    Registering PhotoPass card received with Mickey Mail

    Cons: as soon as the card is scanned and it automatically shows up; the timer starts at that point. If your visit is say, 2 wks then you go home to edit those pics, you've lost 2 wks and only have approx. 2 wks left to edit as opposed to a full 30 days.(just to be on the safe side, I would say...

    Why Won't Nervous Nellie Ride With Me?

    We were just there with my 11 year old DD and we got her to do every ride once. She hated Tower and swore she would never go on that again. She chose not to do EE or Rockn again, but *loved* Space Mountain. It really is up to the individual, but if it's just a general fear of the unknown and...

    You don't "get" it?

    Let's see - Disneyland is 160 acres. Walt Disney World is 30,080 acres. Visually, that's like this: And that's being generous to Disneyland.

    Just Back......opinions.....

    Regarding the AK hours... One of the handlers at Rafiki's Planet Watch told us that the park hours were set based on sundown, as the handlers had to have time to bring the animals in every night, something they cannot do in the dark. So one would expect longer hours in the summer, shorter...

    Replace older rides?

    Carousel of Progress... omg, that is a waste of space. DD loves Stitch - I think it appeals to a certain age group that fits well in the MK. Personally, I think just about everything at Innoventions is boring and too commercialized. Would love to see something better in those spaces.

    Just Got Back

    And lastly, regrets: I regret not getting to see Illuminations. We went to Epcot the day we got there and I planned on staying for Illuminations, but hubby was feeling ill so we left just as it started. I've not seen the show since 1996. I regret not getting enough Photopass pictures. The...

    PhotoPass: After You Get Home

    Quick Question (not sure where this thread should go - mods move if it should be elsewhere) I preordered the CD. My question is: do the photos that they offer that are scenic shots (profession shots they take and offer to everyone) come on the CD? Or just the ones they took of us? Cause I...

    Just Got Back

    Really? Daisy was in Epcot, real near the entrance. She was doing autographs, there was a line of about 20 people. We were there on Saturday just after opening and she was there. Oddly enough, when we left Epcot at about 4, she was in the exact same place still with a line. (I'm sure it was...

    Just Got Back

    Thank you! I panicked when hubby got up Tuesday and said he needed a doctor. The front desk got me in touch with the clinic. I called and they had a driver there in 15 minutes. They drove him back to our hotel and he joined us around 11 at HWS. After he was on anitbiotics for a couple of days...

    Just Got Back

    Just got back! What a fun trip. Weather: Great time to go - sunny, warm but not humid. Had one morning of rain (real rain, not just a quick shower) but other than that, fine! Crowds: Not bad, except for the MK. MK was a madhouse the day we were there. Wait times: Decent and usually...

    Is Sam's worth the membership?

    Did anyone see Rango...good ages to see this?

    3 & 4? No, no no no... I took my DD (11) yesterday and she liked it. But there's lots of shooting, a bird that has a water tower dropped on it (killing it), the chorus sing with nooses around there necks - not good imagery for little ones.

    If you own a Sony PS3, what would make you buy a PS4?

    Agreed. Thankfully, we have one of the first generation PS3s and it is backward compatible. We wouldn't give that up for anything.

    pigeon forge

    We rented a cabin right next to the National Forest one year - a bit out of town but it was nice and quiet. We did white water rafting when DD was 8 and she loved it. Class I is very easy and lots of fun - I would do it again for sure. There is also horseback riding - not sure if yours...

    Vacations of a Lifetime - Your List

    I mentioned on another thread that I have always wanted to go to Hawaii. So I got to thinking, aside from Disney, where would you like to go on a dream vacation? Assume money is not an issue. You can list more than one. Places I've always wanted to visit: Hawaii - Not just for the...

    Need help chosing a new car...

    Wow. That really sucks, cause I just love my forester. For the past couple of years I think ... hm, my car is getting old, maybe I should replace it ... and then I just give it a good cleaning and realize I don't need to. She's over 8 years old now with 157K miles and going strong. Hubby...
