    Typhoon Lagoon Newbie questions

    We’ve never been to typhoon lagoon (went to blizzard beach once many years ago). Can anyone give some info on logistics (I think it’ll just be me and ds13 that day)? What’s the best way to get there from YC? Uber? How long should we plan to be there for (we’re not really gonna lay around and...

    *** Official May 2024 Thread ***

    We’re at 29 days today 😁. I normally try to wait a little longer before putting the drop spot basket in the corner but the reality is we won’t need swimsuits or most summer clothes in MI in the next month so I think this weekend we’ll begin the gathering process. 🎉

    *** Official May 2024 Thread ***

    I was up wayyyy too early this morning but randomly checked and they had finally opened up bookings for Celebration at the Top for May! And I was able to snag reservations for our first day!!! So that completes our wish list, now all that’s left to do is pack….debating if it’s too soon 😆

    AYCTE Opinion Question- What do YOU think?

    Aside from it being against the policy and not in the spirit of what an aycte restaurant is supposed to be….it also seems like a recipe for food poisoning 🤢 (unless we’re talking rolls or cookies or something shelf stable). Not really something I’d want to risk on a Disney vacation.

    Have they finally raised genie prices enough to offset demand?

    It’s almost 10:20am and there’s still availability for slinky 😱. Weather looks good for today (there anyhow, it’s snowing here), spring break should be in full force. Could it be the pricing? Genie is $39 today for MK

    It might be the thing I’m most excited about! One day just ds13 and I while dh is at his work thing. We’re doing something for each letter of the alphabet,…not sure we’ll be successful, kinda just hoping it doesn’t kill me 🤣

    *** Official May 2024 Thread ***

    I’m leaning towards one of them, but will probably just do one park because we’re gonna have a jam packed day on Wednesday (we have 26 items on our to-do list Wednesday 😳😁). I may do DHS alone in the morning (to let the teen sleep in yet not be too far away), but then I feel like I’m not giving...

    I’m not sure, this is our first time going w convention tickets. Do you mean this? Thats just Plus option (looks like you get 1 mini golf or water park visit if you buy a 2 day ticket, even without adding the Plus option.

    Yes, park hopper plus tickets.

    *** Official May 2024 Thread ***

    Because we’re going on convention tickets, I have to make park reservations. Need some help deciding what to do on Tuesday. Here’s what we’ve got (throw out ideas if you got ‘em): Sun: mini golf, springs, pop into MK before dinner @ Cali Grill during fireworks Mon: DHS in morning, afternoon...

    Booked dining earlier this week. We didn’t have anything too popular on our list so no real need to get up at 6am yet I did and of course giddy that I got everything on our list 😆 5/12 Brunch @ Boathouse (a first for us) & California Grill @ 8:25 (hopefully I’m right about fireworks being @ 9...

    So what type of park bag is everyone using these days?

    I prefer a small backpack with lots of pockets. Exterior side pockets for water bottle and phone (why do women’s shorts have such tiny pockets?!?), pocket on the backside for valuables, plenty of room inside for rain jacket, etc. Not cute like loungefly but much better organized. This is what I...

    Has anyone heard about May dates for the Celebration at the Top party? The dates only seem to go through 4/21 and they’re not consistent….theyre not every weekend or the same days. I’m hoping for Sunday the 12th (mother’s day) 🤞🤞

    *** Official May 2024 Thread ***

    We’ll likely stay a little late in Epcot on Monday the 13th, dh’s conference starts the next morning so I doubt we’ll stick around till 11. Wednesday the 15th is the day ds & I are doing the 4parks challenge, our plan is to end in MK so we’ll probably stay till we drop….hard to say if that’ll...

    *** Official May 2024 Thread ***

    I don’t think I’ve ever joined one of these monthly threads before but my family gets sick of hearing about all my Disney plans so I’ve started to do most of the planning on the dl and pretend like we’re just winging it 😆. Anyhow, ds13 & I are tagging along on dh’s work trip the week of May...

    A-Z 4 park challenge - possible?

    We’ve been tweaking our plans and I already told ds that we might have to make adjustments on the fly as well. I know the odds of actually completing the challenge without changes is minuscule, even with changes there’s a good chance we won’t complete it. But honestly, my goal was just to get ds...

    Here Now & Just Back WDW Reopening Experiences Including Park Hopping

    As a reader/member of this board for almost 2 decades I get what you’re saying I also can’t help but wonder if that holds true for the typical guest. I feel like most people aren’t in Disney FB groups/forums and truly don’t know what they don’t know. They reserve their hotel, buy their tickets...

    Rumored Changes to G+

    Yes! It’s not even just the waking up in the morning, it’s the stress of Genie+, ILL *and* VQ all right at 7am….on VACATION!! I can’t even imagine being a west coaster having to get up at what feels like 3am 😳 I’d be happy if they just allowed one to be booked a week early and then the second...

    Rumored Changes to G+

    At this point do we really think anything is going to change? We’re going mid-May and while we’ve been several times in recent years we’ve only used genie one day on one visit so far. So do I try to learn all the things in the next 90 days (no issues I’m a planner at heart) or just wait for...

    A-Z 4 park challenge - possible?

    So a 50/50 shot….sounds about right 🤣 I think I need to make a few modifications..,, Change Cosmic Rewind to either Cinderellas castle or Club Cool Maybe change Frozen to Figment more due to location Torn on Rise….Ive never been on it and its on my must do for this trip, just not sure its a...
