    ** OPENING DAY PRICING 2018 Pt 3 September-December: Magic, Wonder, Dream, Fantasy **

    Have you checked Amtrak from Seattle to Vancouver? That's what we were planning before we decided to do the Panama Canal this year instead of Alaska last year. Just throwing out an option you may not have thought about.

    ** OPENING DAY PRICING 2018 Pt 3 September-December: Magic, Wonder, Dream, Fantasy **

    If it were me I'd go through Dreams Unlimited rather than call Disney and transfer. It's my understanding transfers get less onboard credit.

    Use old iPhone as iPod Touch?

    You'll need to leave the SIM in for it to function at all - at least it's that way for the iPhone4. I'm not sure if that's going to cause other complications.

    How to get the best photos taken for photopass

    We had a PhotoPass photographer stop my husband to ask if he could take a photo - so it does happen. I'm going to attempt to attach a photo.

    Best place for cheap glasses?

    We purchased two pairs of glasses for our 5 year old at Wal-Mart for $38 a pair. The optometrist wanted $410 for the CHEAPEST children's glasses with lenses. Since he's already broken one pair, I'm glad I didn't pay the $410!

    best SUV/car for tall drivers with car seats?

    Last year, in August, we were able to score a nearly fully loaded Lincoln MKT with 5 year 0% financing for less than a Honda Odyssey. The huz is 6' 2" and he's still got head room, we've got two car seats in the middle row. We use the 3rd row for car seats and the middle row for three adult...

    Do you Christmas shop all year?

    I do shopping the first half or so of the year. I'm self employed in the retail industry and one of my kiddo's has a Dec. birthday so Oct-Dec is insane around here. I don't have time to do much shopping then! We just do a single gift for each child, and then Santa brings three gifts for each...

    My feet are burnin' like a coal of fire!

    Moisture wicking socks with arch support built in (Target sells them) and shoes with ventilation. My current sneakers are Nike Trail and they've got the meshy stuff on the toes that lets air.

    Kohls K Cups

    In a pinch, from Sam's Club. We usually order ours from Frontier Co-op where I can get a box of 12 for $5.89 but most months, they're on sale for less.

    Animal Kingdom Plan Help!

    How much time do you have budgeted for the Boneyard? IIRC, it's more of a giant play area than a ride (or maybe that's something else and I'm misremembering). Any way, we gave our kids 30 minutes and it was difficult to get them out. It was also difficult for one adult to keep track of two...

    Do you leave your diaper bag/anything in your stroller?

    I did it at the MK and I saw a directional sign at AK for package pick up. It can be done, and it's free.

    Tourguide Mike ???

    My two cents - it was good to have a "plan" for a total newbie family, and I got that from TGM. On the other hand, the "plan" for the preschool set included rides that were being renovated, were age-inappropriate, or required the rider to be significantly taller than an average 5 year old. I...

    Hotel first night near disney?

    We stayed at Hampton Inn Lake Buena Vista last time, and it was nice (but just OK for Hampton). We've also stayed at the Sheraton Safari across from Downtown Disney (years ago) and it was also nice.

    sunscreen gurus look here

    My youngest has some pretty severe allergies and wicked eczema and our allergist and pediatrician both recommended Aveeno Baby for sunscreen.

    How quickly do the parks empty out after Xmas week?

    We went this year Jan 2 - Jan 7. It was super crowded on the 2nd, Epcot was the worst I've ever seen it on the 3rd, and there was virtually no lines the entire rest of the time.

    Mickey's PhilharMagic

    My boys were 2 and 5 when we went in January and both of them reached out to "catch" things as they "flew" past. That joy and wonder on their faces at the time, that is what Disney Magic means to me.

    Desperately Seeking Comfortable Sandals

    My favorite sandals are Birkenstocks and Chacos. I don't do flip flops and have somewhat wide feet, although not wide enough to need a wide.
