10 Things We’ll Never Do Again at Disney World
Every Walt Disney World fan has a bucket list, but the smart ones also have lists of things we’ll never do again. This isn’t like our list of easy first-timer mistakes. Rather, these are things we’ve done and said to one another: “Wow, that was stupid on our part. Let’s avoid it at all costs in the future.”
Truthfully, there are very few things at Walt Disney World that we’d never do again. Our bucket lists far longer than our “never again” lists, because most things at Walt Disney World are worth of a second chance. Menus at restaurants change, hotels are overhauled, and attractions are tweaked or re-imagined over time.
In fact, since we originally published this a few years ago, a lot has changed. Perhaps we should take the immortal words of celebrated thinker Justin Bieber to heart and “never say never.” Thankfully, Walt Disney World tends to listen to guest feedback and correct mistakes and experiences that score poorly on guest satisfaction surveys. Over the years, we’ve had to remove several things from this list because we’ve done them again (sometimes inadvertently or not by choice) and had dramatically different–and better–experiences…
To that point, we’ve removed different entries from the list:
- Dinner at Chef Mickey’s – We have a daughter now. There isn’t a single character meal at Walt Disney World that we won’t be doing in the near future. With that said, we revisited breakfast at Chef Mickey’s and it exceeded expectations. So maybe we’ll just stick to that and continue avoiding dinner?
- New Year’s Eve at Magic Kingdom – The last two times we did NYE or December 30 (basically the same) at Magic Kingdom, it went far better than expected. Crowds aren’t nearly as bad as they used to be, and usually peak earlier in the week.
- All Stars During Youth Sports – I’ve stayed at All Star Sports during two youth events (couldn’t pass up the price, even if I knew I was playing with fire) and it honestly wasn’t that bad. You still might want to avoid the All Stars during these events, but it’s no longer a “never again” for us–especially now that Pop Warner is gone from Walt Disney World.
- Step Foot in Dino-Rama – It’s extinct.
- Tomorrowland Speedway – We have a daughter now–one who loves cars and pretending to drive. Uh oh.
Another thing to note is that this list only covers things that are within our control to never do again at Walt Disney World. Over the years, the company has made the “choice” for us, by eliminating a lot of things that we’d otherwise love to do again. We’ve taken our final ride on Disney’s Magical Express and redeemed our last FastPass.
Those are things we will technically never do again at Walt Disney World, but are very much not in the spirit of this list, which is more like “NEVER AGAIN!” What won’t we do again at Walt Disney World? Here are the top 10+ things…
TODDLER TIME BONUS: Two Queen Beds – When it was just the two of us, we’d book whichever standard room type was cheapest. This often meant getting two queen beds, which was perfectly fine. We had a queen bed at home for the longest time and it was plenty of space. The other bed could be used as a workspace or where one of us unpacks their suitcase.
This does not work with a crib added to the mix. I think this is where the phrase, two’s company, three’s a crowd, was born. If you have two queen beds plus a crib (and other baby stuff), the room becomes virtually unnavigable. We never really took room size or floor space into consideration, as every resort was fine for just the two of us. Holy cow does adding one small human to the mix change the equation! It’s king rooms exclusively for us…for now.
Honestly, it feels like this is already ‘evolving’ again. That our best option is queen rooms that have a second bed that folds down from the wall and converts into a table or sofa. This is doubly true as Megatron will soon graduate to a regular bed, making the space-saving two queen arrangement the optimal one. Regardless, the two standard queen bed arrangement is two cramped–we need the convertible room for extra space.
TODDLER TIME BONUS: Split Stays – Honestly, it pains me to include this. I love split stays and this blog has advocated them for so long. All the while, parents have questioned our sanity, and now that we have a toddler of our own, we completely get it.
When traveling solo for research trips, I can pack up a hotel room in under 10 minutes. When it was just the two of us, the time was a tad higher than that. With a toddler, it’s much longer–packing is two steps forward, one step backwards on repeat. Other moving pieces of switching hotels just makes it way more trouble than it’s worth with a small child. This was one of the Biggest Lessons Learned on Baby Bricker’s Christmas 2025 Trip to Walt Disney World.
We still love split stays for a number of reasons, and recommend them to solo travelers and couples (especially those who pack light). We’ll absolutely do them again in the future once the logistics are easier, but for us for now, split stays are a no-go.
TODDLER TIME BONUS: Resorts Under Unavoidable Construction – We usually aren’t too fazed by construction at Walt Disney World, not even on the hotel side where it seems like there are perpetual projects at some resorts. A simple room request usually works wonders.
That’s still mostly our perspective, but after our Holiday Hotel Horror Stories at Walt Disney World, we will definitely be a little less cavalier about the unavoidable or all-encompassing projects. In particular, anything involving the lobby at a resort where the rooms radiate from the lobby, or any future projects at the tower-style hotels where everything is under one roof.
Note that this only applies while we’re traveling with a toddler and when it comes to unavoidable projects. We’d have zero hesitation to stay at Port Orleans Riverside between now and 2027 during its room overhauls, but would avoid the A-frame of the Contemporary if the Grand Canyon Concourse were redone. It’s a case-by-case basis.
10. Beauty and the Beast Sing-Along – This is a tricky one. We came of age during the Disney Renaissance and are huge fans of Beauty and the Beast as a result. On top of that, we’re new parents who cannot wait to share the movie with our daughter.
However, we also hate the Beauty and the Beast Sing-Along with the fiery passion of a thousand burning suns. I’ll spare you that rant again, but there’s a reason the Beauty and the Beast Sing-Along is dead last on our rankings of all 87 attractions at Walt Disney World. It’s worse than the worst direct-to-video sequel, and even the authors of bad fanfic could’ve penned a better script.
For us, this is a delicate needle to thread–making Megatron a big fan of Beauty and the Beast, while preventing her from ever learning of this atrocious show’s existence. One of my big fears is that we will succeed at the first, but fail at the second…which is a recipe for disaster.
Instead of never doing this show again, we will do it every single time we visit EPCOT. It’ll become the attraction we do more than anything else at Walt Disney World. Our frequent viewership alone will single-handedly prop up guest utilization numbers and inadvertently help keep this show around. We will become the villains.
9. Magic Kingdom on ‘Red Flag’ Days During Party Season – Magic Kingdom crowd dynamics during Party Season have been one of the key discussion points of our August through December crowd calendars for several years.
We’ve strongly recommended readers visit Magic Kingdom during the day on Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party nights, and Park Hop elsewhere around 4 pm. Conversely, we’ve recommended avoiding Magic Kingdom on non-party days.
There’s an added wrinkle to this from mid-October through December, Party Season “expands” from 2-3 days per week to 3-4 days per week. This results in some 4-5 days stretches when Magic Kingdom is only one until 10 pm or 11 pm once, and closes early all other nights. This creates major problems, especially on Main Street, as there are several days of crowds consolidated into a single date by virtue of those concentrated 6 pm closings.
If you do make the mistake of going–perhaps even on purpose as you want to see Magic Kingdom at night and it’s your only option–at least heed this one piece of advice: stay far away from Main Street before, during, and after Happily Ever After and Starlight Night Parade! Seriously. It can get downright uncomfortable and feel unsafe.
8. Lightning Lane Multi-Pass at Animal Kingdom – Let’s just say that there’s a reason why Animal Kingdom is now the “cheapest” park for Lightning Lane Multi-Pass. We beg of you: do not be fooled by this. It’s not actually a deal if it’s something you don’t need!
Even on busier days, you do not need LLMP at Animal Kingdom with even a scintilla of strategizing. This is discussed in countless posts, including in our Best Time-Saving Strategies for Walt Disney World, which says all you need to know for DAK is “don’t go during the middle of the day and stand in long lines.”
Seriously, that’s about it. Arriving early or staying late work perfectly fine for beating the crowds because most guests still treat it like a half-day park and attendance is significantly lower at Animal Kingdom than any other park at Walt Disney World.
As a result, a lower advertised base price for Lightning Lanes at Animal Kingdom is almost meaningless. This is especially true on days when Animal Kingdom is under $20–crowd levels are never bad enough on those dates to justify LLMP in the first place!
There’s one big exception to this, which is strategic Park Hopping. Some Lightning Lane power users might be able to leverage LLMP at DAK by pairing it with another park, savvy strategy, and a strong refresh game!
7. Pinocchio Village Haus Lunch Rush – We covered this one in Magic Kingdom’s Biggest Love-Hate Restaurant. After a fast and furious morning racing through Fantasyland, it’s common for kids and parents alike to hit a wall, needing food immediately or risking a meltdown. Enter Pinocchio Village Haus. Literally, they all enter Pinocchio Village Haus because it’s the nearest restaurant when the clock is ticking on a nuclear meltdown.
The core demographic of Pinocchio Village Haus during the midday rush is “hangry families that are 90 seconds to midnight on the WDW Doomsday Clock.” This is exactly why merely mentioning it can send shudders down the spine of longtime fans. We’ve almost all been there, with the war stories to tell about Pinocchio Village Haus and eerily similar not-so-fond memories of the restaurant.
Pinocchio Village Haus is the most infamous Magic Kingdom large-scale eatery, but it’s a similar story with the other high-capacity counter service restaurants. We’ve wandered aimlessly at Cosmic Ray’s trying to find a table and had people literally run into us rounding corners at Pecos Bills. The moral of the story is not to avoid these restaurants entirely–as they each have redeeming qualities–but to not do it during the lunch rush when it’s bonkers. Go early or late to save your time and sanity.
6. Pandora, Star Wars or Toy Story Lands Midday – There are a few components to this. First is crowds, which are always chaotic and take away from enjoying the lands. These lands have a lot of fun details, but when they’re packed with people, the crowds impede anyone’s ability to truly soak up these lands.
Long lines during the middle of the day certainly don’t help. This isn’t just triple-digit waits for the attractions, either. Walkways and shops become congested, and it’s more difficult to see everything as a result. Good luck meeting the Mandalorian and Baby Yoda or trying to find a table at Woody’s Lunch Box!
Second, you’re running a risk if rain is in the forecast. These lands are large and have few indoor escapes if the weather takes a turn for the worse. Adding insult to injury, they are a bit isolated from the rest of their respective parks. In short, if it starts raining in either and you’re not already inside, you will get wet. Your options for quickly ducking indoors are limited if not nonexistent.
Finally, there’s the simple reality that these lands are best at the beginning and end of the day. Pandora’s bioluminescence and organic life comes alive in the evening, and it truly feels like another planet. Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge has a spooky and serene sense to it, except in the marketplace where a variety of beautiful light fixtures give added texture and depth to everything. Toy Story Land’s cartoonish quality is even more exaggerated, with show lighting and popcorn lights adding even more vibrance to the land.
5. Summit Plummet – Despite my claim for years that I’m good on this, when we visited Blizzard Beach this year, I did Summit Plummet again. Almost as soon as it began, the realization washed over me like water that I had made a terrible mistake. To borrow the immortal words of Roger Murtaugh: I’m too old for this slide.
This is the only attraction on this list, and the reason for that is that we think people should judge attractions for themselves, because everyone has different preferences. (For example, there are probably a few of you who don’t like Country Bear Jamboree. That’s fine–some people don’t like masterpieces like The Godfather and Citizen Kane, either.)
For me, Summit Plummet at Blizzard Beach water park is something that’s moderately enjoyable and I’m glad it exists, because it looks really cool and is a great water slide concept…but once was enough. From the insanely long line to the feeling of pure terror to the crazy wedgie, I’m good on it for one lifetime. Actually, I’ll probably do it when I’m 65, against my better judgment once more, just to feel young and reckless again. 😉
4. “Improperly Pack” – This is somewhat of a blanket statement because it’s a mistake I’ve made repeatedly in different ways. Basically, I have a propensity to simultaneously under and over-pack, and bring clothing for the weather I want rather than the weather that’s actually forecast.
For example, I have a tendency to pack shorts and polos for winter trips–a mistake I’ve made as recently as last year, even despite having written our Winter Packing Tips for Disney. For early fall trips, I’ve been known to bring jeans and button-downs, even when the weather is still sweltering. Beyond that, I leave behind practical items I end up missing to avoid overpacking, while bringing pointless stuff “just in case” that I never use.
Unfortunately, I don’t have an elephant-caliber memory…or I try to convince myself that “it’ll be different this time” (for reasons unknown), only to have history repeat itself. In other words, I say this is a mistake I’ll never make again…but I almost certainly will. Fortunately, there’s now a UNIQLO at Disney Springs, and that store has bailed me out many times!
3. Food & Wine Festival on a Weekend – We want to start out by saying that we really enjoy Epcot’s Food & Wine Festival…but we don’t love it on weekends. Ever been to a UCF frat party? Well, if you answered “no”, it’s not too late!
Weekend evenings are prime time for college students with disposable incomes to descend upon the Festival to get sloshed. For them, it sure beats drinking Old Style in a dank basement (like we did in college), but that atmosphere plus the huge crowds can make this the least pleasant time to be at Food & Wine Festival.
Weekdays during the festival are far more enjoyable. It’s also far more enjoyable to attend Food & Wine in mid-November when the temperatures and humidity are more bearable, but we invariably attend in September because that’s usually when we visit for Halloween.
BONUS: Italy Booth – If not “required” for the sake of research, we’d never do the Italy booth at any festival ever again. The kiosk is notorious for high prices, elementary school cafeteria-inspired cuisine, and just a startling lack of ambition. If you enjoy paying $10 for a sample-sized version of microwaved TV dinners, Italy is a great option. If not, stay far away.
2. Rainforest Cafe – How this restaurant still has multiple locations around the United States, much less multiple locations in Walt Disney World, defies logic. The food is awful, and the ambiance reminds me of 1980s-relic ShowBiz Pizza Place, but “modernized” for the 1990s and devoid of character/charm.
The dark cloud that hangs over Rainforest Cafe almost extended to cast a shadow over T-Rex Cafe for me. Fortunately, I gave that a chance because dinosaurs, and was pleasantly surprised. If you are thinking, “but our kids love Rainforest Cafe!” consider taking them to T-Rex instead.
1. Leave Early – Nighttime is when the parks come alive with beautiful lighting and enchanting ambiance. It’s also when the weather starts to cool and lines start to die down. From a practical perspective, nights are now more advantageous than mornings, with lower wait times in the last couple of hours of the night than in the first couple hours after rope drop.
On top of that, one of my favorite “attractions” is strolling through World Showcase after Epcot’s fireworks end, just soaking up the ambiance, listening to the music, and seeing the stunning architecture. I’d rather do this for an hour than spend 8 daylight hours in the park. Same goes for wandering along the Rivers of America in Magic Kingdom or being bathed in the neon glow of Tomorrowland.
BONUS: Sleep In – We stress this so much on the blog that it’s probably becoming cliche. However, it’s good advice–especially if you’re staying on-site and are eligible for Early Entry. There’s no better way to beat the crowds at most parks. Basically, we would never not be tired at Walt Disney World again. Well, that’s not true–midday naps are a game-changer if you can manage them.
Beyond a couple of other restaurants that are blacklisted (for now) and attractions we avoid for personal reasons, but that’s about it. Hopefully you can learn from some of our mistakes…or find solace in knowing that we have made these same mistakes as you. Think of this as a support group for those who have been awoken by loud construction at off-hours or who have dropped $200 on a family “dinner” at Rainforest Cafe. Share your own “NEVER AGAIN!” items in the comments–venting can be therapeutic!

Would you do any of these things again? Hearing your feedback–even when you disagree with us–is both interesting to us and helpful to other readers, so please share your thoughts below in the comments!
We love Chef Mickey’s but the one thing we will never do again is Christmas Day. The crowds were insane. I agree with fast pass for stitch I have never seen a line, We also will not have a dinner reservation that runs over into a special event like the Halloween Party getting out wrist band was a very bad expereince
We love Chef Mickey’s but have only ever done breakfast. We have family employed by the mouse so we knew ahead of time not to do anything other than breakfast there. A hidden gem is Olivia’s at Old Key West but Boatwright’s at Port Orleans Riverside was just awful. Olivia’s was the same price, more laid-back, less busy, and had a much better menu. Boatwrights food was dry and very salty, and our service was sub-par.
Oh boy. We have reservations for Chef Mickey’s brunch for our upcoming trip. Should we cancel and go elsewhere? Also we are going to the Food and Wine Festival on a Sunday. Change those (meal) reservations too? Thanks for the help!
Chef Mickey’s brunch…will they be serving breakfast food still? If so, I think you’ll be fine. I’ve only ever done breakfast there and we love that. I’ve heard less than stellar reviews of other meals. Also, the Food and Wine Festival on a Sunday should be okay as well. Friday and Saturdays…not so much. Been there, done that and the author is correct. It’s pretty rough.
Thank you so much!
We absolutely love Chef Mickey’s for breakfast!
No it’s a buffet breakfast you will enjoy it
Great! Thanks!!
Do it. We had late breakfast that segwayed into brunch, and it was great. Family from age 5 to 60 loved it!
We loved brunch! Best of both meals and ice cream!
We did Chef Mickey’s for dinner this past New Year’s Day. Our kids were 3 and 1. They had just gotten a play kitchen from Santa for Christmas, so my son wore his apron and chef’s hat to dinner. He loved it! He can’t wait to go back! The food wasn’t spectacular and we would NEVER pay out of pocket to eat there – SO expensive! But if you’re on the dining plan and want to enjoy time with characters on a non-park day, this is a good option. We’re doing breakfast there in September – I’m excited to see people say that food is better!
I agree with Chef Mickeys! Awful!!!! We were at Epcot during New Years, the fireworks were amazing but we agreed never again during that time of year! The crowds were ridiculous!
My husband and I made reservations for dinner at Hollywood and vine and they told us we wouldn’t pay extra to stay and watch fireworks. We were so tired we decided to change the reservation to lunch and they told us we had to pay for the fireworks because we moved our reservation..even though we weren’t watching!! It was $98 for a buffet that was worse than the local Shoney’s! We will never eat there again.
Chef Mickey’s was good for breakfast. Good variety of food.
Will not do Be Our Guest in Magic Kingdom, small portions and not good food.
Surprisingly loved Monsters Inc laugh factory. Interactive live show, quite funny. No fast pass needed.
Agree with Dole Whip, not impressed.
I agree with everyone on Chef Mickey’s dinner. I was not impressed. I did used my meal credits, but I feel it is overpriced. The food wasn’t that great and the time with the characters was minimal. We did Minnie’s seasonal dine with Fantasmic seating and was much better!
Also, I don’t think I will add park hopper again. I rarely used it and felt like when I did use it, it was just to much.
I will never arrive early again. My boyfriend refused to go home halfway through the day to eat and rest and insisted on going to the openings, so by the time the parks did their fireworks we were both so grouchy and exhausted that we didn’t get to see any fireworks our whole stay. Next time we will go a little later or take a break and rest! It’s easy to forget you will be walking well over 20,000 steps every day. Also don’t try to change the fastpass on the My Disney Experience app unless you want to lose all of your reservations.
We were at EPCOT on New Year’s eve 15/16. Fortunately for us, we were safely ensconced at our time share by 7 PM. We watched the fireworks from 4 parks , on our balcony.
Love number 1. We unwittingly arrived at POFQ at the beginning of that week to find cheerleaders practicing in the hallways at 11pm much to the delight of the abundant number of their hyper testosterone charged football playing compatriots. We had traveled all day and were not amused! Or at least not as amused as our testosterone charged fellow guests. Sigh. It was a long week in a corner room that we would have killed for almost any other week. Now I LOVE football (go Pats) and I really like most kids, but oh my. Now we go the Sunday after Thanksgiving and leave the day the Pop Warner crew starts to arrive and enjoy the Christmas sights and sounds of Disney while our young friends are home still packing and dreaming of gridiron glory! Have a magical day!
How are the crowds? We were thinking of going that week after thanksgiving too and heard it’s super busy still from thanksgiving thanks!
Crowds are crazy! We went week between Christmas and New Years. Loved loved loved the decorations and the holiday atmosphere but all our children could see was the butts of other people! Too busy for young ones to enjoy. Don’t even think about trying to push a stroller or wheelchair! And you will get hit by both numerous times a day. We go every other year, Disney World is our happy place but not during busy holidays!
Before the kids got too old to take out of school for extended periods, we always went the week after Thanksgiving. Crowds are less because they all came for the holiday. Things start to pick up a couple weeks prior to Christmas. But I feel like the week after Thanksgiving is the sweet spot! Nothing compares to WDW at Christmas time!!!
PS- both my daughter made pop warner nationals in 2014 they are supposed to be in bed by 10!
Just this Easter, we did Easter brunch at Chef Mickeys. The food was terrible, and service wasn’t Disney standard although it was “ok.” Not to mention the kid licking all the croissants and putting them back At least goofy was fun.
We just went to Chef Mickey in Feb 16. I will say that we will definitely do it again. The food exceeded our expectations in taste and variety and was both kid and adult friendly. I ate at least $20 in Macaroons! The time with the characters are short, especially Mickey but my son loved it and we left very full.
Did you do breakfast?
I have experienced both # 10 and #4. Fourth of July in Magic Kingdom was quite possibly one of the worst experiences ever – especially when we got caught at the front of the Space Mountain queue when it broke down right before fireworks. Being a million degrees made it way, way worse. As for Epcot on NYE, that one I could possibly do again. The worst part was the long lines for attractions during the day (when paper FP still existed!).
I’m adding the value resorts to this list. I had no problem staying at one of those hotels to save money… before kids. Now, I momma needs a little more comfort from her hotel after a long day at the parks! 😉
This is all I can think of at the moment but I’m sure there’s more:
1. Dole Whip (eeeeuuwww)
2. Giant Turkey Leg (gag)
3. Mission Space
4. Country Bear Jamboree
5. Summit Plummit
Sadly, the Wishes dessert party at MK was a huge bust. This might have been due to the rain prior to the start time that caused the tables to be pushed back and some cast member confusion. The food there was mediocre and went back for seconds only to see all that was left was a bunch of picked over food with some wrapped trays in the back. Upon asking a CM if it was available she said we had to wait another 10 minutes before she could put that out. The view wasn’t great and we ended up abandoning our table. The boat dessert party is supposed to much better and easier to get. Completely agree with Summit Plummet, we rode it twice in a row only because I had never been on it and there was no wait. Absolutely destroyed my back and shoulders and my brother got slide-burn. The whole trying to pull your bathing suit back down into a suitable position while the life guard is yelling at you to get out is no fun either. Rain Forest Cafe does have horrible service and while we enjoyed the food at Chef Mickey’s, it’s best to go to an early breakfast (fewer crowds and the food is nicer than a later option). Another odd thing that’s become super popular in MK in the last year or so is the Peter Pan ride. I don’t know it’s because of the interactive queue or the Pan movie, but DO NOT ride it unless you or your child love the original movie. We rode it at 11:30 on the way out of the park once because by some miracle it was a 10 minute wait. I have no idea what the hype is about because it’s the exact same ride as it was 10+ years ago. The wait time is usually a minimum of 50 minutes during the day and is so not worth it. As far as going in the summer, as a life-long Florida resident and avid Disney-goer, I’m torn. The weather is absolute death between the heat, humidity, and storms. Be sure to check the weather religiously before going, but still prepare for cool evenings. My best advice for that is to go to the parks early at opening, leave to rest/swim at the resort from around 1-4 and then come back to the parks in the evening. Less crowds in the morning and at night usually. As far as storms, be prepared for sporadic rain that can easily escalate, but don’t be afraid to run around in the parks in the rain. Most people freak out and leave, and when it stops the wait times go way down. Also utilize less popular rides like the Tiki Room, Hall of Presidents, and the Carousel of Progress. If you’re in the water parks, wait at least 20-30 minutes if it starts to rain/thunder (unless it’s severe) because again, so many people will leave the park. This is so long but I feel like I had to get all of my experience out!
we did the dessert party in March of 2014 at tomorrowland terrace and it was amazing
Agree with Chef Mickey’s. We did breakfast on our way home so it served the purpose of feeding us before our 6 hour drive home and seeing some Disney characters one last time. However, the characters stayed for under a minute and only came around one time. Not worth the money when there are better character meal experiences out there.
One thing on my never again list would probably have to be Its a Small World. While I enjoyed the ride and I know it’s a classic, once was enough for me after being stuck on the boat and hearing the sound on repeat hahaha
I’m probably going to catch a lot of flack for this, but I won’t be doing MVMCP again, at least until I have children. I much prefer MNSSHP, and I really don’t understand the hype for the Christmas party. I think there are much better Holiday attractions around WDW (Candlelight Processional, the gone-but-not-forgotten Osbourne Lights, and the ginger bread house displays) that aren’t an additional charge.
Totally agree with #9, and ditto for Humunga Kowabunga
Space Mountain- It used to be my absolute favorite ride, but since the refurb, it is no longer enjoyable for me. Too jerky.
Going during the summer months is brutal. Even with my chilly pad and Frogg Toggs headwrap, the heat is intolerable. We would find ourselves going to the parks in the morning, heading back to the resort in the afternoon to rest and rehydrate, and head back out until park closing.
Man, I agree with so much of this list. Chef Mickey’s is so disappointing now. We went last summer for the last time. It will have to make major changes to get back to the way it used to be.
