We just got back from IOA and I have a 7 yr old son in Grade 1. He's 49 inches tall and loves rides. He was able to do the castle ride and he adored it. We all did. It was fantastic. But if your child doesn't like coasters, motion simulator rides or 3D images then this isn't for them. We did...

We are currently looking at buying a small (50pt) DVC contract. We want to pay cash and that's what we are comfortable with for the time being. We've done Disney for the last 3 years and plan on taking a break next year. So the next time we'll be back is 2012. We figure we'll do Disney every...

Day 11 Castaway Cay Spolier Alert : WE MADE IT!!! Ok, so the one bad thing about being in an inside stateroom is that you don’t know what the weather is like when you wake up. You have to wait for everyone to be up showered, teeth brushed and dressed before you get your first glimpse. So...

DAY 10 Nassau Day Woke up nice & early and headed to breakfast at Beach Blanket. Nice breakfast selection and a fresh omelette/egg selection. I was dreading the coffee based on what everyone says but it wasn’t terrible. Percolated coffee is percolated coffee imho. Right after breakfast...

DAY 9 – To the WONDER!! The day started grey & cloudy – it looked like the sun might pierce through at certain points but it was not to be. Continental Breakfast was included at the hotel and after we went to check out the Cocoa Beach Pier. We walked to the end and made friends with all...

Hello again! Apologies for the rather long departure. Turns out Disney keeps you way too busy on a cruise to write a trip report. We had a wonderful time so here are the updates from day 8, 9, 10 and 11! DAY 8 – To The Beach After a busy early morning of laundry and packing, we left...

Day 7 MK Its now Saturday morning and we are checking out of WH this morning and heading to Cocoa Beach for the day/night before our cruise on Sunday. Definitely getting excited for some R&R. DisneyWorld vacations are great but they certainly aren’t restful. Plus this is the first year our...

Day 6 Animal Kingdom aka could it get any colder? Ok I think it was about 10 degrees (Celsius) this morning when we left the condo. Pants/sweaters and windbreakers were the order of today. And it’s a really humid cold too. All of our hands felt really clammy and cold in the morning, not...

Day 5 MK or should I say the Lion’s Den… Alarm went off at 6:30, out the door by 7:15 as planned. Pulled into MK parking at 7:25. First row parking ! Its amazing how the little things give us so much pleasure!! :cool1: Kids were glad to be on the Monorail again and we were at the gates at...

You might be absolutely right! When our FG said the new cruise ship, I assumed the Dream because the Fantasy dates just seem so far away. Although I did say "the Dream" and she said yes. Mmm well I don't want to mislead anyone so I think I'll go ahead and update the title of this thread to BBB...

Ah ha! Now I get it... Its not just me thinking wow its really busy here. I went over to Touringplans and this week has all been upgraded to 10's. 10's!!! Ugh :scared1:. How did I manage to pick the week with 10's and we are headed into the Lion's Den (MK) tomorrow. Ok chin up here's the...

Here now as well and yes its pretty crazy. This is our 3rd March vacation and by far the busiest. I said to DH, if this is a 7, I hate to see what a 9 or 10 look like !

I was at the Downtown Disney location of Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique today with my DD and there was this man being given a tour by the "boss". Our Fairy Godmother told us he was going to be running the new BBB on the new cruise ship and he was checking things out and getting the lay of the land...

Day 4 Tues Mar 16 Today was an easy day. We figured after an evening of Fantasmic followed by a day of Epcot that everyone would be tired. It was nice having a relaxing day. I had hoped today would be a swimming day. DH and DS got in the water for about 2.5 seconds and then got out. I think...

Day 3 We made it to Epcot for 9am and went to Spaceship Earth first. This was my first time on the ride, last year the family with the IL did it while I went to get the Soarin FP’s. I love this ride. Really very cool and the bit at the end on the screen is hilarious. DD thought it was awesome...

DAY 2 In the light of day of condo looks great! It’s a 3 bdrm in Windsor Hills not to far from the main pool and very “disneyfied” which is great. DS came pitter pattering into our room at 7:20 this morning. 6:20am old time which is pretty standard. 10 minutes later DD came in. We are a get...

Ahhhh naptime. It really is a beautiful thing. I think I shall be very sad when our naptime days are over. So I better get started on this live trip report :cool1:. We left Montreal at 2pm yesterday. Plan was to let the kids nap in the car on the way to Plattsburgh. They did but woke up...

The PLAN: Sat Mar 13: Leave Montreal:banana: We are flying out of Plattsburgh with Allegiant. You really can't beat the price (got the 2 week car rental as part of the package too). It irks me that I live 10 minutes away from the Montreal airport but the Canadian taxes on flights are...

Welcome one and all! I’ve never done a trip report but thought I might give it a whirl this time seeing as how I really enjoy reading others trip reports on here. I’m also going to attempt this “live”…Please pardon my rather lame title but I know when I read a TR I’m always looking for the...

Like everyone else about to head down, I am anxiously watching the weather. I am preparing myself to a jean/sweater vacation but am hoping for some warm Florida sunshine! Has anyone been in the last month or so and can you comment on whether the main pool at WH was heated enough to swim? I...
