    Any little extras that people dont know about in general?

    If you take your Duffy on a stick to each countries kidcot table they will write your child's name on back in that countries native language, plus stamp it. Japan has tiny saki cups for purchase and you can have your name written on that in Japanese. Either Japan or China has a woman who spins...

    My 5 yr old son is named Avery Elvis. We also liked the names Finn, Gideon, Lennon, Ren, and Gavin.

    Random Question just for Fun

    I love most accents. English, Scottish, Irish, French, Italian, so on... To me it seems romantic. I wonder though if I was abroad would people think the same of my American accent. I'm from Baltimore, MD and I try NOT to have a "Bawlmer" accent. Many of us say "yous guys" instead of "you guys"...

    Random Question just for Fun

    I love some of the lingo the English use vs. the lingo Americans use. For example, the English say "My child is attending University" instead of "college". They say "I was on holiday" instead of "vacation". They say "bullocks" which sounds so much nicer than our American alternatives. (hee...

    Will my iPad be safe in the parks??

    Why take an iPad? You can just put the Disney app on your phone. Personally I wouldn't want to carry the iPad around with me all day. Just one more thing to worry about. While we are waiting in one line, I pull out my phone and check wait times for next ride (if rides is typically known for long...

    Driving to parks vs. resort bus

    We took buses 2 yrs before we had our son. Then we've driven our car the next 10 yrs. I will never take a bus again. It's so convenient getting in car and not having to wait. And dealing with stroller on tram is a piece of cake. I hold my son's hand and get him on tram, while my husband folds...

    am I being fair ?

    Also wanted to add that I'm not trying to sound mean. Just giving my opinion. I hope you and family come to some sort of resolution that works for everyone. : )

    am I being fair ?

    I think you are being unfair. I think your husband should be able to take the kids to Disneyland with the rest of his family. It is unfortunate that you won't be able to go too, but that's just how things went this time. After your son/daughter is born, you guys can plan to take another vacation...

    Figment and Captain EO opionions

    I think both attractions are the worst Disney has to offer. Those plus the water pageant parade. Now my 5 year old son, on the other hand, loves Figment and the water pageant. Everything else with Disney is A-OK!!!! Love vacationing there every year.

    Buyer's Remorse?

    We go once a year for the past 12 years and have been there different times of the year. We have never had a bad experience with a CM, nor have we ever had a ride break down and close. There are times when a ride is closed for rehab which is understandable to keep them safe. Crowd levels depend...

    Tower of Terror for 4 year old

    My son rode it at age 3 and again at 4. He loved it so much that we rode multiple times in a row. AND I'm with you...I think it's the scariest ride in Disney, but it's also my favorite.

    I need help, we are celebrating my sons first birthday and my 35th in 2 weeks in WDW.

    I would get your son the Mickey ears which has the birthday hat and have his name embroidered across the back. Also one night at dinner order him a birthday cake or maybe a cupcake dessert in which you can stick in a candle and sing Happy Birthday to him. If you do the whole birthday cake I...

    Which park to skip with 3 year olds?

    I would skip Epcot. I love it there, but if you need to skip one park for your 3 year old this would be the one. The other parks offer a lot for toddlers as follows: Magic Kingdom - no brainer. This park is a MUST DO!! Animal Kingdom - the trails for viewing animals, the Nemo musical...

    Toddler Harness-To leash or not to leash

    When my son was 2 and 3 we used a harness at Disney World. We did not get any dirty looks. We bought a harness from Target that looked like a plush monkey backpack. It was very cute. My son loved it, because it was like having a little stuffed animal friend with him. We actually saw several...

    Changes To Haunted Mansion after the Movie?

    I'd say you are both right. You are right because the things you remember as a child are still there. Your boyfriend is right because changes were made since the movie, however I don't think the changes reflect the movie at all. Yes, Madame Leoda in the crystal ball has always been there...

    Should I try to change my January 2013 dates? MLK week

    We arrived the Saturday before MLK Day (Monday) and it was crazy. There were so many people there. I was with my husband, son, MIL and FIL. During a parade we got seperated into 3 different groups. My husband and FIL got stuck inside the ice cream shop. I mean literally stuck. The crowd was so...

    Coral Reef: best time for diner in late Jan.

    My family of 3 loved the Coral Reef. (Me, husband and 3 yr old son). We were lucky enough to be seated right next to the aquarium. A huge sea turtle swam right over and sat next to the glass where my son was seated. Then they had divers in the tank (think it was a tour) and when the divers...
