    About to call off my whole trip over the dining UNFAIRNESS

    I agree - in my experience I always "round up" if there is an odd number for meals to prevent 3 adults being squashed onto a table for 2. And I may arrive with one less or one extra. The restaurant staff will always adjust as they go along for party size to maximise revenue. It may just take a...

    Problem with system logging me out

    I've just lost another reply - I did 2 with no problem, then got logged out, although the banner at the top was still showing my name as logged in. When I refreshed the screen, as I was requested to do, I lost the post. It's too long to retype, so the poor Brit will never know why it's better to...

    Getting to Shula's from OKW ?

    You can valet at the Dolphin free if you're dining - I only found that out last Christmas after walking in very silly shoes from a distant parking lot. We ate at the Blue Zoo, btw, which was excellent.

    Problem with system logging me out

    Help! This has happened every time I've tried to post. I log in, get "Welcome, lynda1212" displayed, then compose a reply to a thread. When I hit submit, I get told to refresh the screen and log in. "Welcome lynda1212" is still showing. I've just lost a post that took me about 30minutes to...

    ILLUMINATIONS CRUISES-What they are--How to book--FIND ONE TO SHARE

    I've just been lucky enough to book Breathless II for an Illumnations cruise in August :banana: I was quoted $275 + tax + tip. My question, being a Brit and therefore a novice at tipping, is do I tip at 15%-20% as I would in a Disney restaurant? Or is the expection different for this type of...

    Just avoid anything made with Monin mixers, unless you like REALLY sweet drinks.

    Do you complain about bad food?

    I always talk to the server and the manager if on the very rare occassion I get bad food, or even if something doesn't live up to expectations - the manager is normally very interested in guest comments. On the flip side - I always praise the server and manager on excellent food too - that's...

    Help me find a Restaurant?!?!

    I agree with the Coral Reef - but if your wife doesn't like seafood, how about Liberty Tree Tavern. Comfort food and good for the smaller children but still feels "special"

    Monin mixers in cocktails

    Does anyone else hate this change in the lounges? Cocktails are so sweet now, I can't drink them any more - I always check with the barkeeper to find out id Monin is used before I order now. :mad: I'd happily pay more to get a properly mixer Mojito or Long Island Iced Tea. Thank...

    Boma or Chef Mickey's for breakfast?

    Boma - no question - I'd only consider Chef Mickey's if I had children with me, and then for the characters not the food or ambience.

    Jikos: Yea or Nay?

    We love Jiko - great food - the steak is even better the California Grill. We always eat there at least once each trip, as well as California Grill, Citricos and Fying Fish Cafe. :thumbsup2 We always request our favorite server - Marty - he is simply the best, he makes every visit special...

    What do you do about groceries at Vero Beach?

    We only buy coffee, milk and OJ from the resort shop when we stay at VB - Shutters and the pool bar serve such good food, we don't need anything else!

    What do you do on your first night

    We pick up the hire car, get to the resort about 5:30-6pm, have a light meal at a nice restaurant, buy basic supplies from the resort shop, walk back to the room, unpack and sleep at around 9am. Yes - we wake up at about 5am - but we catch the sunrise, have coffee and OJ on the balcony and...

    Pool Hopping

    If you log into dvcmember.com, find "Member Perks", "Recreation", "Water Activities", you'll find the rules but the blackout dates are for 2007. :rolleyes: The latest DisneyFILES magazine lists the 2008 blackout dates on page 28, but not the rules.. So, here are both, in one place for you ...

    Keys to the Kingdom Tour

    I did the tour a couple of years back and my husband did it last Christmas. We both really enjoyed it - especially going into the tunnels. I got to see the parade performers as they finished their performance - he got to see some characters. Getting close to the Spectromagic floats was also an...

    BV without a car?

    As a Brit, I would never do a holiday at WDW without a car, it's too limiting. I like to do other things when I'm there - visiting the shopping malls :cheer2: , for example, or visiting Kennedy Space Centre. There are only two of us, so we rent a compact car, although it would still be fine...
