Anyone tried to fit a twin air mattress in POP rooms? DS (24,22,21) just realized 2 of them will have to share bed and are not thrilled.

I can confirm you can fit a twin air mattress on the floor at pop. I've allegedly only ever used one and put the chairs in the closet area.

We fit a kid on a sleeping bag at Sports.

found a great deal on twin with pump on Amazon $20 . What specific address do I put for them to deliver to POP?

"What's cookin'?" Busy day here, when I'm finished with my chores I'm going to make homemade pizza. Luckily I made dough the other day, so we're having a traditional style with pepperoni, onions and extra cheese. Cookies for dessert.

Any DVCers will know which email I just read but... has anyone stayed at the FW DVC Cabins? Do we love them? Hate them?

imho It doesn't feel like camping anymore. The bathroom is in the entire other side of the cabin. The spare bed/couch is right along the wall on the other side of the bedroom, the big glass window wall is a head scratcher ... it's meh to me.

We were there in January. I liked the layout of the old cabins a bit better, but we still really enjoyed our stay there. It really helped to have a location close to one of the bus stops.

Are you referring to the email about the upcoming price increases? Poly and Aulani are the only resorts on that list without resale restrictions, if that is important to you.

PH - EP to HS & close night with Fantasmic! Or HS to EP & get an extra 30min of RD? Having second thoughts on our OG plan after updated hours for Jan 2. Love to hear your thoughts! (6ppl trip, staying @ OKW, taking Dis transport, no car)

NDR but UOR (cross posting for additional help). Can't decide if I should try Hagrids. I'm a rollercoaster whimp. I can do BMTR and Space, not EE and GOTG pushes me to my limit. Should I try to ride it?

If you are the type that gets carsick if someone else is driving, be sure to be the driver. It gives the illusion of more control.

OMG @Jenny, I still feel awful about convincing you to try GOTG.

If you get motion sickness, you need to ride more.

Oddly enough, there have only been 5 VB listings in December since 2023 - normally I would say don't necessarily trust the median when you don't have a lot of data points, but I'm thinking $171 is pretty good any day.

I should probably point out that the same room at the same price in Sept is "only" 7% under median. Same effect on your wallet, but different price evaluation using the new monthly median my system is crunching.

Notably on that last listing: it is "only" about 19% under median when comparing to all past listings for BW 1BRs - but when just comparing to December listings it is that 32% under.

Not a "cheap" room, but a very good price for this BLT 2BR in January! When looking at only 4-nights or longer this is the lowest price recorded for that room and not likely to see another appear for this time frame based on past history...

Really, waiting until 5 nights out from check in for this price drop is ??? but, for a Savannah 1BR AND a long stay, this price is terrific. There has only been 1 other 1BR Dec listing priced lower. But, was a Value, appeared in Oct and gone next day.

I feel pretty solid with WDW planning, but thanks to the Hoosiers and the Rose Bowl, I can do a 2 day trip to DLR. What planning topics are a huge difference between the two? I was last there 40 years ago...

Many of the classic rides don't offer LL, so plan accordingly. Mr Toad, Alice in Wonderland, etc. DD16 asked for a DL trip for Christmas, so I'm back to planning too! Have a great time!

7:33am by skrimp

My kids and I are reading "Wind in the Willows" this semester and therefore I'm finally making the connection to Mr. Toad's. That being said- is the ride so popular bc that many people love the book? Or just cause it's a classic ride?

3:29pm by lizshiv

Mr. Toad's truly is a WILD RIDE. We just kept looking at each other as we went through it asking each other, What did I just see?
