If they are shifting focus to the Meadows are they going to ruin it with more car and cart parking? I also suspect we won't be staying in the 1300 loop once it gets its Premium Meadow Campsite designation.

Whoever came up with this idea has obviously never seen what happens to a marionette's strings. Unless untangling the strings is considered the audience participation element.

To get to Trails End and Crockett's Tavern you would park at the entrance and take a bus to the Settlement. I don't know if they will have moved things due to the DVC construction but you would also go to the Settlement for the carriage ride. I don't know about how they enforce the number of occupants.

I tried to get FPs and got on the website as soon as I could signup and Flight of Passage was already fully booked. We ended up skipping it.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the line go to a Galaxy far, far away. Long lines are here to stay I'm afraid. When Rene and I went to AK for an early extended hours rope drop by the time we got to the line for Flight of Passage the wait was four hours. WE didn't expect anything like that 9 months after it opened during the month of February. Sadly there are just too many people for too few marquee rides.

I've started seeing them in the local Harris Teeter stores.

But not so wide that you take out the neighbor's mailbox as the folks next door did on their first attempt to park at home. Nice looking rig. I'm sure you will enjoy it.

I lived in a town on the Mississippi River for a couple of years as a kid and remember Mayflies. They would fill the gutters and you couldn't walk downtown without stepping on bugs. A funny thing I remember reading in that town's local paper a while back. It appears that Mayfly populations are dropping to the point there are concerns they might become endangered. The cause are all of the business and street lights attracting the bugs instead of them mating and laying eggs. Wish that worked for mosquitoes.

You did say you wanted a "smaller" trailer.

They probably hire WPG when BPG is on vacation. It's what happens when you hire specialists.

I can't speak for summer as we will never go to Florida in the summer. For other times of the year the Fort tends to clear out from the weekenders on Sunday so it is a good day to arrive. For our trips we always stay from Sunday and check out on the following Friday and have never had a problem. I think the only time the Fort is really hard to get into is on weekends and around the various holidays. I suggest you get in touch with our resident travel agent Jason from MouseCounselors. He is an active Fiend, great to work with and always willing to provide information about staying at the F

Well when you think about it clowns are scary things and are only made worse by clowns like Stephen King's "It". What I think would have been better is a sundae made out to be a unicorn farting rainbows. I can't think of any young girl that wouldn't like that.

Ours came with a TP holder but we can't find any place to mount it so use a floor standing model. For towels we just went with a couple of over the cabinet door type bars and the bath sized ones go on a collapsible drying rack. It fits the shower well and manages to stay up when we travel or goes outside for fresh air when the weather permits.

I don't see how they will let someone wear those on a ride and they appear to be too large for the storage area that some ride cars have. So what to do with them?

I kind of like the retro 60's feel of the T-shirt. Since we never visit in the summer we will give the Skyliner a try. It looks like it might be a fun way to take a midday break from Epcot or HS and visit a resort or two.

Finally settled in back home and fortunately had no other incidents on the trip. I will say I now understand y'alls relief at getting to the Fort after waiting for 3 hours to get onto the GW bridge. Thank goodness for 36 gallon gas tanks. Rene and I have decided if we ever get back up to the NE we are either going to fly or drive there via Canada. Comparing the two routes other than I-84 through New York the road surfaces weren't that bad and the traffic was lighter than taking I-95 and its parallel toll roads. While it was about 100 miles longer it saved us a few hours of driving time (n

Congrats on the new trailer. It looks nice. Our experience was similar. When I came to pickup the new trailer the salesman opened the door, stepped inside, did a 360 then walked out and said let's finish the paperwork. I don't think they want to have too much knowledge as it gives them plausible deniability to sell "As Is" and not fix any problems the unit might have. You've obviously done something wrong.

I've driven the I-95 side a couple of times between Philadelphia and Washington DC without a trailer. This is why I figured I'd try the New Jersey side. I have an EZ Pass. I picked it up due to all of the toll roads and bridges in states north of DC. I had forgotten about the tunnels thanks for bringing it up as again since I've never towed through that area it is not something I would have thought about.

It was Plainville, MA. It is a 10 minute drive from the campground in Foxborough. Since we will be driving on a Friday I expect a long driving day so we are planning to go straight through to Cherry Hill from Massachusetts but I appreciate the offer to say hello.

Well we made it to Normandy Farms, a great campground, but not without incident. A bit of a rant but not so much this gets moved to the Debate forum. I don't understand how the high tax states can have such terrible roads. I-84 through New York wasn't much better than an unimproved cow path over a rocky wash. Add in the road debris, some of which took out one of our truck tires and the rear taillight, all over the place and I think if we ever have to drive it again I'll buy a Caterpillar bulldozer. To top it off the road side assistance guy for the bridge didn't show up until I was soaked and

We traded our previous trailer as I didn't want to deal with a private sale and having two trailers in our driveway until it sold. Of course this is guess but based on previous used sales of our old trailer model and the price the dealer asked for it on their lot we might have been able to sell it for $500 over the trade in price.

That will be Disney's next big money grab. For only $199 for adults and $149 for kids you will be provided with a character car, selfie stick and cupcakes to enjoy your Skyliner Dessert Party.

Are you suggesting that the Fiends should rise up, mount their golf carts and go to war?

Congratulations on the trailer. I think a lot of the quality issues are related to paying the workers on a piece rate. It encourages the folks to get done as quickly as they can so they can leave work and go do something else. I'm not sure of when the manufacturers switched over from hourly rates but folks I've talked to in the industry say this is when they noticed a change in build quality. I also think we as RV owners are part of the problem as well. Too many times things that should be charged back to the manufacturers as warranty work we end up doing ourselves for whatever reason.

Thanks for posting the video link. Rene and I have never been there and are planning to spend a couple of days at Dollywood on our way to the Defeated Creek gathering. The roller coasters have one of the traits that makes Magic Mountain in California one of my favorite parks. That is they are built taking advantage of the mountainous terrain. For me that makes the ride more fun than something built over a piece of flat land. Yeah but what good is a slice of a cast iron pan?
