Agreed, but don’t give up:Can I just vent how much I hate the park reservation system? Back in October/November today seemed like a good AK day. After the reality of 3 races and needing to nurse things a bit, I'd really rather keep it closer and smaller and do DHS for a quick lunch and back to the resort. The system won't let me modify my reservation to do that. I can't even hop into DHS after 2p unless I've entered AK already, either. Very frustrating.
Oh that stinks! What happened? Just lots of traffic?On the bus ride from hell back to VGF. An hour and counting
I have returned RunDisney merch to Resort gift shops in past years with no push back. If it is official Disney merch, you should be able to return it to any Disney shop.Has anyone been able to successfully return merch to somewhere that’s not the expo? I will ask at Pop on my way out this morning, but don’t know how much to push it if they say no. Related, I’m trying to convince myself to save money and return a few things that are too big- will be parting with a men’s small jacket and XS white spirit hoodie if anyone wants to coordinate getting them.
I have too, but I’d read in a group (maybe not this one) that people were having difficulty with it this year. I just asked at the counter and initially the answer was no, but after discussing what the receipt/barcodes looked like (I didn’t have it on me) she thought she probably could take them back.I have returned RunDisney merch to Resort gift shops in past years with no push back.

Honestly thought the exact same with the tea cups. I hate spinning rides to begin with, and the slog to get back to Epcot was already going to be hard enough to begin with.I applaud whoever hopped on teacups today. I hesitated to think if I should and thought…I don’t like spinning on a normal day why am I even considering it on a day it is very important I do not get sick
They seemed to be emphasizing tomorrows weather quite a bit. I see the humidity will be high. Is that the concern? The temperature will rise quickly but that starting from low 50’s. So it’s not hot getting very hot. More like chilly to warm. Maybe I’m wrong.
And now they're gone. No clue what time they got there.Just in case anyone is in the Boardwalk area, they have 50th anniversary Pluto, Donald and Goofy out on the village green for pics!
Just to clarify, no photopass, but handlers can take your photos.
Disney seems to be working overtime these days to tick off its paying customers. I just booked Park passes for the wife and myself at Epcot next month and found out about the dynamic pricing they have initiated. Just more middle finger from the mouse…Can I just vent how much I hate the park reservation system? Back in October/November today seemed like a good AK day.

Hate to hear about the sunglasses, and not sure where is the best place to get any. Maybe a cheap pair at one of the gas stations near D Springs. But I always go to the ZZ Top route of Cheap Sunglasses. If I’m anywhere that they are handing out free promotional sunglasses, I grab a pair or two and use those for races, so that if I lose them, no issue.Quick question for the pros. I lost my goodr sunglasses somewhere prerace or the very beginning of the race. I’ll definitely need a replacement for tomorrow. Should I go back to the expo, or try Disney Springs? I have a car if that makes any difference.
Thank you so much @PrincessV! The concierge at CBR was able to switch my park reservation up with no problem! On the Skyliner to DHS for an early lunch now!Agreed, but don’t give up:
1. Try again later - I’ve found things to open up frequently this way.
2. If you’re at a WDW resort, hit up the Concierge - they’ve been able to help me with this once or twice.
Yeah, I was frozen from start to finish and it got worse with every mile until sunrise. I decided to walk this but basically try to do it under 3 hours... Well, that required running a bit of it and I did that for first 3 miles and hence I got wet from sweat. That made the last miles worse cause I was wet and walking slow... I tried running intermittently to warm up, but it didn't help too much and so I was just cold the entire race.Also, I felt like I was freezing almost the entire race! I’m originally from Michigan so I’m used to cold weather, but Florida cold hits differently…
