    No Potatoes!?! A November 2014 DL trip report UPDATE 1/29

    Thanks for reading along! (I'm Ben, the DH :goodvibes) Since we had long ago been at DLR once for about a minute, and have since essentially memorized WDW, our previous impression was that they were basically identical with respect to cross-over rides and MK/DL layout. Joyce got perhaps...

    Summer's over and I'm sad. So let's start a pre-trip report! Feb 2015 *update 1/7*

    Since we have AP vouchers, we technically could be at the parks today, so we've been checking what FP+s are currently available. We schedule what we'd want if teleportation were a thing, fine-tune them for practice, and then cancel them :rotfl:

    A Savanna, A Wizard, and Oodles of Food - AKL/DxDP/WWoHP (COMPLETE!)

    Just joining in! :goodvibes I know it's been infinity days since your trip, so good job on keeping with it! AKL is a beautiful resort--though Disney does a great job with all of them! Not sure if you read Joyce's TR when we stayed at AKL, but we had a fantastic view... :rolleyes1 Her name was...

    Summer's over and I'm sad. So let's start a pre-trip report! Feb 2015 *update 1/7*

    Just for a bit of clarification, I absolutely LOVED HalloWishes and thought the the Boo-To-You Parade was amazing (grave diggers and ballroom dancers, I'm looking at you!). That said, I thought the Christmas Party Wishes and parade were OK and not something I'd need to see again. We do try to...

    Summer's over and I'm sad. So let's start a pre-trip report! Feb 2015 *update 1/7*

    TiW is fantastic, and it is sad that it's not universally taken anymore. We'll definitely have to review that ahead of time. With no TiW and no Remy, then we might ditch this one as well. We went to Victoria & Albert's a few years ago, and even THEY took TiW--the discount on that single...

    Show No Fear! DIS Exclusive Viva Italia+DLP TR Sept 2014*COMPLETE* New TR link added 7/3

    Reading along and caught up! Rome is a place I've always wanted to go, so it's fun to follow along with a Disney eye. So far it looks like a great trip! :goodvibes That food tour sounded awesome! It's like F&W, but wandering one HUGE Italy pavilion. I hear you on wishing you could have...

    Boma Breakfast is tasty, but it would be a drive compared to a walk to Olivia's...

    Dole Whip is a Dish Best Served Cold. A Sept PTR- 10/2 - TR POSTED!

    Sorry for the super late comment as you're already on your trip (maybe back?). I just started checking DIS again after a very long time... Sending my best to your cousin, and I hope your hand doesn't slow down your trip! Glad to see Germany made your PTR! I've traveled a lot in Europe for...

    My, What an Interesting Carpet Bag~A Dec. 2013 TR!*Remember Me?!*PTR for May 2015 Link, pg 23!*

    Hope your trip is going (went) well! I've hardly looked at DIS in the last year since we hadn't gone in so long, but I've finally come out from under my Disney rock! :thumbsup2 If for no other reason, please do a TR for your recent trip so that I can use it as "homework" for my first...

    It's Been How Long Since Your Last Disney Trip?!? 06/22 This Isn't Goodbye

    Hurray for the Grand Floridian! Now that they've got DVC, we'd like to stay there--though it would probably be so many points we'd cry ;) Where were you planning to stay in St. Lucia? Joyce and I LOVED it there. The entire island culture was amazing--so friendly! We might also have a soft...

    It'll Be All Right -A May 2012 TR Closing Thought and PTR Link 8/12*

    A few trips ago Joyce and I had just finished an adult beverage filled long series of Kim Possible missions in Epcot when we decided to go through the single-rider line at Test Track. There was a family of 5 in front of us that took up the 3 front seats and then the 2 outside seats in the...

    "I'm Speaking Italian." A Food&Wine trip around the World October 2012 *NEW 11/25

    The rest of us had never seen it and Joyce nailed it with a straight face when she just told us it was a film strip to the soundtrack. When it literally started that way, we were all "seriously? eh, at least we're sitting". She was quite proud of her deception :goodvibes I thought it was...

    "I'm Speaking Italian." A Food&Wine trip around the World October 2012 *NEW 11/25

    I think it was two things... 1) There was a guy and a girl (probably both late teens) that we couldn't figure out if they were siblings or dating. They would awkwardly fight and also awkwardly hug and seemed to be with their parents (or one of their parents) and a younger sibling. Depending...

    "Santa pants. Santa Claus's pants."~A November 2012 PTR!*NEW TR LINK pg 23! 11/20!*

    Glad you're OK! We got off pretty easy...no flooding or damage, only small to medium branches down, only lost power at 8pm (so we played Gin and drank beer while it was still cold!) and then we got power back while we slept. Hurray for single digits! News! I'm tentatively taking a quick...

    "Santa pants. Santa Claus's pants."~A November 2012 PTR!*NEW TR LINK pg 23! 11/20!*

    After doing MNSSHP, I'm looking forward to the Christmas Party...probably in 2015 or so for us...:rotfl: Joyce and I aren't parade people, but we saw the Halloween parade and it was awesome! We also did the Keys to the Kingdom tour and saw people practicing for the Christmas parade off far...

    It'll Be All Right -A May 2012 TR Closing Thought and PTR Link 8/12*

    I bet next time that crabby lady will just get a scooter. Have you noticed the ridiculous number of scooters these days? In the MK we saw a FAMILY of them...mom, dad, grandma, AND 15 year old boy...guess he didn't want to be left out. Strollers are nuts, too. We were on a bus from the...

    How Are The Newly Weds Today? An Italian Wedding & Disneymoon Extravaganza! *UpDate*

    Phew, what an update! :) Maybe we will try out a Disney cruise in the next couple of years. Quick question--how was the kid situation? Was the pool area nuts like at many Disney resorts? Where there quiet areas and bar areas for adults only? Not to sound anti-child, but if I'm on vacation...
