I went with this and read it while standing in lines, and found it very enjoyable

When you need a break, it's nice to just take the railroad around the whole park.

the WDW seven dwarves mine train caught fire today, i believe in fulfillment of the curse placed upon the site for tearing down the snow white dark ride:

I am at WDW right now, AMA. It is currently 45 degrees. About to hit Magic Kingdom.

Good luck!
I'll be there in 28 days.

sounds like the fire was caused by stray fireworks

Still chilly but kids are game. Wore ponchos on splash mountain. Excited to gorge at crystal palace lunch in a bit.

Like the new fantasyland stuff! Great design. Also, found $100!

Any thoughts on best place to stay in Anaheim? Last time we were at the grand Californian. I liked the convenience of being able to walk to the parks, but our room was small and underwhelming given the price. It was a pretty big comedown after spending the previous night in an enormous and beautiful suite at the Venetian in Vegas that was half the price.
― Free Me's Electric Trumpet (Moodles), Sunday, 2 November 2014 18:30 (nine years ago) link
With Disney you're paying for convenience. You'll find cheaper and sometimes better accommodations outside WDW and Disneyland but you aren't getting hidden Mickeys.

There's a Holiday Inn on the same block as Disneyland. I stayed there for work years back. I believe they run shuttles over.

Staying in the park gets you access to the free dining promo, if you planned ahead, like us.

We are literally stuck in the Carousel of Progress.

ride started and stopped three times until they just let us all off. Haunted Mansion stopped three times while we were on, too.

We went to Disneyland Paris on Christmas Day one year, and it was packed! and super cold too. And there was a train strike. in other words a typical December day in Paris. (We had season passes so it wasn't a drag at all)

And now we are, again literally, stuck on Space Mountain!

that should cover about 2% of your visit!

Honestly, we had them put it in an envelope to leave at guest services. If it is not claimed at the end of the day, I think we get to keep it.otherwise, I have a feeling Disney will be making another hundred dollars profit from us.

My nieces will wear princess dresses during my December visit. Leave the $100 for me, Josh.

I should try that next time.

The rides kept turfing out when we were at WDW this spring, too. I think everything at Animal Kingdom was on the fritz. And my girlfriend was freaked out enough about her first ride ever on Space Mountain without having to ponder what was causing the queue to stall for twenty minutes.

Hollywood Studios today, where I will be reminded that Disney owns everything but the Smurfs.
Fast pass was essential yesterday, as was the system that allows one parent to wait with a reticence kid, then ride immediately when the other parent returns.also, starting early is key.

Why does stupid Aerosmith get a ride?
Saw a kid freak the hell out at tower of terror, so badly he wouldn't take the exit elevator out!
