    So my daughters dance school is going to perform in Disney world which is very exciting... but I’ve never traveled like this before. I’m used to doing my own thing. I know these groups usually stay in the all stars. Has anyone gone before as part of a team? What does Disney expect of the...

    Merch you wish the parks had?

    So true about the plus sizes! 2/3 of our country is plus size, you’d think we would make clothes that fit the majority.

    Sci-Fi Dine-in is not for us!

    Sorry you didn’t like it! Different strokes for different folks. I thought it was great that I could put the kids in front of us to keep an eye on them but not have to deal with them during dinner lol. No stolen food and no drinks in my lap.

    Merch you wish the parks had?

    Real raincoats - if north face and Disney made a rain jacket I would probably buy one for each of us on every trip.

    Does POFQ have a true "Disney" feel?

    POFQ will give you that Disney feeling of being in their version of New Orleans. The theming is done well, right down to the little streets you walk along to get to your building. They have a fancy man greeter and a good selection of nola style food in the food court. We loved it:)

    What happened to Disney Springs?

    I’m not a fan. I don’t need an outdoor shopping mall, I can buy all that stuff when I’m home. What I do like are the Disney specialty shops and stuff specific to Disney World.

    reason why value pools lack water slides?

    Actually, some companies actively make their lowest price offering so terrible that their customers get lured in by the lower price product, but when they see how bad it is end up purchasing a higher priced product. A good example is a base model car. I think buying a car and then finding out...

    reason why value pools lack water slides?

    No money, no slide! Gotta pay extra. We are in the camp of Must Have Slide. My daughter’s creative writing piece for school one year was about the POFQ dragon. We can’t go backwards at this point.

    Problem in the Cabin

    I think it’s just the luck of the draw. We’ve had good stays at the cabins, though I admit that one of the bathrooms was a little damp and musty. They are converted trailers, but location location location.

    Oh my gosh! I need advice!

    I’m the Planner for my family and I like to ask everyone traveling what their top 3 Must Do things are. I structure our plan around those top things and fill in with all the other disneyness. One thing I learned the hard way is to make sure everyone has their Disney IDs set and linked up as...

    Booking through Costco?

    I called Costco travel and wasn’t even able to find dates available at the Disney resorts, though the rep did look for all of October and November. They did have the swan available. 7 days with base tickets for a family of four was about 4100.

    Disney Calories

    I also gained weight on our last trip to Disney because I was STUFFING myself. Even the extra 7000 steps a day could not balance out the insane amount of food I ate. If you use a website like MyFitnessPal you can search for a similar meal and get an estimate of the calories. That is how I...

    Yikes didn’t realize I booked during marathon week in January ?????

    We went during this week (also did not know in advance) and it was totally fine. They only way we knew there had been a race was seeing the runners on the bus.

    Did anyone find WL or FW more "buggy" with insects?

    We’ve stayed at FW and WL and did not have any bug issues. None of us were bitten, even the mosquito magnet family members.
