Official August 2009 thread!

[rotlex]

Yes totally true and during our park stay AK hours went from 7:00 to 5:00. We lost two whole hours and our 6:45 Yak and Yeti reservation

I am really glad I just read these few threads! We had a 6:15 reservation at Tusker House, AK, for Friday August 28th. For the heck of it, I just checked park hours, and they are now closing at 5pm!

I quickly went to the ADR system, and was luckily able to get a 4:30pm reservation for Tusker House for the same day. That would have really, really stunk! You would think they would have some type of system for notifying you about stuff like this!

Leaving in 10 Days!!! Make sure to check DHS calendar too! There has been a few additions of 10 p.m. Fantasmic shows. I think one on the 27th and another one I am forgetting when.

not too happy that they are adding a show, I hope this does not mean free dining time will be busy?? I wonder if they had 2 shows last year???

Hey, I just noticed it is my 400th post I am glad it was, because I was celebrating 10 days to my happy place

We have been to WDW for the last 5 years in the last half of August and they have always had 2nd showings of Fantasmic. So, it's nothing new.

Im on my way, on the plane as I type! AirTran has wifi and I found a code for a free 24 hour pass. I'm so excited! There's a lot of cloud cover so I can't really see anything.

Am I reading this wrong or did you get upgraded to Grand Floridian???

That would be amazing. How did you find out? Did they call to let you know?
