    Memory maker - yes or no?

    i often get it, it’s the only time we are all in so many pictures together!!! And with a 14 month hold, if she doesn’t like the characters just hold her and most likely she’ll be content because she’ll be in your arms or dad’s arms. :). My kids loved the characters from an early age but my...

    Who's been on a cold day?

    OP- 56 sounds like a beautiful park day especially if it’s sunny and 56!! I just looked at the 10 day forecast, it looks wonderful for your trip! We’ve been when it’s dropped to the 30’s and our hats and gloves are on!

    Would you do Boma and Sanaa on same day?

    No, I’d be too filled from Boma breakfast to do any TS lunch!!😂😂 Plus to us it would be a major pain to go out of park to eat and then back in. Breaks up the day too much!

    5 is a fantastic age to go to WDW!! The will have memories from the trip especially with pictures being taken!! I have memories from my first trip to WDW with my grandparents and I'm well into my 40's. What precious memories and photos they will be with their Great-grandparents, Grandma, and...

    Skip FOP?

    Yes, get that FP!! If you are getting one for EE and Safari just get the FOP one first!! Totally worth it!! I've never seen the whole movie, just a bit of it while my kids were watching it at home. Didn't matter - loved the ride!!

    Getting a studio room at Christmas, is it difficult?

    If you are making the reservation right at the 11 month mark I do not think you will have trouble getting the two studios in standard view. We've done two Christmas trips - the last one being 3 years ago at BWV in a standard view. The one before that we actually booked BWV at 11 months and...

    FEA and wet pants....

    And in the front seat, it seems to be worse!! When my kids and I boarded FEA in the front seat it was already wet so we knew what we were in for! The three of us squished as close together on the little drop but my son and I still got wet but my daughter lucked out and remained dry! I...

    BLT Lake view (2) Bedroom or OKW -- May, 2018

    I think you made a great decision on BLT!! The 3rd bathroom will be huge helping everyone get ready! Plus being able to walk to and from MK and monorail to Epcot is so very nice!! We did BLT lake view once and loved it - Bay Lake is so pretty to look at and the water pageant passes by...

    Na'vi River vs. FOP fast pass

    FOP definetly!!! Now we did a day and a half for AK to see everything so we FP's Navi one day and FOP the next. I would not wait for Navi in a long stand by line, however FOP is worth it!!

    Rivers of Light FP+ needed? Shoulder Banshee still selling out?

    We were there Thanksgiving week and didn't want to wait in a long line or use a FP for ROL so we watched it as we ate dinner at Flame Tree BBQ. Just went down to the pavilion closest to the water and had great seats and got to eat! LOL! Now we couldn't see all the projections because we were...

    FP tomorrow should I skip Pandora?

    If you are going to AK, how about FPing the Navi' RIver ride? A Pandora ride you can all enjoy and everyone can see the Pandora landscape which is pretty cool.

    1 or 2 days for AK?

    We spent a day and a half at AK just last week. Our first day in was actually a late afternoon/evening and we had FP to Navi' River. I was so glad we ended up seeing AK and especially Pandora at night. Pandora has really cool colors that come alive when it gets dark outside. We also saw...

    Quick feedback on the DVC Lounge in Epcot. Simply awesome

    We just tried it out for the first time over our T-day week trip. Really great!! First time we had seats and refreshed with drinks and snacks. Second time it was packed and although we got drinks there were no available seats and no snack cart going around. :(

    Dvc free park parking? Family members ?

    We just returned yesterday from BWV and had a paper resort pass for our car. Had no idea some resorts, we're doing away with that.

    Considering a 4 resort split stay, anyone done this?

    We have done 3, and 4 night resort hop stays, but never just 2. With a 2yo, I would be really hesistant to do that many 2 night stays and be homeless just when a nap in bed was needed.

    Weather question - 12/1 - 12/8

    We just got back yesterday and are from DE - our temps were in the mid-range 70's also. Let me tell you to us, it felt WARM!!! Since you too have gotten used to more chilly temps the 70's will feel warm and if the sun is shining, you will feel very warm!! I was surprised, I wore shorts most...
