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 The software our forums run on is just too out-of-date and it poses a significant security risk.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!

Feature Article: Fulton's Crab House - Walt Disney World Dining Review
Fulton's Crab House - Walt Disney World Dining Review
by Cheryl Pendry
Dining at Walt Disney World is always a treat, with plenty of choices; far too many for any one vacation, no matter how long it is!
I don’t know about you, but we always have a huge list of places we want to try, along with restaurants we want to go back to again, every time we visit. Narrowing that list down is pretty tough, and sadly, some restaurants get put to the back of the pile time and time again. The last time we dined at Fulton's Crab House was, unbelievably, on our May 2004 trip. Seven years later, and with six trips under our belts in the meantime, it really was time to make a return trip there. Having carefully surveyed both the dinner menu, and our budget, I really couldn’t bring myself to head there for an evening meal. Entree prices start at around the $20 mark. Even under the “classics” section of the menu, seafood and fish specialities can top $35-$40, but the real sticker shock comes on the next page. That’s home to their lobster and crab specialties, where you’ll find all varieties of crab, including Alaskan king crab claws that will set you back almost $60. While Fulton's does not participate in the Disney Dining Plan, the menu prices are on a par with Disney's Signature Dining establishments.
I turned to the lunch menu, to see if it better met our budget, and it did! The appetizers aren’t too radically different from dinnertime, either in terms of price or what’s on offer. It’s when you get to the entree part of the menu that you can really see the difference! The most expensive entree at lunchtime is under $20, while later in the day the prices start from around that mark.
The lunchtime menu offers lighter choices, with those starters familiar from the dinner menu, soups, entree salads, a short list of lunch-appropriate specialities, and a range of sandwiches. Whether you come here hungry, or fancy more of a light bite, you’ll find something to suit your mood. While we were still studying the menu, trying to decide what to get, the bread service arrived. This really was a dream! While the crackers were nothing special, the crab boursin that went with them most certainly was. It was deliciously light and was obviously popular with diners, as we asked if they had the recipe and were brought pre-printed cards with all the details. As befits the name of this establishment, we went for more crab for our appetizer, choosing to share the Fulton’s crab salad. It only comes in an entree portion, but split between the two of us, it was a perfect size. Interestingly, in a very different move to what we’ve experienced in the past at the Hollywood Brown Derby, our server didn’t mix it for us, but rather left us to do the honours ourselves.
Other options to start your meal include blue crab cakes, Key West conch fritters, fresh oysters, and the seafood tower for two people, which did sound amazing, if only we’d had the appetite for it!
When it comes to your main course, not everything on the menu is fish-related, which was good news for my meat-loving husband! He went for the baby back ribs, which he enjoyed, although they were apparently a bit spicy, something the menu neglected to mention. Other meat options include a sirloin burger, classic Caesar salad with chicken, or grilled chicken ciabatta.
The bulk of the entree menu is dedicated to sandwiches, and I sampled the blue crab club sandwich. If you’re sensing a theme here, you’d be right, and there was an ulterior motive to this choice, as it came with that beautiful crab boursin! I really couldn’t fault the portion size, as the thing was huge, and was excellent value for money, which was a really pleasant surprise. If sandwiches aren’t to your taste, then the fried seafood combination, fresh fish selection, fish and chips, fish tacos, or the chilled seafood trio may be more to your liking.
As for desserts, by the time we got that far, we were far too full to even contemplate trying any, which says something for the portion sizes here.
So what was the ambience like? Well, it’s certainly one of the most beautiful settings anywhere on Disney property. The second you climb aboard, you find yourself on a lovely old riverboat, complete with dark wood panelling everywhere you look, which gives it a very exclusive feel.The dining area is bright and airy, although the dark wood feel continues, with boards decorated with three-dimensional replicas of the many fish that may be served up for you. That may be an issue for some people, but I was fascinated by them. Although I know a great deal about fish, I was still able to find many names that I’d never come across before.
Wherever you sit here, you’re going to have a good view, either of Downtown Disney or the lake outside. We were seated by a window looking across to the Rainforest Cafe and Cap’n Jack’s Marina, so we were able to enjoy the sight of boats crossing to and fro outside.
The whole restaurant has a wonderfully exclusive feel to it, but certainly at lunchtime, it at least doesn’t have the prices to match. If you want something that’s perhaps a bit of a cut above the rest, Fulton’s Crab House is a great choice. We also found our lunch to be superb value, much better than we remembered from our previous visit seven years earlier. Based on our latest experience, I’m guessing we won’t wait another seven years before returning here.
