We had went out for a late lunch. Fend for yourself dinner. I made a chicken taco salad- which isn't very good.

7:27pm on 11/8/25 by WendyMarie

Al pastor tacos.

7:32pm on 11/8/25 by gmcc

We're in StL celebrating some good fortune with our sons. Heading to Charlie Gitto's on the Hill tonight!

7:49pm on 11/8/25 by MOJoe

After spending the day with friends at The Cloisters, we walked into a largely Dominican neighborhood. I thought we'd eat Dominican food. But the group chose Spanish tapas. I had shrimp with garlic so it all worked out.

Trails End quick service on the beach at Fort Wilderness and waiting on the fireworks. :)

@MOJoe you have to tell us more!

10:17pm on 11/8/25 by sarahr

Too cool, @MOJoe!

10:18pm on 11/8/25 by TumbleMonkeys

Evidently Tommy Lasorda and Charlie Gitto were good friends. In the very back of the restaurant there is a private room that is named after him and normally reserved for VIP's. Unbelievable that they put us in there!!!

Does anyone else feel the need to insure their trip with travel insurance ?

Yes, indeed! I'm not wealthy enough to risk that amount of money with erratic flights and other causes of last-minute cancellations. I don't travel with small children any more, but you can bet that they WILL get sick on day 3-4 after a flight and MK.

9:11am on 11/8/25 by Ali Ababwa

I only got trip insurance leaving the US and on cruise ships. I got it once for my momma when she rented DVC points for a 12 person trip but otherwise I don't for Disney.

9:25am on 11/8/25 by popupcamper

Also, I can't count the number of WDW guests I see who neglect insurance on the assumption that Disney will "make it right" if something goes wrong on their vacation. That would be a very foolish assumption, IMO.

9:26am on 11/8/25 by Ali Ababwa

My kids have never once gotten sick on vacation.

9:26am on 11/8/25 by popupcamper

100%. Paid off last year when everyone got sick with GI virus the night before we were scheduled to leave. Switched flights, got extra night in hotel ($$$), telemed urgent care visits and meds, all covered.

9:35am on 11/8/25 by 56arlene

We haven't often gotten ill with contagious illness at WDW, but DD broke her leg at a WDW resort, and I've been splattered with vomit from kids in queues. It's the unexpected that you insure against.

9:42am on 11/8/25 by Ali Ababwa

Absolutely. Because you just never know. Rather have and not need than need and not have.

10:07am on 11/8/25 by UndeadMonkey

I used to only insure international trips. But for the past few years I've gotten a yearly policy that will cover any trips in the year. Thru Allianz. Got caught up in the crowd strike worldwide shutdown in Rome. Claims process w Allianz was not great.

10:44am on 11/8/25 by evamarie320

But most people rave about them. I tried to do it all online but if I had to do it again I'd speak with a human.

10:45am on 11/8/25 by evamarie320

I love Allianz. Sorry you had that experience. Also have the yearly policy and add on for international trips. Never had to use domestically.

I do when I rent DVC points. Last year I had a very seamless experience with Allaniz when I got sick and had to cancel a trip. IMO worth it at a certain price point (for me, it's around $3-4k).

2:41pm on 11/8/25 by BlastThatPeterPan

I have heard that if you buy insurance after the government closure it won't cover due to flight cancels. Anyone know if this is true.

10:37pm on 11/8/25 by JodiF

Never bought insurance for 50+ trips, then I broke my leg. Husband got Covid. And then some. We have an annual policy now that we hope to never use! Makes sense insurance wouldn't cover govt shutdown. So much uncertainty.

I'm not super tech-y, so I'm just wondering... with bg1 and others down, will that affect ADR finders as well like Mousedining, etc? Not sure if it's the "same" type of tech used.

@PT- just got a Mousedining alert and snagged it. :)

9:21pm on 11/8/25 by missWishes

Here's hoping bg1 makes a comeback as well!!

9:21pm on 11/8/25 by missWishes

I set up a few dining alerts just to see if they'd still work even though I'm at home and they were still coming through. These were Stakeout app.

Anyone have any luck getting tickets for Jollywood on site/day of if it's sold out? This has worked for us previously with MNSSHP, I just dont know if the same goes for Jollywood? Contemplating an extremely last minute, 1 night trip this weekend!

How'd you do? Curious especially since this is the first party if you were able to get a ticket. Hope it worked out!!

1:20pm on 11/8/25 by njhyndman

Yeah no luck :( tho I was thinking and they told me to check back later...we ended up staying at HS all day after getting up at 3am Chicago time (went straight from airport), so were happy to leave after our Prime Time dinner escorted us out. My plan was

11:06pm on 11/8/25 by cpat

To go to hotel if we got tix to rest in between. But we didnt do that. Of course got our 5th wind when we saw all the holiday decor light up at party time and a tinge jealous! I suspect it had to do w the fact that it was the 1st party day, idk.

11:07pm on 11/8/25 by cpat

I maxed out the Sam's Club deal but was wondering if the $200 in store was $190 or if that was the online only price? I remember the $50 being the best discount usually but these would be 5% if so.

10:33pm on 11/8/25 by JodiF

Countdown to Jollywood Nights!Moderating expectations because first night and whatnot. Hope for Disney celeb sightings and Muppet vibes! Not too sure about food and drinks because just got done with the Parisian breakfast and I feel like a Weeble!!

I'm so sorry guys, we had to bail from the line for Chewbacca. We kind of felt bad for him. It's bloody hot and poor Chewbacca is in a bathrobe. Time for beverines!

7:44pm on 11/8/25 by joeyjojojuniorshabadoo

Actually, we are such complete party poopers we just left. It is really crowded and there are a lot more kids than previous parties. It's kind of just like a 10 out of 10 Park day with Christmas music.

8:19pm on 11/8/25 by joeyjojojuniorshabadoo

That's such a bummer!!!

DVC obsession. I just got my points on my first resale contract. It has an April use year. I didn't realize I had 35 points to use or bank by Nov 30th so I HAD to use them. I added 2 nights at Kidani Savanna view. onto my 5 nigh (cash) at WL.

Hey Everybody- the Sam's $200 Disney digital gift cards for $180 are back in stock! I just ordered. I was so sad they sold out yesterday before I could get them!

I cannot purchase more than 4.

6:35pm on 11/8/25 by Jennyhirsch

Maybe they paused selling to try to figure out what the heck was wrong with so many of them! Or just to let the phone lines clear! Lol! Glad you got yours @forever!

7:29pm on 11/8/25 by rickelwoman

I was just able to buy one at just after 9:00 EST.

NDR: did Flumist this year for my needle adverse children. What an awesome option! Cost me $9, shipped to my house, easy to give,kids were overjoyed to learn no pokes. If you or your loved ones qualify and might not otherwise get vaccinated, look into it!

6:40pm on 11/8/25 by BlastThatPeterPan

Good recommendation, thanks!
