    Passport offices

    I went on Friday to get mine done for a cruise in December - renewal. I was able to do the 'express' option and have been told it will be mailed out to me on October 24th - I live in Burlington and watched the wait times on the Service Canada site for a week to decide where to go - ended up...

    *The Official VILLAS AT DISNEY'S GRAND FLORIDIAN RESORT & SPA Owners & Lovers Group*

    Forgive my ignorance but what is this "Welcome Home"? We are new owners, and have our first stay booked at VGF but it's not until late spring next year - I'm assuming "Welcome Home" is your first stay and ensuring it's at your home resort? Again, forgive my ignorance - still learning all the...

    Have you been to Disney this year and did anyone in your party get COVID?

    Got home 9 days ago, and no covid for either person in my travelling party. No masking (it was too flippin hot) except in the airport and onboard the flights (flew SW out of Buffalo and we were part of like 5% of people on board with masks - KN95s for both of us) and spent most time outdoors...

    Christmas in Disney - 2019 - 2 weeks, no dining plan

    Ok. Nobodys in Disney right now. I'm not going back anytime soon. I'm sure a lot of Christmas trips are getting cancelled....so what better time than now to update (and maybe even finish out?) my report? I realized in squandering perfectly good quarantine time by not updating this - I'm...

    Christmas in Disney - 2019 - 2 weeks, no dining plan

    I've been driving myself crazy trying to figure out how to write this part of my review. Lets just call it "the good, the bad, and the ugly....and the kids meals" So we went over to Universal Orlando for one night. We got a great rate for one night at Royal Pacific, so we booked that for the...

    Christmas in Disney - 2019 - 2 weeks, no dining plan

    Thanks!! Thank you! I can't recall 100%, but I'm pretty confident they do have mashed potatoes. I was more interested in loading up one of their baked potatoes though - yum yum! It truly was! We've done Christmas before, 2 years ago, and we felt 2019 was WAY busier than 2017 Thanks for...

    Christmas in Disney - 2019 - 2 weeks, no dining plan

    Lunch today, we were planning on just getting some Hollywood Studios quick service....but for some reason we just weren't feeling it. We decided to try our luck as a walk-in at Mama Melrose and to our surprise they actually have that front bar area reserved for walk-ins. Eat here at your own...

    Christmas in Disney - 2019 - 2 weeks, no dining plan

    I'm going to try and do a double dip post today and post two days back to back....lets see if I can get it done before the real world catches up with me lol. Today was a double-hit of new dining spots for us. Or technically a triple hit, since we were at MK and feeling peckish! We knew we had...

    I can do a cake at either tea at the Grand Floridian or delivered to our room at Boardwalk Inn - which bakery is going to give us a tastier cake?

    Disney's Club Level (CL) Information & Questions

    What room category did you have again? Also, are the Friendship boats obnoxious or can you not hear them with the door closed?

    Kennedy Space Center Excursion

    Honestly, we didn't do the ship excursion and just got an Uber there and bought tickets when we arrived. We got to do everything we wanted and saved a significant amount over what the excursion would have cost us. It's very easy to get to/from the ship at that port.

    Dining on Anthem of the Seas

    We were so sad when they got rid of Dynamic Dining. It was really great - the different menus made it feel like specialty dining every night for us. We LOVED Silk as it was then. Sigh. The good ol days....four years ago lol.

    9 night Ultimate Norwegian Fjords

    Not on that cruise, but jealous that you are! Done Anthem twice - love it. Its a great ship with some really nice dining options, and lots of activity if you want it as well as great spots to relax if that's what you're looking for. I also love the shows on it - the entertainment is great!

    Christmas in Disney - 2019 - 2 weeks, no dining plan

    Today was our Rise of the Resistance attempt. We didn't book any dining because we weren't sure how things would go over in HS - so it was a QS dining day! I LOVE QS dining days once in a while, my gut thanks me for it lol. To attempt RotR, we set our alarms for 430am and had called for a...

    Christmas in Disney - 2019 - 2 weeks, no dining plan

    Dinner on that day, we planned in Magic Kingdom. Since we had Christmas Party tickets for that day, we planned on going to the park at 4 and not using a park ticket. We were able to get in early, and do 3 fastpasses and dinner before we went to go line up for the Seven Dwarves photo op. We...

    Christmas in Disney - 2019 - 2 weeks, no dining plan

    Welcome welcome! I have much good food to show you :love: I'm terrible at writing intros - so I'll just give the nitty gritty details: We had a 2 week trip to WDW for Christmas, the week before and the week of the holiday. The crowds were beyond bananas, it was way worse than when we went in...
