    The "Let's go/Let's wait/Let's cancel/Oh heck, we're going" trip report

    I know....I got bored with it. There really wasn't much to tell except we had a wonderful time and on Tuesday, Olivia was chosen as the "Big Kahuna" to open Typhoon Lagoon! We were in line at 9:00 thinking it opened at 9 but it didn't open until 10. Clyde struck a conversation with a woman who...

    The "Let's go/Let's wait/Let's cancel/Oh heck, we're going" trip report

    Thanks, Allyson, Traci, and Melissa! Hope to pick up some other readers as I go along, LOL. I'll detail the ADR disaster and our first day later.

    The "Let's go/Let's wait/Let's cancel/Oh heck, we're going" trip report

    Hi! It's been a long time since I've been here. My last report was for our Disneyland trip two summers ago. :love: I have been reprimanded by my precious friend Allyson (Mom of CKJ) to get this report done, for both of us, I think. This trip initially was planned to occur from 12/21 to 12/29...

    Getting to Epcot from the Boardwalk?

    Thank you, but I'm trying to minimize time on my feet, LOL. This will be our third day there and the day before our day off at the water park. I think taking the boat all the way around will do for us, but if we're feeling up to it, walking back through the Boardwalk after dark would be cool...

    Getting to Epcot from the Boardwalk?

    LOL! Thank you. I realize that sounds dumb. I looked at the boat dock for HS on my Passporter map. Honestly, we always go straight from the tram to the entrance at HS and I have never SEEN the lake/dock there - I didn't even know there was one. :headache: Even if it takes 20 minutes or so...

    Getting to Epcot from the Boardwalk?

    Ah, interesting. :yay: Where do you catch the boat from HS? That sounds even better. I just want to make sure we can get back to our car at HS from Epcot around closing time. Thanks for the idea!

    Getting to Epcot from the Boardwalk?

    We have our 9th WDW trip coming up in three weeks, so we're not newbies but we just have never done this and I'm wondering how it works to get to World Showcase from the Boardwalk resort. Can you get to the Boardwalk if you're not a resort guest or don't have a meal reservation there? We will be...

    First/last trip to DL and DCA -- June 2007 from a WDW Vet

    We went to California Adventure the second of our three days at Disney. This park seems to get mixed reviews. Apparently one complaint is that it’s not “Disney enough.” While the expected Disney presence isn't necessarily strong, the detail, thought, and theming are on par with any other Disney...

    First/last trip to DL and DCA -- June 2007 from a WDW Vet

    Installment #2 We found it difficult to plan our day and ride sequences well because of having fewer rides with FP at DL. We did get on BTMRR the first day and all three of us agree that it is a better ride at DL than at WDW. We couldn’t really put our finger on why. It did seem a little...

    First/last trip to DL and DCA -- June 2007 from a WDW Vet

    DISCLAIMER: The title of this post, "First/last trip to DL and DCA," reflects only the fact that we knew this was a trip we would only ever make once. It's not that we would NOT do it again, only that we only planned to do it once to begin with. :-) Our trip to DL and DCA begins on Day 5 of our...

    Funniest comments you've overheard in WDW

    Not at WDW but at DL last month. We were in line at a snack bar and the woman in front of us asked, "If I get the large drink and large popcorn, do I get free refills all day?" :rotfl: :rotfl2: :rotfl: :rotfl2: :rotfl: :rotfl2: It's no coincidence that "mouse" and "money" start with the same...

    Sea World & San Diego Zoo -- A Prelude to Disneyland

    Day 4: Monday, June 4 – Travel from San Diego to LA/Anaheim We arose and packed up to move headquarters, then ate breakfast at the hotel and headed off. We arrived in LA around 11:30, I suppose. The only map I had was an Enterprise map and it wasn’t that great. It had numbers all over it...

    Sea World & San Diego Zoo -- A Prelude to Disneyland

    Addendum to Day 3: Since it was only about 6:30, on the way back to the hotel we drove out to the highway that parallels the Pacific. Found a good place to park and got out to dabble our toes, just in case we didn’t get another chance later. And we didn’t get a chance, so it’s a good thing...

    Sea World & San Diego Zoo -- A Prelude to Disneyland

    Day 3: Sunday, June 3 – San Diego Zoo Up and at ‘em, everybody, I’m going to the zoo!! I’ve wanted to see the San Diego Zoo ever since I was a child and saw Joan Embery take cute little critters to crawl all over Johnny Carson. Our SoCal City Passes actually allowed us an option for either the...

    Sea World & San Diego Zoo -- A Prelude to Disneyland

    Day 2: Saturday, June 2 – Sea World Off to Sea world for breakfast with Shamu!! That’s at 9:30 but they let breakfast patrons in the park before it opens at 9. So we got in, then headed off to the side where that is held, and a well-intentioned employee tried to keep us out from the general...

    Funniest comments you've overheard in WDW

    Hey, y'all is just quaint - at least here in Snellville, where everybody is somebody, about 15 miles from you! :rotfl2: I dropped that one in SoCal a lot (okay, as much as usual) last week and didn't hang around to see anyone's expressions. Although there's probably not a Spanish equivalent so...
