This was posted on a FB page, so I can’t confirm it. People were on TOT and looked at their picture on the monitor at the end and said it looked great. It never showed up on MDE. They contacted Disney and after some investigating, they were told that the photo was deleted because someone on the ride took off their mask. Guess Disney is concerned that people would post the pictures showing maskless riders causing more people to ride without masks.

But yet it’s still hard to get an AP reservation

Waiting in long lines at guest services or being on hold for hours with Disney to troubleshoot problems. And confusion over how their refunded passes are calculated in a formula that isn’t clear. Some people are still waiting for their

https://wdwnt.com/2020/08/photos-video-guests-evacuate-fully-submerged-log-on-splash-mountain-at-the-magic-kingdom/ The Laughin’ Place has had its fair share of trouble this summer, as Splash Mountain has seen a series of issues since the reopening of the Magic Kingdom—from long lines at the gift shop, to guests being evacuated on official reopening day, and a short stint of unexpected downtime. Now, it seems another set of photos and video are surfacing from guests who not only had to evacuate the ride, but who managed to see their log fully submerged shortly after exiting it.

That's good to know. We haven't asked Busch yet since we didn't have plans to visit anytime soon.

We got the passholder lanyards for Busch Gardens festival in the spring and used only 3 punches before the world turned upside down. They are having a limited festival now and said we can use the punches, but we are still staying away from crowded areas. Will have to see if we can use them for next years festival or get our $$$ back.

At the theme parks, the ongoing deadlock between Actors' Equity and Walt Disney World – which has many furloughed performers feeling like voiceless pawns in a battle between their union and their employer – spil

Just someones insight of a Disney trip during COVID. I think the editors did a good job selecting a non "Disney person" to visit and do the article.

Pre COVID, is was checking thrift stores for books by Robert Heinlein. Used to have a lot about 45 to 50 years ago, and over the years, moves, and raising 4 kids I got rid of them. I’ve found 3 or 4 so far.

I was reading the Xanth series quite a while ago. I think I got up to about 15 when the total count was in the low 20s. 41? I'll never get caught up! Love that I-4 is the Gap Chasm! These were good...The Wheel of Time is a series of high fantasy novels written by American author James Oliver Rigney Jr., under his pen name of Robert Jordan. Originally planned as a six-book series, The Wheel of Time spanned fourteen volumes, in addition to a prequel novel and two companion books.

I have enough friends who are parents to have heard the stories of long lines, staggering expense, and (for them, if not the kids) boredom. The whole park is an obstacle course of expensive treats that your children will beg you to b

Walt Disney World Resort Hotels Now Providing Security Warnings After Hotel Guests Were Scammed Over Resort Room Phones While staying at the cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground, an interesting announcement on the resort TV caught our attention. We recently broke the story that Walt Disney World Resort hotel guests had been getting scammed while staying at the hotels. Guests were asked to confirm their address and credit card information over the phone. Shortly after, fraudulent charges take place on these guests’ credit cards. While watc

Our first trip was in 1977, and the site was probably around $15. Not even sure if they had partial/full at that time. I can't remember what loop we stayed in. In the 90s we had gotten a Cabin as cheap as $60 a couple of times.

Walt Disney World Issues Survey About Interest in Attractions, Including Country Bear Jamboree Could changes be coming to the Country Bear Jamboree? Walt Disney World is sending out surveys about attractions, inquiring about guest interest. KSTU reporter John Franchi posted a screenshot of his survey on Twitter, which asked about the attraction that’s entertain guests since the Magic Kingdom’s opening day. Franchi noted that Disney asked if they felt the attraction matched terms like “excited,” “boring,” or “inspirational.” Last year, it was rumored tha

They are going to go faster, let the lake water splash in, and wash the Covid off of all the passengers!

Guess their spellcheck app didn't catch the error!

Push? Right to MDE ? What type of notification, a text, email,
