    Universal Day from WDW?

    We visit Universal every single trip when we go to WDW. We travel a long distance to get to WDW so we want to make the most of our holiday. Harry Potter is SO well done and not to be missed. I would get a park to park ticket and make sure you get there right at opening as there is lots to see...

    Loving the new videos!

    I can’t be at MNSSHP this year but I loved watching this great video with Craig, Ryno and Erica. Such fun at the party! I have always enjoying the podcast when it’s Ryno and Craig doing it together. 👻

    As a Canadian, what do you do to save money on Park dining?

    A fellow Canadian here with 3 kids (now adults and they don’t travel with me anymore). When we went, I packed a bag of just food And we all took snacks in our bags to have at the parks - mainly granola bars, protein bars, etc to fill people up. We also had breakfast in our room every day but...

    Is this a crazy idea?

    There are so many changes in the parks since I last visited in Dec 2017. I think I need a full year to figure out the ropes! Why am I waiting more than a year? Well, I like to go in Oct or Nov and this year just seems very busy. In Feb I am planning a trip to Hawaii with two sisters so I thought...

    Is this a crazy idea?

    My health has been on my mind lso as I have rheumatoid arthritis, which is the worst in my feet. I figure I’d I don’t go next year, I may have missed my opportunity. I have never used a scooter but if I need to, say, on my Epcot day, I will. My biggest concern is my health - what if something...

    Is this a crazy idea?

    I never thought of getting an annual pass for Universal but I will look 8n to it, for sure. The express pass would sure be nice. I would likely only spend 1 or 2 days at Universal as I think I need 6 at WDW. Any longer and I think I may get too lonely. Shorter does not make sense since it takes...

    Is this a crazy idea?

    I am seriously considering my first solo trip to WDW next fall. My family either won’t seriously commit, wants to wait a few more years or else just doesn’t like to travel (DH). But I will be 68 by then and don’t want to wait any longer. I have been to WDW 8 times before so I am not a complete...

    Best souvenir you ever got

    My fav - a small Vera Bradley change purse. It slips into my zippered pocket when I walk the dogs DD - a beautiful stuffed Rajah tiger. Her son has it now DS2 - popcorn bucket from La Nuba, Cirque du Soleil. He keeps all his change and gift cards in it, 24 yrs later DS1 - nothing. He doesn’t do...

    Cancelling Christmas/NYE Trips?

    We are in BC. My husband will be 70 in 3 weeks. He will be at his 6 month since his second vaccine On Dec 19. But he has to wait until he gets his ”official invite” before he can even book an appt. I got mine earlier as I am immunocompromised but I am worried for him. Every province in BC has...

    First Solo Trip - Is More Than 10 Days Too Much?

    I would go to a water park, preferably Typhoon Lagoon. Or, I would head over to Universal for a day. you could also sleep in one day, then take the bus to MK and do the monorail loop, provided it is up and running, and visit Contemporary, Poly and GF. Have a drink and lunch at one of them. Or...

    Made it to California! A bit of testing and traveling info for my fellow Canadians!

    Thanks so much for the hotel info, Sue M. It is always so nice to hear from other BCers! We might go in the fall 2022. I do love WDW and after my first visit there, we were hooked. My favourite parks are AK and Epcot somI will miss those but there are lots of thing at DL that WDW does not have...

    Made it to California! A bit of testing and traveling info for my fellow Canadians!

    We are heading to DL for our next trip. It is much closer and in our time zone, too! i hope you don’t mind me asking what hotel you stayed at? Would you recommend it? How far away from the parks was it? I have not been to DL in over 30 years!

    POFQ or POR

    I love POR with all its lush landscaping and large pool. I have also swam in their quiet pools and we have often been the only ones there. i really like their store and their food court. But, it is large. We have always been lucky to get a room fairly close to the main buildings and a bus stop...

    Mobile ordering with food allergies

    Thanks for this! i have only used the mobile ordering a couple of times on our last trip in 2017, before my diagnosis. I had no idea that there was an allergy section on the app. Can you hit the “I’m here button“ before you get there, like ten mins before so your wait is not as long? Or would...

    Mobile ordering with food allergies

    Are most counter services places just mobile ordering now? I am celiac so is there a way to indicate this? I would prefer seeing an allergy menu. TIA

    BC stage opening!

    I live in the interior of BC and we had heat temps up to 46C one day and temps above 42 for 5-6 days in a row. SO hot. We do have AC and most ppl in my city do. On July 1, Canada Day, we had a storm around dinner time with lots and lots of lightning strikes. We could see fires start up all...
