Congrats!!! Happy for all of you!!! As a lifetime student, I know how challenging it is to balance it all.

I don't think so. They used to eat together sometimes, but then Kenny said some not nice things about Josh. Disney blogger fight! And why do I know this? I need to limit my internet time apparently.

Do normal folks have access to that? Why aren't you informing us?

So it's true....

But to seriously answer your question, I like the big sites. And both the Nutella waffle and salted caramel are AMAZING.

We are going to have to keep a close eye on her!

Yep, it's going to make that ADR a lot harder to get when it happens.

The rumor is that Doc McStuffins will be added to the Hollywood and Vine breakfast and lunch sometimes in early 2014. She will likely replace June or OSO. Kenny seems to be the character guru, and she's appeared at D23 and a touring show (came to Atlanta), so I can see this happening. It would be a good move. http://kennythepirate.com/2013/12/02/rumor-doc-mcstuffins-to-begin-appearing-in-early-2014/

From Kenny the Pirate.... He's saying resort guests will use the app while non resort guests will have to use the kiosks. http://kennythepirate.com/2013/12/13/disneys-animal-kingdom-to-test-fastpass-only-next-week/ Not sure what his sources are, but if this is true, those kiosk lines are going to be LONG!

Yeah, in order for it to look cool anywhere, they need lots of people wearing them. They should push carts of them around like they do the light up toys.

Disney is making a movie called Decedents for the Disney Channel about the teen children of some of the villains. https://thewaltdisneycompany.com/blog/all-new-contemporary-live-action-disney-channel-original-movie-descendants-introduce-teenage-ch It could be terrible, but I'll watch it.

They look way cooler than they sounded to me. They would be fun on a Disney tree.

Have any Fiends seen this yet? http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2013/12/glow-with-the-show-ear-hats-brighten-osborne-family-spectacle-of-dancing-lights/

We have the Chevy equivalent in our class c and get 8-9 depending if we're towing.

I'm in! Loved your last report and looking forward to this one!

Yes :)

Exactly.

These pictures are great! Now I want cake. Dave, I used printerpix.com to make a book for my mom of our last Disney trip and was very happy with the quality. The family thought it was an actually Disney product that I had paid big bucks for. Truth is, I got a groupon, and it only cost me $12 including shipping. If you register for their site, they send coupons fairly regularly. Last week they had 75% off.

Love the shot of the Epcot ball with the Christmas trees. I've never eaten at that restaurant, but now I want to.

According to the Disney Food Blog, Beaches sand Cream now offers ADRs. I've never been before, but I have a feeling people aren't going to be happy.

If it's your 3rd trip of the year, and you're staying 2 weeks, you don't need a plan past FP+ and ADRs. And that's from the Queen of Planning.

We'd probably be 10-10:30ish. Hmmm.... maybe I should make one just in case. I get paranoid about these things.

That thought has worried me. LOL! Actually, I've moved on from spreadsheets. Now I just have lists.... Word format.... The order I plan to ride all the rides with my FP+ and ADR times noted. Yep, I'm crazy. But I don't wait in line.

I hate waiting in lines, and we usually go during really busy times, so I always have a plan. My family thought it was crazy the first time, but when they saw waits over 2 hours on things we'd already ridden twice, they understood. I think it depends on what kind of trip you want. Do you want to try to do it all, or are you OK with just doing some things? For our next trip, we're being more laid back because it's our 3rd this year. As an FYI, DHS regularly opens around 30 minutes earlier than announced during busy times. It's common for AK and Epcot to open about 15 minutes early.
