    Singers in America at Epcot- do they sing Christmas carols in Dec?

    They have several recording out. Look for Christmas in Velvet ( I thinks it is under Derric Johnson's Vocal Orchestra) Beautiful arrangements! Not as good as live, but very close.

    Halloween

    Just think of it as "fall festival decorations". The Magic Kingdom will be decorated with fall colors and plenty of "jack-o-lanterns". Epcot will be decorated for Wine and Food Festival. The other parks generally will not be decorated extravagantly, if at all. Hope that helps.

    Hoop Dee Doo Review or Kona/Whispering Canyon?

    Hoop Dee Doo is a favorite of ours for many years. We "bearly" ever miss a chance to see this show and eat there. The cornbread is nice and sweet, the fried chicken is moist and tender, the ribs sticky and tender, and the entertainment always brings a smile to our faces.

    Main Street Electrical or Spectromagic?????

    My first nighttime parade many years ago still holds that special place in my heart and mind. I love the electrosynthamagnetic sounds of the music. It just makes me smile. I enjoy Spectromagic and will stop and watch it as it goes by, but I make plans to see the MSEP. I leave in 4 days and...

    Need some advice....

    Depending upon which airline you are taking, there may be Checked baggage fees. That get's you going and coming, figure an additional $30-50.00 per person. If they weigh over 50 lbs. they get you again for heavy bag fee. I live near Charlotte and have done both, fly and drive. We usually fly for...

    Mickey's Halloween Party - Costume Ideas?

    My wife and I purchased personalized Mousecateer T-Shirts and Mouse Ear Hats. We had planned to wear these with shorts, however, there was a cold snap (got down to mid-40's after the sun went down) the weekend that we went so we wore jeans with the t-shirts. It wasn't extravagant, but we were...

    Good Attractions For An 18 Mo Old OUTSIDE The Parks??

    Most 18 month olds are happy in the pool or just rinding the monorail or bosts between the resorts. I have an 18 month old nephew and his needs are pretty basic.

    Why go to MNSSHP???

    I would suggest avoiding the MNSSHP with a two year old. It is a great special event, however, at two years old, she won't be able to appreciate the different decorations, parades and other activities. Yes, there will be trick or treating, but it makes for a long day/night for a little one. I...

    If you or your daughter are into vocal groups, don't miss the Voice of Liberty. This group performs approximately 30 minutes before The American Adventure. Make sure you get a seat on the floor around the circle under the rotunda. Great American music performed by an outstanding ensemble. You...

    Where is the best place to eat at Animal Kingdom?

    CS would have to be Flame Tree. TS would be Tusker House. We usually get a lunch reservation and then get the complimentary VIP seating at the 3:15ish Finding Nemo Show. Great seats up front, no standing in the loooong line.

    Planning your first trip can be a challenge and very overwhelming. There will be many opinions on the best way of tackling the planning and accomplishing the goals. I was fortunate to have gone many times as a child and have some preconceived ideas of what my perfect Disney trip is. This has...

    Magic Music Days

    As a former band director, I have taken marching and concert groups to perform at Magic Kingdom, EPCOT and Hollywood Studios many time throughout the years. Magic Music Days is an incredible program that lets the participants feel like they are "cast members" for the day. After 15 years, I still...

    Free parking at POP?

    POP has plenty of FREE parking. When we were there in June of 2008, we never had any problem finding parking close to our part of the resort. You can also take advantage of your resort amenities by showing your keycard at the theme park lots and they will wave you through! Enjoy your trip!
