    Hoping for DL 2025- but WWYD?

    Thanks! Actually, cash rooms aren't available right now, either, but once they are, I will likely follow your advice.

    In Praise of Quieter Restaurants —help me with the list!

    Primo Piatto at Riviera. They have some outdoor seating just outside, and also some tables down by the water. I've always found it to be a lovely, peaceful setting.

    Hoping for DL 2025- but WWYD?

    My sister and I did the Princess weekend 2023 as our first Disney race weekend. It was a great new experience, and we knew we wanted to try another one. In the meantime, my now 8 yr old nephew has gotten into it, and has been asking about wanting to do a Disney race. The main issue is taking...

    Polynesian to Grand Floridian with Luggage

    We are staying on the monorail loop here in a few weeks, doing a split stay. I'm trying to formulate how to get from the Poly over to Grand Floridian. The walkway, I'm sure will still be closed at that point. The next logical step would be the monorail. I know luggage isn't allowed on Disney...

    Disneyland Halloween Half Marathon Weekend 2024

    I lucked into a waitlist a few weeks ago, but it was only for one night. I knew my chances at the 7 month mark would be dicey, but I hoped that the fact that I was going for a 1 or 2 BR would give me at least a slight chance. Good luck to you on the 5K!

    Disneyland Halloween Half Marathon Weekend 2024

    So jealous. But congrats. We are looking at Disneyland next January. We'd like to stay at VGC but it's already sold out, for those days, for the most part. And, we are even looking at 1 and 2 BRs. Which the 1 and 2 BRs are pretty widely available at that point....with the exception of that...

    Disneyland 5K Spectators

    I've been looking at hopefully doing the Disneyland 5K next year. I've been watching videos, reading posts, looking at the maps. All that fun stuff. Presuming the 5K follows the same route as previous years...it ends inside the park (DCA), which I think is so cool. But, it makes me wonder...

    Where to watch the Kentucky Derby

    I'd try City Works Pour House at Disney Springs. They have tons of TVs, so I have to imagine they would have one of them on the Derby. Four Seasons used to do a watch party, but I am not sure if they do it anymore. Another option would be to find a quiet bar/lounge on property and ask if...

    Wow...Easiest ADRs ever?

    Sorry I think I'm out of the loop. What are you referring to?

    1900 Park Fare Reopening April 10

    I've been stalking 1900 for Memorial Day as well, for weeks. No luck. My sister is going in June, and had no problem finding availabilities.

    Let’s talk fried chicken sandwiches!!

    I've never been but I know the Turtle Shack at Old Key West has a fried chicken sandwich that people like. I have had the buttermilk chicken at Olivia's and it was quite nice, so if it's similar, I think it would probably be a hit. My uncle raves about the fried chicken sandwich at the Paddock...

    Memorial Day Weekend Meal

    Thanks guys! My only concern with Hoop Dee Doo is the noise. My mom has hearing issues. She is basically deaf without her hearing aids. The hearing aids are a huge help, but they can get a little glitchy, especially when there is interference coming through. Even with the hearing aids, her...

    Memorial Day Weekend Meal

    Good afternoon, pals! My mom and I are visiting for a quick Memorial Day weekend trip. I was able to get some excellent airfare, and had some DVC points to burn, so...decided to go for it, even though it will be a quick trip. We will be staying at the Polynesian one night and Grand Floridian...

    What happened to the fritter pillows? Are they a thing of the past?

    1900 Park Fare Reopening April 10

    I'm sorry but this is absolutely terrible news. People have been begging for 1900 Park Fare back. Begging. And Disney knows this. Were people begging for 1900 Park Fare for the food? Maybe in small part. But, mostly it was for the characters and the interactions they know and love. So, like...

    One day in Disneyland- picking my "Battles"

    I'm now wondering if I should take a late bus up tonight, and at least get there. Even if it means double paying for a hotel room.

    One day in Disneyland- picking my "Battles"

    Oh great. Driving in a place I have no familiarization of, in torrential rain, in the dark......that sounds perfect. So, I have my Lyft set up for 4:40 am. I would probably leave about there if I was driving too. Does this sound reasonable? Or should I leave even earlier?

    One day in Disneyland- picking my "Battles"

    I wouldn't be parking at Disneyland, as I have my rental car dropoff scheduled for early AM. So, essentially, I will be dropping off there first before I head to drop my bags off at the resort. Yes, Lyft is not cheap. But, between the price of the car, the cost to park here in SD, rideshare to...

    One day in Disneyland- picking my "Battles"

    I wish I had thought about parking at VGC sooner. I don't know why I didn't. Unfortunately, I have the car rented for tonight, which means I have to worry about parking here in San Diego as well. I just looked into what my options are to rent starting tomorrow morning till Weds, and I could...

    One day in Disneyland- picking my "Battles"

    Hey everyone! It's the day before, and I have been reading and re-reading this thread to get a game plan for tomorrow. The weather is definitely the X factor here, as with the impending rain, it could affect my plans a lot or a little. So...while I have a general plan...I am well aware that...
