We are on our second Hyundai Santa Fe (2001 and now 2013). Absolutely loved them. Come loaded with all the bells and whistles we need, and very reliable as well as good on gas.

We are taking the 4-day cruise in February, and will of course be in Nassau for the day. We are thinking of not signing up for any shore activity, but instead just hiring a taxi for a half-day and have them give us a tour of the island? Is this a reasonable plan? Have any of you ever done this?

I was formerly a Member of Parliament here in Canada, and every trip ran into people who knew me (from the media) even if I didn't know them. I used to appreciate them coming over and chatting. We also regularly came across people that we knew - never a trip without this happening. Now that I...

We are at this moment at Disney. This is our 39th year. We've lost track of the actual number of trips. The fact that we live in Canada and have always had AP's pretty well shows how much we love it here. Never had a real problem. Until now. For the first time ever, we have had people make...

Several months ago there was a thread in this forum about adding something to your dishwasher to keep it clean and the dishes cleaner. I didn't need the advice then. I do now. Does anyone remember what it was that members suggested be added to the dishwasher? Thanks.

Be cautioned! I was at Florida Celebration Hospital about 18 months ago when I was struck by a truck while I was walking. They offered me 50% also if I paid there, which I did. I then sent my claim to my insurance and was compensated. Then, about a year after that, they turned my account...

The location of Circus World is now a shopping mall. We were there a year or so before it closed and we remember going to one of the shows as soon as we arrived. We then went to the next show, and noted that the performers were exactly the same as in the first one. Same thing for the third...

I have a 2003 Pontiac Montana van. Bought it new. Consumers Report says its the worst vehicle made. My experience, however, has been tremendous. Have 563,000 km on it (349,000 miles) Have replaced brakes and tires plus 1 front wheel bearing - and that's it! Would have happily bought...

Thank you to everyone for the feedback. It is very interesting. Details I missed in my initial posting are that we boarded the ship around 11:30 a.m. on Sunday, the 10th. The illness struck on the 13th, which leads me to believe that we did not bring it with us. I should also mention that a...

We just today finished our first ever cruise. The Disney Wonder was amazing. the food fantastic, and the crew unbelievably good. Here's our question: The last day (all day at sea), five of our party of nine became very ill with flu-like symptoms, and were quarantined in their cabin. Then we...

I am now 63 years old, and live in Ontario. When I was in grade 2 my mother died of cancer before we had socialized medicine, and I watched the medical bills nearly bankrupt my family. I contrast this now, where families do not live in fear of a major health crisis destroying them financially...

I'm a little confused on the above response, as we have had APs for years, and they have never done finger scans for our children. They were always told to simply insert the ticket and walk through, but to not scan their finger.

We're Canadian, and have visited Disney World at least once a year for 34 years (AP holders). However, for the first time, we're planning to go on a Disney cruise. Here's my stupid question: When I search the web pages, there are firms which have far, far lower prices for the cruise than is...

This title may sound like it belongs on the disABILITIES board, but I believe it really needs to be shared with a broader audience. While walking at Wide World of Sports in January, I was struck by a delivery truck, and had my left knee crushed. I spent the rest of our visit in a wheelchair...

Well, everything worked out today. As Cheshire Figment mentioned, there is a 'Reserved' row adjacent to each of the Accessability Parking rows. At both Epcot and DHS I explained my situation to the parking attendant, and they directed me to that row. One of them said that row is kept there...

Thank you to everyone for their suggestions. I'm still kind of stuck. They have put my left leg into a restraining device that keeps it perfectly straight, and have told me that I must put absolutely no weight on it. To say that mobility is a problem is an understatement. It takes me about...

I was at Wide World of Sports 3 days ago to watch my 2 sons run the Mickey Mile. While waiting, I went back to our car to leave a few items. While returning back, and crossing at a marked crosswalk, a truck stopped at the stop sign and then accelerated rapidly, striking me. Not a good thing...

Maybe I'm being overly sensitive, but as a parent who has lost a child, I find DisneyVillians closing lines regarding eating children highly offensive, and am surprised that it is permitted on this Board.

There was a news item in our local media a few weeks ago about them. The story told of people who did as they have asked you to, only to learn a few weeks later that the cheque was no good, and they were stuck with the loss. I think it's a scam.

We visited there about 3 weeks ago, having checked ahead what days they are open to the public. As stated in earlier posts, the warehouse and yard appear to be highly disorganized. However, we had a very positive experience. We were free to wander the entire complex, and when we needed help...
