    Epcot Build a Robot

    I miss that exhibit too. We were so disappointed when we returned a year later and saw they replaced it. I don't know what's there now but we will be there in Oct.

My mother is patient as a saint waiting. I wish I could be like that. Please WDW announce some kind...

    One Ride that Disney should eliminate

    I do have my least favorites but my kids enjoy mostly everything so I won't complain. For some reason kids love the Stitch experience/ride. I can't stand the smoke, the smells, just the whole thing about being restrained in the dark. LOL. My kids could go on that thing 10x. What I dislke the...

    Age Requirement?

    I own Fodor's 2011 guide to WDW with kids and the Unofficial Guide to WDW 2011. Both books break the rides down into height requirements, wait time and scare factor based on age appropriateness. Both books have been helpful as a resource and the touring plans/ suggestions are helpful too. Have...

    Pool Time!

    When my son was 6 I lost him at the grotto pool at the Swan Hotel. He was with his big sister and I guess she got too far ahead of him running to go down the pool slide and my son could not find the entrance. I was at the bottom of the slide and watched my daughter go down, then 2 more kids but...

    Anyone use a train to get to Orlando?

    We took the train from Buffalo, NY to Kissimmee, FL. It was a nightmare! We did it coach but I suggest if you decide to go via train definitely get a private room for yourselves. We thought we could upgrade when we got to the train station but the price was tripled. Reserve a private room first...

    Good for you finishing nursing school. I know how happy and relieved you must feel. It's been 5 years since I graduated nursing school myself. Best place to celebrate is WDW!!!!!! Good luck in all that you do.

    Is there an October 2011 codes watch?

    Sad thing is that I already booked the airfare so I have no choice to take the family. Luckily my parents are going at the same time so we currently have a 2br villa at the beach club reserved. It'll take most of my budget paying for just the room at rack rate! Come on Disney! Help us out! I...

    Sooo Not doing the happy Dance.

    Isn't part of that money yours as well? I think its unfair on how your DH demands for it all or nothing. I agree debt sucks but we all have debt. If you can budget WDW then go!!!

    Stroller help

    I bought the baby jogger city mini and LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!! DH saw how easy it was to fold up and how light it was he said yes on the spot. Plus we got last years model which saved us an additional $70! I needed the double but the single stroller works just as well. It is definitely worth the...

    2 adults, plus 5 kids...where to stay?

    I have the same problem except 2adults and 4kids. I've been researching and I think the best deal is the value resorts like the family suites at ASM b/c 2 bathrooms and a kitchenette. Tight quarters though. Better deals financially seem 2 b off dis property like at buena vista or the hilton but...
