    HK, SDL, and TDL commando trip or concentrate on TDL?

    I would not recommend hitting all three and not actually spending time in the incredible cities of Shanghai, Hong Kong and Tokyo. The Disney parks are fantastic and worth seeing, but if you're going all the way to those cities, you should see some of their cultural sites and attractions. HKDL...

    Universal Studios Japan

    Japan is an incredible place to visit, and I would put USJ pretty far down the list. Kyoto is a short 30 minute train ride from Osaka and has countless amazing things to see and do. If you go to Tokyo and have time for a theme park, make it Tokyo DisneySea. It's absolutely worth the time you'd...

    Universal Studios Japan

    USJ is similar in layout to USF. Imagine USF with the biggest crowds you can possibly imagine, and you're close. Do NOT visit without purchasing Express Passes in advance, and do not go on a weekend. Express Passes will not be available the day you go (they always sell out) and lines for most...

    OT: Weight Loss

    That is awesome! Were you using a particular program or protocol, or going it on your own?

    Brother is a Cast Member (discount!!) - GF or Contemp?!

    I'd go with the Grand for all four nights. It's much more beautiful and welcoming than the stark Contemporary and there's plenty to do with the pools and the Magic Kingdom 30 seconds away by monorail. Garden view rooms are beautiful -the whole place is just enchanting. There's a reason why it's...

    World of Color

    We loved the picnic meals, and I loved my cold fried chicken. Got great seats for the show as well - very economical option for someone who doesn't want to take out a second mortgage for a non-character dinner at DCA.

    10/27 mnsshp

    The MVMCP crowds were better, but the ones I've attended we're early in the season. I wouldnt say it's a fair comparison to another party 4 days before its holiday. Tonight did not feel like sales were limited. It just felt packed.

    10/27 mnsshp

    Just got back to the resort from tonight's party. It felt packed all night, right down to 12am. This was my first MNSSHP, but I've done MVMCP 2x, both in mid-November. Night and day difference in crowds. That said, we had a great time. Villains show was fun (was 1st in line for the mistress...

    Voices of Liberty "In Rehearsal" this week??

    The lying comment was meant to be tongue-in-cheek; I'm sure Steve didn't post that just to get at me. ;) Thanks for the tip on the 30th! :)

    Voices of Liberty "In Rehearsal" this week??

    I know this is petty/fanboyish of me, but looking at http://www.wdwent.com/, it lists NO showtimes for the Voices of Liberty this week! We're flying in on Tuesday, and the Voices are my favorite thing about Epcot. I've never seen them not on the schedule before. Can someone please tell me that...

    Port Orleans Riverside or Pop?

    While we found POR to be lovely, the bus stop situation was a nightmare. One bus with five stops - if you were unlucky enough to be in a building at the last stop, good luck getting on a bus. Swore off the moderates after that trip - the jump in the cost doesn't justify the miles of walking to...

    Halloween 2011 Magic Kingdom-WDW

    The only trick or treating available on Halloween will be at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party (MNSSHP), which will also be available on several other nights at the Magic Kingdom. You have to purchase a separate ticket to attend the party - http://disneyworld.com/halloween We'll be there at...

    When Does MSEP Head Back to Land?

    It has been rumored for some time that it will go back to DLR in 2012, though whether it will land in the new DCA or DL itself is unknown. With World of Color's huge success and all the new additions to DCA, if it returns I would think it would be at DL. Time will tell!

    Will This Costume Be A Problem For MNSSHP?

    We've never been to MNSSHP and are going on 10/27, but don't want to spend money a costume that will get us turned away at the gates. My wife is thinking of going in the new Miss Scissorhands costume, which you can see at this link...

    American Idol Experience showtimes when DHS closes at 7pm?

    It's summer right now so I can't seem to locate a show schedule for DHS for off-peak times. Can anyone tell me what time the finale show happens for AIE on days when the park closes at 7pm? Is it moved up to 6 or do they start it at park closing? I know this is random, but I'm planning on...

    Best "In-Character" Stories

    Staying at POP, Eating at GF...how do I get back after park closing?

    We have a rather late booking at Narc's on a night when the parks will not be open past 9pm. How do we get back to Pop Century? Do I have to get a cab? Thanks for your help!

    Can I see your Disney Wedding Bouquet?

    We had a whimsical bouquet which my wife arranged to her specifications....sorry it's not a true close-up. It was STUNNING, and very heavy. :)
