NDR- DS22 is in Nepal as part of his medical training- says AK is pretty good but a lot cleaner. Just had to walk past a totally broken away road & switch vehicles & about to cross a 287m suspension bridge in Annapurna. Makes WAT look like kids playground

Port Orleans-Riverside or Coronado Springs? Solo traveler. RunDisney STS Weekend. I always stay at CBR but the there continues to be no availability there for the travel agent discounted rooms. I have been afraid this would happen eventually. CBR seems to

10:51pm on 7/13/26 by h2olly

CBR seems to be much more popular with addition of SL. Been checking travel agent website for 2 months and never see availability for CBR.

10:51pm on 7/13/26 by h2olly

I can't speak to how it works with race logistics, but while we like POR we love Coronado. Great views, food.

11:59pm on 7/13/26 by JJT (staff)

Thanks JJT. My sister loves Coronado also, especially Gran Destino Tower. None of those rooms are available though. I am leaning strongly towards Coronado. POR is just sentimental to me because my mom took all of kids/grandkids to WDW in 2000 and that's w

DH is not a fan of the idea of a memory maker share. He is worried about strangers having access to pictures of our kids. Has anyone done one and have experience they could share with me? Was this a worry for you? What did you do? TIA!

8:58pm on 7/13/26 by tlrg4488

With the amount of wrong ride photos I have gotten I think that randos would have access regardless of the share. What's the concern? It would be 2-3 other families also at WDW. Seems quite a long game for random pictures.

9:44pm on 7/13/26 by melcort10

What are your dates ? My DD30 & I are 8/8-13. Correct. In 2019 I got a whole day's of someone else's they could not remove. No kids though

10:10pm on 7/13/26 by Magicalday2011

Valid concern and I don't mean to exacerbate the worry, but there are thousands of cameras in the parks taking pictures of everything and everybody. No doubt we've all shown up in stranger's photos

So in a weird twist, I got an email from Disney today wanting to interview me for a senior position in my engineering career field with them. This could be interesting. I have an interview scheduled for Friday. Wish me luck.

To beat the next heat wave coming mid-week, DW suggested we take advantage of the cooler temps and go sit outside at a favorite local brewery tonight, and bring a pizza. Why, yes, we can (and did that).

@tinker and all others: thank you for the support! His echo this morning looked great, so fingers crossed that continues! Unfortunately, he had a really awful night last night regarding nausea. He seemed to turn a corner this pm, so we're hitting...

9:55pm on 7/11/26 by JERancher

...the hay early and hoping he continues to feel more like himself! If all goes well, the chest tubes come out tomorrow, which everyone says is a huge game changer for pain management. Hoping for that... and so grateful for everyone's prayers and well ...

Hey again everyone- thanks once more for the well wishes. He'll be receiving another (smaller) chest tube this morning. Another procedure, more potential complications. It's a bummer... but hopefully a temporary setback. We'll see.

9:12am on 7/13/26 by JERancher

Sending more hugs and prayers.

9:14am on 7/13/26 by Rjcsmom

Sending lots of prayers.

9:25am on 7/13/26 by WDWchipndale

Keeping you and your family in my thoughts @JER.

10:43am on 7/13/26 by cdlla

So sorry. Lots of healing going on. DH had that too. He will get tired of you reminding him to use the incentive spirometer. We are keeping you all in our prayers.

11:08am on 7/13/26 by Tinkerminnie

Thinking of y'all, @JER. That healing process is such a bear sometimes. One of the best illustrations of the "it's a marathon, not a sprint" analogies that I know of.

11:17am on 7/13/26 by utang44

Thank your updating. Thinking of you

11:41am on 7/13/26 by VikeQueen

Prayers heading your way. There's no better place in the world than Mayo in MN. Our daughter was treated there in the 90's and she got the absolute best of care.

11:46am on 7/13/26 by Spiff

Sending prayers and positive thoughts your way.

1:19pm on 7/13/26 by Dis_stacey

Oh @JER I know how hard set backs can be. I remember after my DDs first surgery we were expecting 4-5 days in the PICU that turned in to 9. So hard - a marathon for sure but 13 years later all is well. Hang in there and know we are with you!

1:37pm on 7/13/26 by njhyndman

Continuing to pray for you all.

2:53pm on 7/13/26 by WendyMarie

I've been away for a couple weeks and just catching up, @JER. Praying for healing for your sweet boy and no more setbacks. And praying for strength for you! So hard.

Like @ali I have made my own with equal parts passion, orange, and guava.

8:20pm on 7/13/26 by evamarie320

Costco sells it once on a while

Sort of related: My DS works at Trader Joes and just sent us a text that they have pineapple coconut pops that he says taste just like Dole Whips.

If anyone wants to follow along, I'm posting in the forum as I make DH's MNSSHP costume for this year. I truly think this will be my best work yet. https://forum.touringplans.com/t/follow-along-with-dh-s-mnsshp-costume-construction/108509

What you have so far is GLORIOUS!!! I am amazed. I can't wait to see your finished product!

12:03am on 7/11/26 by tiana

Creative and impressive! I will be following along to see your progress.

6:10am on 7/11/26 by Ange425

Wow!! You are super talented! I love where this is going!

7:17am on 7/11/26 by IMarriedMyEllie

That's so amazing!

7:45am on 7/11/26 by popupcamper

Wow!

8:13am on 7/11/26 by snelvis

I'm excited to follow along because I remember the Lumiere costume!

9:05am on 7/11/26 by youcanfly

Thanks, @youcan! I didn't think anything would top Lumiere but this is already up there!

3:45pm on 7/11/26 by HalfBludPrincess

Added a reply asking for help figuring out part of my costume. Would love any suggestions y'all have! Thanks!

8:45am on 7/13/26 by HalfBludPrincess

Wow. Wow! For the smokestack... what about one of those expandable tunnels kids have that are just a wire spiral ring and plastic? You could use a couple pieces of wire to extend it up to desired height, but it would travel flat.

8:53am on 7/13/26 by DestinyCalled

Something LIKE this: https://a.co/d/01GzjzxP

8:55am on 7/13/26 by DestinyCalled

Solid option! I'll see what I can find! Thank you!

8:55am on 7/13/26 by HalfBludPrincess

Or maybe a pop hamper so it has a "top" then I can just add some fabric or something to cover the mesh.

8:57am on 7/13/26 by HalfBludPrincess

YES! same idea!

9:11am on 7/13/26 by DestinyCalled

Depending on your diameter, a vent hose might work too. Or a small pet tunnel. Fabric covered to match.

12:31pm on 7/13/26 by trishr.

Oh yes! A small cat tunnel! You could cut it to fit if you're crafty (clearly you are!)

That is outstanding!!! My crew is going as characters from HBOs the Pitt.

3:53pm on 7/13/26 by Crazycatlady3

I want to hear more about this, @Catlady!

4:55pm on 7/13/26 by TumbleMonkeys

DH is Dr Robby, dd is Dr. Mel King and dd bestie is Dr Santos. We ordered black lightweight scrub tops. Ordered name badges off Etsy and stethoscopes! I'm not brave enough to wear black! So I'm undecided! Might be nurse Dana! I don't know!

5:49pm on 7/13/26 by Crazycatlady3

If you go as Nurse Dana you MUST carry around a baby with a name tag that says "Jane Doe".

7:48pm on 7/13/26 by JenniferB1975

I volunteer my DD for Becca King

Kiddos have officially requested to join the family costume so DD3.5 and DD2.5 will be rubber ducks and DS5 will be the scuba guy toy. I'm even more excited now!!

8:56pm on 7/13/26 by HalfBludPrincess

Wow!! I'm so impressed! Great job!

9:39pm on 7/13/26 by hauntedmansionnurse

One and the same
