    What Tennis Shoes?

    There is a store called 'the walking company' in my area. They have a machine that shows pressure points and possibly what orthopedic(?) inserts you can use in your tennies, or what new pair to purchase. Anyway, I purchased a pair of echo (the brand). It cost me about $115 but they are sooo...

    Are your gas stations beginning to limit the amount of gas you can purchase?

    They are reporting it on the local news and have signs at the gas stations to limit it to 10 gallons, but nothing to stop it. Our local news is now showing gas stations with long lines of cars. I have also heard some stations have increased their price per gallon $1.00. I am glad we filled up...

    bringing your own fridge

    I told my travel agent we were taking one down therefore did not need one requested. She did not say we could not do that so it must be ok. We are staying at the All Star Music.

    Expensive rooms at Disney

    I can see both point of views. We stayed at POR years ago and this time we are staying at ASM because I am trying to make this a budget vacation due to not knowing if we'll have jobs at the end of the year. Anywhoooo, if things go well and the bank survives this economic slowdown, I am...

    and I bet everyone else who reads your responses will be put at ease a little. I know some people still have the issue of flying into the area so we'll all keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best. Thanks again - the people at the Disboardsare the 'bestest'!!!

    Are the resorts built to withstand hurricanes?

    Hi - I am curious if the building codes are such that we would be safe in a Disney Resort during a hurricane? I know a lot depends upon the severity so this may be tough to answer. Also - if you are there during a hurricane do you stay in your individual room, do they move you to a central...
