    Have you had the H1N1 vaccine??

    Our entire family (myself -- chronic condition and health care worker, DH, and both DS', one of whom has a chronic condition) had our shots. We all had sore arms and 2 of us had a mild fever afterwards. I work in an office of about 60 people. On our floor alone (25 workers), there are at least 5...

    Need to get my Mother a new birth certificate copy, born in Quebec

    Hi -- I got caught in this one as well. The reason the old birth certificates are no longer valid is that they have no security features that prevent them from being copied/forged. After 9/11, they decided it was way too easy to get a fake Canadian passport using these bits of paper from various...

    Singles who are for the "Love of Disney" - Part 3

    Hugs to you Sha and all of Jen's DISboard buddies. I first met Jennifer at a Donny Osmond fan gathering where I found out she lived in the same city as my parents, so over the last 5 years we have emailed, talked on the phone a few times a week and gotten together practically every time I came...

    Parking in the parks

    I might add that when we were at WDW a month ago, they were handing out coupons good for a free pin when you paid for your parking! That was a nice surprise and we had fun trading our free pin every day. AND....one day the PARKING was free! BONUS!!

    Not happy with Henry's camera shop at all!

    Tiger, I am impressed at how you are handling this issue. You go!! I will be watching for the outcome of this story and will continue to refuse any extended warranty offered. I have been researching NIkon cameras as I am about to take the plunge from a point and shoot (although expensive)...

    Weight Loss 2009

    Good morning all! I thought I would put in an appearance on this thread after being MIA for a long while! We went to WDW over the March break and I was actually quite pleased at the variety of choices in the park. I was able to eat relatively healthily and of course did oodles of walking! I am...

    Windsor Hills or Value Resort Onsite?????

    We loved WH, would go back in a flash! And actually, our condo had salt and pepper (Disney!) shakers, coffee filters, Kleenex, and a couple of dishwasher tablets already there as well as a full roll of garbage bags. I don't know if we lucked out (we left dishwashing liquid, almost a full bottle...

    Windsor Hills or Value Resort Onsite?????

    We just got back from WH and you no longer need a card to get into the pool/clubhouse area. We didn't pay anything and the pool gates were never locked. If you borrow any sports equipment like basketballs, tennis raquets or billiard cues/balls you have to leave a deposit, though.

    Are there still long lines for Toy Story Mania?

    We were at DHS on Thursday, arrived around 9:20 (another sleepy teen) and by the time we got through the FP line our return was 2:05pm. We had to leave around 3pm to drive to Tampa (we went to a baseball game) so never did get to ride RnRC because the FP were too late for us and the lineup was...

    Windsor Hills or Value Resort Onsite?????

    We just got back from WH with 2 kids (13 and 10) and I can't say enough about it!! I am another who would rather not cook/clean on vacation but honestly, when the kids are excited about heading to the parks I would rather sit them down at the kitchen table and let them help themselves to cereal...

    Budget playing with my fees...

    When I booked my rental in September 08 I got a confirmation with a total cost of $225. We are leaving tomorrow and I went to their website to double check the reservation -- the rate is the same but the total cost is up to $240! Is this normal, can I complain? I know it's only 15 bucks but I...

    Question about old Water Parks and More passes

    We went to WDW in Dec 2004 and bought 4 day WP&M passes. We used the 4 days on the passes but not the Water Park option, which at the time was good for a WP admission, a Pleasure Island admission or I think a Wide WOrld of SPorts admission. We are leaving Saturday for a week's vacation and...

    How to get my friend to not try to pass her 5 and 3 1/2 yr old off as less than 3?

    I had the opposite problem -- both my kids are very tall and when we last went, DS1 was 8.5 but looked 11 LOL I was terrified we'd be questioned even though he was "legal" -- I still dragged his birth cert all over WDW!
