    Early Arrival Advice Needed

    Our flight is due in at 9am and we are almost always on this flight for arrival. For us, arrival day is a low pressure day by design since we should get to the resort (CBR) around 1030-11. We plan to leave the bags with Bell Services and head over to Disney Springs to shop, have an adult...

    First Disney adult beverage you want when you get back?

    Ottawa Apple from the popcorn cart in Canada. I don't like sweet drinks and it is just the right amount of whisky and tart for me and super refreshing when it is hot.

    ADR strategy

    My ADR day was yesterday and despite my fears about limited availability, I had NO issues getting each place we wanted for our trip and was all done by 6:10AM. I was even able to log in later in the day and swap one out for later in the week for Beaches and Cream for dinner because my husband...

    Hurricane Dorian - SWA/Delta/AA/JB waivers available

    Southwest gave us the option to move our flights for free so we rebooked for a Sat 6 am flight at zero cost and added a night at Coronado Springs ( we are dvc so it will be fun to be in a hotel for a night ). Takes some of the stress away and gain a night vs possibility of losing a night...

    Hurricane Dorian - SWA/Delta/AA/JB waivers available

    We are flying in Sunday due to get into MCO at 11:45AM on a direct flight. My guess is worst case we might be delayed depending on winds/rain and the timing or we might be right on time. Last year we flew around the outer bands of Florence on our way down and we were early coming in - so you...

    Now we aren't doing the dining plan and I don't know how to plan, help!

    Hubby and I are savers for vacation (disclosure we also own DVC and have AP - most years - ). We have done both the DP and gone out of pocket. For us the DP was a lot of food, and neither of us are big dessert people so we almost feel like it was wasted food. When we eat OOP plan we have a...

    Multiple reservations at Oga's?

    I was able to snag 12:15 for 09/08 about 2 hours ago. The app was overloaded but the website worked fine. Looks like it will be a liquid lunch that day :)

    BLT Iphone/Ipad Charging

    In just about every hotel room, I use the USB ports that they have in the flat screen TVs to charge things. Heck I even use the one on the cable box at home when I can't find my charging block lol. Bay Lake didn't have USB ports in the outlets and it feels like most stuff at least in the...

    Chefs de France experiences?

    My husband and I have gone there the past few times and had very enjoyable experiences. We have both prix fixe and ordering salad, flatbread, entrees, splitting dessert type meals. We usually will get a bottle of wine and split it and try to enjoy the a/c as much as possible especially in the...

    Asthma and the summer humidity

    That's actually really good to know. My machine isn't huge, but would be annoying to travel with esp since I try to pack light. Might be a good thing to use some FSA money on at the end of the year!! Thanks for the heads up.

    Asthma and the summer humidity

    I live in MA too and I find that while the air can be soupy and thick I do ok breathing ( maintained on steroid inhaler). My breathing is actually better in Fl than here in the summer ( with the exception of being on the beach) most likely pollen related. I will carry my rescue with me but (...

    Starbucks epiphany

    As others have mentions there are a lot of other options than their coffee if it isn't your thing. I am a fan of their breakfast sandwiches, most of their sandwiches, and the protein boxes are also good! I am a fan of the iced green tea myself - super refreshing. I don't remember any of the...

    Separation after DVC membership

    Yeah, neither of us we very happy because we were both willing to sign whatever was needed back in 2011. I think it was because the mortgage was still being paid off. But thankfully it is all just about settled now!

    Separation after DVC membership

    Sorry to hear about your break up. My situation was a bit similar. My ex and I bought into DVC in 2009. It was my thing not his but we put it in both our names having been together for 5 years at that points. I made the down payment and when we broke up 2 years later had made the majority...

    How Long Does It Take You to Get Ready

    My husband and I are very different people. He is very type B - takes his time, have a coffee and I am more type A - moves with a purpose, out of shower by certain time, ready to go by designated time. We have come to the arrangement where we have a set time where we decide when we are going...

    Question from the UK about DW etiquette...

    My parents do this all the time or they share an app and an entrée because they find the portion sizes too big for them. You should be fine. Disney turns tables over so fast the server probably won't even blink an eye because get 2 tables in what should have been the time of one. As others...

    What is your Disney shameful secret?

    I wouldn't describe it as glib (as least not my dislike), because I get that it is a product of its time for the telling of the story. I don't think it ever was even a thought, surely not in the original source material, ( the original Little Mermaid - yikes :) ) or to the screenwriters, that...

    What is your Disney shameful secret?

    I despise 85% of the Disney Princesses, don't need a man to rescue you, do it yourself lol. I didn't like them as a little girl, don't like them as a middle aged woman lol. Husband finds it amusing how much I dislike them. Probably a good thing we don't have kids lol Thankfully they have...
