Maybe upgrade is to Nemo suites since they’re closer to big pool, food and buses. We upgraded 6 days for about $100. Worth it IMO for tired parents.

Nope I don’t qualify for SoG. Well I at least get a t-mobile discount and usaa.

Wait what is this? Do you have to be retired or active duty or any veteran? I did 8 yrs w army, honorable discharge, would I qualify? Are they nice? I need to google. My favorite resort (and the only one I’ve been to) is art of animation which is a value resort which blows my mind!!! We...

Yup. We bought one pack and each put two bitbelts on our bands (the extra was for decoration) and they fit fine w the 3yos smaller band. I dunno if you’ve seen the newer magic bands but basically all the black peels off if you want turning it into a kid size. Pretty amazing design IMO.

We don’t go to Disney all the time but I worry about spoiling my kids too. For our trip we had a garage sale a few weeks before and told the kids whatever they sell of their own stuff we’ll keep that money for Disney souvenirs. Our 6yo got right on board! And ended up w like $60. And a slightly...

My 3.5 yo also loves the river journey. “Slow ride, hooray!”

Would park hopper be worth it for you? One day at MK and start another day at Epcot or animal kingdom then if she’s bored back to MK. Or Epcot AND animal kingdom. Pandora is amazing. I could just sit there all day.

We did the dinner package and got amazing seats for lion king. The theater isn’t huge but seating is all the way around w the stage in the center, stadium seating etc so I’m not sure there are any really bad seats for it. So if you can’t get the schedule to work do it separate. You can probably...

We booked a sitter w kids night out (our youngest was too young for the kids clubs). She took them for food, put them to bed. They don’t do baths or pools but the kids enjoyed it and we had many hours to ourselves since there was no hard time limit. Not super exciting for kids but they were...

If you like your stroller bring it. Think about how much stuff you want it to carry vs how you’re going to manage transportation. We rented a double from Orlando stroller rentals which was amazing. Clean, comfortable, can do a full 360 turn in place. Worth it but we don’t otherwise have a double...

Oh also note times and places of parades and fireworks. Either avoid the area completely or make a point to get a spot and settle in. We tried to get to splash mountain during the 2pm parade and got completely stuck. Same w fireworks, just wanted to get to Tomorrowland and got shunted over to...

I think a few jokes if it’s not too crazy in the bus. Although if people actually quiet down to listen that would be amazing. Just wouldn’t want it on top of screaming kids and everyone jabbering. Those buses get noisy.

Ooh what’s the time change from Australia? Use jet lag to your advantage. We came in from the west coast, slept in late and did extra magic hours at magic kingdom until midnight. We did more rides from 10pm-12am than we had done all day. And towards midnight the only line was for 7dwarves I...

So if everyone is at Star Wars would they leave the rest of the park at normal crowd levels or does a new land increase crowds everywhere in the park? Ie could we watch the crowds surge by and laugh or would you get swept away and trampled?

Agreed. Keep it nearby and haul all your stuff with it. Stroller parking is everywhere.

Ooh how fun!! Yes the pictures are adorable!

I don’t think you can use credits for tier 1. Tier 2 uses 2 table service meals for each person which worked out since we didn’t use a TS meal on our arrival day. It’s like any other restaurant there, they ask if you have a dining plan up front. They’re very aware of the package thing. I think...

Ooh at least a full day at animal kingdom. We did two days there on our trip. Pandora is awesome just to walk around in. Not a ton of rides but the ones there are are great. Everest is awesome. Festival of the lion king is amazing as is Nemo. Like really amazing. And during down time there’s...

Toy story land is pretty small. When we went Buzz was at the entrance and Woody and Jessie were in front of toy story mania. TSM was broken when we got there so the character lines were awful but the cast members said they meet all day and lines are usually not bad at all. Cast members nearby...

Ooh have fun!! We did tier 2, no safari but the show and dinner were AMAAAAAAZING. Used dining plan for dinner which was great. It was soooooo good. I can’t imagine how good tier 1 is.
