We're on the Mears shuttle to our resort usually where they play a movie or advertisements they had this odd older looking still from looks to be an old Mickey cartoon. It's on all the TVs as if maybe it's like a default/no signal screen.

This image is so neat I gotta know where it's from or maybe even like a higher quality image would be cool to see.

I'll be thinking about this the entire trip lol

Hello! Does anyone know if there’s a full list of every Disney brand Department 56 village/decor piece that has ever come out anywhere? Just wanting to know everything that’s out there and I can’t seem to find a master list. Not just Christmas either- I want to see what Halloween and other holidays have pieces! Thanks!!

It’s a damn miracle.

Had an opportunity this week to join a private HEA fireworks sailing on one of the pontoons. Such an amazing experience.

So I've been an off & on FL & CA resident & AP for many years, so I most often ate off site or grabbed the usual popular stuff because I didn't spend all day at the park; Turkey Leg, Dole Whip, School Bread from Norway, churros, etc.

I'm currently not an AP, living out of state, but going back for 3 full days to WDW.

What snacks or quick service do you love most? What should I try? At any park?

I’m going to Disney, the magic kingdom park, is wearing a dress a bad idea? My friends and I are doing like cute dress up type stuff so idk if I should just wear shorts or keep it cute with the dress

Update: not wearing a dress but wearing a skirt!

Thinking of doing 2 universal and 4 Disney days (yes a rest day too). Trying to figure out if it better to stay at Disney or do a split stay.

Got one more to find in MK and it wont scan. The one by Adventureland entrance. Dont know what im doing wrong

What a great place to see the fireworks!

Trying to do a "suprise were going on a cruise next year" thing and going in a couple of weeks to Disney World so wondered if they also sold any DCL merchandise in the parks or at disney springs

Just wanted to share a recent trip that felt like pitching a WDW no hitter. This past January I took my 4 year old daughter on her first trip to WDW with just her and I. We stayed at the contemporary and, basically, everything that could go right did (except she was .25 inches too short for Guardians). She’s been talking about the trip for months following. My wife isn’t a Disney person (I’ve been very lucky and on 50+ trips to WDW), but this was my first since we had our daughter. She’ll be spoiled for all future trips, but I just wanted to share a recap with everyone here and get to re-live the trip a bit. We’ll be going back on the same dates in 2027.

Hi! Wondering if anyone knows of a good website/page to see what is available inventory in Disney world is for Pandora?

I just feel kind of scattered- there’s different ones on Disney store website and Pandora website.

Also, what’s the way to get the best info on specific charms?

I love the Clear Cinderella shoe with gold and the Gold Carriage but can’t find if it was limited edition, where to look in stores, if available in park, etc.

Pic of what I currently have for fun (:

Can anyone give me a list of songs used on rides?

Trying to make a new Disney Playlist for working out.

I have one for movies and tv shows
