  1. Here's a dumb question. How do you get your dog to the new and improved kennel over by Port Orleans if you have a motorhome? Since you don't really want to break camp to take them over and pick them up every day. We never used the kennel cause our dog just sleeps with the a/c and TV on but if we ever need to use it we may need to use a taxi or Uber. Just seemed odd that the separated it from the campground.
  2. I'm sure we can figure out a way to sneak in through a garbage chute.
  3. Can't wait to see what the theme of the gingerbread display in the lobby will be during the holidays.
  4. Our old cart didn't have a canopy, thus no windshield. Nothing was every said to us the 1/2 dozen or so times we had it at the fort. It is nice having one our new cart in rain or if it's chilly when you get back to the Fort at night. But as mentioned above the tint is a bit hard to see through at night. The rules list I remember reading listed working headlights and taillights as required (with horns being optional). The rules PDF isn't loading for me right now so you may want t check it under the vehicles and recreational devices listing on the campground web site.
  5. If you the smokers trail from the train station to Space Mountain. I don't think so for now. Right now the construction looks to be on the outside of the railroad tracks toward the Cotemporary.
  6. Pretty sweet. A/C unit and an awning. Do the make some sort of pop up room you could mount on the hauler deck ? That would add a fair amount of room for extra sleep or dining area.
  7. Before the Great Movie Ride shut down. Somebody turned the flower bed sprinklers on right in front of the theatre. A couple hundred strollers were soaking wet. That'll teach ya to park in an unapproved spot.
  8. There is still a lot of improvement they could do without taking any more land. Add sewer to the tent sites. Our 25ft C Class could easily fit on most tent sites. We've only ever camped at the Fort the week after Thanksgiving but in all the years we've done so the tent loops look pretty lean. Probably due to the cooler conditions in late November. The sites on the main road side in the 600 and 800 loops could be turned into "pull through" sites without a whole lot of interruption. Just open them up so you can pull into the site directly from the main road
  9. Yes to Disney it's like Monopoly money. I'm sure there's a pile of environmental impact studies and permits that would slow things down. And add to the cost. But at FW the break even would come pretty fast.
  10. Having at least one loop added with pull through sites would be great. Some of those larger coaches seem to struggle in a few of the tighter loops. Plus the tent loops could be convert to full hook ups also. But the amount of underground work required for sewer, water and power to be distributed to all the sites is cost prohibitive to Disney.
  11. My youngest (15) was with us this trip. We thought it would be fun to collect them at night and park them on the beach next to the pirate ship. Mom wasn't on board... Something about petty theft and bail money.
  12. That's all we ever took along to Disney when our boys were little. And it fit inside of a carry bag for a folding camp chair, so it was easy to check with our luggage when we flew. A new gripe I had this past trip and it's a legit safety concern. At the Yacht Club people leave their scooters and double wide strollers parked in the hallways at night so as not to take up any of their precious space in the room. I'm sure the fire Marshal wouldn't be too impressed.
  13. I couldn't have said it better myself, sir. Nothing better than waiting in line with an open bus door in front of you. And watching people in front of you try to fold a stroller and realizing after 4 attempts it's not going to fold with 2 backpacks and a full size Coleman cooler inside of it. And then clogging the NO BAGS security entrance at the parks because, and I quote "That's not a bag it's a storage compartment on the stroller".
  14. I like the company's claim that they have been certified as a stroller. It's amazing that an agency exists with the authority to certify a product as a stroller.
  15. https://www.keenz.us/7s-stroller-wagon.html Just read a discussion on a facebook group in which several people claim these Chitty-Chitty -Bang- Bang looking things are approved for use in Disney Parks. I have yet to see any, but it should add to the entertainment at the bus stops. Watching one of these units being unloaded and folded up.
  16. That was one of the questions I had when we did a DVC tour. Was told "no problem" to use points toward the Fort, but friends who are DVC members told us different after trying. It was a real pain for them to use DVC points at the Fort.
  17. Nobody I've ever dined with has had seafood allergies. But I always thought there was a good selection at Cape May for others to enjoy. But like the two mentioned by the OP, some people are what my wife calls the "needy" guests that always need that little extra attention from their server.
  18. Just got back from 4 day stay at Yacht Club. Managed a dinner at Trails End and was seated by Miss Josephine. She told us she has postponed retirement. Good news for TE guests.
  19. One of my favorites was several years ago at Cape May Cafe. Chef comes out to the table next to us and the woman tells him she has seafood allergies. WHY, WHY, WHY !!! Personally if my wife had seafood allergies I think we would just skip that eatery.
  20. Well put. We've stopped buying them during Fort stays cause it's easier to make a pot of coffee in the motorhome and faster than some mornings at TE. The soda and coffee set up down there have always seemed like an afterthought.
