    My Universal Photo Packages

    I forgot my printed confirmation e-mail back at the hotel (ugh!) but they accepted the email with the all the information (on my phone).

    My Universal Photo Packages

    I'm not sure about that, sorry. I know that you probably want everything linked prior to entering Volcano Bay - I had an issue with linking my credit card, and I'm still not sure why, as my photo package WAS linked. You definitely want to make sure that you see your photos before exiting the...

    3-prong fanny pack recommendations

    I just looked at it online, and I think that it is fine for the size.

    3-prong fanny pack recommendations

    Also to give everyone an updated experience; my friend has a convertible shoulder bag to hip bag (brand is Baggalini) that is quite secure around the waist. They did not allow it on the ride, as it did not have the three prong latch. She thankfully had another smaller bag with the 3-prong latch.

    3-prong fanny pack recommendations

    Sorry, I just returned from our trip! The Target brand is JoyLab. They may have discontinued it. The url used to work. I tried to find it on their site, and could not. So sorry!

    Hagrid's Coaster Queue Updates / Questions / Reviews

    MUCH more active crowd management is needed during park opening because of this great ride... We just arrived home from our Wizarding World trip (Orlando) and overall had a wonderful time. We were celebrating our anniversary, and had also invited a friend who loves the HP books as much as we...

    Dancing?

    We are heading to the Wizarding World for our first ever trip to Universal for our 30th Anniversary. We would love to go dancing one night at CityWalk. I've searched here, but have not seen much information. Anyhow, any answers to the following would be very much appreciated! 1) What time...

    August 12-19. Looks like a very busy week!

    We are heading for our first trip tomorrow (Thursday) and I was also surprised to see that no more rooms are available. I'm super glad that we booked the Portofino. I wonder if it is so booked because of the "Annual Passholder's Night" on Sunday night? US closes at 8, and I'm wondering if it...

    Real ID: Married Women Beware!

    Yes - I just posted this above. Totally worth the cost of a AAA membership (if your local AAA offers this). I live in Massachusetts, in case this helps.

    Real ID: Married Women Beware!

    Also, just in case this hasn't been mentioned in this growing thread, some AAA locations will issue a Real ID, so you don't need to go into the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles, in case your state calls it something else.) You may want to check with your AAA. Saved me time and aggravation...

    Real ID: Married Women Beware!

    Even if you want to go on a short domestic flight, you will need that passport (as you don't have the Real ID.) So odd that it was easier for me to get my passport than a Real ID! I wonder if it is because for passports, I have no idea what goes on to prove my identity - for the Real ID, there...

    Real ID: Married Women Beware!

    Yes, you need to be so careful. My daughter goes by her middle name, and and the parents of someone else bought her a plane ticket, for a short flight in a foreign country, and I nicely reminded her to check the name. They needed to change it. I can just imagine her blithely trying to get on...

    GA Proof of Auto Ins for Vehicle Reg

    You've probably done this, but have you checked the car for the actual VIN number and compared it to what the insurance company is inputting/that is on your insurance papers? I'm wondering if you/USAA are looking at the paperwork when you try to input the VIN's - if the insurance company had a...

    Real ID: Married Women Beware!

    Yes, I used to travel with traveller's checks, but not anymore. It is a little silly to still even get regular checks, but there are times when they are still needed.

    Real ID: Married Women Beware!

    If you have a passport, you should be able to use it instead of Real ID anyway.

    Real ID: Married Women Beware!

    We have friends who did something similar. I had a real eye-opener once a few years back when eating lunch with some co-workers, and there was some clarification about someone others were talking about, as the mother in the family had a different name from the kids - she was, in fact, a doctor...

    Real ID: Married Women Beware!

    Yes, I was discussing some of these with my daughter recently - she just turned 21. I had forgotten/was surprised to see, that women were not allowed to apply for credit cards until 1974. So they were truly in a bind if they needed to leave an unsafe situation. Imagine being on your own with...

    Real ID: Married Women Beware!

    I kept mine, my husband kept his, and I found this for you on the Texas Department of Public Safety site: http://www.dps.texas.gov/DriverLicense/federalRealIdAct.htm I agree that it is challenging to find information - it was not clear to me until I read the following that from now on, ALL...

    Any difference between very end of June or beginning of July?

    Our first trip to WDW we arrived on the 4th of July (I got a great deal for our flights that day). We drove from the airport to our resort, and it was wonderful; there were fireworks going off all around us as we drove. Odd, because I also recall the sun setting. We stayed at the Dolphin that...
