    I know it can get worse but..

    Thanks guys, we do need this. We are a positive bunch and know temporary setbacks happen. I've been doing my best to get the 4 newbies excited but can't seem to, especially the kids (niece and nephew) ages 12 and 10. I've played them home videos, Disney vacation DVD's, everything but they act...

    To the CM's on the board: what is the one "tip" you can give us?

    I read the whole thread in one day. Didn't get much work done I guess. One time I was getting off of TT and saw this lady struggling to get out of the car. I think she had a spat with her husband or something because he just walked away. I noticed she couldn't walk so I immediately told my...

    Bus system virgins going all the way!

    I've stayed at Pop 3 times and 2 moderates and Sports. I would say by far the buses at Pop are the best. We drive in from Tennessee and never use the car until we leave. Can't wait until Dec. when we will be back with 4 of our family that have never been to WDW.

    Does Disney loan or rent wheelchairs or those powered scooters?

    I needed one for my mother in law and while making the reservation through Disney they recommended to me 2 outside vendors to rent from. You get to keep them the whole time you are there, much cheaper.

    My wife's father passed away last week. He always wanted to go to Disney with his daughter, me and our 2 kids but was never ever to make it due to health reasons.
