    Preferred Method from VGF to EPCOT

    I agree out of all the MK resorts I think Poly is the best location wise. Staying on the DVC side it is just as easy to walk to the TTC to go to Epcot or catch the express monorail to MK. Having a stroller makes trying to go the ceremonial house and use the tiny elevators not fun.

    Preferred Method from VGF to EPCOT

    VGF is really only convenient for MK. It is so far away from AK and DHS via bus and can take 25 minutes to get to those parks. Also, as previously stated, the monorail trip to Epcot can take up to 60 minutes. It is really not a great location personally.

    Preferred Method from VGF to EPCOT

    This is the problem with the GF in my opinion. It is really only quick to MK. Every other park is 20 minutes or longer and Epcot usually takes the longest with up to an hour depending on how the resort monorail is moving.

    Preferred Method from VGF to EPCOT

    Personally, if the walkway is open, I think walking to the TTC is probably 5 minutes quicker at least. When we stayed in 2019, I think it took us once about 50 minutes to get to Epcot from GF taking the monorail. I think it highly depends on when you go. If going mid afternoon it can take even...

    Disney World Christmas Theme - Lightest Crowds

    Just be aware if you go before thanksgiving, you won’t get to experience all the Christmas offerings or decorations may not be up everywhere.

    Thanksgiving 2024 Tips

    We have been to Disney world quite a few times for Thanksgiving. I would avoid MK on thanksgiving day and Epcot on Black Friday. Epcot starts the festival of the holidays on Friday so most who are leaving on Saturday go to Epcot to experience it. For traditional thanksgiving meal, you could...

    Car services with car seats

    We have used happy limo before and our youngest was 2 at the time and was in a car seat and our oldest was 4 and was in a booster. It all worked out well.

    BWV refurb is in full swing.

    We just booked a P/G view 2BR for Thanksgiving 2024. Do we think they will be done with everything by then?

    Someone Break My Heart....or ease my anxiety....

    I just booked a few days ago for thanksgiving week in 2024 and ALL studios except for P/G are gone. The 1BR are all available. We booked a 2BR P/G view. I tried for a boardwalk view but on my day the walkers had made it to where there were no boardwalk views even available. I don’t think you...

    Boardwalk Availability at 11 months

    I just booked a 2BR lockoff during thanksgiving week next year. I could tell people were walking reservations as a boardwalk view was not even available and the studio went right at opening. I’m fine with the garden/pool view due to being to be closer to the lobby due to walking issues in my...

    Why is Boardwalk 2 BR Villa the cheapest option?

    I have booked 2BR the last few years at BWV and the standard and boardwalk view go instantly at 8am. I can click on it right as my computer goes to 8am and I’ll get the that room is no longer available. I have also noticed it appears more people are walking reservations than before. It also does...

    I know 50s Prime Time in the past has had their blue plate special be a turkey dinner with all the fixings.

    Boardwalk or Beach Club

    I agree. It is 10 minutes from BW vs 5 minutes from BC, but I just don’t think it is great to walk all the way from BC to DHS like it is from BW. With teenagers they may want to do more walking and less waiting on transportation.

    Boardwalk or Beach Club

    Location wise I think BW is better with those ages. It is an easier walk to both DHS and Epcot from BW vs BC. The walk from BC to DHS is close to 25 minutes

    Special holiday dining?

    50s Prime Time will have a Turkey dinner with all the fixings. It always felt kind of traditional being like you were at your grandmas for dinner.

    Traditional Christmas Eve Dinner

    So from my experience only select restaurants will do a traditional Christmas meal (which would be turkey with all the fixings). However, that list won’t be made know until a month or two in advance. Now that reservations are only 60 days out it’s not as bad but before when it was 180 days it...

    Poly, BWI, or Riviera

    I would vote BWV. Great location and the best transportation. We stayed at Poly last year and weren’t that impressed. The Riviera is nice but the skyliner would not be my favorite mode of transportation

    Toddler First Trip Must Dos

    Both of my girls went we they were around 18 months first. We found they could only do 4-5 attractions before falling asleep. They enjoyed MK and enjoyed the walking trails at AK. They both fell asleep during the safari. My youngest loved the little Nemo show at AK.

    TIPS FOR 3 YEAR OLDS

    What I have noticed is both my girls could handle maybe 5 attraction before falling asleep. My oldest was 4.5 during our last trip and she could last longer than her 2 yo sister. However, we have found that our girls will only fall asleep in the stroller. If we go back to the room for a break...

    Critique my dining - any place you think we should add or change?

    We ate at coral reef when we went after thanksgiving and my daughters enjoyed seeing the fish. However, they could stay in the aquarium all day
