    Disney's Military Resort - Shades of Green - Opinions and Feedback?

    Shades of Green is one of the originals - the Disney Golf Resort. As such, it's about as classic as anything on the WDW property. Its location is excellent, it's uncrowded... *Sigh* My crazy MIL (who is civilian DoD) actually *prefers* the All-Star hotels, so that's where my husband and I...

    CR Fantasia gift shop - can contact directly?

    Hi, all. I just returned from WDW a couple days ago and am really regretting not making a purchase at the Fantastia gift shop in the Contemporary. The item is not available on any of Disney's merchandise web sites. I found it on a couple third-party web sites, but the price is (surprisingly)...

    Poor Customer Service at AK?

    Thanks to everyone who chimed in about bad experiences with CMs at AK (and especially the Conservation Station/Rafiki's Planet Watch) - it's good to see I'm not the only one. And Dsnygrl - I SO wish all the CMs were like you. Back in the "good old days" (I can't believe I'm already a curmudgeon...

    That one moment **TISSUE ALERT**

    Mine happened just last night! I was showing my husband the Contemporary (where we used to stay when I was a kiddie, along with the Polynesian), and right as we walked out the back doors towards the Bay Lake beach and docks, the Electric Water Pageant started! Oh my goodness, how I used to love...

    Poor Customer Service at AK?

    Hi all, just returned from a trip to WDW (my first since '87, when I was just 11 years old), and the changes left me sad. One of the biggies was how much less friendly the cast members seemed. Actually, the MK and Epcot cast members were perfectly acceptable most of the time, but, with few...

    T-shirts ok in water parks (to swim in)?

    Thanks everyone! :) This is great news. :yay: I actually ordered a surf shirt and board shorts to wear over my suit, but I had to send both of them back since they didn't fit and don't have time to go through that again before our trip. :( (We also live in an area with no stores that sell...

    T-shirts ok in water parks (to swim in)?

    Hi all - old threads on the water parks seem to imply that swimming with a t-shirt over your swimming suit is ok, but I thought I'd ask specifically. (I'm also going to call Disney.) I'm very modest. :blush: (I know that swimming in wet t-shirt (over your suit) isn't the most comfortable...

    ***2009*** Epcot Food & Wine Festival ENDED NOV. 8

    So the demos need to be booked in advance? How is this done? :confused3

    ***2009*** Epcot Food & Wine Festival ENDED NOV. 8

    Just a few questions : - Are advance registrations needed for the $8 Culinary Demonstrations/Wine Presentations or the free Authentic Taste Seminars? (And I'm assuming these are both held in the Festival Welcome Center, correct?) - Are all the Eat to the Beat! performances by a given band...

    Anyone been to Victoria Falls Lounge (AKL) lately?

    It looks like VFL offered only their own appetizers (cheese and fruit plate, African-spiced nuts, and flatbreads with spreads) for quite awhile (the most recent DIS discussion I was able to find on VFL was pretty old). However, on June 25, '09, someone wrote the following review on the wdwinfo...

    Can adults buy kids' meals?

    Due to a medical condition (not gastric bypass, though), I eat very small meals/snacks very frequently throughout the day. Anyone know if the WDW restaurants - particularly the ASMu "Intermission" cafeteria - allow adults to purchase the "kids' picks" meals?

    All Star Music FAQ thread and tips

    Anyone know what beverages are available in the ASMu food court (for the refill mugs)? :confused3 (I don't drink soda/pop.) Also, if one of the choices is "water," does anyone know what kinda water it is? :confused:

    Mugs

    I'll be staying at the ASMu and don't drink soda/pop. what other stuff do they have at ASMu you can fill the mugs up with? And, if 'water' is one of the options, what kinda water is it? :confused3

    POR or Swalphin?

    (Also to ElizabethB) Are you getting a $99 rate on your first room, or just the additional? It's a little confusing to figure out what the S&D's current best rates are (since some of the web sites I've looked at might not be current) - if you call them, will the representative generally clue you...
