    The best Disney money I’ve ever spent. I’ve done it twice. Just fantastic from beginning to end.

    Three Bridges is another good choice at Coronado. It is a similar set up to Geyser Point.

    Official 2021 Disney Very Merriest After Hours Thread

    We had such a disappointing time on Thursday the 19th. Just catching up on the thread and glad to know I’m not making something out of nothing. It was my daughters birthday and all she asked to do. Such a bummer and really clouded my thinking on the the trip.

    Which standby lines most affected by Genie+?

    On Sunday morning we had to skip our Seven Dwarfs DAS return time. The line was so long - around the mountain - to enter the lightning lane. We were headed to the airport so we couldn’t get stuck there. We didn’t run into anything others over the past few days that were too crazy.

    “When everyone is super, no one will be.” ...Welcome to Genie+

    I just don't see this happening. Once I had exhausted my three FP, I always got on my phone as soon as we entered the line on the third FP and grabbed my next one. It took less than a minute. [

    Can we talk about how Difficult Disney Vacations are becoming

    I think they may be eventually be easier. I do not love park ressies or hopping at two. I hope that eventually goes away, but it may not. I hope 180 day ressies never come back. I think 60 is plenty. This Genie+ thing doesn't bother me at all. Its been a couple, of years in the making. There is...

    If you were considering the Christmas After Hours before pricing came out, are you still going?

    I'm on the fence. Actually, I am a NO after seeing the pricing. However, DH and daughter want to do it. It is her birthday trip and she is an adult that will pay for her own party ticket. I just think its outrageous. I am not buying today though. I want to wait and see the new paid fastpass...

    Official 2021 Disney Very Merriest After Hours Thread

    I completely agree. It is really one or the other - rides with no waits OR entertainment. The price for four hours is steep.

    Gideon's Bakehouse - what's the fuss about?

    I did not expect these to be worth the hype for me. I'm pretty jaded when it comes to everyone liking something and their being ridiculous waits. When I finally tried it in May, I loved it! Mine was chocolate/chocolate chip and was nice and soft and cooked perfectly . I ate it over the course of...

    Recommendations for large family trip?

    We have rented an airbnb for a multi generational trip. We had 6 adults, 3 kds, 3 college kids. It was a six bedroom with a pool and we paid around $1400. for 6 nights. This was a couple of years ago While we prefer staying on property, this was a good alternative for our large group!

    There have been no restrictions via Disney transport. We have visited lots of resorts over the past few trips this year.

    Quick Breakfast Ideas

    We get fruit/muffins/granola bars for the room. We eat that while getting ready or on the way to the bus. Morning time is too precious at the parks to waste on getting food there!

    READ POST 1 & 2 FIRST-Rise of the Resistance Boarding Group Planning and Information-*No Spoilers*

    Hard! At least for me. Even with doing all the same things- following all known tips- I am two for two. Actually, I have never gotten it myself. My friend got it for us one trip and my husband got it another.
