    Just back from BC and Contemporary

    just a tip. If you need to call anywhere within WDW from your hotel room, just dial 0 and the operator can transfer you directly. I did this several times and I never got billed the 0.75 cents per call. This was how I contacted each resort directly to find out whether they had any rooms available.

    Just back from BC and Contemporary

    At the BC we were on the 4th floor, 4575 I think. We had a full size balcony that looked towards the pirate ship slide and the back walkway that leads you from the BC to the boardwalk. We had 2 umbrella strollers and could not put them anywhere except behind the door or else we couldn't walk...

    Kids meal at Kona

    we just ate at Kona's on tues night. The kids menu had a choice of grilled chicken or fish with rice and veggies. They also had mac n cheese and chicken strips (I think).

    Princess Character Dinner at Epcot

    we just had dinner there last fri night. If you love princesses, this is the place to be!! I think they had 4 or 5 roaming about and 1 in the lobby for you to take a picture with. One suggestion, you have to pay for that picture, so I suggest you also take one with your own camera. The food...

    Please help me decide our restaurants...

    Boma was our favourite and Kona Cafe was a nice surpise too. I enjoyed Ohana's but my dh didn't. He thought it was just too much food.

    'Ohana breakfast or Cape May breakfast?

    Just came back yesterday, we did Cape May last weekend for breakfast and it was nothing special. The food was all your standard fare. We saw some characters, but other than that, nothing special.

    Just back from BC and Contemporary

    I called the resorts myself. I was a bit ticked that CRO was telling me no rooms when the night before at 11pm the front desk at the poly told me they had rooms. So, I was on a mission. GF had not rooms, I called CR next and got in!!

    Beach Club vs Contemporary

    just returned from both BC and CR. We loved CR over BC. Rooms are larger, bathroom, much better and larger over BC. New rooms are beautiful!! We loved it. Also the location can't be beat. The pool not as great as the BC but my kids enjoyed it just the same. Have you considered doing a split...

    Just back from BC and Contemporary

    We stayed at BC for 4 nights and Contemporary for 3. It was not planned that we split our stay. We were not that impressed with the BC rooms. My 3 yo son was scared of the illuminations fireworks every night at 9:30pm. They are really really loud, even from the shower I could hear the...

    Spectromagic Parade/Water Parade?

    we just returned today and we saw a water parade every night on Bay Lake which consisted of 2 long "boats" which had different water creatures, ie octopus, dolphin, etc and at the end all the boats turned into american flags. Quite the sight. One night it happened around 9:30pm and another...

    Beach Club Marketplace

    Does the BC market sell milk that I can bring back to my room? How about single servings of cereal? I tried ordering through garden grocer, but I need $40 and it's a stretch. Trying to think of some other way to have a quick breakfast in our room. We are on the DDP.

    Gift Shop at Grand Floridian

    Is the costume nice? I know that the Alice dress is on the less "fancier" end of things compared to all the other princesses. Are there any accessories? Anyone recall the approx cost?

    Getting ready to leave the Yacht Club

    what's the quickest way to get to the front entracnce to Epcot to get to the rides? Is there a bus that will take you from the BC/YC to the main gate or is it best just to walk from the IG? How long of a walk is it to the main gate from the IG? I'll have a 6yo and a 3.5 yo with me.

    Buy groceries while on DDP?

    I'm thinking of buying some milk, cereal, snacks and bottled water from the garden grocer for our 8 day trip next week. Plan is for a few days to eat a quick breakfast in the room. Do you think I really need to do that or will our combined snack credits and CS credits be more than enough...
