    Can you wear sunglasses at TL or BB water parks on the rides?

    I wear an older pair of prescription "Transitions" glasses (sunglasses outside, normal glasses inside). I bought a strap that goes over the ends of the ear parts of the frames. These hold them snug. I have been asked to take them off and hold them a couple of times, on body slides.

    How much would you pay to have Wi-Fi available in the parks?

    Don't worry, you are not alone. I develop software & hardware for 3G systems used by ATT and others. My cell phone is the "free" one given by my service provider. I have sent one text message in my life, and that was just to my oldest daughter when she got her first phone :) BTW, everyone...

    How much would you pay to have Wi-Fi available in the parks?

    We are in the $0 crowd. We don't even carry our phones with us in the park. We leave them locked in our resort room safe, and just check when we are back there for emergency messages.

    ? about Wishes from Poly Beach

    Agreed that this special occasion fireworks is spectacular from the beach. The fireworks we saw from the Poly in 2007 were like the shot posted by BabyDovesx2, which I don't consider spectacular (from that distance).

    ? about Wishes from Poly Beach

    Agreed, although the crowds might bother some, especially at very busy times. Some of the fireworks don't go too high, so I don't think you get a very good view of those from the Poly, and in any case they are a fair distance away. We only watched from the Poly when our kids were younger...

    Do you wear water shoes in the water parks?

    Never, just barefoot. We always go in May. One visit the pavement had gotten hot in a few places and we had to move quickly to the next wet/shaded spot.

    Any thoughts on Spirit of Aloha

    Here are my thoughts posted years ago about our May 2007 trip, edited a bit. I doubt if things have changed that much. I won't touch upon the value for $$ aspect but give you my impressions, good and bad. We did Spirit of Aloha on a Friday night. There was a very long line-up, and it took...

    Waterparks - where to put KTTW card?

    We do (1) as well. We also have Disney water-proof(?) cases on lanyards, but that is mostly for the other parks, where we might get wet -- Splash Mountain, Kali River Rapids, or simple rain.

    Lockers at the waterparks?

    We always get a large locker for the 5 of us, holding 5 pairs sandals/flip-flops 5 sets of clothes 5 towels assorted cameras, wallets, etc I would think a small locker would probably be enough for 2.

    Best solutions or preventative tips for those not used to walking 10-15 miles a day!!

    I agree. Take MK for example. The railroad encompassing the park has a length of 1.5 miles. You would have to walk in circles around the park 10 times to reach 15 miles. The distance around the World Showcase in Epcot is a similar size. Think of it another way... Average human walking speed...

    Water Parks or not?

    You could really ask that question about everything at Disney. I think it's all about the theming and the Disney atmosphere in general. We go to both waterparks every trip (weather permitting) and sometimes do one a second time.

    has anyone ever taken the auto train from Va to FL?

    Took the autotrain there and back for our trips in May 2007, 2009, and again this coming May. :yay: Getting rooms is by far the best way to travel, but can be quite expensive depending on time of year and direction travelled, as well as how many rooms are already booked. I don't fly, and I...
