Abu Dave posted:QUESTION for you locals etc: If you're from the US (stupid not being available for Canadians!) check the Shop Disney App. See if they'll sell the limited edition pins. If yes, you'd likely be able to order straight from the app and ship it to your hotel/house. If they won't sell them through the app you should still be able to look up which stores have them in stock. Like was said your best bet is Disney Springs, then the pin shop in Frontierland (can't remember the name), then the big pin shop at the front of Epcot.

Yeah i'm not getting my hopes up much. Granted if there's a Splash Mountain one I will pay anything for it but Pirates is more eh.

Did the Tower of Terror get a lot shorter? Last year I left with a grin. This year it was more of a yawn. Regretting not taking my four year old on it. Wouldn't have scared him excessively.

Sometimes it's shorter, sometimes longer. People speculate it has to do with line length but I dunno, seems completely random to me. Not a big difference either way though, more short drops and raises vs a few medium drops before the big one.

Yes, please! Don't count on it, this year is much warmer than usual, 50's-60's are more typical temperatures this time of year.

How long of a trip does someone need to fully experience Disneyland? After our next WDW trip in March, I think I want to see Disneyland and specifically Cars land before the kids get too old. We would be flying in, and I would want to stay on property. Do they have the equivalent of DME and all that from the airports? Can you see it all in 3 full days? 4? Which hotel is best for a standard 2 adult 2 kid party? I'm not opposed to spending 100 dollars a night more for Disneyland Hotel over Paradise Pier. The Grand Californian isn't my style really but I do tend to like nicer hotel accommodations. I'd hit you up Braks, but this won't be until early 2018 probably

Depends on the season but 3 days is more than enough to do both parks fully. There is a Disney shuttle from/to the airport, but you have to pay extra. Disneyland Hotel is classic and has Trader Sams. You can go visit the Grand Californian and enjoy the lobby etc without staying there. I always stop in when I am there.

You can just about see all the E tickets on an off peak day but I'd suggest 3 or 4 days to properly see everything and at a sane peace. The official hotels get early access every day. Some of the unofficial hotels are closer than Disneyland Hotel and Paradise Pier.

Pecos is a great place and you should never rip it off because they'll take away the toppings bar  is the Best Western near Disneyland decent? The on site(?) official hotels are so much money.

Abu Dave posted:is the Best Western near Disneyland decent? The on site(?) official hotels are so much money. I stayed there this past July. It was a decent motel. You get a free breakfast and if you arrive before your check in time they allow you to park in their parking lot and walk to the park. We had no issues with it, but we only stayed their two nights. Just be sure to not leave anything valuable in your car.

Wish that was available at Disney Land There are a decent number of off-site places that are easily walkable. Ive stayed at many. Taken shuttles to the hotels. No problem. It's not the same Disney bubble as in Orlando. For better and worse

Pretty sure this place will do just fine on just the five grand we're pumping into it this week. If that last forty bucks is the final straw then maybe they have no business operating a massive media/entertainment empire. Seriously, I've never been to Pecos and will be checking it out when we go back to MK tomorrow.

Nothing like drinking hot cocoa at the Christmas party on a 70+ degree night. Keep in mind that Florida weather is basically God hurling dice at the wall as hard as he can and seeing what happens when the dice shatter. Orlando already remains in the 80s and 90s for almost the entire year (only dipping from November to March and only having a few days of near-freezing weather, with weather changes of 30+ degrees from one day to the next), but storms come and go as they please. It's not uncommon to have massive torrential showers that last for less than 5 minutes, or to stay raining for 24 hours in one area. The rain is also extremely localized. You can drive through multiple showers on the interstate that are each half a mile long, or witness rain in your backyard while the front is still dry. One day I left work in the evening and it was raining everywhere in the parking lot except for a single parking space.

I might have gotten one over on the Mouse. I'm addicted to those character high heel Christmas ornaments so I got another one on Friday. When I got it home, the heel was totally busted off the shoe. I called and they're sending me a "one time courtesy replacement". The guy on the phone was pretty pissy about it though.

I've never gone to Via Napoli because it felt like "well, you can get pizza anywhere" but prosciutto and cantaloupe pizza? I may need to reevaluate this like NOW. We are planning to go to Chefs de France- any recommendations?
