    Bag Security Lines

    Went to all 4 parks from 4/22-4/26, each about 30 min to an hour after opening. Security line was about 15 minutes at each one. I was randomly selected for the metal detector at EPCOT, and that only took about a minute, maybe two.

    Best travel agent?

    I used Small World Vacations for my last trip 7 years ago. They were very helpful and friendly so I'm using them again for our trip in April. http://www.smallworldvacations.com/

    Afternoon tea at the Grand Floridian?

    Here's what the menu I saw had, which was consistent with what I remembered we had: cucumber with watercress shrimp salad with dill chicken salad with almonds grilled pear with gorgonzola egg salad If you have any food allergies or even a concern with the ingredients, the chef will...

    GF Afernoon Tea

    I took DW and DD7 to this last week and it was great. Definitely get reservations well in advance because the room is small and nobody is in much of a hurry. The latest I could book ours was 3:50 and we didn't end up leaving there until well after 5:00. Somehow, the time just flew by though...

    The New 2008 Beach Club and Yacht Club FAQs thread

    The suggestion I've seen most is to request a room with a view of the wedding gazebo. If you get one, you're at least guaranteed not to have a view of a parking lot. Also, some of the standard rooms viewing the gazebo may actually have slight water views since they're on that side of the hotel...

    Discover???

    I booked through a travel agent, not directly through Disney, but I would think it's essentially the same thing. I used Discover for the initial deposit and the balance. They also tied it to the Key To The World card while we were there. So they definitely take it.

    The New 2008 Beach Club and Yacht Club FAQs thread

    We were at the YC from 10/30-11/3. I booked a standard room, but requested a view of the wedding gazebo, as suggested by many here. They gave me this: Don't know if it was a mistake or an upgrade but I wasn't about to complain. It was room 4131 if you're looking for it. Great room! And it...

    Mnsshp 10/30

    We waited about 15 min to see Jane and Terk from Tarzan but saved Mickey and friends for the character greetings at Epcot, which worked out much better. Walked on It's A Small World, waited about 10 min for Winnie the Pooh. DD7 loved the dance party at Ariel's Grotto. We left just before the...

    Is right now swimming weather in disney?

    DD7 insisted on swimming Fri night and Sat night after our day in the parks. It was probably in the 60s. We were in the sand bottom pool at Stormalong Bay and the water itself was very warm. It was great until we had to get out!

    Looking for the perfect camera bag, or bag that just so happens to hold my camera

    I just bought this last week. It should hold all that stuff but it's not as stylish as the others.

    Okay, based solely on DIS reviews......

    We're doing the same thing right before MNSSHP.

    The old tiki room

    I can't say it was my favorite attraction, but there's something to be said for a show where I can still remember the "In the Tiki Tiki Room" song after having seen the show only once 12 years ago.

    What's in those GIANT backpacks??

    The really giant backpacks actually contain a completely separate theme park, in case the wearer gets bored with the one they're in.

    Baggellini type bag for a man ?

    I'm looking to get one of these for myself: http://www.rei.com/product/733023 I have an older Eagle Creek bag and it's great, but somewhat smaller than this one, so I thought I'd try something slightly larger. Seems masculine enough though. :)

    Suggestions for 1.5 year old on plane

    Another recommendation here for getting a separate seat for him if you can. Yes, it costs more, but for us it was more than worth avoiding the hassle of sitting DD on our laps. A separate seat gives them their own space and is probably safer too! You also get extra room for a carryon to store...

    Where are you eating on the eve of MNSSHP?

    How many NOT doing MNSSHP because of the cost?

    I've never been to MNSSHP and haven't been to DisneyWorld since 1996 and don't know when we'll be back. And we're there during Halloween so DD7 will be missing Trick or Treating at home. So for us, it seemed like the natural thing to do. We got our tickets today for 10/30 while making our ADRs.
