Re: Tell about staying off site

Following. I am staying at a timeshare near SeaWorld this summer and at Orange Lake (near Animal Kingdom) next spring. I am not looking forward to driving a rental around the area, but my family already has the timeshare points.

I have been craving a Gideon’s cookie since I have been back home.

Re: Pop Century!

Pop is my second home. It's not spread out like a lot of resorts. It's more of a 'moderate' value resort. The theming alone is fantastic. You can walk over to Arts of Animation which is another fun resort. It has three pools, but no pool slides. I hope to be down there in late 2021 or 2022. I'm jus...

Re: Best Burger?

The Gibson burger at the Boathose was delicious, but it gave me awful heartburn later that night.

Re: Never Again

Foodwise it was the chocolate-covered banana, something about it was just gross. I'll stick to my $$ mickey premium bars Also, I didn't have the best time on big thunder mountain not sure if it's because I sat in the back but it was surprisingly intense, a bit too jerky for me. I probably may skip ...

Re: Be our Guest yay or nay

The food is pretty good, but I don’t like the counter service set-up. It would be better if they changed it to a casual table service, with the counter-service breakfast and lunch menus

Re: Disney Art Books!

I inherited my grandparents’ Art of Disney book from the 70s. I also have the Art of Snow White from its 50th anniversary. I recently got the poster art book and a book of WDW maps.

Re: Fort Wilderness Horseback Riding

I went back in the 80s. It wasn’t very exciting. The horses walked slow and the scenery was kind of boring.

Re: WDW Park Tours - Which is your favorite and why?

I have only been on one - Savor the Savannah. It was nice. It is like a more personalized, small group Kilimanjaro Safari. We also spent time at the same Boma that Wild Africa Trek goes to. I was able to just hang out and watch the giraffes, and I chatted with a CM about them. Also, the food and dri...

Not embarrassing, but Hall of Presidents. Isn’t that what it is there for?

I asked planDisney last week. They are estimating that the PeopleMover will reopen in early March. However, Disney keeps pushing back the date.

Re: The Soul of Jazz

From the looks of it, the Soul of Jazz exhibit is pretty disappointing. Disney just created the equivalent of a series of school project displays.

Re: Disney's River Country

I went back in the 80s. I loved it, especially the river tubing slide. The safety regulations were much more lax back then. The tubes would get very congested at points. I went down the first hill, and my dad followed me. He crashed into me and knocked me right off my tube. The lifeguard dove down t...

We requested a section in our resort reservation, go to your My Disney Experience app and see if you can ...
