That's what I figured. Yeah, I don't want to run out early, but I wondered if it functioned like a regular ticket.
I know tons of people who have been there this month, there right now, or en route - so I'm getting pretty hyped to be back.

So, can you leave the holiday party and come back in?
They sent me hard tickets for Xmas Party and I thought it just went on our bands automatically but I seem to have a huge collection of things to bring. Plus my dad sent me 100$ in Disney cards since it will be my bday trip, with instructions to buy flaming drinks at all the places. 15 days!

Last year they sent me a hard ticket too and all we did was trade them in for a wristband

Please enjoy this picture I got when I caught him on the way to the Frontierland Hoedown.



I asked if he had time for us to a picture with him. his handler was all "uhh he sorta has somewhere to be" but Brer Rabbit had my SO walk over with him arm in arm so I could take a picture of them on the move.

Brer Rabbit earned my love that day is what I'm saying.

Ugh im so jealous. I want to meet him so much. I heard all three of the Brers have been chilling outside the entrance to Animal Kingdom but he's so hard to track down, and the Frontierland Hoedown is hit or miss I guess for him. :shrug:


The one time I almost got to meet him my girlfriend overslept and all we saw was him walking backstage :mad:

Epcot was nuts today. Word is they were directing folks towards MK instead - usually it's the other way around!

Epcot parking was completely closed out. Everyone was going into MK. Getting on the Monorail was a bit of a wait. Line extended all the way to the ticket area.

Interesting trip so far, the guy next to me on the flight died mid-flight (and revived about a minute later) and we got diverted to Dallas. (Like it couldn't have been the obnoxious baby several rows back instead?) Guy didn't want to disembark, paramedic was a waffling goober, and the Stew was like "You are NOT continuing this flight." The doctor who happened to be two rows ahead of him (who responded to the Code Red and treated the guy) finally convinced him to leave by telling him that he may feel fine on the ground, but he'd most likely die again when the pressure dropped at cruising altitude. Drama...

Forgot all my insulin and testing kit in my fridge at home, so no rice/pasta this trip... :doh:

Sadly, the tap water in the room is nasty-rear end Florida skunk water... had to buy bottled to brush our teeth. :-p

This is such a weirdly inconsistent issue at WDW. Some fountains/taps taste fine, some are the swamp water. I need to make a map of the good spots in the parks.

I've never had an issue with the water. Looks like polluted WV water is comparable.

We started bringing one of those Brita bottles with the charcoal filters built in and it was a life changer. Can drink even the swampiest of swamp water and it doesn't taste like poo poo.

Yeah I had a Camelback one with that and it was my dedicated park bottle until it flew out of the pouch on Dinosaur, only for me to find out they no longer make that model. I'll have to pick up a Brita one.

I don't know why I never thought to bring a filtered water bottle. I always just gritted my teeth and drank the sludge water.

Just ordered a Brita one :D

Joe Rohde and James Cameron are going to be in Disney Nov 19th & 20th to show D23 members a look at Pandora so my guess is maybe they'll reveal a date then

Same here; I haven't seen anything to indicate a target opening date other than a nonspecific "2017".

Wishful thinking ahead: I hope it's open in March. But it won't be.

Got this at the Disney outlet for half off today. It lights up and plays music. I am a child, but my husband enabled me and bought it for me as an early Christmas present. At Christmas, this will go in front of my tree and my son's monorail set will circle the whole shebang.

It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.
I assume Avatar will have previews and soft opens late spring/early summer. Interestingly they have been doing Test and Adjust on the rides (or at least the e-ticket) for months, which is pretty weird, but kind of exciting since it means they may actually have the kinks worked out by the time they get lots of guests on board.

Yeah, we will be back end of March for my birthday. If I could sneak into Pandora at that time, that would make my day but I have no expectation that will actually happen.
That said, with them announcing rivers of light officially for may, they might be trying to line that up with the opening of Pandora as well. But who the hell knows at this point.

Also, I noticed they brought back my honey sriracha chicken waffle sandwich in MK. Getting that this Saturday after we land.

I thought that was you. And if I seemed frustrated it's because we had a guest fall a bit before that and I got poo poo on by everyone in that inner queue for supposedly not doing my job.
