Hey guys! I am new here:)

[Krousfive]

Hi there! This is my second post. I have "lurked" since 2005 and have had two trips since then. I feel like some of the people who are regularly on here are like family. Now my daughter is bugging me to write a trip report from our last trip - guess it could be a group project!

[EggSalad]

Hi everyone Im new here.
You can call me Egg. :banana: pirate:

[DisneyFanKat]

I tried joining today - only to discover that my username and email address (and thankfully the same password) were already set up in Aug 2007 - I must have just browsed the boards before my first (and only - so far) trip to WDW toward the end of that month!

But I'm "officially" on here now to check things out! :)

[Debagu]

This is my 1st post. Just checking to see if it works.

[Had2disneycruz]

New here too. Wish I had started doing before our first trip in 2001.:tinker:

[JenJenFer]

This is my first post here. I am very excited see all the great posts here.:)

[PAPER CHASER]

I HAVE A ? ABOUT EMH. WE WERE THERE 1ST OF OCT. 08 WHEN THEY JUST DISCONTINUED WRISTBAND DISTRIBUTION. WE WERE NEVER ASKED (NOT EVEN ONCE) TO SHOW ANY PROOF (KTTWC) ETC. THAT WE WERE STAYING ON DISNEY PROPERTY. WE ARE GOING BACK IN MARCH AND I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW HOW THEY ARE ENFORCING THIS SYSTEM??? EMH WERE SO CROWDED IN OCT. I AM SURE THAT ANYONE AND EVERYONE WERE RIDING THE RIDES DUE TO NO EFFECTIVE SYSTEM IN PLACE!!! WHATS GOING ON WITH THE EMH??? :confused: THANK YOU!

[lovetoscrap]

Paper Chaser: You should post your question on the Theme Parks Attractions and Stratagies Board. You will probably not get any answers here, it is just a general Welcome and introductions thread. And all caps can be hard to read, you might try typing without the caps lock on. :)

Hi! We're new here! :banana:

We're two friends (names are August and Jinx) who have been wanting to go to disney forever! August has been 3948754 times because she used to live in Florida. I've been just once, two years ago. BUT WE'RE BOTH FANATICS!

We're going next year right after we graduate high school. :banana: (<<Those bananas are a hoot!) We know it's pretty early to start planning, but we're just so excited! :woohoo:

We hope to get lots of info from these boards. Yay! :banana:

Here is a link to the DIS guidelines: http://www.wdwinfo.com/guidelines.htm . Pay particular attention to the bottom regarding infractions. Having a thread locked and is generally not a big deal, especially if you didn't get an infraction. You can always PM the moderator that closed your thread if you want more clarification or any moderator to ask questions. :)

[SunshineGoober]

Hi, Everyone. I've been lurking here for months, but finally figured I would join the craziness. Can't wait to start chatting with fellow Disney fans. :cool1:

[cjfaldalen]

I'm new here too. After being part of the Disney Screening Room for two sessions, during which I took my first trip to DL, and then helping my extended family plan their first trip to Disneyland in 08, I feel like I've become a bit of a fanatic, so I decided to find a place where my constant Disney chatter would be welcome! My next trip to DL is in May, it will be my third trip in two years! Ridiculous? Yes. Exciting and fun beyond belief? Oh yeah....... :rotfl: I can't help it!

[lorak]

Sorry for my ignorance, but what's a "bounce back", Gang? I'm new to the board and am trying to understand some of the lingo! :idea:

-L.Krebs

Bounce back means an offer that Disney makes you while you are staying on property, to come back at a later date. For instance Free Dining is often first offered to Resort Guests with a card in their room. It has to be booked before you check out of the resort.

[Eeee-va]

Brand new here! I spent hours reading the site before my trip to WDW in June 2008...now I'm going to DL in June 2009.

Anyway, I'm just saying "hi." pirate:

[perriwinkleblue]

Welcome Eeee-va!!!! Cute name idea! :goodvibes

[CanadianDISfan]

I'm brand new and have no idea how to blog, chat, post or IM so needless to say, I am not tech savvy! Could someone please direct me as to how to join a thread about resort questions. We're going to the World in 3 week. (YAHOO!) Thank you! :rolleyes1 Gabriella

Hi, new here after lurking for quite a while. We are going to WDW in 46 days!!!!:banana: :banana:

[suejai]

Hello!
I found this website while I was planning our first trip to WDW in May 2008. The tips I gleaned from just lurking were invaluable. I have to admit that I thought everyone was crazy for going back year after year:confused: That was, of course, BEFORE we went. Half way through the trip I was already wanting to go back. So we are, and all my friends think we are crazy:laughing:

61 days and counting!

[epcotwino]

My family and I love WDW and your site will just enhance our time there! O2BNWDW...You are the greatest! This Epcotwino, she owes you big!

[Nunofb]

Hi all! Disney Rocks :D

[brrwright]

Hello Everyone.

New here as well. We are headed to DW the first week in June. Two teenagers and a three-year-old. I'll definitely need some tips to keep everyone happy. Can't wait to see what all I will find here.

[bev77]

DH & I are big Disney fans, got engaged at Disney, now married 20 years. We will be at SS for Memorial Day weekend, and then in Aug., we are taking kids & grandkids, (15 of us) staying at OKW. Any advice on taking this large a group would be appreciated. Thanks

[luvMickey72]

Hi Just chekcing everything out! :banana:

[j-ariel]

I love your countdown...I fly on jetblue most of the time to get there and definately take the magical express to your hotel its free and easy, if you are staying on the property.. If its your airline you are asking about i would avoid Delta they change your flights on you frequently. I know you will have a great time. I am a frequent flyer to Disney and Love it Love it Love it..And Congratulations...

[BigT4187]

Hey all. New here. Glad to find you guys!!

[mmtdaugherty]

What do people mean when they state that they cannot post an electronic email because they do not have enough posts?

[bolady]

Just checking things out, seeing if my countdown works

[luvMickey72]

Hi All - Cannot get my ticker to work, cut and paste it, any ideas??
Thanks

[ajax897]

Hi New here. We are going to DW in October with my 3 little girls - ages 9,8, and 5 as well as my in-laws from New Zealand. I am excited to see what the girls think when they get there. We haven't told the oldest and youngest and won't until closer to that time. My oldest is slightly mentally retarded and has a mental age of about 4 so I would be hounded every day until then if it was next week?
:cheer2:

[cheryliebird]

:cool1: I'm sick of the snow and I need a good vacation. I am NOT a seasoned traveler and the thought of planning this vacation to Disney World scares me a little. I don't want to get 'taken for a ride' by signing up for some 'cheap' way to visit Disney, but i can't afford to go overboard either. I would LOVE some REAL savings tips if anyone has any to share...it would be greatly appreciated. We're traveling the end of April, beginning of May.

[grace&philipsmom]

I can't believe I am only now finding you guys! Finally a place to get my disney fix. I love this forum :thumbsup2

[ljwrn]

So much info, so little time!

[MissNurse]

I am new to this board, and I am so excited to have found it! We are planning our next trip for 2010, so all of this info is very helpful. I've been 4 times 1994, 1996, 1997, 2008. Last year was the first with my kids. I will be able to plan so much more effectively with this! Thanks all!:goodvibes

[cangirl]

Hello!:cool1:

This is my first time on any type of discussion board, great to be here! Bear with me if I mess up! Planning a trip to DL, but HOJO is booked. Has anyone had experience about waiting for a cancellation, or are there any other good hotel suggestions? Just myself and an 8 year old, so we are pretty adaptable, although my sister is staying at HOJO and we would like to be close. Is the Menage family friendly? Thanks for any advice:banana:

[nvr2much_diznee]

Hi Everybody! This is my first post and I'm really excited I joined!!! :cool1:
I can't wait to start posting and joining the family! I'm still in middle school but I am IN LOVE with Disney!!!! :banana:

[PansGirl]

Hi all!
I'm enjoying a day off from work and stumbled upon this site- It looks soooo great! I'm a California dweller, land of the sun..and Disneyland!
Season pass holders and go as often as time and funds allow!

So, here I am and I hope to become part of this amazing network of Disney fans and fun..
Nice to "meet" you...!

:cool1:

[j-ariel]

did anyone help you yet? if not, go into your signature and edit and when you make the ticker make sure you copy and paste the entire thing of the url even the parenthesis, good luck, you can even click on someone elses to get to the site quicker, thats how i did it..

[Amandamouseketeer]

Thanks to all of you for your welcome and advice. I've been lurking for awhile, but have finally registered and this is my first post. I've been to WDW twice, but counting down to the first time in Oct. for DH and the rest of the family. God bless you all!

[Brody]

Just closed today. YEA!! Only took 4 weeks

[Beavis]

Hello - I have been around but decided to join to get more information and help those with the info I have. I have been to WDW 5 times and hope to go 2 more times this year pirate:

[RainBlanken]

Just booked our airline tickets for a Land & Sea honeymoon cruise in October!

I have been lurking for more than a year, now. This board has been the source of many tips, tricks and undiscovered secrets that have saved us tons of money and led us in the direction of worry-free fun. I'm finally posting actively, mostly to say :lovestruc thank you:lovestruc and share our experiences!

Our first trip was last September and we did seven nights at POFQ hotel, the dining plan, and four days at the parks. With three kids and tow adults our grand total was $3000 with plane tickets. That's a cheap trip!

I never went to WDW as a child, and after that trip I became an addict. We are now planning our honeymoon for just us adults (we have a Brady Bunch kind of family) and I couldn't be more excited!!! :banana:

[DisneyBelle27]

Hi!

I've looked around this board a bit but finally got around to joining. Now, if I need help I'll have a place to go, and hopefully I'll be able to help other people too!

I'm really excited because I just booked our plane tickets today for our land and sea trip in July (3 nights POFQ/4 nights cruise)!! I've never been on a Disney cruise before and I CAN'T wait!!! :yay:

[oddBotkins]

This is my first post:scared: and I want to say thank you to all of the young at heart. It is enlightening to know that there are so many Disney lovers out there willing to go to infinity and beyond to share there experiences, ideas, criticisms and cancellations. I will be returning with my family, DW, DS13, DD8 and D-INLAWS, to WDW May 16-23. Boy do I love my inlaws, Papa Love and Sweetheart, they paid for the airfair. It is my ninth trip. I plan, plan plan...so they don't have to. Also, makes the trip that much more enjoyable for all I have 99% of my ADRs completed. Got a great 4/3 free at the CBR. Got the DDP and I'm just itchin' for the time to pass. In the meantime I have spend numerous hours in these discussion boards as an outsider and I think its time I come in. I also am trying to get an Fantasmic ADR, party of 6, for May 17th. I noticed that the trade/swap/cancellation discussion board may be the best possibility for making this happen. I also would like to share any knowledge, albiet little, that I may have with others on my experiences. I will need to work on my signature stuff and all that but I needed to at least get started.

Sure this can be found somewhere, and this might not be the place to ask but when looking at DVC points listings many have a reply that says "bump"... anyone know what that means?

[dizfan]

Sure this can be found somewhere, and this might not be the place to ask but when looking at DVC points listings many have a reply that says "bump"... anyone know what that means?

Threads are ordered based on the most recent post.

A bump is a way to push a thread to the top of the list shown.
Translation...bumping it to the top.
For example, if someone has DVC points for rent thread and it hasn't received a new post for a few days, their thread may be on page 4. Fewer people will see the post, so they simply add a Reply with "bump". This puts it at the top of the list and lets everyone reading the thread know it was just bumped to the top.

It's polite to only bump after a couple days.

Hi Welcome aboard. Choosing restaurants is what got me into being a DISer, too!! The Rain Forrest is still at AK, but it is not included in the dining plan if you are opting for that.:cool2:

Look in your user control panel (User CP) and all threads that you post on should show up there. Click and find where you posted.

[Dopey's twin Dippy]

hi. i went to the right and clicked on my user name. when i went to hit posts i replied to or posts i started it sent me to the next line that said''--- that search is disabled???? i dont know, all i know is all the years i have been posting if i was back on something you could always see what your wrote. i dont know, maybe i should give up. ha. ?? also on the bottom left where it says smilies are ON, (IMG) is ON, then the 3rd one says HTML is OFF. dont know what that means.

You didn't do what I said;) Go to the top tool bar on the left and click on User CP. You will have a list of the last few threads you posted on. On the menu at the left click on subscribed threads and you will find all the threads you have ever subscribed to.

Search is not running now so the click on your name thing doesn't work. And even when it does there is a few days lag time for things to show up. So that is why being subscribed is so important. We made sure your profile was set up correctly when the password issue was fixed. :)

We LOVE POR, of course, it's the only place we have actually stayed on-site. However, we like to just visit some of the other resorts and for a Moderate, we like it the most (even better than SOME of the Deluxe properties). Hope you enjoy it there.

OP means Original Poster--the one that starts a thread

MNSSHP is Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party

TTC is the Ticket and Transportation Center.

All of these and more can be found in the thread "A list of Common Abbreviations" just a few below this thread.

[I'mDownWithDisney]

Hello,

I just found these forums, and they are already a favorite. I'm 33, dad of 2 girls (3yrs and 2yrs), and a longtime Disney fan. I was lucky enough to go nearly every year as a kid. My wife and I honeymooned at WL, and so far we have gone every year with our kids....twice last year. We generally stay at Fort Wilderness in our camper or a cabin. We have also stayed at CBR and WL a few times, but generally prefer FW, especially with the kids.

There is a lot of really good info on this site, and I hope that I can add a small bit, as well.

[Rayanne]

Hello Everyone this is the first WDW trip I am planning!!! I guess I will be posting alot... lol This is my new hobby to get my family to WDW every year at least:goodvibes

[gembabe]

Just wanted to take the time to say thank you to so many wonderful posters, going to Disney for the 1st time in May and even though I was already excited, the wonderful posts here from all of you has heightened my excitement level to the extreme.....Thanks so much for your useful tidbits, photos and time. :cool1:

[Barber66]

I have been lurking for years. We are in the process of planning our 3rd trip to disney and decided to finally join. So many of my questions have already been answered through the lurking stage, but I seem to have more...

You are not able to change your username. You will need to either keep what you have or start a completely new account.

I've been lurking and absorbing info while planning our trip to WDW in May. Thought it was time to stop lurking, say Hi and thanks to everyone posting here. Awesome site!

[MatthewGracesMom]

Me too, having been checking for a month, and finally registered.:yay:

[clchev]

I just finished listening to the DisUnplugged podcast-I listen to them as soon as they are released!

The podcast talked about becoming a member of the boards and the more welcoming nature of these boards compared to some others. It made me decide to become more active rather than just sitting back.

I have 2 grown children and we routinely meet at WDW, most recently for a week in March. Going back for mother's day, then in early July for a day (while in town for business).

Love DVC and everything Disney. Looking forward to meeting everyone.:cool1:cool1:

Hi All,

This is the best website EVER!!! Going to WDW August 29th and staying at the Allstar Music resort. Are there any playgrounds or pools suitable for children ages 2 - 5?

And, are there any places to get married (for my daughter) that are not on Disney property. Their lowest priced package cost more than our entire trip!

Thanks

You need to ask these questions on our Forums. Our resorts board can help you with the first question and we have a Disney Weddings board that can help you with the other I think.

Welcome!

[Piglet38]

Hello everyone. I am new to this great site and I am sure it is going to provide me with a lot of help whilst planning my Xmas 2010 trip. I have been to Disney 5 times before but this time instead of doing a package deal I will be doing it all separate and also looking in to renting some DVC points to spend the last few nights of our hols somewhere nice. Look forward to reading all your help and advice. :cheer2:

[ToDisneyJan10]

New to this board.

We are taking an unexpected vacation to Disney World in January 2010 for my BILs wedding (at Disney).

I haven't been to DW since I was 8, in the mid 1980s and at that time we only had one day to spend at the park.

DH and I have two daughters. One will be almost 3 and the other about 15m. I'm looking forward to tips and hints about enjoying the park with two young children.

[THEVACATIONFAMILY]

My wife and I took our 3 and 14mo to DW for a few daysand our 3 DD loved it, she is still talking about it and we're going again in late September. Our 14mo had a terrible time, guess we should not have left her blanket in our resort room. Also, she was somewhat scared of the characters, but warmed up to them. All in all, we had a good time, but come September, we will have a great, magical time. Hope you have a great time as well. Enjoy yourself and have a magical vacation/ wedding DisneyJan10

WELCOME! How exciting ... a Disney Wedding AND first time visits for your children! Your 3 year old will have a ball; the younger one may be so-so. Just remember to take a favorite blanket, toy, whatever is needed to make your child feel secure. Don't know what your budget is but I would definately recommend staying at one of the resorts on the monorail. My absolute favorite is the Polynesian. It's quiet, peaceful and beautiful! Your main park will probably be the Magic Kingdom but you should enjoy Hollywood Studios (Playhouse Disney is LOTS of fun ... even for your youngest child) and Animal Kingdom as well. EPCOT may be a little to "grown-up" for your children but make an effort to enjoy it also. If you just take a stroll through the World Showcase countries (the ride in Mexico is fun for kids) and The Land and especially Living Seas would be fun for the children. The fireworks may scare the kids (during granddaughters 1st visit at age 4 her Dad would have to get her out of the parks before the fireworks began! ... or get her on a ride so she wouldn't hear the loud sounds) but if you stay at one of the monorail resorts you'd be able to see the fireworks without the really loud noises! Decide on at least one Character meal. They are such fun and you'll be able to get one-on-one attention from the characters ... and GREAT photos!
Do lots of research the next few months and you've gotten a good start by signing up on Disboards. I'd make a decision on which resort you want to stay at ASAP and get your reservations made. Purchase a WDW with Kids book and read it from cover to cover. You'll have so much fun planning and I promise you'll be as "hooked" on Disney, as we all are! Good luck!:cool1::surfweb::yay::cheer2:

[W.E.D.]

Hello to all! So excited I have found this place. I have been a fan of all things Disney since my first trip to WDW in 1976. Boy how things have changed in 30+ years.

I'm approximately the same age as the MK, so my wife has agreed that we will go sometime in 2011 for my, and the MK's, 40th. I'm already excited even though I'm two years out. Thank goodness I found this board!!

[Rissa773]

Hello all! I am very very new at this, however I have many questions! I just got back from my first trip to Disney with my Fiancée, and we sat through a DVC meeting. We are very interested, however are a little hesitant at the same time. We are in our mid-twenties and are not sure if this will be worth our while for the time being.

I love the idea that there are resorts all around the world, so we are not limited to just Disney. I would like to hear some feedback from you guys if anyone has been to the other resorts besides the Disney ones (which are BEAUTIFUL!).

Also, since all we can afford at the moment is the 160pt package, is that enough to do more than one vacation usually? That is my biggest worry; I need at least one vacation a year, hopefully 2! Also, how does it work to add on points? What do they come out to per point? I believe our guide told us $112, and they would double our down payment, but is that the best incentive or should I ask for another? I saw in some of the forums that they are discounting the price per point-wouldn't that be a better deal?

So many questions!

Thank you all for reading and I can’t wait for all of your helpful answers!

These are all great questions that you need to ask on our DVC boards. It is very unlikely that you will get any answers here. Please repost on the DVC board and you should get lots of great input. And :welcome: to the DIS!:thumbsup2

Hello everyone, been listening to the podcast for about 6 months now during my walks, not familiar at all with boards, trying to figure out all the links, incredible how many, anyway thanks to the podcast crew for keeping me company I have lost 25 pounds. Hopefully we will take my son to Magic Kingdom for the first time soon, we want both grandparents to go but have not been able to because of health problems the economy blah, blah blah. look forward to learning more about the boards.

[Rissa773]

Hi Lovetoscrap,

Thank you...like I said im really new at this and connot for th life of me figure these db's out! I think I posted it now on the right board...I hope so at least!

Thanks again!

[etraveler]

podcasts are great, got them on my I phone! Don't ask me how my older daughter did it. Fun and informative..

We recently went to Disney World.. First time with the kids.. They loved it!

One thing I was disappointing with was some of the restaurants in the Disney area. We tried to go to something not on disney property but it still felt like a tourist trap. I will not say the name. Think we will venture out further into Orlando next time to seek out something, well let's just say less touristy and more of a local favorite. Someone told me Dr. Phillips area???

Any ideas??

I have a wonderful week planned for October 10-17th for my family. It will include myself, DH and DS! I'm not sure who's more excited about it! We are planning on staying at All Star Movies! I'm trying to get myself overwhelmed with all the info that I've been reading because it's all very helpful! I'm also trying not to make an "official" itinerary because I don't want to stress if something doesn't go as planned! Again...I'm just sooooooo excited and soooooooo glad I found the board!!!!

[Luisa]

Hi everyone! I'm joining you from Melbourne, Australia. Making my first trip to WDW first week of December and these boards have provided me with a wealth of information! Will be travelling solo but have no problems with this as I have done Disneyland solo twice as well as Hong Kong Disneyland - I actually prefer to travel alone as then I can do the things I want to! This will be my fourth trip to the US but my first going down to Florida. I've decided to stay at Pop Century as it means I can save a few dollars to buy LOTS of gifts (as I always do), plus the only thing I'll be doing there really is sleeping so I don't need to go super swanky!:stitch2:

[vroom]

So excited to be here. Hubby and I are taking our daughter, 3 and or son 2, to Disney World in January. It will be the first trip for all of us!

wHAT DOES THAT MEAN "BUMP"

[Pure_Imagination]

I just joined the DIS boards! What a great site! Extremely helpful and the Disney love just jumps off the screen :p I got to go to Disney World with my school and absolutely loved it! The bad part was, since I was with my school I was limited to all that I could do. Now I'm going to be applying for the Disney College Program in Spring 2010 and I'm soooooo excited! To have the chance to live, work, and play in Disney World for five months would just be the best! Now I'm realizing I should take a look around the rest of the boards(not just the College Board forum) to familiarize myself more with the parks. Everything sounds so exciting and fun! Clearly one day with a school group doesn't do Disney justice :p Though it was an extremely fun day, and I did get to do *a lot*! I road my first rollercoaster during that trip (besides little kid ones, that is ;) ), even if they weren't that big of ones- I still don't ride ones that loop! Mostly I like doing the indoor ones. Anyway, I just hope I get to go back so I can experience everything- all of the attractions, the shows, dining, more characters. Disney is pretty much the definition of fun and excitement ;)

[mickeymit]

There is so much information on these boards - great stuff!!

Thanks!!:goodvibes

[mickeymit]

wHAT DOES THAT MEAN "BUMP"

When someone adds a message that says "bump", they are trying to get the thread back to the top of the forum list. For example, if the put out a thread about points they wanted to rent, but no one responded right away, a search for points available for rent might show their thread, but with a lot of newer threads above it. If a message is posted to the thread (as simple as writing "bump"), it shows up as a current thread as opposed to being dated.;)

Thank you for all of the information! I've been reading the boards for a couple of months now and am amazed at the wealth of knowledge out there from all of the members. My husband and I live in Iowa and would like to visit the World much more often, and reading the boards and listening to the podcasts get me through until my next visit!

to msvlg:

i'm new to this but it looks like if you just click on someones screen name you get a little menu and one of the options are "send a private message to <screen name>". when i logged into the boards i saw in the upper right hand corner a above the disboards menu there was a little spot that says welcome <screenname>, tells you the last time you logged in and if you have any unread and the total of pms you have.

hope that helps!

Hello everyone. Just thought I'd drop in and introduce myself, as I just registered. I can tell already there's a LOT of great info here!

I'm a single mom with one daughter and we're planning our very first trip to Disney World. We're going in early October for her 5th birthday and it'll be just the two of us. It should be quite the adventure - our first flight together, sleeping in the same room for a whole week, and a whole lot of over-stimulation I'm sure. But hopefully a fabulous time for us both! :yay:

Just wanted to say hello. I am new to this, my sister is already hooked. We are planning our first trip in September with our sons age 12 & 14. We were originally going to go to Disneyland, but my sister found out about the free dining plan and we (really) she started to investigate. :surfweb: i am looking forward to adding a countdown to my page too.
I got the email today to Upgrade and called my sister and I was so excited I couldn't talk. :rotfl:
Anyway I am looking forward to getting into this forum and learning all there is to know about wdw. IT IS A BIT OVERWHELMING :teacher:

Greetings!!

I've been reading posts for only about 1 week but decided I couldn't wait any longer to join in the fun. I'm planning a Dec. '09 trip with DH, DS (11) an DD (7)::yay:

[princessbelle1]

I just joined, so I thought I would pop in to say hello. I'm going to Disney in September, by myself. I've lurked here a bit and I can see that it's a nice, friendly place to get information and advice. Thanks for everything I've already learned! princess:

Hello everyone

I discovered this site about 6 weeks ago when I was starting to plan a WDW vacation. It's a great resource; I love it! Finally decided on the dates (early November) and booked Animal Kingdom Lodge. Haven't been to WDW in about 10 years, although we visit Disneyland in California every two or three years.

This trip will include my girlfriend, mother, and aunt (mom's sister). Unfortunately, we'll only have 4 days on site, so we will probably have to skip a park. We're just not up to 4 straight days of touring without a day off.
Oh well, there's always another time.

Looking forward to reading all the fun and informative posts.

Jim

Hello!

I registered a few weeks ago, but haven't had a proper chance to say hello. I'm a WDW veteran from the UK, with my first visit being when I was 8 and the most recent trip happening last October. I registered because not only am I planning another trip this year, I'm also hoping to get married there too and have been lurking on the wedding thread for a few weeks. So far I have found it to be really useful!

Hello Kimbers!

:welcome:

congrats on your :bride:

enjoy every minute of it.
just this morning my dd 7 asked me details of our wedding that happened over 10 yrs ago...and all I had to say was " let me get the video..
I honestly had a difficult time giving her smaller details.
I wished I would have enjoyed our process a bit more... otherwise I could have avoided feeling REALLY old. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Have fun.

[GinnyO]

Wow, this is great! I'm so excited to look around here and get to know the ins and outs.

Hello, I've been looking at this site for months now. And I'm sooo glad I found it. I'm planning our 1st ever Disney trip in September for my DD5 and DS6 birthdays!! When I decided in 2006 that we would go to Disney in 2009(I wanted to go then but everyone said the kids were too young), I had no idea how overwhelming the planning would be. If I had known all the planning involved, I would have started planning in 2006 instead if April. Now that all my reservations have been made, I have questions(and cancellations:confused3) So...... here I am!!! And I'm glad to be a part of the DIS.:goodvibes:

[CinderAngela]

I am so excited to have found a place where people are as crazy about the mouse as I am! I live relatively close to Disneyworld so I don't always get to stay in the amazing resorts that disney has to offer but I do get to go to the parks often. As often as my job will allow, that is! I am, however, staying at the All-Star Sports Resort on September 10th and 11th for my little brother's birthday party. (My dad is in LOVE with that resort!) My brother is turning 6 and it is only his second time going to Disney so I am very excited to be a part of this. I am looking for ideas on decorating his hotel room for his birthday. If anyone has any suggestions I will love you forever!

Hello!
I've been lurking since March, but finally decided to register. We went to WDW for the first time ever in May 2009, and I found SO much valuable information on this board! I don't think I would have enjoyed my vacation as much had it not been for all the great tips and tricks I learned here, reading threads up until late at night :-)

The reason why I decided to register is we enjoyed our trip so much, and there as such great discounts available, we decided to go again in December this year, so I'll be lurking a lot around here again.

Thanks DIS!!!

[aleask]

Hi All,

I just wanted to leave my first post. I am very excited to learn about this site. My daughter and I are going to WDW at the end of the month. This will be her 1st time there and my first in a long time. Should be a great time!

Thanks all,

Adam

[PeggyFriend]

Hi there! New to the boards and looking forward to lots of great tips!

Went to WDW in 1990 and 2002. Starting to plan an August 2010 trip for myself, DH, DS who will be 5, and my parents. Not sure where to begin or if it's too soon to start planning. Great to be here!

[kozmo]

Hi, I have been reading through these DIS forums for a long time but first time posting. We like to visit Disney at least once a year.

[JOCAmom]

Hi. I've been reading here for a long time. Or at least it feel like a long time with all the informations here.

We've been to Disney a few times but are planning our first Disney Cruise for next December.

[Momof3mouseketeers]

Greetings from north Cali!

I've been reading all the great tips on here since 2007(!) when I planned my kids' 1st trip to Disneyland.

Now I am planning our 1st trip to Disney World and needless to say, I've become a little obsessed with the planning. I LOVE especially reading the Disney with Families section and the Budget Board--so many great ideas and tips.

I'm feeling a little apprehensive about going to WDW after Christmas and a little past New Year's, from what I've read, the CRAZIEST time! But if I can survive Disneyland during Spring Break week and Memorial Day weekend with toddlers (the latter time I was even 5 months pregnant!), surely we can enjoy WDW during the holiday season? We'll just be enjoying it with oh, a million other families. :lovestruc

My latest question that I'm tackling this week: Will my toddler like the milk that doesn't need refrigeration??? :ssst: I just can't see paying $10/night for 9 nights... But I think I would cringe even more everytime I had to pay $2 for an individual milk serving! Hmm, perhaps it's off to read more on how fridge swaps work.

Thanks from this very excited mom--4 more months until New Year's at Cinderella's castle!
