    Peace out, at least for a while

    Taking a break from the boards for a while. Might just drop it altogether. Maybe I’ll see ya in the parks? Peace out, it was fun.

    Will We Ever Cruise Again?

    I just sent a note to family that we intend to cancel. For the record, it's because of the policy, not because I'm worried about any virus. The Wish will still be around in the future, and we can find other things to do.

    Rationing again?

    I can tell you from a supplier POV, there are serious supply chain issues out there right now. Our products are already a month late, and retailers haven't flinched....they are seeing it all over. There are dozens of boats waiting to get into major Chinese ports, and some are simply bypassing...

    Rationing again?

    No, not yet, but wouldn't surprise me. Government is itching to flex and lockdown.

    Will We Ever Cruise Again?

    We are booked for a DCL trip next year, but honestly, if the stance on vaccine/testing/masks doesn't change, we will cancel. It's a crap ton of money for that experience. Will go again one day, though.

    Autoplay video/audio ads...

    2 cents... they are annoying.

    Can we talk about how Difficult Disney Vacations are becoming

    I do think our days are numbered with WDW parks. Not saying "we won't go again," but we will certainly go less. In an average year, we are in Orlando 6 times, and we went 11 times in 2020. We spend far more time in other parks or just hanging out than any WDW parks. Having passes to the other...

    Disney is really pushing phone usage!

    I also hate moving away from magic bands, mostly because it makes managing things for kids so much better. I have to thumb thru passes in my app or watch.... meh. But, I can say that I use my Apple Watch to pay for pretty much everything these days. Waterpark, theme park, gas station...

    To Go or Not To Go

    Not canceling. Literally everyone I know with Covid right now is vaccinated.

    Florida Water - again

    Totally a different direction here, but I make sure I have packets of propel and similar powdered stuff to add to the water to make it drinkable.

    NBA Experience

    NBA Experience could be a section of something else. No way it deserved an entire huge building.

    NBA Experience

    Agree. Pretty sure I predicted it here it wouldn't last more than a year or so. Extremely niche product, even more niche now after 2020, and was far too expensive. They tried couponing it and then lumped it in with + tickets.

    NBA Experience

    I really want a Dave & Busters or updated Disney Quest type thing. :-)

    NBA Experience

    It’s official. Not reopening. You can Google it, don’t want to link to competing sites. It’s on Orlando Sentinel site behind a paywall.

    VLOGGERS?

    We watch a lot of them, no surprise, since we are on this board. However, it does make me chuckle to see them walking around with the camera pointing at them. We were enjoying NYE at SeaWorld, and had found a very nice spot where the kids could chillax and we could eat and drink. We ended up...

    Are park reservations even an issue any more?

    Ha! My "old job" had me in Charlotte one week per month. I'm also a huge Carowinds fan, but fun fact... have yet to take my kids there! We get passes if we know we'll go somewhere twice, it typically pays for itself, plus we don't need any more junk in this house, so the grands also will buy...

    Are park reservations even an issue any more?

    We live in metro ATL and know a ton of folks with APs. Daily tickets are so expensive, it makes sense some years, especially if you are DVC. We have passes to other parks in Orlando this year and we use the heck out of them...

    Is Flight of Passage really worth the wait?

    I will not wait over an hour for it, but I will say that we have found the estimated time on that ride can be wildly high or low. By that we have gotten in line with a 75 minute wait, and made it almost the lab before hitting the end of the line, but we've also entered with sub 1-hour times and...
