    Anyone own a Toyota Venza?

    I have a 2009 Venza (4 cylinder FWD) that we purchased new and I have been very happy with it. . The interior is roomy and well laid out, the rear seat and cargo areas are generous, and mileage is decent (I had a minivan prior). Reliability has been great, just routine maintenance in the 5...

    Magic Kingdom Steam Train Tour

    When I called in December 2008 to make Steam Train Tour reservations for March 2009, I was told they ran the tour Monday-Saturday (we did it on a Tuesday).

    BBB nail question

    When we were there in March, DD7 had the choice of press-on nails or regular polish. She chose the press-ons, they stayed on for most of the day, aside from one which didn't survive BTMRR :rotfl: A second set was packed up in her bag.

    Wishes cruise questions

    Sorry, I don't know about Fort Wilderness. But I can tell you that on our cruise, DD7 and DD9 had to wear life vests. The adults didn't. I hope this helps! :)

    Illuminations and Happily Ever After Cruises - Find One To Share

    We just did a premium Wishes cruise last week. There was a cooler with cans of coke, diet coke, sprite, plus bottled water. There was a basket with snack-sized bags of regular chips, bbq chips, cheetos, pretzels, and smartfood cheddar popcorn. (my thanks to DD7 and DD10 who helped me...

    BBB "cool dude-ette"

    They did without a reservation for DD9 after they finished with DD7 (who had an 8am reservation for the usual package). BUT, our FGIT had to ask at the podium if she had time to do it. So, I'd say you should make an reservation. I think BBB is usually fully booked. :)

    BBB "cool dude-ette"

    Sorry, no personal experience trying to match up a red-head. I didn't see all of the "natural" hair colors that they have to choose from, but DD7's hair is an unusual dark blond/light brown/lots-of-highlights sort of color, and they had something that matched perfectly. She got the "Disney...

    BBB "cool dude-ette"

    Thank you! :goodvibes As a matter of fact...even when she was a baby, I couldn't take her anywhere without someone commenting on her hair color. Many times we heard "I spend a lot of money trying to get my hair that color." DD has never cared much about her hair color but I think she's...

    BBB "cool dude-ette"

    ^^ Thanks! We didn't think there was a not-so-girly option at BBB. DD was really thrilled with it, though she did try to make the shiny Mickey confetti "fall off" :rolleyes:

    Just back 3/29-4/4, any dining questions?

    Contemporary's in-room dining made the cake. I started with the cake hotline, got bounced around a little and then ended up with in-room dining. The cake was really good, wonderfully decorated and exceeded my expectations. It was where is was supposed to be when it was supposed to be there. I...

    Just back 3/29-4/4, any dining questions?

    I think I covered all the restaurants earlier in the thread except for 1900 Park Fare dinner. The buffet was very good, there was an excellent variety to choose from. Our server was attentive and interacted well with DD9 and DD7. The characters were good, in particular Cinderella's stepmother...

    Just back from Contemporary, any questions?

    Oh, forgot to mention too that the cabanas are now available at the quiet pool. They looked pretty spiffy :)

    Just back 3/29-4/4, any dining questions?

    We didn't do the dining plan this trip. So this was paid out of pocket :eek: by my parents :love:. DH had the sushi as an appetizer. I don't do sushi, but he said it was very good. :)

    Just back 3/29-4/4, any dining questions?

    It was our first time there and we really liked it. DD7 and DD9 are not really into interacting with the characters any more, but Stitch was too much fun for them to resist :) We were seated promptly (early, even), the food and service were both very good. It's family style, so they bring...

    Just back from Contemporary, any questions?

    I'm not sure if it's the same thing, but there's a store called Fantasia that is between Bay View Gifts and the Arcade. It didn't look like there was any work being done on it, so if that is what you are referring to, it's finished :) The pool itself is done, but the landscaping is still...

    Just back from Contemporary, any questions?

    We were in 5229, which is on the Bay side opposite the pool. The location was great, stairs nearby took us very close to the pool. It was quiet and a lovely view. :)
