    Strategy for Midday Naps

    I'll add MTCW...we LOVED doing naps in the middle of the day. Our boys always felt like they got 2 days out of each day. We all got to decompress a little. We would usually do a morning until time to eat lunch, head back to the room and nap a little, then hit the pool for a little while and...

    Do you ever go to a resort to hang out when not a guest?

    LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to resort hop! We choose somewhere to visit and grab a snack, walk around, just take it all in! AKL is also one of our favorites and love the boat ride to POR from Disney Springs.

    Surprising grandson

    I've seen a ton of good ideas on Pinterest but this year, I surprised my kids with a very large wrapped box. Inside the box, I had put the Magicbands and 3 helium filled balloons with the words "family trip", "sunshine" and "Florida" written on them. When they opened the box, the balloons...

    Help from those close to IAD or BWI

    Would you pull your kids out of school for a Disney vacation?

    We did take ours out of school when they were younger and I wish NOW that I had done it more often. I have 2 in high school and it is impossible to take them out now due to classes and sports schedules. I would but can't. We are taking them out at the end of the school year this year after...

    Corando Springs, Old key West, Saratoga springs

    I love Old Key West! Since it is an older resort, the rooms are quite large. I have not stayed at Saratoga but have visited several times. Coronado would be my third choice. I'm sure there are many other folks who have god advice and more recent visits to comment on. Have fun!:woohoo:

    Has anyone successfully used both pools at POFQ and POR?

    We have stayed at the POR several times and have walked over to the POFQ a few times for the pool. Our boys prefer the POR pool as well. It seems bigger and they enjoy the slide too. We walk to the POFQ pool and have taken the boat a few times back to the POR. Depends on how much of a hurry...

    How often do the refillable mug designs change?

    Just came back yesterday. The mugs are the same as pictured. MTCW, I don't care for the design of the cup. It's not the graphics that I mind althought it is almost identical to the ones we got in May. The shape of the cup is different. It is the same size from top to bottom (mostly). Can't...

    Disney Crocs On Clearance

    I had ordered these and love them and the price..however, I am a bit disappointed with the customer service. I ordered 2 pair a few days ago. Today, the price has dropped.
