Thanks! I think driving would be better for us. Every extra minute means a lot that early in the morning.

This is our first Princess 10K experience. Our sister is running and me and our other sisters are cheering her on. We are staying at the Poly. We're not sure if we all should drive over in the morning; all of us take the bus, runner take the bus and cheering squad Drive over a little later...

Thanks everyone! I'm beginning to second guess our resort choice. It sounds like Boardwalk or one of the Clubs might be the better choice. We're at the Poly right now. Animus, thanks so much for the map and guide from last year. That is very helpful. Do you remember when it was available...

My sister is running in her very first Disney Event, the Princess 10K. I will be tagging along to cheer her on. Can someone enlighten me as to what to expect as a spectator? Since it's just the two of us, I was going to take the bus with her in the morning. I know I will be there super...

Just off the 11/14 Dream. The hosts are Danny, Angeline, and Cheryl.

Wow! Our cruises are as close as close can get. Sorry we aren't on the same cruise and could help you out. Have a wonderful cruise and enjoy your cabana!

When is your cruise? It may be your lucky day. We booked our cruise late and the only Cabanas left were family ones, but I really wanted a SB one. If we're on the same cruise, I'm sure we can switch things around onboard. I'm on the 11/14 Dream.

I am bummed that the WDW/Central Florida trip is gone from the website. I was planning on taking the trip in the Fall of 2017. In the off chance that someone in the know reads this thread, here are my thoughts on what could be changed to make the itinerary more appealing. Pricing needs to be...

I was going to Waitlist for October 2017. I talked to ABD last week and I wasn't sure if I wanted to Waitlist or Not. I called back today to Waitlist and they told me they are no longer offering the Tour. I checked the Website and all the dates except for October 2016 are gone. They also...

Well, this is disappointing news. I'm guess I'm the odd man out as I was really excited to see the addition of the WDW Backstage Tour and planned to do it in the Fall of 2017. We took the California BM @ 5 years ago and had a great time. I had asked the Guides if there were plans to add an...

I've used Worldwide Limousine the past two years. They were fine. They are based in Miami. You may want to check with your hotel. They may have a preferred limo company/service they use and you may get a discount. That's how I found Worldwide. I had good service the first time, so I used...

Thanks everyone! It looks like the last dinner is the way to go. I'll bring notecards along just in case we want to be a little more personal in our "thanks".

We will be starting our first ABD next weekend, Backstage Magic. I'm OK with the tipping amount, but I'm unsure on how and when you tip. Is it like a cruise where you get envelopes near the end of the trip? Should I bring notecards and place the tips in them. Do we give the tips at the last...

Not to make your decision even harder, but since you want to see a little of LA, you might want to look into the Adventures By Disney Backstage Magic Tour. I'm a WDW Vet as well and will be taking taking my first trip to California via ABD in two weeks. You get a little taste of Hollywood...

Thanks for all the suggestions! I've decided to take a slightly avante garde approach and booked a private tour guide. It's either going to be a complete blast or an utter disaster. You get to customize where you want to go and how long. I turned over my list of "want to dos", with all the...

Thanks! I hope you had a wonderful trip. I'm compiling my list of places I'd like to see (if only DH would do his list) and trying to work out a plan. I'm even toying with the idea of a Private Tour for the day. Since we're unfamiliar with the area, I was thinking someone who knows the area...

Thank You all for the wonderful suggestions. The Farmer's Market could be a good start to our day. Since we'll be on East Coast time, I think we'll be able to get out and about earlier than we would normally do on vacation. Sayhello, thanks for the tidbits on the Adults Only trip. If your...

We will be staying at the Renaissance Hotel in Hollywood. We figured it was easier to book the pre-night stay at the same Hotel where we would be staying with ABD. I'm glad everything seems to be rather close. I'm not worried too much about traffic. Living in the Washington, DC suburbs...

DH and I will be on the Backstage Magic Tour at the end of October. Since we are from the East Coast, we're flying in on Saturday. We won't be arriving until late Saturday. Which leaves us most of the day on Sunday to explore. Having never been to California before, I'm not really sure how...

Thank you! It's much easier to use the Main Gate than trying to get from the resort to the International Gateway.
