    The Wave.....wow! :)

    I had the herb salt seasoned beef tenderloin---every bite was perfect, and I actually liked it better than the steak I had at Le Cellier (a few years ago). I had the dessert trio and ate every bite. :). DH had the German Chocolate Cake and loved it.

    The Wave.....wow! :)

    We were there this past week and got a somewhat last-minute dinner reservation at The Wave....of American Flavors at the Contemporary. It ended up being our favorite meal of the trip! Both the food and the service were outstanding. And since the dress code is "theme park attire" we walked in...

    Great Movie Ride for snake-phobic person?

    Hello! We have never done the Great Movie Ride but I've always been kind of intrigued by it. We'll be there later this month, and one person in our party has a huge--and I do mean huge--fear of snakes. Are we better off just skipping this ride altogether? Thanks for any insight into this!

    ECV on an as-needed basis?

    Thank you for this great and helpful information! My mom is definitely going to do the offsite rental. It will be so reassuring to know that she'll be able to park the ECV safely and then have it whenever she may need it--it will make things a lot less stressful, no doubt. Thanks again...

    ECV on an as-needed basis?

    We will be there in mid-December--me, dh, kids, plus my parents (side note: it will be my parents' first-ever time there!! We are so excited for them to experience everything :)). My mom recently had cancer. She is cancer-free now:thumbsup2 but will still be in the midst of chemo while on...

    Celebrate the Magic during MVMCP?

    This coming December will be our first non-summer trip. In addition, we are going with my parents, who have never been to Disney World, ever! We are so excited for so many reasons. :). Anyway, does anyone know if the celebrate the magic castle projection show is done before holiday wishes...

    Sci Fi non-car seating: how is the view of the screen?

    We ate at sci fi for the first time last summer and loved it. There were only 5 of us so we easily fit into a car. We are going back this December with a larger party (7 of us) and I'm considering Sci Fi again. I know we won't all fit into one car, and that's fine; it's more the overall...

    BBB princess bun hairstyle

    Huh. My dd has straight-across bangs, and both times we've done BBB they asked me whether I wanted her bangs down or pulled/gelled back into the rest of her hair (2 visits, 2 different stylists). Both times I opted for bangs down--she's never not had bangs, and I don't even think she would...

    BBB princess bun hairstyle

    Oh yeah, that 'do doesn't move! My dd has very fine, "slippery" hair, and I was amazed at how firmly her BBB bun stayed in place! You will be fine for the next morning. :)

    Did I make a mistake?

    I don't think you'll regret it! We stayed at Poly for the first time last August and have now sworn that we'll never stay anywhere else! Location is excellent, grounds are beautiful, and our room was stunningly sparkling clean (and I am notoriously picky about hotel cleanliness). The ability...

    Help a December newbie, please!

    Just booked a short trip for early December 2013....I couldn't be more excited!! Our other trips have been in the summer, so we really can't wait to see everything done up for Christmas (it's been a dream of mine for a while now :))! We will have 3 full days to do to the parks. I am...

    I now understand!

    Yes! Yes! Yes! We took our first-ever trip in 2011. Before we went I figured "one and done. we'll be able to say we've taken the kids to Disney, and then we can cross it off of our list." Wrong!!!! On the flight home (as I was in tears at having to leave the most magical place on earth)...

    How to Organize a MK Day with BBB and Cinderella's Royal Table

    First of all, I would definitely suggest BBB first and then CRT! She will always remember being a "princess" in the castle. :) You could schedule your BBB appointment for a time before the park opens (you will get let in early). We did this when we were there this summer, and it was an...

    Just back from Poly...loved it!

    ...and in my original post I forgot to mention the sheer beauty of the grounds...so nice to walk around, especially at night when the torches are lit. :) Just getting from point A to point B was a treat!

    Just back from Poly...loved it!

    Since this was our first stay at the Poly, I have nothing to compare it to....but I honestly thought that the Tokelau building was perfect, given its central location. We didn't have too far of a walk to any one thing, and it was such a quiet and peaceful location. I had also read that the...

    Just back from Poly...loved it!

    First time staying there, and I have to say everything was perfect! We were in Tokelau, 3rd floor. Our room was absolutely sparkling clean (and I am verrrry picky about hotel cleanliness). I loved the huge vanity in the bathroom--perfect for spreading out all of our stuff and we still had...

    Am I the Only One Who Feels Down After Its Over?

    We took our first-ever family Disney trip last year and I was soooo not prepared for that post-Disney sadness. We have had many great (non-Disney) vacations over the years, and I always get a little bit of that "post-vacation/re-entering the real world" letdown---but nothing like coming home...

    Getting in the Mood for Disney!

    Yes! Yes! I can relate! This weekend we are seeing Disney on Ice:100 Years of Magic. Knowing that it's coming up in a few days has upped my Disney mood exponentially (of course I'm always in the Disney mood though), and I feel like it will hold us until our trip this summer! Have fun...
