    Matching T-shirts. Opinions, please.

    There was nothing runde in my comments. I described what I think when I see someone in matchy clothes, and thus why I do not do it. I did not call them names, I did not laugh at them, I simply said that if they were uncomfortable with it, do not force them to do it. There have to be things...

    Matching T-shirts. Opinions, please.

    I did not read most of the posts, but I am one that would never in a million years wear matching clothes. Matching is something people do with their twin 3 year old girl's. To me it gives the appearance that the man in his group has replaced his mother with his wife, and both pick out his...

    Rose & Crown Seating

    We have dinner reservations for Rose and Crown in June. As far as seating goes, it is our preference to sit out on the back overlooking the water. When I made the ADR, the cast member told me that she could not take seating requests. I assume when I arrive I can make this request. We have a...

    Magical Express is one of the reasons we have gone back lst few years. The last trip we took that involved an outside transportation company, we waited forever for a bus and it cost a fortune.

    Has anyone been to WDW in august?

    We went to Disney as part of my son's Make-A-Wish trip in August 2005. We were allowed to skip every line in the park, including cutting to the front of Character lines. Even with these advantages - it was way too hot. We could hardly breathe. We still had fun, but almost every one of our...
