    Help with hotel choices

    Have you considered the Best Westerns? (I can't remember if Park Vue is a BW) We stay at either the Best Western Park Place (same location as Park Vue - right at the crosswalk) or the Best Western Anaheim Inn. Park Place offers a continental breakfast that we weren't impressed with and they...

    Amazing Adventures of the 2012 Disney Mom's Panel

    Well, there go my chances! :mad: I misread it and used question 6 (the resort question) to answer question 5 beyond the actual answer selection. Oh, well....best of luck to everyone else!

    Amazing Adventures of the 2012 Disney Mom's Panel

    Um....I didn't get a question about Resorts. :scared1: I had one on Pirates League, one on "off the beaten path at DLR" (with a factual tidbit to answer as well) and one on where I get my information and how I share it. I checked that I was answering for both WDW & DLR, so maybe that...

    These are great! :love: And just in time, too - we leave on Saturday! Thank you! I'll see which ones the kids like best. One of them will match a t-shirt I'm making for DD.... I had another request for a Pirates design pirate: - but I figured one out that I like, so don't worry about that...

    Milliepie ~ DISign thread part 2 ~ *Please read 1st post updated 2/28/2011*

    Millie, I have one more request - this one is for a t-shirt. Can you do something with Pirates/Christmas that says: Yo Ho Ho Ho a Santa's Life for Me. Maybe the Piratescarribeanbanner one (4shared in Pirates) Christmas-fied or the potcskullswords one (4shared in Pirates) with a Santa...

    Milliepie ~ DISign thread part 2 ~ *Please read 1st post updated 2/28/2011*

    Hi, Millie! I saw that you do journal pages and I was wondering if you could do something similar for me. I am looking for a page that would work as a letter to Santa for the kids to take to Disneyland when they see him. There are a few graphics I like - the candy cane 2010, the Santa wreath...

    Amazing Adventures of the 2011 Disney Mom's Panel

    :thumbsup2: I don't think we're going this year, but we've always stayed right on the corner of 17th street on the penninsula. Love the location - far enough from Newport Pier that we don't get the fishy smells, but not so close to Balboa that we have to pay those prices! :lmao: You'll love...

    Amazing Adventures of the 2011 Disney Mom's Panel

    The non-Disney place we go (for the past 3 years) has been a condo on the beach in Newport Beach, CA in the summer.:cloud9: It's only 15 minutes from Disneyland and though we've only been to the park on one of those trips (our annual Disneyland trip is in Dec), we always head to Downtown Disney...

    Just wanted to post here, too, thanks for the photos, Mindi! And thanks, Michelle, for pointing her in the right direction. The other couple with us in the picture are my in-laws.... So I found out on Friday that the teacher's assistant in Josh's class used to work at Kennedy Space Center and...

    Hey all! We arrived home safe and sound, if a little bummed that we're no longer sailing with Mickey and friends. But, the plus side is we made some great friends along the way. I'm just sorry I didn't get a chance to meet more of you in person (and I didn't even win anything at the darn spa...

    Rules for the Adults

    I'm having great fun reading these and, like many here, consider a lot of these to be common sense. It's amazing that so many of these are prompted by real-life examples! In counterpoint, though, my own: - If a child is throwing a tantrum (no matter if full-blown or just whining), reserve...

    MIL has been dying to do an Alaskan cruise, so we currently have 2 verandahs on hold from yesterday. However, the price is just so HIGH and the cruise doesn't necessarily hit the places I want to go. In terms of priorities, I don't think sailing with Disney will trump the other aspects this...

    Cruise Magnet Graphics and Links - part 2

    I wonder how it would look if the clouds had a Mickey shape to them/it? Looking at it, I see the teeniest hint of it now and that got me wondering....

    Alaska cruisers - you MUST have passports to fly from Vancouver to the US!

    I don't know that I'd say if you can afford to cruise then you can afford a passport. However, I agree with the sentiment - perhaps just rewording it that the cost of a passport should be budgeted into your cruise costs and planned accordingly. In light of spending $4-8K on this Alaskan cruise...

    ~~~ Help-October vs. November on the Wonder?

    To add some counterpoint to this discussion: We sailed in early December and we were very warm at WDW and loved the weather on the ship (3 day, so Nassau and CC). So, it's really just a hit or miss on if you get an exception to the "it's always warm" rule. Weather is also relative. On our...

    Cruise Magnet Graphics and Links - part 2

    In honor of my father's favorite ending to every holiday speech he makes: It doesn't get any better than this! (I put this on a nighttime shot of the Magic on the water) To jordak, milliepie and TJ: If I didn't do so properly before, I wanted to say THANKS! for your work. We set sail on...

    I use "Heather Countdown" (like Disney Math) for the trip. We leave on Thursday morning, but Wednesday will be dedicated to packing and all of that - so I'll be in "vacation mode" by then (and on Wednesday, I don't think "one more day" I think "TOMORROW!"). So, I only have 2 days left! 2...

    Well, they also didn't used to openly talk about the rotations and such, but they did when I called Castaway Cay. I know I requested to NOT be in AP on night 2 (Key West), so that we didn't miss the show (it wasn't working well our last cruise, so we've not truly seen it yet). I thought, with...
