True, I'm probably tainted by the later character reveal so it wouldn't have been the song I would have chosen for a reading.

Okay, we don't visit frequently (you'll see from my sig block) but we do travel and have at least one big trip a year. We are fortunate to both have good jobs but there is a lot of help too behind the scenes. Here's how we do it: 1. DH is in sales so usually (in non-pandemic times) that means...

Sunday: chicken marsala with gnocchi and roasted brussel sprouts Monday: teriyaki salmon with broccoli and carrots in parchment paper, rice Tuesday: spaghetti with meatballs, caesar salad Wednesday: chicken of some sort (haven't decided yet), liked with scalloped potatoes and peas Thursday...

I'm sorry that this seems to have ruined Disney for you. To be honest, so many corporations have actions or inactions or key employees who say or do something that I might find bothersome or offensive, I'd be living as a hermit in a cave if I ruled them all out so maybe reconsider a bit if you...

Well, here I come back from a Dis hiatus for a while and what's the first trip report I notice when I return? Yours! Such a happy moment, I have always really enjoyed your TRs. I'm so sorry the pandemic affected your wedding but hope it's only that much more wonderful later. And your...

Not a lot of advice but my uncle and aunt retired there and love it. Hope you've had a chance to explore and see if it is a good fit for you. Weather is pretty good and the snow will be better than what you are used to in Maine.

I have paroxysmal afib and am on meds for it. But never had a problem with any rides triggering it but I also didn't try RnR or Tower of Terror. I did the IncrediCoaster (fka California Screamin') at DLR but mainly didn't like getting jostled so much. That's the same reason I avoid Space Mtn...

Oh how fun. So below the prices kind of range and you can pick what is comfortable for you: * Clothes-- Super easy and fun. Think Disney t-shirts, PJs, swimwear, socks, heck even underwear! Tons of options. * Accessories -- hats, sunglasses, footwear (flip flops, slippers, crocs, etc.)...

Yeah, I'd bring at least 1 per day. There are some really cute ones out there for kids.

Amen. Everything from I give too many gifts to my kids and have up too many decorations at Christmas to judgment on skipping the family Christmas this year to be sure I am healthy to attend my dad's funeral in January. It will never end. The only thing you can control is your reaction to it...

Chrome book for school, fun mouse and fun mouse pad (DD has one that is a corgi where the tush is the wrist pad), gamer headset (not too bad really), decorations for her room (DD really wanted a lava lamp at that age and the recent thing for her and her brother were LED light strips that went...

Yep! The kids are getting chrome books as their cheapie older laptops are failing under the pressures of remote school. Books and pjs and maybe some extra clothes but that’s it beyond stocking stuff. I give a stocking to each of my mom and ILs so I have some things for them - Kleenex, ham...

We did USO first because figured that is a more "go, go, go" kind of resort. And it was. WDW can be that but can also be slow and meandering -- more choices. I was happy we had it that way. We spent 2.5 days at USO and then transferred to WDW for a week. For WDW we did do a split stay...

Last time we went we had about a week there and still left much to do. They want to spend more time at USO next time (BLASPHEMY! :rotfl:) so next trip will probably be a wee bit shorter. But I'm like you, if I'm traveling from across the country, I want to get in some serious time. I'm eying at...

DD was 6.5 and DS was 4.5. We don't live near any parks so it's a journey to either. Part of this was financial -- I like Disney, DH is meh -- so I figured we might not have many visits in our future. For WDW, DS was 7 and DD 9 as I wanted to get in before DD was a Disney adult. Honestly it...

We normally divide and conquer for the exact reasons you discuss. We drive up to drop off and do curbside check-in (normally they let us keep the car there as one is starting the check-in process and one is unloading. First thing, we g0t kids into the strollers and situated so they can watch...

Depends on the kids. DD was always pretty game. DS is much more nervous. We had a gap of visits between 4.5 and 7. 4.5, no way. 7, he was game to try just about everything. He even tried Yeti but polite passed on repeats. But then FF to 9 when he went to DLR, he rode California Screamin'...

No. With the masks and some experiences being either limited or canned altogether, that's not the family experience I want. So I'll wait until it really opens up.

Youngest was 4.5 and oldest was 6.5. We hit DLR first (we had family a couple of hours away so a two birds, one stone kind of thing) and that certainly makes it a bit easier being smaller parks. It was driven more by my oldest's age than the youngest. I wanted her to be young enough to still...

ugh, I'm so sorry. Glad they took it so well! Sometimes a little surprise can soften the blow, like a Disney stuffie and/or other Disney treats. Maybe even you can ask them to help you plan some family movie nights with themed food and watch a Disney movie together as a way to bring a little...
