    Terrio's WDW Adventure: Day 2

    PolyPrincess, I do love the Polynesian Resort, too. The only other resort I've ever stayed in was the Disney Institute, though, and they are just so different. I think the Poly needs some refurbishment, though, and I know they're working on longhouses now (though it wasn't evident to us on...

    Terrio's WDW Adventure: Day 2

    CJK: to see the Mary Poppins trees (and I only saw them from the monorail), just after the monorail pulls out of the Grand Floridian, get on the left side of the car, and look down. That tree is just in front of smaller building there. There's another that can be seen from the monorail only...

    Back From Poly LV Concierge

    Glad you had fun! We were there the same time as you were...also LV Concierge with a view of the castle. It is magical, isn't it? Bet we passed in the halls! Thanks for the report,

    Terrio's WDW Adventure: Day 1

    Thanks, TinkerChelle. If you're flying down I hope you have a great flight and/or are heavily medicated. Only kidding, really, it wasn't so bad!

    Terrio's WDW Adventure: Day 1

    LOL, Pumba! Some young man was standing by the fountains at the Ice Station, and was suggesting Italy to me (I'd tried it already, too). He seemed so delighted when I tried it and made a yuck! face. He'd really pulled one on me! You got it right, Annie&Hallie'sMom, WDW is definitely worth...

    Our dream trip to WDW - Day 9-11

    I've really enjoyed reading your trip reports. What I liked most though, was that even though this wasn't your first trip, or 2nd, or 3rd, you still have so much enjoyment in WDW, and very few complaints (except re: GF concierge, but it seems lately that some of the deluxe resorts are having...

    America West or Southwest??

    My personal feeling is that if you can get assigned seats, then take AW. My family has flown SW many times, and though we have always been able to sit together, it is largely because we've made arrangement to get to the airports so early. This is always a source of stress for us since we...

    Southwest new boarding **new info**

    Thanks Gail. We fly from Manchester, although not very often so its always a stressful thing for me. I'll re post when we return to let folks know how the new boarding procedure worked for us. Again, thanks for your advice! Beth

    Southwest new boarding **new info**

    Thanks, Gail. Don't get me wrong, I am never "gauche". Maybe I wasn't clear. In the past is, we check our bags at curbside (and tip skycap), then went to the gate to get the boarding pass. I thought that now the skycap outside would also give us our boarding pass? What I thought was we...

    6 yr old depressed about Disney trip not here yet

    Know what you mean re: little girl getting depressed cause the trip is so far away...my 7 yo (and me, too, to be honest) have felt that way too in the past. A couple of things we do to lighten the load: on the 10 days till WDW mark, we plan a kickoff countdown party...for instance, this year...

    Southwest new boarding **new info**

    I have to fly (emphasis on "have to", with an evil look towards dh) SW verrrry soon, and this is my plan (Please someone tell me if it won't work): with dh, ds, and young daughter (but over age 5...but I CANNOT have her sit without dad or mom). I figured I'd plan to be in line at the...
