    I don't understand why they would change the name on such a popular item.  Charge more......sure. Give less food.......of course.  But why change the name.

    The term "giddyup and go" is offensive appropriation of Cowboy cultural terminology.  Disney is simply doing the right thing by listening to the cowboy population and respecting their social norms.  #yeehawbobisnext

    Richie is doing well. He's on dialysis now, which puts a damper on their schedule, but both he and Lorna are wondering why they didn't start it awhile ago. He's lost weight, the problems in his legs have diminished, and he is all around healthier. They've have to really schedule their lives and find places wherever they travel, but so far so good.

    Despite the constraining aspects of dialysis, it sounds like his quality of life has actually improved.  That's good.

    I'm with Dave on this as well, but my bride keeps nagging at me to try to get in there at some point....  I know this will sound weird, but to me I think its all of the tall pine trees.  In all the other loops, like 7, 8 & 900, there is a mix of trees where the "foliage" is closer to the ground and it seems more "cozy" (I will turn in my man card shortly after I hit submit).  To me being in that loop is something like having your livingroom in a gym or very large room with high ceilings.  I know, sounds crazy, right? 

    Maybe that's it....I just know that when I loop through there something doesn't feel "right".  I assumed it was built on an old Seminole burial ground or something.   But it could just be the trees.   😂

  4. WDWNT recently reviewed the Bacon Mac n Cheese Spring Rolls in Adventureland in the Magic Kingdom.  I have to say, this review was refreshing in its honesty after reading the typically positive reviews on most sites of anything Disney is selling.  However, I'm not sure the author will be invited to the next blogger special event or party after writing stuff like this:

    These are extraordinarily greasy, even by theme park food standard. They’re not bad, but I can’t imagine a scenario where you don’t feel bad about yourself after consuming them (and need a trip to the nearest Adventureland restroom to wash the slimy feeling off of your hands and face). 

    Here is the complete review....https://wdwnt.com/2018/11/macandcheeserollmk/#comments

    800 is very popular with the weekend warriors. Because of the lack of comfort stations,  600 and 700 seem to have less small children. 

    I would also consider 1100- its remoteness probably makes it less attractive to the wild crowd

    There's something about 1100 I don't like, but I can't put my finger on it.  Does that mean I'm wild?

    On top of everything, my TA and I decided to make reservations for next December. She can not find anything available the first 2 weeks of December 2019

    I see full hookup available those weeks, including the weekend of the 12/6-8.  But not preferred or premium.  And if trying to check in the weekend of 11/30, that might be problematic as Thanksgiving is so late next year, so that weekend if part of Thanksgiving week.
