Forums Closed
As of January 1, 2019, we have closed our forums. This is a decision we did not come to lightly, but it is necessary. The software our forums run on is just too out-of-date and it poses a significant security risk. The server software itself must be updated, and it cannot be without removing the forums.

So it is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our long-running forums. They came online in 2000 and brought together so many wonderful Disney fans. We had friendships form, careers launch, couples marry, children born ... all because of this amazing community.

Thank you to each of you who were a part of this community. You made it possible.

And a very special thank you to our Guides (moderators), past and present, who kept our forums a happy place to be. You are the glue that held everything together, and we are forever grateful to you. Thank you aliceinwdw, Caldercup, MrsM, WillCAD, Fortissimo, GingerJ, HiddenMickey, CRCrazy, Eeyoresmom, disneyknut, disneydani, Cam22, chezp, WDWfan, Luvsun, KMB733, rescuesk, OhToodles!, Colexis Mom, lfredsbo, HiddenMickey, DrDolphin, DopeyGirl, duck addict, Disneybine, PixieMichele, Sandra Bostwick, Eeyore Tattoo, DyanKJ130, Suzy Q'Disney, LilMarcieMouse, AllisonG, Belle*, Chrissi, Brant, DawnDenise, Crystalloubear, Disneymom9092, FanOfMickey, Goofy4Goofy, GoofyMom, Home4us123, iamgrumpy, ilovedisney247, Jennifer2003, Jenny Pooh, KrisLuvsDisney, Ladyt, Laughaholic88, LauraBelle Hime, Lilianna, LizardCop, Loobyoxlip, lukeandbrooksmom, marisag, michnash, MickeyMAC, OffKilter_Lynn, PamelaK, Poor_Eeyore, ripkensnana, RobDVC, SHEANA1226, Shell of the South, snoozin, Statelady01, Tara O'Hara, tigger22, Tink and Co., Tinkerbelz, WDWJAMBA, wdwlovers, Wendyismyname, whoSEZ, WildforWD, and WvuGrrrl. You made the magic.

We want to personally thank Sara Varney, who coordinated our community for many years (among so many other things she did for us), and Cheryl Pendry, our Message Board Manager who helped train our Guides, and Ginger Jabour, who helped us with the PassPorter-specific forums and Live! Guides. Thank you for your time, energy, and enthusiasm​. You made it all happen.

There are other changes as well.

Why? Well, the world has changed. And change with it, we must. The lyrics to "We Go On" for IllumiNations say it best:

We go on to the joy and through the tears
We go on to discover new frontiers
Moving on with the current of the years.
We go on
Moving forward now as one
Moving on with a spirit born to run
Ever on with each rising sun.
To a new day, we go on.

It's time to move on and move forward.

PassPorter is a small business, and for many years it supported our family. But the world changed, print books took a backseat to the Internet, and for a long time now it has been unable to make ends meet. We've had to find new ways to support our family, which means new careers and less and less time available to devote to our first baby, PassPorter.

But eventually, we must move on and move forward. It is the right thing to do.

So we are retiring this newsletter, as we simply cannot keep up with it. Many thanks to Mouse Fan Travel who supported it all these years, to All Ears and MousePlanet who helped us with news, to our many article contributors, and -- most importantly -- to Sara Varney who edited our newsletter so wonderfully for years and years.

And we are no longer charging for the Live Guides. If you have a subscription, it's yours to keep for the lifetime of the Live Guides at no additional cost. The Live Guides will stay online, barring server issues and technical problems, for all of 2019.

That said, PassPorter is not going away. Most of the resources will remain online for as long as we can support them, and after that we will find ways to make whatever we can available. PassPorter means a great deal to us, and to many of you, and we will do our best to keep it alive in whatever way we can. Our server costs are high, and they'll need to come out of our pockets, so in the future you can expect some changes so we can bring those costs down.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for your amazing support over the years. Without you, there's no way us little guys could have made something like this happen and given the "big guys" a run for their money. PassPorter was consistently the #3 guidebook after the Unofficial and Official guides, which was really unheard of for such a small company to do. We ROCKED it thanks to you and your support and love!

If you miss us, you can still find some of us online. Sara started a new blog at DisneyParkPrincess.com -- I strongly urge you to visit and get on her mailing list. She IS the Disney park princess and knows Disney backward and forward. And I am blogging as well at JenniferMaker.com, which is a little craft blog I started a couple of years ago to make ends meet. You can see and hear me in my craft show at https://www.youtube.com/c/jennifermaker . Many PassPorter readers and fans are on Facebook, in groups they formed like the PassPorter Trip Reports and PassPorter Crafting Challenge (if you join, just let them know you read about it in the newsletter). And some of our most devoted community members started a forum of their own at Pixie Dust Lane and all are invited over.

So we encourage you to stay in touch with us and your fellow community members wherever works best for you!

Best wishes for a wonderful and magical new year!

Unhappy How about snacks in WDW, anything you are NOT interested in trying?

This is something I am always thinking about because I always pick the same and never try "new" ones.

However some snack items I just can't try and one being the Dole whip! I love pineapple but I don't think that a Dole whip would be good, cooling snack to eat. My trip in May of 2015 I walked right into Adventure land and stopped and said, nope just not into that..meaning the Dole whip. Instead I got a cherry coke slushie in Liberty Square.

I don't like coconut so the the school bread isn't for me. I have had a funnel cake but with all that fruit it is so unappealing! I think I am a snack snob....I like my French ice cream, cotton candy and kaki gori....

Does anyone else feel the same as I do...but with other snacks too?

The funnel cake, definitely. We can get them within an hour of home, so they don't appeal to me at WDW. Plus, they are very heavy/greasy on their own, let alone the fruity topping.

Dole Whip...although technically I tried it, but I couldn't make it past two bites...ick

Mickey bars. YUCK! Nothing but a regular old chocolate dipped vanilla ice cream bar and neither very good at that.

I'll third the negatives on pineapple Dole whips. I love pineapple, but those things taste like some inferior chemist's idea of pineapple--nasty!

Those huge pretzels. They just look dry and bland to me. Plus I don't want to waste stomach space on something that filling.

Turkey legs. I did try it once but that was more than enough. I won't ever get one again and wonder how anyone can eat them.

Dole Whip - not a pineapple fan

Citrus Swirl (similar to Dole Whip) - I thought this was an orange sherbert/vanilla ice cream treat. Turns out it's made with frozen orange juice which I can't have. I found that out only after buying one and trying it. Lenny and Abby finished it but it's not something we've ever gotten again.

Not interested in turkey legs or pork shanks.

I guess everyone's tastes are different.

Mickey bars, turkey legs, cotton candy & slushies/slurpees hold no appeal for me.

Turkey legs (and anything that is meat)

Anything with refined sugar as I am diabetic.

Anything fried.

My idea of a good snack is fresh fruit, which I bring with me. I honestly don't understand how pwople can eat so much junk at WDW. My stomach couldn't take it.

No turkey legs for my family, but Dole Whip floats (with pineapple juice) are a big YES! Total refreshment when the heat gets you down.

School bread doesn't appeal to me. I also don't care for churros. I do enjoy funnel cakes occasionally but I never get the fruit-laden ones.
