It’s funny how quick it went from “give it time” to “stop listening”.
How is that odd? Someone is criticizing me for explaining why Pete made a decision and I thought the saying was don’t shoot the messenger. Plus, most people then change their thoughts and minds when they know it comes from Pete because they respect him so much. The fact is, and please take me at my word on this, if you’re unhappy with the Disneyland Show, the best way to voice your opinion is by not watching or listening. Numbers sometimes speak louder than words.
"Our show"
The entitlement is pretty heavy here, huh?
Oddly enough as a nearly 40 year fan of WDW having made well over 60 trips to WDW the old Disneyland podcast was a huge influence in us making our first trip to DL. Not only that but once there we knew where we wanted to eat, all about the Max Pass and even some ideas on seeing other parts of the city.That. Pete has always been forthcoming he owns a travel company as a matter of full disclosure. I highly respected that and honestly I don’t think it’s ever affected his decision making negativity before, in this case I think it has.
DL vets just don’t use travel agents because we aren’t usually staying on property. The prices for GNH through Disney are way off. My recent trip I stayed off-property in a suite with a fireworks view for $550 for all four nights including breakfast and parking. It was just a promo from Hilton. I am not sure if there is an opportunity for Dreams to put together deals with GNHs directly. We don’t have to book FPs and for dining we call a CM a week or two before and can get basically anything we want.
I am disappointed but I don’t blame him. He is a business man and targeting the WDW fan base who would need extra help on a first DL trip makes more sense. I know this and have to just it be.

No. I do everything on a phone and that much typing on this small keyboard is a no no in my book. I can say we loved the trip. It was like going to the WDW of my childhood in many ways. Thanks to the old team we loaded up on breakfast burritos from the Taqueria which may have been the best deal we found.Did you do a trip report? I find first time visitors reports fascinating!
IT was "our show." It was a Disneyland Show. not a show of WDW people talking about Disneyland. It was DL people talking to other DL people about DL... Just like the WDW show is WDW people talking about WDW to other WDW people.
