    October-November OR November-December?

    To some extent you're at the mercy of the vagaries of the weather whenever you go, but we've always been very lucky during the first half of November—little rain, not too hot and humid during the day and pleasantly warm at night—but that's by no means a given. Your first option would see you...

    ? Lounge at Mco

    Count us in on that. For us, this is MCO's greatest gift. As much as we like to grab some last minute duty free, we'd rather camp out at the bar inside McCoy's or in the lobby lounge and go airside as late as possible. Far better than any airport lounge we've experienced.

    Only 24 Hours From Tulsa: Oklahoma City

    Thanks, Sue. You're so sweet! It's lovely to think that my ramblings are giving pleasure to someone other than me. :goodvibes

    Only 24 Hours From Tulsa: Oklahoma City

    After dinner we head back to the hotel in Bricktown. Leaving Matt happily propping up the bar, Susan and I walk to the landing dock below Mickey Mantle Drive, across the street west from the third base entrance of the Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark, for the 40 minute round-trip Riverwalk Canal...

    Only 24 Hours From Tulsa: Oklahoma City

    Although we’ve only managed to take in a small fraction of what’s on offer here, we’re conscious that time’s beginning to run away from us. In any event, the Chihuly Collection was the big draw and we’re forced to acknowledge that we really do need to press on. We walk the short distance...

    Only 24 Hours From Tulsa: Oklahoma City

    Rather than retracing our outbound route, we take the opportunity to follow the alignment of Route 66 that passes the State Capitol along Lincoln Boulevard. The capitol building sits atop the OKC oil field and boasts an active oil derrick. Hoping for a fruitful outcome this...

    Only 24 Hours From Tulsa: Oklahoma City

    I seldom post on the boards these days, so I hope you'll indulge me in what is a pretty selfish exercise. An explanation is warranted as to why I'm resuming reports of a trip we took more than 4 years ago. For posterity's sake, I'd always intended to record the details of our first Oklahoma...

    I wasn't quite sure what to expect from the Wyndham. Whilst the majority of reviews on TA are good, there's a hardcore of quibbles covering a handful of recurring themes. On top of that, I wasn't convinced that the reality would live up to the promise of the expertly shot professional photos...

    Cheers, Joh. That makes sense now. It takes me a while to get my noodle around things these days! :teeth:

    Memory Maker

    Oh, okay, I get it. It does include everyone in our party. I think I'll go for it.

    Memory Maker

    I'm still confused. Does it work like the old PhotoPass? Do we all get cards from the park photographers and link to the account I pay for? You talk about your account and Sian's account. Did you pay separately? I need an Idiot's Guide!

    Memory Maker

    Please give me the Memory Maker 101. If I purchase it, does it include everyone linked to my MDE or do we have to purchase it individually?

    Bonnet Creek

    We're due to stay at the Wyndham Grand (the hotel part of the complex, not the timeshare) for a week as part of our May trip. I wanted the Waldorf Astoria, but I couldn't find a price I was prepared to pay (which is annoying as it's often possible to find some great deals). The Wyndham Grand...

    Car hire, who do you use and why?

    It really is a case of shopping around, and playing the waiting game until you hit upon something. Car hire is always the last thing we worry about booking. I am looking at the moment, though! ebookers is coming in high for me for May.

    Fast pass plus query with attraction tickets direct

    ATD's big claim is that they issue real tickets, not vouchers, so I'm not quite sure what it is your friends have received. I think they tend to send the tickets out a couple of weeks prior to travel. On the one occasion I ordered tickets from them, I wasn't willing to let them have my money...
