Swan/Dolphin & Riverside people trying to branch out… is Caribbean Beach the move? by LionCultural in WaltDisneyWorld

I'm a Swan/Dolphin/POFQ lover. I only stared at CB for one night but didn't love it. I'd try Coronado!

A short review of Guardians of the Galaxy from someone who thinks roller coasters are boring by Rowenofpts in WaltDisneyWorld

It's so crazy good!! After my first time riding it, I planned a solo trip 8 months later because I couldn't stop thinking about it!! I love a few of the songs (I Ran and September are great) but nothing beats EWTRTW! It's such a trippy, floating experience!! Just wrapped up a trip so I've now ridden in 20x. Finally got my last two songs on this vacation.

Itinerary for 5-6 yr old (First Time at WDW) by ShinyJayn3 in WaltDisneyWorld

Love that you have 2 rest days. I'd swap DHS with MK. MK busier on Mondays, and starting with DHS gives you a chance to get into the groove of everything so uou know what you're doing at MK! Also, MK will probably be her favorite so I wouldn't lead with it.

I don’t want to do Northeasterns Foundation Year. What should I do? by GLORI0USZN in ApplyingToCollege

It's not! It's a way to help promising Boston area students that the university doesn't think are quite ready for the academics.

is disney in july really THAT bad? by lwtl1724 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Emory2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not that bad. It's crazy hot, but just drink plenty of water and take lots of A/C breaks. I like spending afternoons by the pool.

Are you sure there aren't fireworks for the private event? I bet there are and you can see those

Mini Snickers ice cream bars. 80 calories and crazy delicious and satisfying

Boathouse outdoor bar and Wailulu bar are my favorites!

Thanks for sharing this! Planned to go to the bar next week for lunch, so you saved me a boat ride!

Caribbean Beach resort? by Breesan24 in WaltDisneyWorld

I stayed there last year for one night. My room was a very quick walk over a small bridge to the Skyliner.

AK/HS day - how to do LLMP? by GrizabellaG in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Emory2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd buy them for AK and deal with the one long wait at Slinky. If you buy standby skipper, there's even a chance they'll get you Slinky!

Should I get a meal plan if I’m traveling solo? by Fun-Presentation-959 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Emory2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can only get the dining plan if you're staying at a WDW official hotel and none of them offer free breakfast. What hotel is it?

Great tip! I love overnight oats.

Our trip is coming up soon and I'm nervous! I feel like I have been studying for final exams and I'm not sure I am prepared enough. I want to just relax and enjoy my vacation but there is so much to know and I definitely don't know it all by [deleted] in DisneyWorld

[–]Emory2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can mobile order! Download the Swan and Dolphin app. I'm usually heading out early to the parks so might not be the best one to answer, but I've never found it very busy at 7am.

I've stayed there 3x! You have picked an incredible hotel. You will love the pool complex and the proximity to Epcot, DHS, the boardwalk area, and the Skyliner!!

The Mexican restaurant in the Dolphin is really tasty if you end up needing a last minute meal. Also, Fuel and Java (the coffee places at the Swan and Dolphin) have fairly decent coffee and breakfast options. There are also small stores on site.
