Hey everyone- my family and I recently returned from a DL/National Parks road trip through the southwest. Some folks on the DL side expressed interest in a trip report, so I've posted one in LA Cava. You need to be signed in to view it, I believe...

Ooh thanks- like I said we're only going thru Joshua tree on our trip but I'd love to read this. That's my morning commute reading set as I'm on train today :-)

Can anyone confirm if the Anna and Elsa topiaries are still there in Norway? I know they are typically there for F&G .. we will be there next week and my Oldest wants to ask the youngest to be her Maid of Honor in front of them.. fingers crossed

Rats!! Ok.. thank you for the info .. she will have to think of something else. This is the latest in the Summer we have been so I wasn't sure how long they stayed. Thanks again.

Why not go in and do it with the REAL Anna and Elsa?
7:56pm on 7/3/26 by
That's a good idea, we just have several recreation photos in front of the topiaries throughout the years so she thought it could be special do it there. But the real sisters might be perfect. Thanks for the idea.

I'm hoping to do celebration at the top for my Sept trip and the anticipation is killing me. Why do they have to wait until the day of booking to release if there will even be an event.

Ive done it and unless the bar really matters to you, the food, ambience and deck view is much nicer from the main dining room. Cheaper too.
9:38pm on 7/1/26 by
Maybe we will just do the bar then and come back for fireworks.

@totsy and I have a (rare) agree to disagree on this one. Celeb. at the Top's food is exceptional and far more varied than what you can get at dinner; and while the view isn't quite as good, it's close, and it's far less crowded. I think it's awesome.

So what's the best strategy for watching the fireworks on July 3rd if your staying on property, but not going into a park. I know the beach at fort wilderness is a good spot, but it's a lot of work to get there.

It's an eye sore. We can call it the monstrosity or the Best Western. It really ruins the FW vibe.

@Flutegarden, I agree. Used to be Disney took into consideration line of sight, now they don't care what you see. Loses a lot of the magic.

Answering to my question.....anywhere! Fireworks were going off above the castle and the ticket and transportation center.

I was able to switch the members in each room on DCL so that both rooms get the FL rate. What are the drawbacks now of one person from each room being assigned to a different room?
12:25pm on 7/3/26 by
Immediately we had to kind of negotiate who got to go. Getting on and off the ship you will need to be by stateroom. Same with check in. At least that was our experience
11:19pm on 7/3/26 by
Oh and room charges will get mixed up too so you will have to settle among yourselves. The way to avoid it is to not charge stuff to the room
11:20pm on 7/3/26 by
But if you have onboard credit i believe you do need to charge it to the rooms

Had the most magical fireworks experience by accident tonight. Got to Magic Carpets right before 9. No line so they let us stay on for four rides, all the way through the show! Just spun around watching the fireworks coming from every direction. Amazing!

Poly is checking resort or dining reservations at the walkway from TTC. People in front of us tried to talk guard into "since when-you didn't do that last year?" and we walked up and showed him our dining ADR and got through
8:30pm on 7/3/26 by
@utang, right, just for this weekend
9:18pm on 7/3/26 by
@irene, just in case it wasn't clear, I was answering the first person who replied to you rather than your meal. Hope you enjoyed your Poly meal!
9:47pm on 7/3/26 by
Ok, thank you!

Booking 3 kids for haircuts at Harmony and want to follow with a Capture Your Moment session. What do you think would be best timing for booking each location?
11:01pm on 7/3/26 by
"What's cookin'?" DW and I are helping our sonn&!DIL build a new play set for our grands. Dinner will be burgers, hot dogs, a cool summer salad and a watermelon salsa with tortilla chips. What are your dinner ideas?
4:36pm on 7/3/26 by
Leftover taco meat for salads and leftover chicken rice burritos.
6:10pm on 7/3/26 by
Dinner finished cooking and then the power went out. Thankfully, the sudden rainstorm also knocked the temp down for now, so we're sitting outside.
6:18pm on 7/3/26 by
We had pizzfari/ flametree :) I might have been hot and hangry ;)
10:16pm on 7/3/26 by
Where to watch fireworks at Epcot tonight near front of park? Thanks!!
5:18pm on 7/3/26 by
We've been in that area @UT. Agree the monorail adds that little bit of extra magic!
6:53pm on 7/3/26 by
I wat he'd outside of communicore hall against the fence by the water and it was amazing! So much less crowded there. Thank you! We had no sound sensitivity melt downs which truly made my night. Thank you again!
9:27pm on 7/3/26 by
Hooray! We really do enjoy that spot.
