- First time using FP+. Love it.
- We usually go in the summertime. This was our first trip in mid April (after the Spring break rush). We will not do a summer visit again. Too hot, too crowded.
- 7DMT at rope drop is not worth the vicious mayhem. It's better to ride it with FP. Going directly to Frontierland and walking onto Splash, BTMRR (2x each) is a much better option IMO.
- We did not get an FP for the Wishes viewing area. But we were able to get what seemed to be just as good a viewing area by showing up around 9:40p.
- My suggestion for FPs to reserve in advance at MK are: 7DMT, PPF, Space. (Then again we have boys so we don't need to do the Princess thing)
- We stay off property because it's so cost effective and you get so much more more bang for your buck (a beautiful 2BR / 2BA condo for $100/nt). However, we would like to try a Disney Resort for our next trip. Would love to be able to use Disney transpo to/from our resort.
- Trail's End = fantastic buffet!
- 50s Prime Time = Best meatloaf ever
- Chef Mickey's = never gets old
- 'Ohana = just awesome. Great wings and dumplings!
- Raglan Road = Food is good. Fun atmosphere. Step dancing was really cool to watch.
- Via Napoli = way too expensive
- Pecos Bill's= too expensive, too crowded and the grilled cheese was terrible
- At Animal Kingdom, take advantage of FP+ by reserving Everest, Safari and Kali. This allows for a slow paced day to enjoy the sights and animals that AK has to offer.
- Loved the new design your vehicle thing at Test Track
- The Grand Fiesta Boat Tour is such cool ride!
- Love the Tomorrowland People Mover
- MK late night (after Wishes) is a great time to enjoy the park. Don't even bother trying to exit MK right after Wishes. Get a snack, hop on some rides and wait until the mass exodus is over.
- "The Land" is one of the most relaxing rides at Disney
- Tom Sawyer Island should not be overlooked
- Already starting planning for our trip next year!
