    Crowds but no lines - brief report from 8/3/12-8/7/12

    Hi everyone, DW and DS's (6 and 3) just came back from our second trip to WDW. I thought I'd share some highlights. We stayed at AKL which was a great resort. We had a standard view room that let us see some savannah if we stood on our toes. I'd say we didn't take many opportunities to...

    Thank you , AKL!

    Just got in to AKL. Our standard view cheapo room wasn't ready at 3:00 which was check in time. No prob because our two young kids wanted to explore the lodge anyway. At 4:00 I asked the front desk what was up, and they said our room was just now ready. But because of our inconvenience they...

    car seats in cabs?

    Right, and parents need to make the right choice. I think failing to use a car seat is a bad choice even if the law permits it. I've been in more than a few taxis where I feared for my life, and I think car seats are even more necessary in cabs! (Sorry, cabbies, I call it like I see it.)

    car seats in cabs?

    Doesn't the last part of the statute say this does NOT apply to a "taxi"? I'm wondering if maybe Mom's Panel (who I have no connection to) was correct.

    How to get from Rosen centre to WDW?

    Thanks for your help. It's good to know we can't take a Disney bus from TTC to AKL. I didn't know that, so you saved us a lot of trouble. :) We won't have luggage because someone will be transporting it for us, so it will just be a family of four with no bags. So our plan will be to take...

    How to get from Rosen centre to WDW?

    Do you mean there are no Lynx buses from TTC to resorts? I figured we'd get off the Lynx at TTC and get the Disney bus to AKL. Am I right in thinking we can ride a Disney bus from TTC to AKL?

    How to get from Rosen centre to WDW?

    Same need here (but with a family of four). Any thoughts on Lynx from Rosen Centre (at Convention Center) to AKL? We're thinking of taking Lynx to WDW, but it looks like multiple transfers. And if we did this, could we take Lynx to TTC or DTD and then take the Disney bus to AKL (even...

    AKL first-timer

    My wife and kids (6 and 3) are going in August, and we're going to stay at AKL. This will be our second trip to WDW. Our first time we stayed at WL and loved it. We're hoping we like AKL as much (or even more). Right now we're booked in a standard view room. My guess is it's worth it to get...

    MK rope drop advice

    Hi everyone, It's our first time going to WDW next week, and we'll be with our two kids (both preschoolers) and my elderly parents. We'll visit different parks each day, but the Big Day will be MK on Jan 4. If we want to get there at rope drop to see the train and characters come in, when...

    Transport time from WL to parks?

    We're staying at WL in January. We've never been there. How long will it take Disney transportation to get us to MK, AK, Epcot, and DHS from WL? I assume the boat is the best way to go to MK. Is the monorail the best way to get to Epcot? We have two preschoolers, so a fun trip is sometimes...

    First-time visit in January!

    Great ideas, everyone! I think we're going to look into Epcot after hearing all of those suggestions. I had written it off for us given how young our boys are, but now I think we'll give it a go. A question...All the advice about breakfast I've heard is to eat on the run and get to the park...

    First-time visit in January!

    Our family just made arrangements to go to WDW the first week of January. We're staying at WL for five nights. We have a 5-year old and 2-year old. We plan to hit MK three days, Studios one day, and AK one day. We're starting to look into restaurants and making ADR. Suggestions from...

    Commute time to parks and preschoolers

    Hi everyone, Former lurker, first-time poster. Great board. Lots of good ideas. We're planning to go to WDW around Dec 16-21. We have a 2 and a 5 year-old. We'll definitely hit MK a couple days, Hollywood Studios a day, and probably AK. We'll probably do full mornings, go back for naps...
