People watching in Epcot with a beer is awesome.
We used to catch a Beetles cover band at that little side theater by the Crown and they were great.
I wanna go for Food and Wine Fest. Heard its on another level.

Had a cousin go 5 years ago and he has yet to miss one since. 
He absolutely loves it.
Next trip I make will be during this time for sure.

Just avoid Epcot on the Weekend.. To say it gets packed is a gross understatement

We always save England for the last leg and get wrecked in the Rose and Crown.
A few years ago on a flight to DW I sat next to this lady and her daughter. Her husband was up a couple of rows sitting next to their son. We chatted a bit on the flight... no big deal.
A few days later I walk into the Rose and Crown with my people and some drunk lady comes up to me and yells "HI!!". I was thinking "I know this lady from somewhere..." then I realized it was the lady from my flight.
Her and her husband were lit and proceeded to buy me shots and beer. By the time I left that place I had a nice buzz and I bet they spent $60 on my booze.

So awesome. I got drunk, I ate snails. It really is the happiest place on Earth.
Imagine drinking your way through the world at Epcot... while eating ridiculous amounts of food.

During the week in late October was perfect. Literally no line for 80% of the rides and usually free meal plan which can be used towards the food for Food and Wine festival.

I was pretty awesome. My wife had drove in with her mom ahead of me so she wasn't on the flight. I'm talking to these random people who start buying me shots and she's like "who are those people?"
I said "oh that's the lady I sat next to on my flight"
She says "why are they buying you liquor?"
I said "I don't really know... and I don't care!"

We went over Mardi Gras, on the day we went to Epcot it started raining right as we got to Germany. We all had ponchos and a killer buzz so we didn't care. Ended up stopping at an empty kiosk with a couple pop up umbrellas to get out of the rain a little, turns out it was a beer kiosk, when it started raining they removed the tap handles but the taps still worked. Enjoyed a few free beers before eventually moving on. When we were there we had alot of issues with rides breaking down while in line. Splash Mountain, Pirates of the Carribean, The Great Movie Ride, Cali River Rapids, Expedition Everest(broke both days we went), and two of the shows were delayed due to technical difficulties.

I'm taking the wife and 2 kids in 4 weeks.
Staying at Art of Animation for 6 nights, Cars Suite.
Kids are 3.5 and 1.5 so little one is free for everything.
Between me and the wife, and the 3.5 year old, it ended up being around $4k for everything, and we are flying from N.O. It'll be $5-6k after the trip i'm sure.
I wanted to wait to go another 2 years, wife is impatient and I gave in. I can see an hour or two of every day where both kids turn into little shits b/c they are tired. Hopefully they take little power naps in the stroller while waiting for some of the rides.
If figured we'd stay at in the Cars suite this time b/c i'm sure my oldest will flip out when he sees that.
I plan on going back to Orlando many times, and don't ever plan on staying at Disney. Could have stayed at the Hilton Grand Vacation, in a suite, with a full kitchen, a mile down the road and for half the price i'm paying now.
I'd also rather drive, but it makes no sense to drive if we have to spend a night getting there and back b/c my kids can't stay in a car for 10 hours.

How is Star wars at Hollywood studios.
Awesome. I would say don't get a fast pass because the wait never went over 20 mins.
My son and I rode it 3 times.
They have 6 or so stations that can fit 40 people per station so they can move a lot of people at a time.
I loved it and I'm not even that big into star wars

Port Orleans - French Quarter: small, quiet, not very crowded, great pool and water slide for the kiddos, good live music, good food. Also has ferry service to Downtown Disney. Far and away the best thing though is the buses are rarely crowded.
Great Resort. And I like that it is much easier to get to other parks from there. You don't have 40 stops like some other resorts... plus the boat to downtown is nice
