    Decal Removal?

    Hi Belle, I asked my son who also works at a sign shop and he agrees completely with DisneyZB on all points. Hubby used the lighter fluid method on our new truck cap last fall to take distracting decals off the back window and still had residue left over. My son took that off with his "special...

    Port Orleans French Quarter Q&A Thread, New for 2012 (thread now FULL and CLOSED)

    Taking a bit of a break from lists and packing for a sec and since I'm not sure I'll get another chance before we hop in the car early tomorrow morning to make the drive (We're in Michigan so it's a LOOOOOONG drive lol) I wanted to thank you all and especially Andre for all the great and very...

    Wishes Dessert Party ADR Watch Thread # 2 - September 2013 OPEN!!!

    It's been ages since I've posted here but I do lurk often and I wanted to thank you all for helping me keep up my excitement over this booking and not have it turn into frustration at having to wait for it to open up. Gotta love Disney eh? I was refreshing right along with the rest of you and...

    I have issues with getting my room cleaned

    Totally understand why a person might not want, or really need Mousekeeping to come in and tidy up daily or at all during their stay. I do, but I have to say I really love coming back to a nice tidy room, beds all made. That said, I make sure that things I don't want touched are at least...

    The All-New "unofficial" AKL/AKV's Jambo & Kidani FAQ thread.....

    Hoping all of you AKL experts might have some insight to help me make a decision. Tomorrow the window to do the early/online check-in opens for me (YEEE HA!!! we're getting close!) but I'm wondering if I really want to do that or not. What are the advantages, other than a few minutes of...

    e-cigarette update

    Wow....this thread has reminded me of one more reason to celebrate my upcoming trip to WDW. It will be the first trip I've taken with hubby where I won't have to wait and then deal with the horrid stench on his clothing afterward while he sits and sucks down cigarettes. Too cool! Imagine...

    You WANT it, you GOT it...AKL LITE III!

    Thanks for the welcome folks and Wickey's Friend, you were one I recognized as well! Hello to you too! So, Zebra Domes....I get that they're a must try, and I totally trust you all that they are most awesome, but what (beyond a sweet treat) are they and what makes them a gotta do?

    Chivalry is dead.

    The truth is I probably would give up my seat to nearly anyone who apparently needs it, but it grinds my gears to read that it's expected in situations that people brought on themselves. Need is one thing, need because you've created a bad situation is not my responsibility.

    Chivalry is dead.

    yep, totally agree that this can happen. It did to me a few times on 2 separate trips when my youngest was 3 and 4. When he konked out unexpectedly in his stroller (If I read your post right and your youngest is 3 I'm going to assume you had a stroller right?) that was time for me to either...

    Line question - 1 person waits - group joins at the end

    No, taking a child to the potty is not spoiling them, nor did I say that. I'm completely aware that (ahem) 'stuff' happens even when you do plan ahead. I'm not totally cold, uncaring and unreasonable. What IS spoiling them is training them to think that they are entitled to special treatment and...

    Line question - 1 person waits - group joins at the end

    Oooo pot stirring going on. Cool! Here's the thing. Everyone is special, which basically means no one is special, or at least no more special than anyone else. In the OP question, shame on those parents on several counts. Shame on them for what I'm guessing was false advertising to that...

    Line question - 1 person waits - group joins at the end

    Now, see, that puts a whole different spin on this and having experience with 'special' challenges faced by some, (Hubby has BPD and has several health issues as well) it makes tons more sense. I've adjusted my opinion. I know it's none of my business why anyone else does what they do, and...

    Line question - 1 person waits - group joins at the end

    If there is a wait that long for the attraction/character/whatever that you wish to see, and you join that line, then you (in general, not you specifically) made a CHOICE to do so, presumably knowing full what what that does and could include as far as consequences as well as the benefits you're...

    Line question - 1 person waits - group joins at the end

    I'm going to take the agree to disagree stance here on several counts I think. I could post way more in regard to my thoughts on your choices in this as it's actually IMO a bit scary, but I'll act out of 'character' for me and leave it alone beyond saying congrats to you for scoring all...

    Line question - 1 person waits - group joins at the end

    Well, as someone who has been at the head of the line for the "next" show at the Lion King at AK after waiting for almost an hour with a nearly 4 year old son because the person in front of me magically multiplied into a group of 10 people at that last minute, causing us to have to wait another...

    You WANT it, you GOT it...AKL LITE III!

    First of all, I'd like to say thank you to you all for the incredible wealth of information you so generously share. Secondly, I'd like to say hello, and introduce myself. I used to hang out on a couple of Disney themed sites and even moderated on a couple but circumstances on those sites...

    Have the menus changed because of free dining?

    It's been a few years since I've had the luxury of visiting WDW and I'm looking forward to celebrating our 10th Anniversary there in a month. It's hubby and I only this trip and we have decided to get the DxDDP and make our meals part of the adventure for us. In regard to folks just going...

    MK Firework Dessert Party

    I'll be there from 9/24 to 10/3 and decided to call for myself and ask if it was going to be extended yesterday. The very helpful CM at WDWDINE spent way more time than she had to trying to get insight on any extension and finally came back and said that currently there was no word that...
