    online check in?

    I've used it as a Canadian so I'm not sure that's the case, my experience is its quite the opposite of the case in fact. Though the damned thing barely seems to function for a lot of people regardless of residency so who knows. :rotfl2:

    Wild africa trek?

    A "little" closer is a significant understatement. You're really close to everything, sometimes too close if you happen to have a fear of a given animal. A little boy on the tour I was on was afraid of hippos, deathly afraid, needless to say he never made it past the first stop. That said its...

    Super Bowl at MK

    If by some chance the Ravens win they'd most likely be having the parade there in the MK the next day, something to think about. "I'm going to Disney World!" I was there a few years back for the Saints victory parade, had watched the game the day before at the Carribean Beach pool, they set up...

    Beverly at Club Cool

    Didn't read my post huh? The red color comes from the alcohol used it it. Alcoholic soda kind of isn't prevelant on this side of the world.

    Beverly at Club Cool

    They've never heard of it in Italy because it's not CALLED Beverly in Italy. Well strictly speaking the Coke version is, but the Coke version is rarer then you'd think. Campari has been making "Campari Soda" for over 80 years in Italy and this is the drink Beverly attempts to imitate. Why do...

    Oh how I hate the Disney Entitled

    It doesn't classify as an "entitled" story I suppose but I have one that is both appaling and funny at the same time. In late August (hurricane season as is, but also rainy season where storms are severe in Florida even if short) a few years back I was staying at POP in one of the 80s rooms...

    Blizzard Beach ~ bathing suit requirement

    It's legal in Ontario and probabbly some other provinces in Canada as well. The fact is the rules of societal norms and the actual laws we have do not always mesh up.

    Avenger Monorail?

    To further this it actually CAN'T be on the Epcot loop. The contractual agreements between Marvel and Universal Studios Orlando prohibit Disney from using ANY Marvel character liscence WITHIN a Florida theme park. As the Epcot loop enters the actual park it's an impossability from a legal...

    Can you recommend anything to see or do in Future World besides Soarin and Spaceship

    Unless something has drastically changed it's actually only 8 drinks from around the world. Krest from Mozambique, Fanta from Costa Rica, Beverly from Italy, Mezo Mix from Germany, VegetaBeta from Japan, Kinley from Israel, Lift Apple from Mexico, and Smart Watermellon from China. The only...

    emailed a complaint- they want to call me?

    Because it's a fun ride with excellent theming? As a grown man who's taken several solo trips to Disney in the past I find this a tad bit insulting. Am I not entitled to enjoy an excellent ride too? Please think before you speak, Disney isn't "just for kids" you know. I would never ride with...

    Adults only resort on property

    :rotfl: But in Disney World everyone is a kid, so nobody could stay there. :rotfl: Seriosuly though, I'm not sure if it's the fact that I stay in the less popular resorts or if it's the times of year I go but I don't ever have any reason to complain about noisy kids at the resorts during an...

    So how do you get a character to ride an attraction with you?

    I think an interesting topic for a thread would also be WHO would you WANT to ride WHAT with if there was no restrictions based on geogrpahy in the park etc? For me it'd be Carousel of Progress with Alice. I'm friends with someone who is a "friend" of Alice and she's always spewing out the...

    Just returned from 2 weeks in Disney - Observations

    I loved Epcot when I was five and arguably there was much less to it in 1986. There is plenty to do at the Kidcott stops, lots to learn, the new Phineas and Ferb Agent P stuff, and plenty of fun rides, especially Imagination for kids. I'd say at the very least try and give it a half day look...

    TOP SECRET Ladies and gentlemens like the previous year MY FREE DINING NEWS

    Art of Animation Tour

    I'm not entirely sure it will. Disney has a history of allowing sister resorts access to each others pools. The two Port Orleans resorts for example, and AKLs two pools. It may well close off AoAs pools but I wouldn't say it's a certainty, unless it's been announced by Disney somewhere at...

    Can I have a dr. Pepper at Disney world?

    That's entirely possible, any trip we took after that we drove down so we had access to Publix or Wal-Mart to get drinks so we never went back to that Hess station and then as I mentioned earlier my wife stopped drinking pop in 2010 so we haven't had reason to anyway. Still, I have fond...

    Can I have a dr. Pepper at Disney world?

    I assure you I purchased Mountain Dew and Pepsi at that very gas station in August of 2005. Now whether it is officially "on property" or not is neither here nor there but in those days they DID sell Pepsi, my then new wife was adamant I get her some, and without a car I know for a fact it was...

    AP Question

    The wording on the pass is actually "valid through insert date here". All new not a renewal AP's are actually valid for 366 days from the date you activate the voucher despite being advertised as 1 year. This is to accommodate years like this year which have the extra day due to leap year status.
