    Tipping at Palo

    My opinion is you tip because the servers are providing you exceptional service. The servers in these restaurants have worked their way up to be able to work there. We've been on many cruises and often see servers that used to be in the MDR promoted to Palo. We provide a healthy gratuity...

    Fantasy Western 4/27 - lots of sick going around!

    Here is another option (Chorox CLO 02174). We are heading out on the Fantasy on Saturday. I'll be using these as well as frequent washing!

    **June 2016 check in**

    We are going June 4-10 and staying at GC. This will be our 2nd trip but we are WDW veterans. We usually grab quick breakfasts and then only reserve dinners. So far we have a few dinners booked including Blued Bayou and the WOC dinner package. My experience is that you can book right up until the...

    **June 2016 check in**

    I think the problem with June is that they have Grad nights. You can see the list of dates here: http://www.wdwinfo.com/disneyland/Events/grad-nights.html

    Gift ideas for student studying abroad

    My daughter is going abroad too. She has the option of using her iPhone with a SIM card that will work in the country traveling to. The SIM card replaces the one currently in there. When it is in place, the normal phone number won't work and she will be able to avoid any roaming charges, etc...

    Aulani: What's the One Thing You Wish You Knew?

    If you want to do Pearl Harbor, I would recommend doing the excursion from Aulani and book early. The presale tickets sell out quickly and if you try to just go there and get a ticket, it's likely your timed ticket to the Arizona will be later in the day from when you arrive. The excursion has...

    Halloween Fantasy On The High Seas - Eastern October 24th 2015

    Yes, we are also doing the Oct 22 MNSSHP! We are staying at BCV for 4 nights before the cruise! I'm getting so excited. We have stayed at the 4 Points Sheraton in Cocoa Beach. It was nice. Cocoa Beach is convenient for getting to Port Canaveral!

    Halloween Fantasy On The High Seas - Eastern October 24th 2015

    Hi Rose! :wave2: yes, we love DCL! We haven't been on the Fantasy though and our Dream cruise was only 4 days. So, we're excited to explore the bigger ship. It's also been a very long time since we've been able to go to Castaway Cay. Our cruise on the Dream wasn't able to stop there because...

    Halloween Fantasy On The High Seas - Eastern October 24th 2015

    We booked this while onboard the Southern Caribbean Magic a few weeks ago. We really wanted to be onboard around Halloween and also to finally get onboard the Fantasy. This will be our 15th cruise and after this we'll have been on all 4 ships! I'm Lori and I'll be traveling with my DH (Ralph)...

    Magical Southern Caribbean ~ 9/20/14

    Still no Port Adventures posted. I just paid in full today and supposedly can start booking on 5/23 since I'm Platinum. I'd really like a chance to look at them before that time rolls around.

    Throwaway room (read post #2041 or #2710 before posting)

    We were just in the park today and someone was telling us they couldn't use any of their FP+ because e they hadn't checked into their room. So, it looks like Disney figured out the ghost reservation trick.

    Fantasmic - delays getting in with no FP+

    They seemed to let in some SB folks early, so if we had arrived 10 minutes earlier we would have been able to go in with the other guests.but at half hour before we were held behind a rope until 10 minutes before the show. We still got in though. I realize too that the second show has a lot of...

    Fantasmic - delays getting in with no FP+

    Or those of you trying to decide what to use your FP+ selections on at HS, here is some information. We showed up at Fantasmic last night at 8pm for the 8:30 show. There were putting up ropes to hold back the standby people. They told us they would reopen the rope 10 minutes before the show...

    The Positive Thread..Going to WDW in 3 days!

    By the way, I did end up cancelling my ressie at EPCOT for the day we are going to be doing the F&G Festival. We would rather just eat at the booths given all the great suggestions! We can eat in the restaurants any time.

    The Positive Thread..Going to WDW in 3 days!

    This sounds very special! What a great idea. :thumbsup2 In looking at the crowd calendars, next week seems to be a low week. However, I do expect EPCOT to be full. I'm not worried about it though since we already have our FP+ times picked. Nice! Thanks for the tip! Stopping and...

    The Positive Thread..Going to WDW in 3 days!

    I saw that they have dole whip with dark rum. That is definitely going to be on my list! I am very excited to try the food booths at EPCOT. I am considering canceling our sit down dinner at Via Napoli and just eating at the booths the whole day.
