    First Trip to Hawaii / Aulani - Our Trip Report

    I just cancelled our upcoming trip to Aulani. After reading your TR and seeing all your photos, I feel I've now been there and so you've saved me a ton of money! JK, we're planning our "one and done" trip for July 2019 and your TR has been very helpful. Thanks and glad to see you all had such...

    What time does Disney Springs parking lot(s) open? Help!

    We drove down to Orlando over the last two days and we're renting a house for the first time instead of staying on WDW property. We have a parasailing reservation at Sammy Duval's out of the Contemporary on Monday at 10am. My plan was to drive to Disney Springs and park for free, then take a...

    Wizarding World of HP Question - Base Ticket or Park to Park Ticket??

    It's been awhile since we were at Universal and our daughter would love to see the newest section of the WWoHP that opened since we were last there. This will be a one day only deal for us. Am I correct that we're going to need a Park to Park ticket instead of a Base Ticket (that gets us into...

    Water Spouts & Strawberry/Banana Twist Ice Cream!

    Our fishing tour was on Father's Day and there was a car show at DTD that day as well. Some of the cars were parked in the lot where our Mercury was parked at POFQ so we had a bit of a private little tour of the cool cars all to ourselves. A replica of the Griswald's Truckster from National...

    Water Spouts & Strawberry/Banana Twist Ice Cream!

    We got to play mini-golf with Goofy and Max while in port at Nassau: Lauren had ice cream and watched Hercules on the Funnel Vision (I watched too): Robin and Lauren rode the Aqua Duck together and the Lauren and I rode the Aqua Duck together. We rode it at night too, which was a blast...

    Water Spouts & Strawberry/Banana Twist Ice Cream!

    Our first ever family vacation was in 2002 when our daughter was 5 years old. We decided to make it the All-American driving vacation to Walt Disney World! We live north of Chicago and now that we've made the trip to Orlando many times since that first adventure, it's a two day driving breeze...

    Let's see your refrigerator!! (Decorated with Disney!)

    I'll go first! Of course, it started with our first trip to WDW in 2002. I bought a magnetic photo frame and a pin from the CBR. I didn't really know what to do with the pin once I got it home so I cut off the tack on the back and superglued a magnet there instead. Ta-da! Now...

    Free Mickey Ears Photo at POFQ!

    I have always found the Disney bus drivers to be courteous and safe. But you still need to be sure you don't get hit in the face by one:

    Free Mickey Ears Photo at POFQ!

    Just a public service announcement for those heading to Port Orleans French Quarter: Don't forget to get a photo with your free Mickey Ears in the lobby as you walk through. They work during the day, but they're really great in the evening! One size fits all!

    POP Century preferred vs. Port Orleans FQ

    We're here at POFQ right now on our last night of six nights. We have not waited for a bus for more than 5 minutes the entire time! I really think some people get a bad day here and there for the bus service. All I can say it that it's been flawlessly perfect this week in June. We love...

    What kind of beverages are included? Water and Lemonade or more?

    This is our first time cruising with Disney! We're so excited, we may just burst! We've been on Carnival, Royal Caribbean, and Norwegian so we're interested to compare. On those other ships, water and lemonade are included with the cruise. On one of the ships, they also had red punch...

    Fort Wilderness Cabin Questions…?

    We're driving to Port Canaveral for a 4-night cruise on the Disney Dream. Then we're driving to WDW to stay at POFQ for 6 nights. We have 2 left over Park Hopper tickets (already on our Magic Bands) from a stay in 2010. The plan is to do a few things we've never done at WDW before…like sleep...

    As you can see from my signature, we're Disnuts since 2002! We took our first family vacation then with our 5 year old daughter as the "All American drive from Illinois down to Florida" classic summer vacation. And we loved it! So much that we went back to WDW again and again and again...
