    And a day or so later than previously forecast. Hard to know what effect it will have on air traffic.

    Tropical threat?? Leaving in 9 days...

    If you are flying down, you may not get out on Wednesday. Even when flights resume, they will have a big backlog of rescheduling to work through. It could take a couple of days or longer to get home. I guess the question is, how critical is it that you are home on Wednesday?

    Is Chef Mickey for dinner that bad

    No Disney restaurant is “bad”. Chef Mickey’s is great for kids. Mine loved it when she was that age.

    SPACE RESTAURANT WATCH THREAD—Entrance photos post #1609!!

    For those who glimpsed the menu before it was pulled, can you tell us what you remember? A perverse part of me wants to know.

    What's the deal with Finger Scans?

    I think the scan is a sham. This week I tried scanning different fingers, even different hands- they all were accepted. I suspect that Disney is using the scan to make people afraid to loan out annual passes to their friends.

    Injuries in Parks

    http://www.orlandosentinel.com/business/tourism/orl-attractionaccidents-searchpage,0,4762926.htmlstory I guess that I didn't know there were so many. They seem to range from the tragic to the silly (maybe with a few lawsuit predators added in).

    What is UP with the Country Bear Jamboree?

    I could swear that I remember staged gunfights in Fronterland (at Disneyland) when I was a kid. Does anyone else recall that from the early 60s ? I suppose that would be somewhat inappropriate today, in the sense that it might disturb a few people who are not into the Western genre. But...

    Crowds in parks during Christmas week??

    Crowds that week are HORRIBLE. My family went over Christmas last year, and we had fun, but it took adjusting our way of thinking to make that possible. I would recommend staying at the parks no more than three hours each day. You can have fun, if you pick the right three hours. Maybe...

    Is this legal for DVC to do?

    So... if I rent an apartment from a large corporation, and then sublet a spare bedroom (something allowed in the contract) to an individual who purchases a truck load of merchandise from that corporation and then drives off before paying, never to be seen again, can my landlord legally to lock...

    Taking only 1 child to Disney

    Don't do it, Mom. A three year old is plenty old enough to know what is happaining. What a recepe for ******* between your kids! And don't you think that the bonding with the one child will be at the expense of the relationship with the other? Bad, bad idea.

    Anyone ever surprise your children

    The joy is in the hunt, not the kill. My brother "surprises" his kids with trips to Disney. He's also sometimes disappointed by their reactions- equal parts joy and confusion/disorientation. I would never do that to my daughter. For anyone considering this, I would urge an honest...

    Parking at the boardwalk????

    Yes, there is a parking lot at Boardwalk. It is shared by people staying at the Boardwalk resort, as well as visitors to the dining areas. Some people on this board (including myself) get cranky when discussing it, because the parking lot is WAY too small for the number of hotel guests, much...

    Splash Mtn / Song of the South needed

    also on that i've read on the website www.songofthesouth.net that there is only 5 mins of speaking in it Is it possible that they were talking about Bambi? That is the only Disney movie that comes to mind with so little dialogue.

    Splash Mtn / Song of the South needed

    It might be worth noting that the Splash Mountain storyline is based on Uncle Remus' "Tar Baby" story, in which Brair Rabbit is captured by Brair Fox and Brair Bear. Brair Rabbit uses reverse psychology (whatever you do, pleeese don't throw me into the brair patch!) to help him escape...
