I think the Kenny the Pirate site tells you where you can find each character, with lots of tips for finding the rare ones too.

Might be worth a look!

That's brilliant, thank you both!

Sounds like by the 4th we'll be all set- can't wait:mickey:

Possibly my favourite thing about Magic Kingdom is Wishes. We're going to Disney at Christmas this year (one week onsite, one week at Universal).

As much as I'm looking forward to seeing Holiday...

Managed to get the times and days I wanted! Thanks!

I've actually booked 1900 park fare for one of our breakfasts but I need to check with my stepson if he's happy with the characters- with his autism he's fine with the characters in a costume but...

Thank you so much! We'll definitely be checking out wishes from there, we're just so lucky! Even my partner who refuses to get excited until we're actually on the plane is over the moon, he's...

Just wanted to quickly update after all your help: our travel agent has managed to arrange us 2 rooms at the grand floridian with some extra cost, but no where near as much as we expected to pay!...

The one we return to over and over again: 'Ohana. Followed by our favourite character meal by far: Tusker House

Definitely try it! I'd recommend booking an earlier ADR so you can see some of the animals and you have to order the bread service (and order all the dips!) the butter chicken was gorgeous too
...

As usual, thank you all so much! Lots of helpful tips and recommendations as usual!

I'll give Disney a call and be extra nice and explain the situation and hopefully they'll be able to sort...

Thanks, we are staying at the actual lodge not dvc and it does sound like the lobby etc will all be completely uneffected so that does make me feel better. My main concern really is the noise from...

So I had booked our first ever (and possibly only) Christmas stay at the WL for this year, but have just had an email detailing the construction work. We're staying for a week, and will probably be...

Even if you don't order a magic band to arrive at your home, you can still customize on MDE and arrange to collect a color band with your name on when you check in. Disney only delivers the bands to...

Glad you enjoyed it, we'll be staying there for the first time next Christmas!

I'd agree with this. We recently spent a week at the PortAventura park near Barcelona, in Spain, and stayed in one of their hotels. I must have said "It's not as good as Disney" at least 20 times!...

I say do it! I'm exactly the same as you- total wimp, and it's only getting worse with age! When I was young, I didn't have a problem with Splash at all, then refused to go on it for a good 15...

the Disney website says that they'll be publishing the 2015 rates tomorrow 😊

Thanks for the responses! Think I'm going to need to start googling Christmas pictures to see which my family will prefer as both sound great!

Thanks, this really helps! I loved Yeehaw Bob when we stayed at POFQ and that's half the reason I want to stay at POR! I think the rest of my family would love him too. I think my mind is made up,...

So with 2015 prices just about to be released, we're trying to nail down which Moderate to stay at Christmas next year! Nothing like thinking ahead!:blush:

We've narrowed our choices down to...

Decision made! And hopefully it's one that will please all of the family! We're going to arrive on the 19th of December, spend a week in a moderate hotel, leaving Disney on the 26th so hopefully...

Thanks for all the advice! We're drawing up a pro and con list at the moment, but I think we may be slightly leaning towards Christmas for this trip, and then back our summer trips after that! I'll...

Hmmm decisions decisions. If we go at Christmas, we won't be going until about the 23rd of December. If we go in August, we go the last two weeks, and for the last week at least we find it a bit...

So we're considering spending our two weeks next year at Disney at Christmas rather than the summer. I know the parks are going to be EXTREMELY busy, but my question is, is it worth it? We've never...

Your other option would be to drop your car off at the Disney Car Centre on property, it's quite near the TTC. They'll then drive you to your hotel (they may take you straight to a park if you like...
