Re: Refillable Resort Mugs at Parks

I'm sure a lot of it is, as others suggested, idiots who don't understand/care what "free refills from the food court at your hotel during the duration of your stay" means. But on the other hand, a lot of the hotels are seriously spread out. It can be more convenient to clip the mugs to a ...

Re: Fastpass changes???

I'm relieved to hear that, unlike what I'd heard in the past, the current version of the x-pass rumors doesn't include a surcharge. If Disney wants to charge you more to "plus" your experience at the parks, good for them if they get your money - but NOT at the expense of another paying gue...

Re: PAC, over stuffing queues & parking

Is the Fantasyland Expansion really supposed to help the crowds all that much? As far as I can tell, it's essentially only a net gain of 1 attraction - 2, if you count the doubled Dumbo as 2 attractions. While both the new attractions are going to be more popular and higher capacity than Snow White'...

Re: Condolensces RE: SG's on president's visit

The easier travel from China and Brazil was already announced last week by the State Department. I guess they just needed a big showcase to get it any attention. As much as I love WDW, I'd have to say it didn't even really qualify for "big showcase." All that disruption happened so the pr...

Condolensces RE: SG's on president's visit

Looks like Disney is doing a good job of offering up alternative entertainment opportunities and routes around Main St for the president's visit on Thurs. ...I doubt that SG's and the CM's who'll have to deal with them will agree. I can hear the petulant/entitled/pissed off refund demands echoing fo...

Re: Another SG story from my recent trip

Oh, no, not the "FastPass is unfair" thing again.... My feeling on it is that it's available to EVERY ticketed customer on a first-come, first-served basis. If Disney is making more money off of it by allowing people to spend more time in shops...while I'm spending more time on more rides...

Re: SG-ish Reactions

We're staying at the Polynesian - a HUGE splurge for this dyed-in-the-wool discount-season moderate gal. We keep having a conversation that goes something like this: Me: DISNEY! Disney Disney Disney DISNEY! Him: PolyNEsian! Me: Lapu lapu. Him (sung): Monorail... Me (sung higher): Monorail... Him (su...

Re: New! SG

It's because the maple leaf so closely resembles the hammer and sickle. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7013/6615914943_f8806ccedb_o.jpg Oh, they have FAR more in common than that!
