    Budget Car hire

    I'm in Orlando at the moment with a Budget car booked through US rentacar. I got the upgrade no problems and have a brand new Pontiac. The whole thing including queuing at MCO took about 10 minutes ( about 16.30 on a Tuesday afternoon) so very much reccommended!!

    WDW guide books.

    I think the unofficial guide to Walt Disney World has just about everything you could want to know and it's written in a very easy to read style. It could take you some years to read!!! (due to it's size) Buy it discounted from Amazon or play.com.

    Here Now And Boy Is It Crowded!!!

    I went to Epcot yesterday (15th) and Animal Kingdom today and to be honest it wasn't too bad. 30 mins for Everest at midday, Soarin' was probably the longest at about 60 mins midday ish. For anyone due to travel soon, the weather is great, about 80 - 85 in the day and 65 to 70 in the evening...

    Virgin refund

    Just a reminder that if you ever have to cancel a 'non refundable' flight you can still claim back all the taxes etc. I recently had to do this and for a 370 pound flight got 250 back.

    School Breaks in October

    Leicestershire break up Fri 17th for a week, Northants one week later. Varies quite a bit county by county. Some get 2 weeks, most still get one.

    Eating at Universal/HRH

    If you are staying onsite at Universal you get preferential treatment for seating. Unless you are going at very busy times a day or two in advance is fine. The 2 Emeril restaurants are an exception where I would book as far ahead as possible.

    Eating at Universal/HRH

    The Kitchen is pretty good in the evening as well. Loads of places at City Walk,(5 mins walk from hotel) depending on your taste. Hard Rock Cafe, Forrest Gumps and Bob Marleys are all good IMO. Walk up to the Portofino one day for a nose round and maybe dinner at Mamma Dellas or, if you're...

    What ride do you dislike the most at MK?

    Astro Orbiter and tea cups. Both for the same nauseous reason!!

    MNSSHP on Columbus Day?? Bad Choice??

    The nights BEFORE the schools are off are the busy ones. My guess would be that MK will be heaving during the day but that MNSSHP will not be too busy. Even if it's a sellout it shouldn't be too bad as they limit the amount of tickets sold.

    Resort for solo adult

    Another option would be to stay at one of the many hotels on Palm Parkway or near the Crossroads centre. There are many restaurants at all price levels within easy walking distance. Most of the hotels run some sort of shuttle service to Disney and, because you are close to Disney, a cab wouldn't...

    Discovery Cove help and advice.

    We have done it twice and really enjoyed both times. It is a really good idea to book this for a day the other parks are busy (Saturday or a public holiday perhaps) as it never gets crowded. I would endorse what others say about arrivng early, although they will allocate you a time for the...
