First off, why does there need to be so many resorts making the decision super difficult? I am traveling with my DS 8 yrs old to Disney world for the first time at the end of May. He is a thrill seeker and when we go to Disneyland we are at the parks from rope drop to close. It is easy there to...

We are staying at POFQ so I was hoping to get breakfast at DS on our last day, but there doesn't seem to be many options there. Any recommendations for a good, non-park (non character) breakfast that isn't too hard to get to from PO? We want a calm, leisurely breakfast before we have to head...

I’ve been going to Disneyworld a few times a year for 10 years. I’m a Disneyland local. I’ve stayed at just about every Disney hotel (and a few offsite) and became a DVC member a few years ago. Here are my unfiltered thoughts on Disneyworld resort hotels. Hopefully this helps people planning...

My parents (67 and 62) and myself (29) will be traveling for 3 nights in early December, and are trying to decide which resort would be the best fit for us. We only plan to go to Hollywood Studios, Epcot and Disney Springs. I was looking at AOA (Cars Suites) or Riviera (1 Bedroom) for 2 showers...

Hello! Is there typically a long line for espresso drinks when scat cat cafe first opens at 7am? Does anyone know if they have flavored syrups to make a vanilla latte, or just the plain espresso drinks listed on the menu? Thanks!

This summer we are spending 2 weeks at Disney's Port Orleans French Quarter. I want to run as many of the resort fun runs as I can. But does Disney transportation run early enough to get to the other resorts as for most of the fun runs registration opens at 7:30am? If it's too early for...

We’re planning a trip to Disney world for 2 adults and a 2 year old. For our budget we can either stay 7 nights at Port Orleans French quarter 10 nights at a preferred room at all stars Which do you think would be more practical in terms of being close to the food courts and buses and how...

Your best experience with bus service at Disney?

Hello hello! I got back this morning and am deep in a post-Disney-slump... but we just had the most amazing week! Strap in kids, it's a long ride, but I wanted to get everything down before I lost it to the jet lag fog! I'm Kate, 33, went to Orlando with my family multiple times as a kid then...

Hi all! We're going to Disney next year the last week of August with a 5 year-old and we're deciding between Port Orleans Frech Quarter or Wilderness Lodge. I have stayed at POFQ, but not WL. Has someone stayed at both and can let me know a bit about their experience and how they both compare...

I'm planning a Disney vacation for our small family of three, which includes a 5 year old who has never been to Disney. I stayed at Port Orleans Frech Quarter almost a decade ago in July and loved how quiet and small it is as well as the bus transportation. We loved the fact that FQ is so small...

After reading and enjoying a number of trip reports from marathon weekend, I have decided to jump in and write my first trip report. I am still quite a novice with posting to these boards, so this will likely be a bit rough. First, a bit of background before getting to the trip itself... Who...

I'm about to go on my first Disney trip in 20 years (Apr. 6-13) and I want to Do All The Things. It sounds like rope dropping each park at least once is a good way to help make that happen...but is it realistic to rope drop parks if you're traveling by bus from Port Orleans French Quarter (I...

Welcome! Hello all and welcome to my very first trip report. Well, I think I started a trip report once and quickly gave up on it but this time I am determined to share it all! I did a PTR here, and here’s what I settled on as the Final Itinerary. You can read that and see how closely things...

hi all! This is actually my second attempt at a pre-trip report (and it may include a brief readout from the trip I took in August this year, if people are interested), but I have a lot of thoughts bouncing around in my head, and I'd love for any advice and feedback. but first, introductions...
