    DaveInTN got a reaction from Avatab.... Steve in Disney is starting to crack down on those who beat the FP system   
    I know everyone has opinions on this, but my personal opinion is that every person who actually enters the park that day should be able to book 3 FP's ahead of time on the ticket they are using to enter the park.  If someone doesn't enter the park, I don't understand why someone else should be able to use FP's that were booked on their ticket.  That just seems counter to the intentions of the system, IMO, and leads to longer standby wait times for the majority of folks who don't play those games.  But again, I'm far from an expert on the MDE system....the complexity of which leads to problems like this, so if I am misunderstanding something feel free to say so.

    What the heck??  Of course they make this change after I've spent considerable money hiring a disabled elderly dwarf tour guide who has promised me unlimited fastpasses so my little princesses don't have to stand in line with the common folks.  Sheesh.

    What??  First Ellen, now this?  I'm beginning to think Disney has something against naps.

    So the first ride to the MK is included, but after that how in the world are you going to get that thing back to your hotel?  Make the bus driver put out the wheelchair ramp??  Holy Hannah, that's obnoxious.

    I could leave my house in TN, drive to the Nashville airport, park, go through security, wait to board my flight, board, take off, fly to MCO, land, deplane, get my luggage, wait for Magical Express, ride to my resort hotel, check in, walk down to the bus stop, wait for the AK bus, take the AK bus from my resort to the park, get through the gate, and make my way to Pandora.....in less than 400 minutes.  WTF.

    DaveInTN got a reaction from Tony in Kaltxi!- A Not So Typical Memorial Day Weekend at the Fort with the TCD Gang   
    I have hesitated clicking on this thread because, based on the title, I thought it was a thread about anti-diarrhea medicine, or maybe a prescription for psoriasis.  "Ask your Doctor is Kaltxi is right for you".  I hate made up languages.  Stupid.  Why can't the blue people just speak English?  It's not like they are real.

    If you are still enjoying your trips, and making good memories with your kids, by all means take those trips.  Keep in mind that everyone on here is in different stages of their Disney relationship.  Some have been going for many years and are jaded.  Others have been going a long time and will continue, as they simply love Disney.  Many more are in the early stages of their Disney crush and the magic is still being made.  If your only doubts about continuing on your journey are due to the opinions of others, please pay them no attention.  You may come upon Disney burn out on your own, in your own time.  But if you're not there yet, go and enjoy yourself.  Even I, a recovering Disney addict and sometime hater, still find many things at WDW that I enjoy, despite my complaining.  Don't let me or anyone else get you down.

    Poor guy was hoping to see some Stormtroopers in March of the First Order, but instead all he saw was the Moons of Endor.

    DaveInTN got a reaction from dblr....Rennie in More New Restaurants Coming to Disney Springs   
    Wow, they must expect a lot of diners and bar goers to fill all those seats in DS.  I'll be curious to see how the tapas place is.  
    Speaking of tapas places, a funny thing happened to me many years ago.  As tapas restaurants were first beginning to sprout up in America, I was traveling for work in Tampa and a group of us went to a tapas spot that was highly recommended.  It was a fun and loud place, and I had a few drinks and was enjoying the food and music.  Later in the evening, my cell rang and it was INC calling to say hi.  As my speech may have been slightly slurred, and the place was quite loud, when she asked where I was and I answered in a loud voice due to the music "A TAPAS BAR!", she thought I answered "A TOPLESS BAR!".  
    That was a very uncomfortable conversation.
