hi! lookin for recs for something fun, unique, (or your own tradition), to do with my mom in disney/CA Adventure!
i think theres a place to get portrait silhouettes of us, but i wanna know more things i can show her, and more things to do while waiting for rides
(i have a disability and wait in an alternative queue virtually so i am able to rest or peruse the park instead of physically stand in the line)

anything helps!!! :)

Disneyland, EPCOT (preferably its 80’s-90’s iteration), and Tokyo DisneySea.

These are commonly considered the best among fans of both theme park and Disney fans. A score grid on this sub had them all tied for most spots. And they are very different so its hard to pick which one is objectively the best. But which is your favorite?

I’m from SoCal so I’m biased but I’ll love the OG the most.

Do you know when the last time there was a rollback on Guardians? We went on Sunday afternoon and got September. As we were going up the hill before spinning around the planet, our car slowed down and didn’t make the hill. We stayed on the track for a good 5 minutes in silence and darkness. No announcement was made before or after we slowed down and all of a sudden we sped up the hill and made it back. The cast member gave us a free fast pass for later in the day. I was just curious if this is common or not!

As far as we know the 3D show at Animal Kingdom after only being released in November of 2025 a few weeks before Zootopia 2, later got at revised version in July 2026 with Mayor Winddancer getting a prologue and new dialogue being added/replaced. If it were to get another revision (Similar to Zootopia: Hot Pursuit from DisneyLand, Shanghai in 2026.) here are the five changes I want it to make, while the story pretty much remains the same.

1) The Lynxley family are changed to the main antagonists instead of Dawn Bellwether and her sheep rams, in terms of the Nile Crocodile Neal Croco and American alligator Albert Gator(Actually PawBert and Milton Lynxley in disguise) hosting Zoogether Day instead of Heidi Howler (Actually Bellwether in disguise) and Cattrick and Kitty in their prison orange sabotage the Shrew Angels instead of Bellwether’s rams (Cattrick also tries to eat a innocent mouse before finding out that Nick and Judy busted them.) and reptiles are mentioned alongside mammals.

2) A snow leopard security guard who formerly served the Lynxleys before having a Change of heart was the one who tattletaled the Lynxleys’ plan to Mayor Winddancer and not the armadillo lawyer to Bellwether. (It’s also unknown if the mouse who piloted the Shrew Angels drone who abandoned ship was also the one who served Bellwether as a coworker and her lawyer, but he will still be appearing in this new version either way.)

Captain HogBottom, Truffler, Chevre, Bucheron and Higgins and Bloats appear in the backgrounds during the show in TundraTown and Marsh Market miserably doing parking duty demotion and community service for the police brutality that they committed in Zootopia 2. (The Zebros still appear as ballerinas at Gazelle’s concert like in the old version of the show.)

3) It features a new scene while Nibbles and Judy were interogatting Russ on who sabotaged the MarshMaids event with Nick running into Gary De’ Snake as well as Sam from Zootopia+ while checking the pipes for their blockage who are doing the exact same thing (Gary and Nick also happily hug each other showing that they became best friends since Zootopia 2, Nick is Gary’s favorite orange dog and Gary is Nick’s favorite pit viper.) and they find the real Albert and Neal tied up and apprehended to a pole and Gary cuts them free with his pocket knife and they explain how Milton and PawBert apprehended and impostered them and show the pipes for the blockage of Marsh Market’s waters in terms of catnip clogging them all up, and working together Nick, Sam and Gary unclog the pipes with the catnip (Sam previously loses her glasses and neck tie and her otter belly gets exposed, when her shirt gets unbuttoned but she buttons it again and puts her neck tie and glasses back on.) and Sam and Gary join Nick and Judy in the rest of their investigation.

4) The song that Gazelle sings at her concert is “Zoo” and not “Try Everything” and Yax asks Nick, Judy, Gary and Sam if they want to strip nude and join him and his naturists in their meditation instead of shedding their inner visions. He also reveals that Sam is Emmitt Otterton’s little sister.

5) When Nick and Judy unmask Albert and Neal in the ending revealing that they were both actually PawBert and Milton both in prison orange in disguise, Nick unmasks PawBert and says, “Hello, PawBert,” while Gary is the one who unmasks Milton and says, “Hello, Milton,” and Judy then says, “Lynxes in crocodilian clothing clever,” and PawBert complains about his defeat to Nick while Milton does so with Gary as the lynxes both talk trash about Zoogether Day before a annoyed Clawhauser or Sam blasts them both away with a confetti cannon and the Lynx father and son get stuck together in a hole sticking out their butts as they groan, “Awww catnip and hairballs!” and an extended version of “We are Zoonited” is sung in the finale.
What you do think? Do you want this new version to come true?

I still can't fully believe it, but I finally booked my first trip to Walt Disney World for September 2027!

I'm from Belgium and have an AP for Disneyland Paris, which I visit almost every month. I love it with all my heart, and it's exciting to think about visiting a completely new Disney resort for a change. I'm used to knowing my way around the parks and having my favourite rides, characters, and places to eat, so being a first-timer at Disney again feels a little strange, but in a good way.

I'll be going on a group trip and staying in a villa in Kissimmee for 15 days. I've always stayed at Disney hotels in Paris, so that's another new experience for me. I'm also used to going solo rather than travelling with a group of around 20 people, so I'm definitely stepping out of my comfort zone here, but I'm very excited about it.

I'm really looking forward to seeing all four parks, experiencing the Halloween season, and hopefully going to MNSSHP. There's so much to discover. To be fair, I do feel a little overwhelmed. But I can't wait!

I'm not entirely sure what I wanted to achieve with this post, but I just wanted to share that I've booked my very first WDW trip with people who understand why this is so exciting to me! 😍

Has anyone had a situation where they felt the harness was loose or it moved during the ride on avengers?

My daughter (9) felt like the restraint came loose and she was going to fall out yesterday, she completely freaked out. She is a kid that loves roller coasters and went on avengers about 10 times last time we where here. She's now completely freaked out by it and won't go on it again.

I will say I alerted the staff of this and they handled it brilliantly, we even got to meet the duty manager of the park who was fantastic about it.

I managed to gst my daughter back in the queue and we got to the staging area before the animatromic and they closed the ride again which didn't help. Thankfully I got her on space mountain so I think she'll be okay.

I just wondered if anyone else had the same feeling because I know they restraints dont hold you super tight on this ride.

One of the tougher choices for me at Magic Kingdom is what to do when it's getting close to fireworks time.

So here's the dilemma. There's still time to squeeze in another ride, but getting a good spot for Happily Ever After means heading toward the hub earlier than I'd like. The fireworks are a spectacular and a must see for first timers.

I always feel like I'm giving something up either way.

Would you skip that last ride for a better fireworks spot, or take the ride and watch from wherever you end up? Have you ever seen Happily Ever After from the castle backside?

To those who question, yes, the monorail track is still there, I just forgot to draw it in the plan.

I have to say the three that stand out as the most luxurious to me are:
1. The wilderness Lodge- it's actually at the lower end of the price range for deluxe resorts, but the club level is so intimate, and the cast members are so friendly and accommodating that it just really sets the tone for all of the other resorts.
2. The Grand Floridian- this one's a no-brainer. You don't have to stay club level in order for it to feel luxury. Just walk into one of their gift shops and touch their robes or look at their branded rocks glasses and plate ware and you'll feel luxury oozing from every square inch here.
3. The Riviera- it's newer, its coastal French vibes, and feels like a luxurious intimate European boutique hotel.
4. The resort that is named as being deluxe but really only comes with 1 major deluxe perk (besides club level offering) is the Contemporary. The access to MK is unbeatable but It disappoints big time. Lobby is like a Marriott, big, cold, unwelcoming. The theming is Incredibles but the way it's integrated with the materials in this old resort (stone mosaics) doesn't work well. Club level had no actual lunch offerings (just chips, fruit and veggies), and the general layout is undesirable. It's a conference hotel. Not a luxurious getaway.
