    Looking for help on how to slow things down/conflict resolution

    I was the planner for a trip in Sept-Oct 2021 (over the 50th itself) with (DH, myself, and our then 18 month old in his first trip), my parents, DH's parents and my brother and his girlfriend. My in-laws are DVC/AP, my parents/brother far from newbies but hadn't been in 5+ years. I made it...

    Train from CDG-Disneyland

    We took the TGV on our trip and loved the experience. We didn't buy tickets in advance as our flight had a spotty arrival time. Once we found the right terminal, we were having trouble with the machines (I suspect because of our American credit card) so we waited to buy tickets from an actual...

    Lauren & George's Wishes Wedding- 12.01/16- WP/Attic *Updated 11/06: TR Day 6!

    Looooooove everything!! I almost wish I had done the generational wedding ring picture with my family, that would have been so cool! Your Boardwalk photos are just simply stunning. Oh my god your first look is just so lovely and sweet and perfect. Such an intimate moment and if you ask me just...

    Favorite Fantasy Server Team?

    Alfredo Mota from the Dominican Republic and Victoria.....don't remember but she's from Scotland. As two childless twenty somethings on our first cruise, they made us feel like royalty and were the perfect balance of helpful, suggestive, but not too pushy or over attentive. We especially lvoed...

    Cake from Erin McKenna's?

    I know of at least one bride who had her cake from Erin McKenna's (so that it was vegan and accommodating allergies), though I'm sorry I can't remember the flavor! I believe that EM is where Disney goes to for the allergy needs unless there's something there that they can't accommodate.

    I can't wait to see the adult areas! Especially considering the recent dry dock I'm really excited for the new updates (like Tiana's!)

    Merrytime Magic - A December 2016 Trip Report!

    Yay!! I'm so glad I returned to the DIS in time to catch another one of your trip reports! We're booked on the Wonder for December and especially since we've only been on the Fantasy, your TR was super helpful (if only to be prepared for cold water on Castaway Cay and disappointing Mixology - boo!)

    Galveston fogged in. Wonder can't dock

    Glad you still made your flight, and thanks for posting!! We're cruising out of Galveston in December and I'll definitely remember this when it comes to booking our flights home.

    An American Mouseketeer in Paris - July 2016 (New 1/11)

    Well, it looks like I owe everyone an apology! With my job I have pretty much two and a half straight months of business travel from Labor Day-mid November, and then with the holidays I essentially haven't been on the Disboards in almost 4 months. I do still want to finish this, so we'll keep at...

    Lauren & George's Wishes Wedding- 12.01/16- WP/Attic *Updated 11/06: TR Day 6!

    Yay rehearsal day!! It's always a nice change to see the difference when local brides post about their lead up to the wedding day. That's so awesome that your room was so close to The Attic, and you're seriously making me want to try Abracadabar on our next trip. Can't wait for the next day!!!

    Yayyyyyy you've started your TR! That'll be one thing that helps me remember to come back to the DIS lol. Yes, Kristie is the Queen of DFTW and I honestly have to say, I think I like Cricket's photos more now that she's left DFAP - yours are just stunning!! I love so much about all your details...

    Wow, the landscape of Alaska is just absolutely breathtaking. It's a shame the logistics of the float plane caused the two of you some injury, but what an amazing experience and what beautiful photos!

    Back up for Italy Isola west?

    Like rain back up for a dessert party? The American Adventure parlor is pretty commonly used if it's not booked itself.

    Anniversary cake!

    The only reason I would say order it from the restaurant is if you have Tables in Wonderland, because then the discount will apply on the cake. We ordered our 6-inch cake delivered to Narcoossee's, but we were so stuffed we couldn't touch it. It took 3 days for us to finish it off! Otherwise for...
