    Cortezcapt (Derek) got a reaction from BradyBzLyn...Mo in Places to get a GOOD drink at WDW   
    Epcot is the best place to drink in the parks, Mexico has a margarita booth as well as the tequila place inside the pyramid. I think some of the other countries have liquor as well, definitely beer and wine in every country. HS has beer I know and I'm sure wine have never really looked for anything else.
    My vote for best resort to drink at is the Polynesian, the lapu lapu is great (you can get any drink in the pineapple if that appeals to you but the drink does not). Can't forget there's always the famous or infamous monorail crawl, which of course if your staying at the Fort can be monorail and boat crawl. Any of the bars or restaurants at the poly have great drinks from our experience.
    Every resort has some type of bar or lounge and usually themed or regional drinks based on the resorts themeing. I'm not sure about the value resorts but I'm guessing they do.
    Like anywhere else it all depends on the bartender but the only bad drink we've had was a mistake by the bartender adding coconut to a drink that normally doesn't have it (coconut allergy).

    My favorite time at the Fort is the next time I get to be there!!
    I've been going only since 2001.
    The only thing I'm really upset about is the prices. To me the Fort is about just enjoying camping in my happy place, spending time with Fiends and relaxing.
    Yes, there are idiots that don't follow the rules, but that is anywhere. My usual reaction to that is "whoah, how immature" and move on.

    Great trip report so far.
    I'm jealous you can just unhitch and push it into place (even more jealous of Carol and her motorized set up). S'more with peanut butter cups sound excellent, I'll have to try that sometime.
    Can't wait to keep reading along!

    I just wanted to say WELCOME!
    I think your question as been pretty much answered. I believe that there may be a section in the pet agreement that you have to sign saying the same as above, about no pets in tent or pop ups (unfortunately I don't have one available to me at the moment to check).

    Cortezcapt (Derek) got a reaction from fladogfan aka Gretchen in Skipper Canteen Restaurant Opening at Magic Kingdom   
    It's also a slower time of year and they have drilled into everyone the need for ADRs. Especially in the parks unless there was a big sign out in front saying "no ADR needed" I'd probably walk on by thinking I would never get in.
    I hope it works out and they keep it off the ADR list, if they had at least one sit down restaurant at each park for us nonplanners would be great!

    Cortezcapt (Derek) got a reaction from keith_h in Rumor: Google Street View Coming to WDW?   
    Oh I hope not, it's already bad enough following / dodging people paying more attention to their phones then what they are doing. If they are following step by step directions through the parks it will be horrible.

    Cortezcapt (Derek) got a reaction from fladogfan aka Gretchen in RUMOR: Earful Tower Coming Down at Hollywood Studios   
    I don't know what to call it as it is. Usually I call it MGM or MGHOLLY... whatever or that other park that's not MK, Epoct, or AK.
    I'm just glad that got rid of that eyesore of a hat! (Sorry to that hat lovers). Hopefully though doubtful they reuse the tower somewhere.

    Cortezcapt (Derek) got a reaction from PureTcrazy...rita in So, how many of you are renewing your season passes?   
    We renewed our annual (now platinum) pass when we were up there over Christmas. The CM I talked to kept tring to play up the free photo pass as worth the price increase. I'd rather pay less and not have the photo pass.
    The photo pass isn't something we ever used before but now I will be getting my picture taken every chance I can. Haha

    Woo-hoo I got randomly picked to empty my pockets and go through the metal detector at Hollywood Studios tonight!
    On another note when I was going into the MK Wednesday night around 11 the metal detectors looked shut down for the night (park open till 1 and magic hours till 3).

    Cortezcapt (Derek) got a reaction from BradyBzLyn...Mo in WiFi coming to the Fort ...someday?   
    I asked today when I picked up the Internet bag. The CM at the desk laughed when I said I had heard November, and said that they were told February then told to tell people March.

    Cortezcapt (Derek) got a reaction from Chainsaw in Shipping packages to the Fort - Questions   
    I'm sure someone will be along soon who can answer better. We have had several things shipped to the Fort with no problem, but all where while we were there. As I understand it though all it takes is the name on the reservation and site number or conformation number (if you haven't checked in yet) and arrival date. Maybe a call ahead to have it noted on your reservation that something will ship and may arrive before you do. Everything we have had shipped has been UPS and have never had any problems. The desk usually calls or leaves a letter at your site saying you have something to pick up.

    Hmm I wonder if you can put in your site/cabin number and it tell you how to get home, that could come in handy. <br /><br />I'm sure no fiend has ever gone into an off limits area on a cart, it shouldn't effect anyone here. <br />;)<br /><br /><br /><br />Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk<br /><br />

    Or take it down to the beach and have a bonfire (ok that might not go over that well, but would be fun!)

    Cortezcapt (Derek) got a reaction from BradyBzLyn...Mo in Last season for the Osbourne Lights   
    Don't want to get anyone's hopes up to much, wouldn't hold my breath and maybe just wishful thinking but we were told by a cm in guest relations that it will be the last year for the lights there and how they are set up now. But to look forward to them or a similar display to be somewhere else in coming years.
