He are sad not to go to Florida this summer, but it will be nice to drive on vacation for once. We have about an 8 hour drive from Iowa-- Anyone stayed at one of their onsite hotels? How many days does it take to really do everything? We have planned out July 10-17 to go over there--...

We are not going to Florida this summer but decided to take some time to go to Cedar Point in Sandusky OH. Saw it on the travel channel and family has to go. I tried searching for message boards just for Cedar Point and found none-- They have onsite hotels-have you stayed and would you...

I knew that the menus were a lot of pizzas and burgers, I had really planned on not really watching what I ate too much. I never dreamed I would be so sick of it, yet feel like I needed to eat two meals there because I paid for it. Again, my own fault that I felt yucky, I am not blaming...

Yes, you could use any brand for the cups, I believe. bed Bath and Beyond sold all kinds of brands. Just make sure it is the cups, not the pods (which are little filter disks) They did not have hot cocoa, which I was bummed when I saw there was a selection. You could ask ahead if time if...

:goodvibes I feel all warmand fuzzy that it is not just me... I am so used to people being self absorbed or worried about staying together, or losing little johnnie, but this was a different vibe that day. I had the ususal people stopping short, wandering in my way, etc, but to have...

I read this thread like crazy, and usually pack early for our trip. Work kept me too busy, and we were packing at the last minute. I had been gathering things for a while before hand, but really felt rushed at the last minute--- so start packing early kids! The thing I forgot----I...

I was in the same boat--I wanted to ask the ladies that were wearing them where they got them and how comfy they were, but both of them were not english speaking, so that did not work, which made me wonder if I would be able to find them. I really found the sandals to be not too bad looking...

front of the line is just that---You have a special line that you just show your room key to get into and the wait is minimal. We love Universal/IOA and stay on site there, but never stay on site for Disney. Anybody can get a fast pass there.... you can use it over and over and over...

:rotfl: I was so worried about something as ding dong as how i was going to get a good cup (pot) of coffee in the morning when the RP went to the single cup makers, the Keuring (not sure I have the spelling right). Without spending $4 a cup.... The coffee in the room was great. It was...

Yes--greasy beached whale sydrome is a real medical emergency;) I have been following Dr. Oz for more than two years, and have lost 50 pounds, so maybe I am not the one to review the meal deal, but I thought I would give you my spin on it.... Since we were staying onsite and were only...

Plus I forgot to add that even 1 night at one of the onsite hotels gets you two days of Front of the Line access. We did that the first year we stayed at the Portofino. We dropped off our luggage at 8am and left it at the luggage station. They gave us room keys that were not activated yet...

:headache: We were at MK on 8/2 and had not been in a few years. People traffic is always something you have to take with a grain of salt and a smile, but this year it just was unbearable. Not that the park was that crowded, nor was any particular group to blame, like a large school group...

I just could not believe that people were buying the Universal Express passes- at $19-$45 per person on top of admission. Unless you are lucky to live in Orlando, or staying with friends and not needing a hotel room, then you should stay onsite instead of buying express passes for a large...

happened to us on 8/8 as well. we went to the parks a little later than ususual, and it took us 1/2 hour to get in the park. All ticket takers were backed up with people, and we got in this line that did not move at all for 20 minutes and could not get out of it since the crowd was so huge...

We we in Orlando 8/1-8/9 and I saw a couple different ladies wearing these sandals...they looked like they were walking on sandals with tennis shoe marshmallow bottoms! I am always seeking the perfect park sandal, so I keep my eyes open when I am in Orlando to see if I spy anything I have not...

For me it stays on until it gets very wet from a soak on a water ride. I just cut a few extra strips the size i need and carry with me to replace when they get too wet and start to come off. otherwise, they stay in place if you cut them large enough to cover your sore spot and not rub the...

:goodvibes I just had to share that I booked the Staybridge Suites Lake Buena Vista after reading a few good threads about them,and I had the best experience there than I have had at any hotel in Orlando. It may not have the most elaborate pool area, but for other ammenities, it cannot be...

:eek: We stayed there for just one night, thank goodness. It was the last night of our trip on 8/8/08 and we just needed an inexpensive place near Universal to stay at after checking out of the Royal Pacific. If I had seen the room before 8pm, I would have made us switch. Hubby dropped...

Sorry to dissent--- It would be cool if I spent $10 or less to get in... We went in 2002 and you can only look at gators for so long. The best part was the little water spray area they had. Thought it was a huge waste of $$ for our family of four. I think I had a discount, but it was...
