Has anyone received any discounts for October yet? I am hoping that Disney Visa card holders will receive the discount that we got last year.... it helped pay for the dining plan. :thumbsup2

Hi everybody! After lurking around the site for a few months, I've finally decided to join in on the fun. It's a little tricky (I'm still not sure how to copy photos, do a proper trip report, insert photos, etc) but I'm sure I'll get the hang of things. I've been on smaller, more intimate Disney world forums previously, so I am a little nervous!! But I'm very happy to be here!!

[MNWDWMANIAC]

So far I'm loving it! :love: I'm not sure how to include pictures and other things I see.:confused3 Hopefully I can learn and be able to share. :goodvibes This is a brand new experience for me. Maybe I too can make magic happen. :wizard: You all share sure great things. I'm looking forward to seeing what you all have to offer and hoping to do the same.:yay:
Thank you all...:worship:

Hi everyone wow this site has grown it will take me a long time to get around!
love Juliex

[island cricket]

Aloha from the rock in the middle of the Pacific! WoW is all i can say! What a great place to meet incredible people! I found this site and am thrilled as it's helped with a lot of planning.

I visited WDW back in 94 when I was married with no kids (dink) and it truly was one of the most magical trips. I will be visiting again in Oct with 2 kids plus a boyfriend (that sounds so weird at 45) and his 2 kids. For everyone else, it'll be a first time. What excites me most is the kids, ages 10-13, have no idea we are going. We are keeping it a surprise and until they figure it out on their own. They think we are going to California to visit family, although, I've never said where, I've just said we're going to visit family and of course, Mickey and the gang are considered family. Because they are savvy in travel, the 2 older ones will probably figure it out when we are at the airport. Since we're connecting in Atlanta, I'm hoping it will only say ATL and not Orlando, therefore, they'll be confused as to why we would be going to ATL. If it doesn't click with them before that, they will definitely know by the time we board our connecting to WDW. OH MY, the expressions and excitement when that hits them will be one of my highlights of the whole trip.

So I thank each and everyone of you who have contributed anything to this board. Reading some posts has made me laugh, salivate (from the food) and even choke with tears. I have gathered a lot of information that will make this trip very successful. I cannot wait to post some of our experiences from our trip. Mahalo again! Evalani:hippie:

[SoScary'09]

Like yeah dude....

My wife and I have been to WDW and on DCL cruises over the last several years. I got talked into doing WDW over Xmas this year with friends we have cruised with. I have read many reports from people who have done Xmas, and the new year, at WDW. Many pros and cons as to going at this time. How was your experience?

[Boog's Mommy]

Hi! I'm new to the DIS Boards site. I wasn't quite sure how I start to post comments to the different threads, so I am experiencing with my first post now. My husband and I honeymooned in Disney World in 1999 and we have been going back every year since then. We now have a 1 year old son, Avery Elvis, which we have already taken to Disney when he was just 8 months old. I know it sounds crazy, but he had a really good time. I could tell because of all the smiles I got out of him. Anyway, we actually have done a ton of research on Disney and feel that we are pretty knowledgable on the subject. So hopefully I can help out people with answers to their questions, and they can enlighten me to some stuff I don't know. Looking forward to meeting new people.

[onescgirl]

hi everyone!
I'm going on my 1st Disney trip in Sept '08.:woohoo:
I've been waiting 38 years for this trip & I'm really obsessed with it.
I'm not getting anything done around the house because I'm "researching" on the net:surfweb:

I LOVE this site!!! It has helped me so much!
But, the problem I'm having with the site is that I see something on the forum & then later I can't re-find it.
I found where someone made some cute autograph books and now I can't find where I saw it. I've done the 'search', but still cannot find it.
I have requested 'Mickey' design from someone, but now I'm not sure if I can refind that thread either.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to look at the threads because there are soooo many.


Thanks so much!

[Dismom55]

My wife and I have been to WDW and on DCL cruises over the last several years. I got talked into doing WDW over Xmas this year with friends we have cruised with. I have read many reports from people who have done Xmas, and the new year, at WDW. Many pros and cons as to going at this time. How was your experience?
Chris

We had a blast, instead of sleeping in late, we got up and got to the parks just after opening, the crowds were low, the weather pleasant. It was great. After eating dinner, usually we left and went back to the resort. By that time things were really crowded, did not see much of the parades and fireworks, but the lines were short for the attractions during most of the day by getting there early. We could have stayed later and put up with the crowds, but I have a very bad back and by dinner time, I was exhausted and needed to head back to the resort for some relaxation.

Have a good time! Oh yes, of course the major rides filled up fast, but because of my back can't do the wilder ones, but kids got there, did the ride and then got a fast pass on the way out, so most rides they did more than once.

Hello everyone I am new to this site but not new to the idea. Now to throw in the awww factor i am the daughter of Dismom55 so when all my friends are tired of my obsession to all things Disney i can go talk to me mom cause she will never tell me to shut up about Disney

[diskris]

Hi everyone!!! I'm Kristin. I am a big Disney fan and I think I drive everyone around me nuts because I love it so much. I just went to WDW at the end of July with my boyfriend's family and my mom was so jealous she booked a trip for the end of August and we already had one planned for November. So I am really working out my AP this year!

Our stay in August will be our first stay at a Deluxe resort and it will be at the Poly! Hopefully I won't cry out of happiness!

[followthatmouse]

Hello, all at Disboards. I have been very fortunate to belong to a family who loved to travel. My first trip to WDW was as a very young girl in 1978. We have returned every three or four years. I was thrilled to find a message board with like-minded Disney lovers. I hope that I am able to contribute to the community here.

You said to ask questions, so here goes. I've been to Disney a gazillion times, and it's my favorite place on earth. I was interested in trying to buy points for a stay, and I'm not sure how to go about it. Can you give me some pointers, or direct me to the right place for pointers. Thanks, and very glad to be here.

[YIPP-E]

Hi everyone. I feel so at home here, I can't believe there are so many other disboard addicts like me. I have been lurking for some time now and I've been waiting till we actually booked our trip to post. It's been a roller coaster of planning this trip, but it's done and we will be on our way the end of September.

I to am not getting my any work done, because I fequent this board so much :surfweb: I am looking forward to posting my PTR and then finally my TR when we return. I love reading the stories and seeing the pictures. Speaking of pictures, what are the rules on posting pics. I tried to do a PTR with pics and it said I have to have 10 post. Does that mean 10 different posts or 10 posts in one tread? LOL, can you tell I'm a newbie!

Thanks for all the great tips, I'm a planner, researcher and list maker out of control!!!

Hi

Just found your forum surfing for some new Disney information.

I'm Arlene from Las Vegas, NV. and I was a Cast Member at WDW when I lived in Florida (Disney's All Star Music and Port Orleans - Riverside, although it was called Dixie Landings when I worked there).

I haven't been to WDW since I left Florida in 2000, but my husband and I are planning two upcoming trips, Dec. 2008 and Feb. 2009.

Just thought I'd pop by and say hello!

Have been reading the boards for ages but never actually registered until now.

I fly all over the world for work and if there's a Disney park where I'm going, I'll usually be found there.

Have been to all the Disney parks now except for Epcot and California Adventure.

Even though I've been to Orlando many times, I've only actually been to Disney there once whereas I've been to Hong Kong and Tokyo Disneys many, many times.

So if anyone needs any Hong Kong or Tokyo information...

[KARN4U]

Hi everybody! I'm newly registered to the boards but did read them before registering and found tons of excellent information.

Hi Paula and welcome to the DIS!! You will love this place. It is my home away from home!!

Character Dining is one of the best ways to see and meet the characters without having to stand in a long line in the hot weather or miss out due to rain. We love Character Dining.

Depending on who are your favorites and if you have any children, I would suggest going to Chef Mickey's first. You can do breakfast or dinner there. I am not sure about lunch. It is at the Contemporary Resort and is a wonderful place to dine and interact with Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Donal. They dress in chef's gear and will spend a few moments at your table. The food is pretty good to and it is a buffet.

Our other favorite is the Crystal Palace in the Magic Kingdom and it to is a buffet. You get to meet Winnie the Pooh and his gang and you don't have to leave the park.

My other personal favorite is O'hanas for breakfast at the Poly Resort. You get a family style breakfast ( not sure on dinner as we have just done breakfast) and you meet Lilo, Stich, Mickey and Pluto! They have fun stuff for the kids to do during your meal.

Of course for princess interaction there is Cinderella's Castle which is a wonderful treat. At breakfast you meet several other princesses to and at dinner you will meet the Fairy GOdmother. You can also do a meal at the Akershus Princess Storybook meal in the Norway Pavillion at Epcot. You get to meet five princess and they do change a bit. Last time we were there was Belle, Jasmine, Pocohontas, Cinderella and Ariel. It was a lovely time.

There are many other options to, but these are my favorites. Oh, the dinner at 1900 Park Faire is wonderful. This is at the Grand Floridian resort and is with Cinderella, Prince Charming and the Stepmother and Step Sisters! It is a riot to see them and your kids can dance with Cinderella and the Prince!

Have fun planning!

Suz

First thing you need to do is check your email for one sent from the site to confirm your registration. You aren't fully registered yet. Check your spam or junk folder. If you can't find it there is a thread for those not fully registered. Follow the directions in the first post and if that doesn't work. post on that thread and let me know.

Then read the FAQ's on this board. Read the board guidelines. Then just get yourself your beverage of choice :surfweb: , a comfy chair, and sit back, relax and start reading! We have lots of boards with a huge variety of topics and lots to read. And start posting. (you have to complete your registration to post off of this board) Answer questions, ask questions by starting a new thread and jump in and enjoy! :)

Hi, not really new here but I have a question and cannot find the thread or topic. I read where Dis'ers where a lime green Mickey at WDW and this indentifies you to other Dis'ers.
So what ,where and how do you make, acquire or buy a lime green Mickey item.
Thanks for the hints ahead of time.
We are going in Dec and wanted to wear my Lime.

[Hazzard101]

I just went on my first trip to Disney World and I was really reluctant. Everyone was excited and I was like "ok, whatever". After spending nine wonderful days at Disney with my wonderful wife and four great friends. I have become an addict. Here I am giving into the dark side. accepting the force of the Disney Magic. Well, I better get on to checking out the rest of this site before I have to kick my own but for going on and on about Disney like all the others I know. Now if someone will point me in the direction of the coffee and donuts I will sit down and listen to everyone else. Thanks for listening

HELLO TO ALL MY MAGIC FRIENDS, I AM SO GLAD TO BE A PART OF THIS WONDERFUL ORGANIZATION I HOPE I CAN BE SUCCESSFUL IN BOOKING AND PLANNING MY NEXT TRIP (JULY 2009) AT THE BEACH CLUB VILLAS. THANKS TO ALL AGAIN, THE MARKO FAMILY FROM FOLSOM,PA. :grouphug:

[Goofy Guy]

Hello everyone, Please allow me to introduce myself. I'm the new guy. :)

After discovering this website as part of my intensive research, I had to give in and register as part of the community. That's not something I do lightly. Because of all the wonderful people here, and with all the information I gathered, I felt it only fair to try to contribute in any way possible. If nothing else, I'll be surrounded by a bunch of happy, pixie-dust infused people always seem ready to help.

My wife and I will be heading out to WDW for a week starting November 7, 2008. Although we had lived in LA and have been to disneyland many, many times, this will be our first trip to WDW. I can't believe how excited we are! I hope I can share our experiences and offer advice for others upon our return.

I also wanted to throw out a special "Hello":banana: to veteran member, justplaingoofy for their assistance in my research and for just being especially kind.

Cheers,
Michael

You've confused two concepts: the hotels and "renting points". Renting points is only for the Disney Vacation Club resorts, most of which are of the "deluxe" variety - villas, studios, etc. For All Star Movies, you just book and pay for it like a regular hotel - no points, just $ :rotfl2:

You can book either through a travel agent, like Small World or AAA, or you can book directly with Disney on-line or over the phone.

Have fun!

Hello! I am planning a trip to Disneyworld, so I have been visiting this site to get information. I remember getting some good info. here a few years ago, so I figured I would try again.

Hello everyone, I joined here in January but never posted till now. Just did alot of reading.
Hi Burda
Is rather simple but what sight are you getting you ticker from? You should just be able to copy the code, then go into your userCP and click on edit signature and past it in. Just make sure you use the right code for this forum.

Hello, New here also. Love the info here especially the post about the monthly deals waiting to come out.

[Onezumi]

Yay! This is my first post, so I have no idea what is going on yet. I figured I would just say Hi! :D

I just went to WDW and Universal HHN this past October and I am planning my trip again for next year already! It was my first time going and WOW was it the most fun experience of my life. I took a lot of pictues and videos.

I admit I was depressed when coming back to "real life". :D

Nice to meet you all!

EDIT: Does anyone know why I can't post in other areas of the forum? It says I can't post links until I have 10 posts, but I am not posting any links. :(

[MinnieTexan]

Hi everyone!

I'm new to posting on the DIS, and think this is a fantastic site! Love it, and everything to do with Disney! :thumbsup2
I just created a signature line, and am hoping it works in this post. Fingers and toes are crossed. I love all of the smilies, and hope I learn how to post pictures before leaving on our WDW trip Thursday, 11/13/08. I'm kind of apprehensive, because it seems complicated. :confused:
Counting down to Thursday!!!! :woohoo:

[MinnieTexan]

I'm so excited...my signature line worked!! Now to figure out how to post those photos...however, I believe I need 10 posts before I can post any pictures to DIS? :sad2:

[MinnieTexan]

Good luck with your posts. Sending Pixie Dust your way...pixiedust: I'm really looking forward to seeing your pictures.

[SkittleDooWinniPoo]

Hey gang, I am just getting started here and trying to figure out how things work. I am dismayed by the number of discussion boards out there, where all people seem to do is complain. If you claim to love Disney so much, why all the constant complaints? Just enjoy it for what it is....magic!

Anyway, I will find my way to the Trip Report board, and begin posting!!

This thread is just for general welcomes. You will need to start a new thread. I suggest you post it on our Codes and Rates Forum found in our Disney Resorts Forum. Or you can start it here on the Welcome Board and I can move it for you.

The best way to get the answer to your question though is just to call Disney and have them price the trip for you using the different specials available or you can do it yourself on their website. If that is overwhelming to you then you might consider finding a Disney qualified Travel Agent to help you out.

First of all, you haven't completed your registration yet. Make sure you got an email from us and that you click on the link to confirm or you won't be able to fully participate in our boards. If you have a problem we have a thread you can read and post on to help you out.

As for Chat, I actually have no idea how all that works (I am an old foogy!), but I don't think that can do friend requests and messaging through our Chat system. The Chat room is only open during certain times, when a moderated Chat is scheduled. But since I am not sure I would suggest you ask on our Tech Support Board at the bottom of the main page. But you will have to complete your registration before you can post there.

You have to confirm your registration first. Right now all you can do is post on this board, and read only on all the other boards. Until you are "Earning Your Ears" by confirming your registration you can't do much else.

After posting on a thread I can never find the thread again. How do I view my posts?

I am thinking it is probably so obvious, but I just can't see it.:badpc:

Wow what a new world! This is very cool! I think i'm hooked already!
Planning a vacation for my family was never this fun in the past! Or addictive!

You need to subscribe to the threads you post on. You can do that manually with each post, or you can set your User CP so you are automatically subscribed (I suggest this). Take a look at our FAQ thread and there are instructions there.


For your past posts that you aren't subscribed to, right click on your username in your above post. Then select the option to find all posts. Anything posted within the last few days won't show up yet but you shoud find everything else.

You can go to your account and accept emails, you can fing your thread there or do a search for the kind of thread that you posted on, and search it that way as well. Just remember to look at what number you are on the thread and that will definitely help you......Welcome to DIS Boards..

[alice99]

Thanks for all the advice all. It took me awhile to find this..:rolleyes2 ... but now I have changed my CP to automatically subscribe to anything I post.

I have a list I got from another site that helps you plan a trip to WDW. I'll be happy to email it to you. I also recommend that you hit your local library for books on planning Disney Vacations. Books such as Disney on a Dime can really help out. Check websites like Mousesavers.com often for special offers.

Check out our home page of wdwinfo.com or here is the link to the discounts page : http://www.wdwinfo.com/discounts.html Our Codes and Rates forum is also a good resource: http://www.disboards.com/forumdisplay.php?f=93

Disney can be very confusing. Sometimes it is also best to just contact a travel agent that specializes in Disney and let them help you out. They can help you get the best discount at no extra cost to you.
