    Springtime Surprise Weekend 2024 (April 18-21)

    Interesting, mine didn't have the Lance peanut butter crackers but had the Sunflower Kernels instead. :confused3

    Merging a duplicate thread with responses in each, post order may read a little odd. :-)

    Ahh, got it, thanks for the clarification!

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    Love my AfterShokz (I guess now just Shokz, I’m behind and missed that somewhere) Aeropex, which if I’m not mistaken was the predecessor to the current OpenRun model. They have been sweat on, rained on, tossed from bag to bag, and generally abused but still flat out work like a champ. Great...

    Wilderness Lodge or a Monorail Resort

    You noted your trip was awhile ago, but just wanted to mention for the sake of anyone reading that Disney removed the bunk beds from the WL as part of the most recent room renovations. FYI.

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    Yeah, I like his work but I always cringe a bit when he posts looking down Main Street shots - people are like OMG it’s so crowded but the angle/lens used really skews the perception sometimes.

    Marathon Weekend 2025

    Late SAFD: I’ve been using a running coach since summer 2022 when I started training for my first marathon / Dopey, if I’m honest I sort of mindlessly do whatever he says to do. I really like the accountability factor and the interface of how workouts are loaded (he uses Training Peaks which...

    Growing family and need help between OKW and Yacht Club.

    Granted easy for me to spend your money, but I vote two rooms at Yacht Club. 😇 (I know that wasn’t one of your options, just seems like with that party makeup you’d appreciate the space and walkable proximity to the parks/resort amenities).

    Disney's Club Level (CL) Information & Questions

    Admittedly an unfair overgeneralization on my part, but I’ve never found the GF CMs to be all that friendly either. Granted I think some if it is my flawed approach to GF - you get in your head “you’ve paid all this money for the flagship hotel/CL and it’ll be perfect in every way” and in...

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    Yeah, I don’t disagree. Turned out smaller than what I had expected from the renderings/plans. Still withholding full judgement for the final product. The outdoor bar does have me intrigued though! 😇

    Can anyone remember?

    A lot of the places mentioned above predate me, but just wanted to say I enjoyed reading many of the detailed descriptions of long lost places. Cool thread.

    Springtime Surprise Weekend 2024 (April 18-21)

    Somewhat related...I prefer those little plastic snap things and since I'm guaranteed to forget the ones in my nightstand no matter how many times I mentally tell myself I need to pack them, there are usually numerous vendors at the Expo that have many varieties.

    Wilderness Lodge or a Monorail Resort

    We did a 12-person multi-generational trip a few years ago that included 2 sets of grandparents. I was the one in charge. Glad we did it but also glad it was a one-time thing! 8-) (I kid, I kid... kind of) 2 of the grandparents rented scooters from an off-site service to have on hand...

    Disney's Club Level (CL) Information & Questions

    I know you weren’t asking me but like a good DISer I’ll give my unsolicited opinion. 😇 For me, WL fits in an every 6-10 stay rotation or so, and ideally one that’s not long after a monorail or Epcot resort stay. If I haven’t been in awhile and I’m wanting all the park things, then monorail...

    No Club Level Discounts

    I was in college in 2000, so no, I don’t know. But I’m enjoying my CL stays now. I liked them better when they were included in whatever discount was running at the time as has been the case for a long time. But the mouse seems like they want to go in a different direction. I can make the...

    Typhoon Lagoon crowds

    With it being Memorial Day weekend to me it’s sort of a toss up - highly likely to both be heavy days assuming the weather is good. But if I have to pick a weekend day I agree with PP I normally lean Sunday. I’d recommend getting there early (ideally before park opening) and get what you can in...

    Refrigerator/coolers in rooms

    There’s a reason this is on most of the recently renovated room beverage coolers. On quick Internet search the US Dairy Association recommends 40 and below for things like milk and yogurt. That’s personally fine with me and I don’t tend to think twice about it even with yogurt, but it’s not...
