It is very crowded for sure. I have done it three times since 1994... and will be going this year again. It is not the time frame to go with the goal of getting on every ride, seeing every parade, seeing every show and fireworks display. ( although that is certainly possible and we usually do...

I have been to Vero many times - always in summer months and I rarely had an issue booking a two bedroom. I have had challenges with the one bedroom though. We most often travel the last two weeks of August; in fact we will be there Aug. 17-24 in a 2 bedroom that I booked at the 7 month window!

It does get more challenging as the kids grow older when it comes to planning our vacations, doesn't it? I have three grown children, 28, 24, and 18. It has progressively become tougher as the older two have to juggle work schedules and try to fit in the time to vacation with us. When we went in...

The lamb shank is also very good. My husband, my son, and our friend order it every time we are there.

We are usually a party of 9 and have never had trouble getting on-site ressies when we arrive. Of course, it's always safe to do it early, but you should be fine. Have fun! We are going in August and can't wait!

Very touching story! It is such a beautiful gift when you can see that the joy in something is within you, not outside of you. My sister and her family had accompanied us on many, many trips to WDW. It was very difficult to go after she had passed away, but I am grateful that as I walk through...

Thrifty and Dollar had some great deals when we were there. Check them out.

We were there this week as well, although not as early as you. We arrived by about 9:30 each day and we were able to get on everything with wait times that were reasonable and normal. It is very much worth it!!! It was such a wonderful week and I totally enjoyed it too!

Just came back yesterday and I have to say that the crowds during Christmas week were tough. We are usually summer Disney people so we are no strangers to crowds there, but this week kept even me on my toes. I do have to say that the CM's did a remarkable job of keeping people organized and...

I had two of these lovely events. One was three years ago. It was horrible!! I could not open my eye at all. Light was intollerable. and I believe it was the most painful event of my life. I had to go every day for days and then weekly to the specialist and use two meds as well. It took 4 weeks...

I just turned in my Mazda CX 9 after three great years with it. I simply loved that car. It never saw the inside of the service dept. - not one time. As opposed to the Lincoln MKX that I just replaced it with . That car has been in 3 times in two months.... The CX 9 is a great crossover . Enjoy!

I went to see it shortly after I had packed up our home of 15 years and spent so many hours purging the kids' toys and stuffed animals. I could not stop crying! What a touching movie. I knew I was doomed the minute I saw the dog too! How cute that they showed him age along with the characters...

Dan, I too remember Sylvia and read each of your tribitute threads. I read them at the time not knowing why they touched me having never met Sylvia or you. In Oct. 2006, I lost my beloved sister to Breast Cancer too. Now I know why I read them. Watching you keep Sylvia alive in our DIS hearts...

When will we as a society start to value our older citizens as productive memebers of our community. So you go back to school at 40 something and you want to work for many more years. How wonderful that you will be fulfilled and the people you help will benefit too! Where is the negative. Why...

The most important thing for me is to allow myself to feel that sadness. It is real, it is the dominant feeling for the moment. There are the key words, " for the moment." It doesn't feel like it, but it will pass. You will always have those pangs of pain; they come with the love you feel. If...

I used a POD to finalize the move from our temporary rental to our new home in Oct. We had the POD delivered and I was able to take my time in filling it one box at a time for the last week we were in the rental. Then, when I was ready, I called for the pick up and it was delivered to my new...

Just finished reading the People magazine with all the articles on bullying. It really is a sad situation for a nation with so much diversity and so much history of trying to make differences accepted. We have legislated and talked for so long about " acceptance", but it is in our homes that the...

I hate fall so very much. I hate HW, which returns in the fall. I hate the naked trees at the end of the fall. I hate Halloween. I hate the cool weather. I hate winter and fall means winter is next. I am surely a summer girl.

I have a friend with who had a set of sextuplets after two sets of twins. When she was pregnant with the sextuplets, we did a lot of chatting. SHe really did not need too much help. Once the babies were born, I made sure I was a big part of the crew that was there to help. It was quite an...

Very complicated issue. I have lost everyone in my immediate family and after all this experience, I am SURE that I do not want any wake at all. I do not feel the least bit comforted by people coming to " pay their last respects" to the family in that setting. Additionally, I was quite annoyed...
