I will have to tell you about our great deal when we went to Universal in 2007. We lived in FL in 1973-1975 about 75 miles from Disney (HOT DISNEY I and I don't mean just the weather). We have terrific friends that we still visit every year. My daughter and her boyfriend wanted to go to...

I guess that means he will get all those "acitve duty" perks at Disney..well at least he will get the true discount tickets from Disney.

We ate a the Coral Reef so long ago it wouldn't even count for a review. I do remember thinking I was spoiled to fresh fish (caught and cooked on the boat in the Gulf), but we got preferential seating next to the glass. That was in 1987 and the kids still remember sitting "front row" watching...

I am probably not right about this but I was reading Akershus menu (EPCOT, Norway) and I think I remember it saying something about recognizing special events. I'm not sure that includes cakes etc. It might be something to look into. I am planning a trip for my grandkids for August 2010...

:furious: :cool: :Pinkbounc I'm Green

Buy? Heaven's no. :lmao: :lmao: We are retired teachers and live the life of self-imposed abject poverty ($34,000annually). :teacher: Even though we lived about 80 miles from DisneyWorld for a couple of years, we have stayed in the park only one time in 1987 (Poly). The other visits have...

We stayed on site at Pacific resort in US. I wouldn't think of staying off site. The FP really really works. It well worth the money. I am not sure if the express pass you but at the park works the same way or not. We bought the park tickets before we went to the park. That saves some time...

Oh we do the beach, mostly on the gulf. Actually we don't do the beach, we do the water. We don't spend any money for hotels. We lived in FL in 1973 (in the Disney beginning) so we have close friends in that area. We go down every year for Sports Scallloping season. It is my favorite...

If you stay in one of the on site hotels you can easily do both parks in 1 day. Actually you can do both parks, go back to the hotel, swim, take a nap and eat in the park restaurants (you get preferential seating with your room key.), ..All between check in and check out. AND we went in peek...

I have read so much about buying points for the Disney Vacation Club. Is it as good a deal as people say? Upside. .It seems that the $$ spent on the rooms may be cheaper, Downsize ..no cancellation, no refunds. Any thoughts/experience? I figure I will get good advice from you veterans that...

We go to Chickamauga Ga as often as we can. My husbands parents have a little place on the boundry line of the Chickamauga Battlfield. Literally on the boundary line. We just walk out the dirveway, cross the road and we are in the park. They have such wonderful free programs just about every...

Not too sure where to post this. What about VerizonWireless phone reception in the park?

You have given me the validation I needed. I thought we would need to get 3 rooms. I didn't know they didn't count 1yr olds. We are very friendly so 5 to a room wouldn't be a problem. The last time we stayed in Disney was 1987. The only choice for on site were the Poly and Cont. The...

I have not intention of trying to be a tour guide. As far as I am concerned it's every man for himself. I want to make sure the grandkids have a good time. Actually I am not planning to go anywhere except the Magic Kingdom, and probably won't get far out of Fantasyland. I don't know...

I have been reading about the DVC but I'm not quite sure how it works. I think the Contemporary Resort is suppose to have villas open in Sept. but I don't know if it will be with the DVC or not. I have rented vacation rentals with VRBO and have been very pleased. I hope some "Old Timers"...

Thanks I was wondering if the "speed boat" was close to the cabins. About how long does it take to walk to the boat? Do you know how often the boat runs?

I was wondering what would be the best strategy for planning our stay at the DisneyWorld resorts. There will be 8 adults and 3 children (1,4,7). We would like to stay 3-4 days and naturally want the biggest bang for our bucks. I think with young children we need to have direct access to...

Thanks I've just been flipping around on the boards. There is Sooo much information that I don't know where to start. We lived in FL in 1973 so we served out time "on the battleline" at Disney. We have visited several times since then but the last time was in 1987. So I guess you would...

Just wanted to say hello. I wanted to find the best place to find all the tricks when we visit DinseyWorld. This seems to be the place. party:
