Kind of unrelated but does anybody in the Orlando area have any insight for the leasing agency for Disney Springs? Without going into detail about my job but a few companies I (loosely) work with have recently leased retail space there and I'm looking to do the same for mine. I really don't think it's a "we'll approach you" scenario.

I hate to say it, but handicapped loading really boosts your score.

Regarding pain, maybe there's some way to rig the trigger being pulled so you don't have to hold it, like maybe string or something? You could undo it as you're getting your score.

Velcro straps and loops are pretty cheap on Amazon.

It’s the size of my hands and the squeeze, I was blessed with lovely baby hands. I’ll try that next time though.

What is the thing you’re supposed to hit for the big score? Under Zurg?

Universal added Guy Diamond from the Trolls movie to the park this week, and no joke, he farts glitter. Saw it for myself this weekend. They come out by E.T., but I'm wondering how long the glitter thing will last.

Just got back from a weeklong trip to WDW with my wife. It was her first time and she had a blast. She couldn't imagine going without someone who knows what they ware doing, she was so overwhelmed by it all. Thankfully, my fat rear end was able to fit onto Flight of Passage and the ride lived up to the hype. We ate at Via Napoli and Ohana, both of which were great. Next time we go, will definitely need to try some other places.

Anyone going to MK this week willing to pick up some of the reusable bags for me? We got the rest of the parks, but MK didn't have them the whole time we were there and would really like the complete set. Will gladly PayPal some cash if someone is willing.

Just got back from WDW. Probably will be a few years before we get to go back unfortunately. As always, the trip was amazing but tiring. We walked 50 miles in 5 days, including the day we arrived. Saturday alone accounted for 17 miles!

Watching the dude hold the Disney World cue card for ten minutes during the crush around Brady post SB was amusing.

I hope they had to wait in standby at 1pm for SDD. Looked pretty sunny out.

Ell oh ell if you think they did anything other than the super-mega-ultra-VIP tour that comes with a butler and permanent front-of-the-line access. Not like cost is an object to either of them.

On the bright side, they usually have a limit now to the hours. Didn't used to be the case.

Get that mad money to be the first MVP to say "I'm going to Universal Studios!" and proceed to be trespassed on Disney properties along with your descendants and your extended family. Along with being barred from their streaming services, movies and TV channels.

Disney had them on a schedule. They saw a bit of Galaxy's Edge construction and then took promo photos with sabers, rode Slinky, then booked it to MK for their parade appearance, and then they probably went straight to the airport to fly back to New England.

Lobster mac. Pretty good but it was the last thing we got in the night and it was clearly not fresh ingredients. Best thing of the day was the salmon and the deconstructed reuben. Neapolitan Stout in America was excellent as well.

I want to head to EPCOT during flower and garden but hubby says it'll be super busy. Regular visitors, is that the case? Like, it seems weird to me that folks would prefer to see topiaries and things over rides at other parks.

It's more that epcot is a big food and drink hub during fests. Just expect it to be a little more crowded on weekends, but flower garden is not nearly as bad as food and wine. You'll be fine.

No more than any other parks in the spring. It’s a nice change of pace to stroll around the world and have snacks and chill instead of waiting in ride lines constantly. Do it.
