    Hollywood and Vine in November

    Interesting, maybe it is all booked. The women on the reservation line was also surprised that there wasn’t any availability at any meal during all seven days of our trip. I guess I’ll keep checking. I’m especially surprised given how easy it was to get reservations I thought were the hard ones...

    Hollywood and Vine in November

    I am going to be down the week following Thanksgiving and I tried to book Hollywood and Vine for lunch or dinner, they had no openings the whole week I’m there. (Meanwhile I got Ohana and Storybook with my choice of times.) I was even on the phone with the reservations line, the very helpful...

    •The Official COPPER CREEK VILLAS & CABINS Owners & Lovers Group•

    My husband and I are looking to buy our first DVC at CCV. I have spent some months trying to figure out everything. I have a very random question, how far are the villas from all the ameneties such as the food court, the pool, the bus stop.

    Official Disney Cake Chatter - Part IV! (2012-2016)

    I leave for my trip on Friday. We have a chocolate cake with a Haunted Mansion theme being delivered to Hollywood Brown Derby on Monday. It's been relatively easy to set it up and I'm hoping it works out. If I don't post a picture while I'm down there I will post when I get back. I'm very excited.

    "Official" 2016 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Trick or Treat Fun

    I have been to the Halloween party many times and usually am pretty good at planning out my time. This year between my sister and my niece I'm not exactly sure how to handle what they both what to see. My original plan had been to watch the Hocus Pocus show from a location where we could also...

    Official Disney Cake Chatter - Part IV! (2012-2016)

    I had been looking for a Haunted Mansion cake and this was perfect timing. I hope you don't mind I used your picture as the inspiration for my Dad's birthday cake for the end of the month. Hollywood Studios is going to do something similar for me. My idea had always been the ghosts and wallpaper...

    Official Disney Cake Chatter - Part IV! (2012-2016)

    I wanted to report back. The Hollywood Brown Derby gave me a different number (one I don't see listed anywhere here) to call. I spoke with the women there and explained to her that I wanted a Haunted Mansion themed birthday cake. She told me my options were to either get a cake with a screen...

    Am I the only adult scared of rides

    I have to say in my opinion none of those rides are along the same level as Mission to Mars. I enjoy roller coasters but HATE Mission to Mars. I think I did the intense version when it first came out and then a few years ago did the less intense version. I HATE IT! I want to like it which is why...

    Official Disney Cake Chatter - Part IV! (2012-2016)

    This thread is so helpful. There are 9 of us going down and we are going to get a cake for my dad's birthday. I will be calling tonight to see if I can get a fancier cake delivered to Hollywood Brown Derby so I'll have to report back as it doesn't seem anyone else has done this recently. If I...

    no luggage tags?

    I'm going to be calling today to talk to someone. (The flu had me knocked out the last few days.) I'll report back after but I did read that you can get them at the front desk when you check in. Kind of seems to defeat the purpose to me but if I don't get them before we check in I'll probably do...

    no luggage tags?

    We didn't receive ours either and we have a package booked. Its interesting to hear we weren't the only ones.

    Best Character meal for a large group?

    My group was not as large (10 people) but we did both Crystal Palace and Ohana last year. We LOVED the set up for Ohana. There was plenty of room at the tables, the character interaction for my nieces was amazing and the food was yummy. My niece still talks about how Lilo danced with her and how...

    "Official" 2016 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Trick or Treat Fun

    When we went to the party last year we had this exact problem. Got there and couldn't get into the party because the tickets weren't showing. My mom didn't have the printed voucher so she needed the credit card she bought them on to help them find them. It took well over an hour for the process...

    Rides for my little man(age 4 when travel)

    My niece was 4 on our last trip to Disney World. She HATED both the Muppet 3-d ride and Mickey's Philharmagic. We were nervous when she said she wanted to ride 7 Dwarves Mine Train but she LOVED it. We think the 3-D shows were too loud for her which we didn't think of before. She'll be 5 when we...

    Beaches and Cream

    Thanks everyone. There are 9 of us going and the last two or so trips we got a reservation. It's my mom's favorite for the the feel of it and it reminds her of a place she went as a kid. I'm going to focus on just getting her and my dad in, we can take a year off and just let them go if it helps...

    Beaches and Cream

    Thanks everyone. I know the restaurant well, we eat here every trip. I think I was surprised because we've never had problems getting a reservation!

    Beaches and Cream

    I tried to make reservations as soon as I was able to make them. Then when I still couldn't get them I tried again for two instead of four, still nothing. Is there something going on here the last week in October that I wouldn't be able to get reservations at all?

    Marathon Weekend 2016

    So about two weeks ago I ran a half marathon with no problems, last night at crossfit I had to run a mile and I almost passed out. I felt dizzy and I was having trouble focusing. I'm not too worried about it because I've never had this problem but boy was it frustrating last night knowing that...

    Marathon Weekend 2016

    Was it the Harwich Cranberry Half? I keep wanting to do that one but it never lines up well with my schedule. What part of the state do you live in?

    Marathon Weekend 2016

    I've never seen his videos so thanks for posting. The Marathon one is a good reminder about what I chose Disney for my first. I also watched the Avengers Half video and was reminded just how bad that wind was. Nothing like grit and dirt in the water at water stops. Not having to do with...
