Thanks for posting this. I did not realize they changed the name. That's good to know since now I know that my Epass Extra is still good and the same as the Uni Pass. We used it on a trip up to NJ and the pass worked great for us too. They changed the transponder to the same as the Sunpass; much smaller than the Epass Xtra I have and has suction cups instead of the velcro that sticks to the windshield.

Remember, the 50th anniversary celebration will be going into 2023, so you have all of 2022 available. Things BETTER be back to normal by then. 😄

Wow, so much of what he says is wrong. Indoor seating for P&Js has been happening since they reopened. The bus to Wilderness Lodge has always been there and has always shared its spot with the Magic Kingdom bus. It is not an indication that Trails End is not coming back. I finally stopped watching it.

My wife is retired from Disney, so as a result, her and I have passes. We go in at least once a week and have enjoyed the parks. That said, my wife frequently states that if she was a paying guest, she would be upset. Even though we have the passes and only live a short distance away, we find the need for park reservations, the lack of restaurants and missing attractions frustrating, but at least we can come in for a few hours and enjoy ourselves. Disney has done a great job dealing with the pandemic, and we do feel safe. However, as they raised the capacity to 35%, they've obviously

Thanks. That's great to know.

Just curious, why? Never stayed in that loop, but doesn't look bad.

Yes, some people who "say" they are employees are stating the issue is COVID related. Who knows?

I was really surprised to see them allowing people to park on the surface lots. It explained why it was so crowded. There were more people there than I remember during previous Christmas seasons. They were limiting the number of people inside the buildings, but that was about it. The line for Gideon's Bakehouse stretched past Morimoto Asia and around the corner. They finally switched to a virtual cue for that.

We were there Sunday and it was nuts. The garages were full and the traffic was being parked on the surface lots. We got there in the morning and it wasn't too bad but by early afternoon it was crazy and we left. The traffic leaving the orange lot was backed all the way up the exit ramp to the top level due to people trying to get into the surface lots.

Walked by your site at 706 but you were not at the site. Nice location. That loop seemed really nice all December.

We were there this weekend and saw some work being done in many areas; including some of the wifi towers. Maybe they are in the middle of maintenance. When we stayed for two weeks last month, the wifi was spotty. Sometimes it was great, other times non-existent and I used my phone as a hot spot. We were close to an antenna as well, so that wasn't the issue.

I agree with this. Unless you have some really unusual connections, these lengths should be fine. My sewer hose is 20' and on a couple of occasions where the hookup was more towards the front, I was glad I had the twenty feet. The power is usually more to the rear and the water near the front; but as stated above that can vary.

At least the Camping Connection store is now closed. Don't know if their mobile service continues.

We walked it yesterday. It is really very nice. The whole walkway is very well done. Best of all, on our walk back from the Grand to the Magic Kingdom, you do not have to pass through security to get back on the boat to Fort Wilderness. Fort Wilderness and Wilderness Lodge now use the new boat dock right next to the walking path to the Grand.

Got it. Never realized that. 🙂

I'm up to date and the app works fine. Strange that it isn't showing up on the app store.

I have it on my iPhone now and it works fine. However, I cannot find it by searching in the app store.

We are at the Dort now and they are installing 5G on poles. There is a pole going in behind site 228.

We’re staying here now and the Settlement playground area is now open. Sign says there is a limit of 10 people. There is also a mask sign as well.

It is mind boggling.

Yes, that would be another good one.

At Disney Springs you should have no issues at Maria and Enzo's or a place like STK Steakhouse or the Boathouse. Depends on the type of food you're looking for. In the hotels it may be a bigger issue, especially during dinner hours since many of the hotel restaurants are still closed and those that are open are filling up each day.

So sorry to hear about this. The layoffs are going far beyond the performers and Guest Services. I have friends with 25+ years in at Team Disney in the same situation. Other whole divisions have been completely wiped out and eliminated. It is not a good situation at all. If they don't get California opened soon, it is going to get much worse.

The Dapper Dans are back. We watched them last weekend. They are in their Halloween costumes as the Cadaver Dans.
