    Hrh 9/22 - 9/28

    BSTNSPRTS - How weird is that! I do remember the Boston song being requested at Pat O'Briens. I wish I could have held out for Lucille. The first time I ever heard the "special lyrics" was at Pat O'Briens on our 2001 trip and the crowd was quite vocal that night. Hope you had a great trip.

    Hrh 9/22 - 9/28

    I called in the morning for a late check and they gave us until noon. Eleven was just too early for us considering we hadn’t packed at all and I was hurting a little bit from the night before. We stayed in the room until noon, stored our luggage and headed over to Bubba Gump’s for lunch. Bubba...

    Hrh 9/22 - 9/28

    We got up fairly early and went down to the Kitchen for breakfast. After breakfast DH went back to bed and I took my time getting ready. We left around eleven and headed to Nascar. DH was still in search of place that would have the cubs game on that evening. We ended up having a couple drinks...

    Hrh 9/22 - 9/28

    DH had golf reservations and had to be out the door by 8:45. I planned on bumming around the parks for awhile to check out the gift shops since DH does not like to do that. I headed to City Walk around 9:30 and stopped at Starbuck’s to get a coffee. I planted myself in one of the chairs in front...

    Hrh 9/22 - 9/28

    We slept in today since we had such a full day on Monday. I think we left the room around 11:00/11:30. We stopped at NBA city so DH could get a bloody mary and search for a paper to check up on the Cubs. We couldn’t find a paper anywhere in City Walk which gave DH the bright idea that he should...

    Hrh 9/22 - 9/28

    According to the news, Monday looked like the best day week, so we decided to pack as much in as we could. All the rain on Sunday had me worried about the rest of the week but aside for a few brief showers the rest of the week turned out fine. We made it over to the US by 9:30 which is...

    Hrh 9/22 - 9/28

    We woke up to rain and decided to wait until noon to check out. If our room wasn’t ready yet at HRH there wouldn't be much to do with all the rain. I made two trips to the concierge floor to get breakfast for us and let DH sleep in. At check out time it was still raining and we cabbed it over to...

    Hrh 9/22 - 9/28

    Background DH and I are a couple of young at heart forty somethings who wanted a relaxing vacation that didn’t require a lot of planning. Going to the Hard Rock during September fit perfectly. We stayed there in 2001 so we already knew the lay of the land. With Universal Express and low crowds...

    Warning: Flooded Rooms at HRH

    Glad to hear that the smell was gone by the time coastergirls visited. HRH was definetely all over the situation and I'm sure they would never put people back into those rooms if they were unsafe. However I know some people are more sensitive to mold, mildew, dust etc.. than others, which is why...

    Warning: Flooded Rooms at HRH

    If you are standing facing the pool with the hotel facing behind you, it was the very end of the building on the left side (the very last wing of the building). I'm sure it was only limited to the first floor and that it was due to the heavy rains because when we came back from the citiwalk that...

    Warning: Flooded Rooms at HRH

    We just returned from a five night stay at HRH. There was quite a bit of rain last Sunday. By Monday most of the rooms in the end wing (the one by pool gate and the path to parks) were flooded. They had all of the doors open, the carpets pulled back and huge fans going. The smell was horrible...

    Caribbean Beach Resort - Don't!

    I think the easter crowds should have died down by then. We mainly used the food court for a late lunch or snack and didn't have any problems. We bought our own breakfast foods for the room which helped us get to the parks on time and then we would usually have lunch at 11:00 in the parks to...

    Caribbean Beach Resort - Don't!

    We stayed at CBR last week while the resort was at full capacity. The service, buses and room were wonderful. The resort was a true island paradise. The bad rap CBR gets just means more rooms for us :cool1:

    Fulton's Crab House - Is it worth the $

    The food was awesome. I felt like our waiter was doing a bit of an upsell thing but his suggestions were right on. Our dinner ended up being rather expensive but there were plenty of reasonably priced selections. I loved the atmosphere.

    Can you use a portable DVD player on plane??

    We are planning on bringing our laptop on the plane for the same purpose. We were able to get some type of connector thing at radio shack so we can plug in multiple headphones.

    Anyone else doing the 20 days and under dance!

    I may have to cancel our trip though due to an ill family member :sad2: I think I may just wait until Friday to do it and lose the 1 night deposit on my room only reservation. I'm just not ready to give up yet.

    How do you get into MK during the parade?

    :confused3 We are going next week. I want to do a late night at MK and perhaps stay for some of the extra magic hours which are from 12-3. Spectro is at 8pm and 10pm and wishes is at 9:00. If we arrive during those hours is there a way to get to the rest of the park or will be stuck in all of...
