one location to another over a 3 hour period, does not sound very VIP to me, and with no...

    FastPass+ FAQ — SERVICE SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

    I have a question, I did not see it in the main post but forgive me if so.... My kids will be at WDW April 12-22, as AP holders, offsite. So of course, they can hold 7 days of FP with a 30 day window. The issue is, we are also all going to be onsite June 15-23 and our 60 day window opens up...

    Tell me how bad Christmas week really is.

    yes, crowds will be much worse. We are here from mid-dec to early jan typically and no other crowd level compares to that week. The number of people is simply amazing. That being said, by far the worst is magic kingdom. You may want to plan for less time there if crowds are an issue for your...

    Tell me about odds of getting fastpasses in July with NO resort reservation?

    We are here for 3 weeks and do most fps the night before. The only rides I haven't managed to get are mine ride and the pandora rides. We come enough that we aren't too worried about what we get on or not, but since the crackdown just happened it seems I can even get most tough fps on the same...

    Wearing a sundress to the parks - any issues you've come across?

    I pretty much only wear dresses and the one ride that is iffy is space mountain... just have to concentrate a little harder on not flashing the world.

    Just Back - All my questions answered

    Glad you had a great time, we arrived same time and are here for a bit more still....I feel so bad for first timers and people who visit rarely as there has been SO. MUCH. RAIN. but it is true! You can have a great time even when weather does not cooperate.

    Flights of Passage and Disney Officially Suck

    We are here now and I've ridden flight of passage 4 times now I think. We were evacuated one time, and they immediately scanned our bands and added fop fastpasses, and another pass for any other ride (we used it for the river ride). We also have only waited about an hour-90 minutes. We have...

    DD just diagnosed w/scoliosis. Any advice?

    Both of my kids have scoliosis. One is braced, one is not yet. 20 degrees may still be in watch and wait mode. My kids are X-rayed every 4 months. My sons double curve is so high, his most recent brace is doing nothing. It may be we just have to wait and see how bad it gets. He does have a...

    Does anyone have a child with scoliosis?

    My son has scoliosis. Has your daughter started her period? The biggest concern with a curve is how much more it will go before growth stops. If she has a lot of growth left, that is a lot more concerning than if she started her period 2 years ago and is basically done skeletal growth. Right now...

    Plantar fasciitis??

    My almost 10 year daughter has had plantar fasciitis since she was 7. She is a competitive dancer and spends hours on the hard dance floor every week. Hands down the best treatment for her has been good shoes with arch support inserts. She wears saucony shoes more than anything else.....she...

    Downton Abbey Fans!

    Do you have a roku? I highly recommend one! You can then simply get the PBS app and watch it the next day. I don't have prime so can't answer that one.

    Healthy smoothie recipes?

    A favorite of my kids that I make in my vitamix (not sure how big the nutribullet is but probably need to at least halve) is: 2 cups frozen fruit (tropical mix, strawberries, whatever, organic is best!) 1/2 banana (I usually keep these peeled and frozen in the freezer) 1 cup non-dairy milk (we...

    EPO vs. PPO Health Insurance ???

    We have been on an EPO plan with united healthcare for almost 2 years. I have not come across a situation yet where I've had a doctor that wasn't covered. It's always a worry to me, but it was a lower premium cost, lower copay, lower deductible, lower out of pocket max....really a no-brainer...

    Netflix?

    I can say we for sure have more than six devices on netflix. 2 iphones, 2 iPods, 1 ipad, 2 3ds, Xbox, bluray, and 2 roku boxes, and a nook. Now it's possible some were grandfathered in or something but we have yet to hit a limit. They are all on one wifi if that matters, and I devices share one...

    The Walking Dead on AMC

    This is what I thought. I just can't believe carol would really kill them, and she is just taking her protection of the girls to the extreme. She said she would look over them as if they were her kids....I certainly believe she would cover for the girls bc she takes her loyalty and caring that...
