    Character Store at Hilton Head...

    ..for the quick reply. I'll have to check it out soon. Joe

    Which restaurant for Candlelight Processional Package?

    ...well, I can't decide between Restaurant Marrakesh and San Angel. I enjoy them both about equally. The atmosphere in San Angel, though, simply can't be beat!!! However, Marrakesh is high underrated; the food there is excellent! Joe

    Character Store at Hilton Head...

    I know the Disney Store outlet store was closed months ago at the Hilton Head Outlet Mall, but it was my understanding that a store carrying WDW stuff would take its place. Have any fellow DVCers been to HH lately...and know whether a new store has taken the other's place? Thanks in...

    Another cut back at Disney World?

    ...CBR already *had* a sit-down restaurant called the Captain's Tavern, if I'm not mistaken. I've eaten there before (though the meal was disappointing). Granted, the servers scurry from the Food Court kitchens to bring your entrees to your table, but a table service restaurant has existed at...

    More results of cutbacks at WDW

    ...the cutbacks with air-conditioning. During my late May-early June trip, I, too, noticed the higher-than-normal temperatures in shops, restaurants, and attractions. Talk about a sure-fire way to turn guests off! I've come to expect essentially no air-conditioning in DAK, but in the other...

    Epcot Closings!

    ...to Another Voice--I enjoy reading his posts, and take them very seriously--his current response to this rumor is history-based, and does NOT refer to any current rumblings about an imminent Epcot closing. Hence, my point that NO ONE has referenced any specific source of this outlandish...

    Epcot Closings!

    ...that those who are promulgating this particular rumor have not given one small hint of their sources. Besides, we're quickly heading toward a season during which Epcot plays a huge role--i.e., Candlelight Processional, with its associated dinner packages. I would be very, very...

    New Attraction at D-MGM

    Just noticed on two sites (wdwmagic & Screamscape) that Disney has plans for the now-empty ABC Theater in the Studios. The sites report a similar attraction to the old Superstar Television, but using current ABC-TV productions. One site even says an opening as early as June 29 could happen...

    OK, so shoot us! Boma was not a high point.

    ...to admit that I thought less of Boma than (it seems) most people do. After sampling almost everything, I still didn't feel as though I'd had a very satisfying dining experience. None of the food really stood out, or impressed me. Perhaps next time, I'll try Jiko, as Andrew suggests. I...

    Which Resort to just hang out in?

    ...hangouts is the Grand Floridian. Just find one of those comfy chairs, do a little people-watching, and enjoy the pianist and jazz band. Then, when approached by a cast member serving drinks, order your favorite cocktail. As far as relaxation is concerned, it doesn't get better than this...

    One more ?

    Which resort are you referring to? It's my understanding that when you purchase refillable mugs, you're entitled to free refills at your resort's food court as often as you like. There *is* an extra charge, however, for the refillables at BoardWalk--I think it's around $1.10 per refill...

    Help!Splitting resort stay...????

    We did a similar thing from Coronado Springs and BoardWalk. With Express Checkout and having WDW transfer your luggage, you'll probably only invest about an hour (at least that was our experience) in the "move." On the morning of your checkout from Resort "A," simply pack your bags and call...

    ToT Rumor

    ...how many times did you ride it in the "Jumper's Seat" (the middle back seat with only a seatbelt)? :p (Okay, Okay, I only did it *once* in a row!!!) Joe ****"A WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORT OUTING" new travel guide***

    Now what about the prize at WWTBAM????

    If there's essentially no "Millionaire" taping on a regular basis, what will be the grand prize, I wonder, if someone at D-MGM attraction makes it to the 1,000,000 point level???? Joe

    What is replacing....

    We were at WDW during December (23-28), and saw it then. Won't visit again until the end of May. Joe ***"A WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORT OUTING" new travel guide***

    The Street Sees things looking up at WDW

    Reading these reports makes my heart soar! Perhaps we'll eventually stop hearing the belly-aching and see some action with attraction upgrades development. I want my BEASTLY KINGDOM!!! Joe

    What is replacing....

    ...the last time I was there, a sign in front of ABC Theater said the previous show was on "hiatus" while Disney worked to bring another show to the Theater "soon." Hopefully, they're not just b/s-ing us. Joe ***A Walt Disney World Resort Outing***New Travel Guide

    Mission:Space vehicles Spotted and a VERY IMPORTANT FYI!

    ...the Company's concern if the ride system is as revolutionary as I've heard through the "grapevine." Joe ***"A WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORT VACATION" NEW TRAVEL GUIDE***

    faxing room requests

    ...is that room assignments are done about 4 days in advance of arrival. We've used the "fax technique," and found it to work about 50% of the time. We are fairly convinced that email would not work as an effective tool for successfully requesting a room preference. Joe ***"A Walt Disney...

    Sneak Preview of Primevial Whirl

    ..for the review! How disappointing that it's not all that exciting. BTW, I read somewhere that there's a musical accompaniment to the ride. True or not? Thanks...Joe ***"A Walt Disney World Resort Outing" New Vacation Guide***
