Yep. I can count the number of rope drops I've seen on one hand, and often we don't get to the parks until noon. But we also pick our park of the day based on what's open the latest. I think I've only ever ridden Peter Pan after midnight (I refuse to wait an hour and don't generally waste a FP on it.) lol I'd love for those late hours to return - after midnight almost everything was a walk on and the parks were so cool at night when they weren't crowded - but short of paid events like this, I doubt that will happen.

Another Skyliner Accident
BradyBzLyn...Mo replied to djsamuel's topic in WDW and Disney Park Discussions
Well this isn't encouraging, "...Cast Members at the station seem pretty unaffected by the event, as if it happens often." What the Fort? -
(Context: I've lived my entire life in New England, the last 30 years in southern NH) Temp ranges can swing about a bit as already noted, and in my experience, when it's "cold" in FL, it's a damp cold, which affects me a lot more than our icy, dry cold up this way. That said, I've tent camped at the Fort in January and gone from needing the electric heater and an extra fleece blanket inside my sleeping bag on the first night, to sleeping with just a sheet and the fan blowing 3 nights later. So... anything goes! Layers are your friend, and if you're not from cold places (like here in

Disneyland "membership" program
BradyBzLyn...Mo replied to lightbikes's topic in WDW and Disney Park Discussions
Makes sense. The more we go, the longer we're there, the less we spend on stuff. These days aside from meals, we mostly buy popcorn and dole whips in the parks. lol And if I want a new t-shirt or sweatshirt (because I've finally blown a hole through one of the eleventy I already have), we head to the Character Warehouse outlets. -
Disneyland "membership" program
BradyBzLyn...Mo replied to lightbikes's topic in WDW and Disney Park Discussions
Not a surprise at all. DL has much bigger percentage of local regular guests than WDW, and I know if I could just "pop by" the parks any ol' time, I probably would spend a fraction of what we do when we're there for 2-3 weeks once a year. The time we spent 6 weeks there (with APs) our biggest daily expense was our campsite. We did eat out in the parks/DS, but not nearly as much as we normally would, and we bought hardly any "stuff." FWIW (which might not be much) I have seen some of the typically-somewhat-correct-at-guessing bloggers saying that they expect that now that WDW has increas -

Predictions
BradyBzLyn...Mo replied to FEARtheEERS's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Not surprising. That's a LOT of people to sort out and get in place all at once, and I'm guessing that's a bigger priority that what it will take to retrain a bunch of them in new positions. -
Predictions
BradyBzLyn...Mo replied to FEARtheEERS's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Fair point. And they may be calling people back in a particular order as jobs open up (seniority, availability, etc.) - i.e., not necessarily who had the job last but who is at the front of the line to call. -
Predictions
BradyBzLyn...Mo replied to FEARtheEERS's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Yeah that is also the thing I'm seeing in some of the people being called back - they're being called back for jobs other than what they were doing before. One person claimed that Disney called them 4 times. -

I'm seeing a number of CMs on FB reporting in just the last week or 2 that they're getting called back. -
Main St Confectionary Cinnamon Buns??
BradyBzLyn...Mo replied to lightbikes's topic in WDW and Disney Park Discussions
Yep (and ew). Although as baked goods in a can go, the Aldi brand ones are pretty good (better than Pillsbury at least). -
Don't Forget to Cross the Chains
BradyBzLyn...Mo replied to PGHFiend's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
LOL!! How's that joke go "first you say it..." -
Yep! And those little buggers are the itchiest. It helps me a wee bit, but not much. I eventually found out out that if I pop an antihistamine it works better.

Don't Forget to Cross the Chains
BradyBzLyn...Mo replied to PGHFiend's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Oops, sorry - didn't mean to blame you for the Key Bridge LOL. I Crazy enough, we actually did tow our very first big camper over/through the Chesapeake Bay Bridge/tunnel. What's even more bananas is that we had no idea what we were doing at the time and didn't even have the tow setup completely corredt - I don't think we even had sway bars!! (Talk about not knowing what you don't know.) We survived, but it may definitely have led to DH's bridge-phobia. I'd have to bring a suitcase full of Xanax. -

DH is not a fan of the Key Bridge in DE. If he's awake when I'm driving I go the inland loop instead. It was a doozy, one I hope to never repeat, and we were incredibly lucky. Thanks to seatbelts and the dogs being crated, we avoided the fate of all of our stuff which was strewn across about 50 yards of highway. -

Oh and I am not showing this to DH. He already hates towing over high bridges and always asks me to move to the middle lane. -
Don't Forget to Cross the Chains
BradyBzLyn...Mo replied to PGHFiend's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Wow is for sure. That. Is. Bananas. I can only imagine what it took to get the people and dogs out safely. I've been in a a wreck where we flipped on the highway towing a 33' camper with a Lincoln Navigator (so about 50' end to end). Every window in the truck was busted except for the rear left. We basically rolled to one side and I think would have kept rolling if the camper hadn't yanked us back the other way and then dragged us to the side of the road with it (it had damage on one side only). Both humans and 3 dogs walked away with no real injuries, but I know how terrifying -
