Sitting down tonight doing a little Disney planning and can't help but remember the days when I would research the best way to attack the park, agonize over where we would eat, and be really anxious over my resort selection.

In some ways now it is easier - we know what resorts we like and which we don't. We have a few favorite restaurants and add in a new one each trip. Now it is more about fastpass fastpass fastpass. I feel like securing the right fastpass is as competitive as scoring breakfast at Cinderella's castle use to be.

While change is constant at Disney - what has changed for you and your family in regards to planning and what do you miss?

I also remember being on intercot daily. My day wasn't done until I had read all the threads. I need to be here more often.
