I was gone for almost 24 hours and came back to pages of lovely posts. My heart skipped a beat thinking maybe there would be more news in all of those posts....but the wait is still on. Glad to see @The Dirty Steve is still listening in! We need an appearance from you every now and then to keep us sane. :bored:

I edit my post to stand correct @black562 is still with us as well! :love:

So is there an American version of Vegemite? Obviously we don't have a 'mite' item....but something all Americans eat that others consider an acquired taste?

My husbands family is all from Scotland, they think ranch dressing is disgusting haha

My ADR window opens tomorrow! Which means I can pass the time today with some final reservation planning. :mickeybar

Question time for the group -

Which crowd calendar do you find to be most accurate?

Thinking of making a room only reservation at Music in order to lock in my days. I don't want to to do a package beacause of the down payment amount. My plan is to call and switch to free dinning promo when it comes out. (hopefully it will be when we have chosen to go in October or November) Do I need to tell them anything special when I book about the possiblity that I will be adjusting. Can you still mail a package to the resort? Do any of the gift shops sell Coppertone sunscreen?
thanks

So the deposit is differently with room only? Didn't know this.

I would like to know that as well because I've found some crowd calendar that says for example recomended park: epcot, and another calendar says: avoid epcot for the same day

I use easywdw not only does he tell you where to go he tells you why. He isnt updated for fall yet but you can look at his 2016 calendars to get an idea. Pandora may throw all of the calendars off being the new player in the game.

I like his as well because he is straight forward and doesn't just make off the wall prediction.

I've always used Josh at easywdw. This time I'm going late November which he has no calendar for. His December calendar is 2 years old. So I tried to use that for reference not the day buyback using like first Monday in December but not being able to see any November was hard. So I paid for touring plans. But it's recommending EMH for park service with evening and I just read that is a big no no. And in the past I've always avoided parks with EMH. I think I'm going to have to look at Josh's reasoning and build my own for my dates.

On room only is 1 night deposit plus you can pay the balance at check in

I'm so sad that he didn't do nov and dec for 2016. Would be a total lifesaver.

Will do. So you can google it but it's not listed? I've even tried to back into it by changing the web address from October to november.

I got it. You are a lifesaver. He needs to add these to his links.

Going back to the Magic Band conversation.....these are my old ones that I decorated. See I fancied up the old gray one...LOL. The pink is my favorite.

We are all in this together! I think he never finished his day to day reasoning behind the calendar so it was never officially posted
I believe you can find December 2016 also

Last year after FD dropped, a thread was created so we could all continue to plan our fall trips together. Maybe someone will start another thread like that this year.

Oh I hope someone does, as others have mentioned, this is the friendliest thread, with the most helpful people that I've ever been a part of.
