    PhotoPass Plus

    I'm attempting to edit and purchase our photopass CD right now. I know it's expensive, but I never quite get over the sticker shock. :scared1: I also managed to miss a 20% off promo code by 2 minutes earlier. :sad2: I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but their current deal is $30 off if...

    Coronado Springs Resort - New Unofficial FAQ Thread - November 2011

    Eh, a few days in when your feet hurt and you're exhausted, that walk from Ranchos 7A to El Centro is loooooong. From anywhere else, probably not so bad. As for the busses, it was really hit or miss, but we never waited more than 20 minutes, which is "technically" (I think) the approximate...

    **BUT** If you're on the dining plan they WILL NOT add the gratuity to your dinner bill. I repeat: WILL NOT. Even if you request they add it to your room charge, they won't do it. We were told "cash only!" when asking the cashier about adding the tip. This left us scrambling to tip our waiter...

    I don't know why we never figured that out! D'oh! :rolleyes: Thanks for the info! We'll know for next time.

    Coronado Springs Resort - New Unofficial FAQ Thread - November 2011

    I'm sort of reading backward here on the posts tonight. FYI about "water view." Your water view can also end up being the pool. - That was our "water view" at Riverside a few years ago. Yes, we PAID for that! :sad2: That kind of water view isn't so serene. It's actually usually kind of loud. I...

    Coronado Springs Resort - New Unofficial FAQ Thread - November 2011

    We're back from our trip! In general we really enjoyed CS. Here are a few observations/experiences: We were booked in the Ranchos section (7A). At first, no biggie, since we got the adjoining rooms we asked for and we were really close to bus stop #3. But, after a day or two of walking WDW we...

    DP credits for other things?

    This is what I know to be true. I'm wondering if she didn't misinterpret exactly WHAT can be purchased at the gift shops with credits. At the end of our trip last year we had tons of snack credits left, so we grabbed lots of snacky foods from the food court for the drive home. I think I only...

    DP credits for other things?

    I've never seen this brought up, or posted anywhere else (unless I missed something), so I doubt it's even true, but I thought if anyone would know, it would be here... So, my MIL called me last night and said she read online that unused dining credits can be redeemed for gift shop...

    Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique FAQ PART II - w/ Photos

    As far as shoes, Target has some adorable sparkle shoes out right now. I was just looking at them. Probably a little more comfortable than actual princess shoes. Walmart, oddly enough, sometimes has nice sparkle shoes too, but I haven't looked lately. Lastly, I also saw some at The Children's...

    Park Pet Peeves

    People on scooters gnawing on turkey legs. I can't explain it, except that the times we've almost been mowed down has almost always been by someone on a scooter with a big ol' turkey leg. So now, I get annoyed whenever I see a turkey leg and scooter in the same place. Don't gnaw and scooter...

    Dumb Tinkerbell question

    Seriously? DH always swears Tink is a real person and I always swear it's not. I still don't believe it! LOL!

    Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique FAQ PART II - w/ Photos

    We just went yesterday to the local Disney Store so the girls could pick out new princess dresses. I'm glad my youngest DD just turned 3 almost 2 weeks ago. We wouldn't be able to do BBB because she'd be really upset to miss out.

    Stuck on rides...

    Hubs and I got stuck on the Aerosmith coaster a couple years ago during EMH. Probably a good 30 minutes. All we could hear was "Love in an Elevator..." over and over and over again.

    What age..no more stroller

    You've never been to the Cincinnati Zoo in the summer then. Hilly as all get out and pretty good size. I know lots of people from around here who go to St. Louis. It's within a day's drive and people apparently like that big arch or something. I'm just gonna assume you don't have kids and...

    Coronado Springs Resort - New Unofficial FAQ Thread - November 2011

    As far as I understand, the free dining plans are available to everyone. It's just during certain dates (I think I even saw the dates listed on the planing DVD). We get discount codes all the time, but never for specifically free dining. This will be our 2nd year using it. Oh, and we had our TA...

    What age..no more stroller

    I pretty much count zoos in with amusement parks. Free or not, having to carry your worn out kid around a big place is no fun. And how many tourists hit St. Louis? Odds are great that a good many of them are on their one and only trip. I used to be one of those people who were all judgmental...

    What age..no more stroller

    There's a website out there who's sole purpose it to ridicule kids who are "too big" for strollers. (I forget the name.) The thing is, most of those photos are from amusement parks, where you'll often find kids in strollers who normally wouldn't be in one otherwise. Amusement parks are usually...

    Park Hopping or Not

    We are hoppers. I actually think it's a must with kids. We've been going since the oldest was 2, and she and her little sis have been great about it. We'll typically hit 2 parks in a day, but 3 isn't unheard of. If one park is too crowded, we'll head off to another. We might do one park in the...

    AAAAAaaaarrrrrgh! HELP!

    I definitely don't have a FP superiority complex. I don't care either way really. I'm just amused at the people who are foot stomping like my 3 year old. You're NEVER going back again? Canceling plans? Over a fast pass thing? Seriously? People who love WDW like nothing else shall never set foot...

    BBB help

    We just booked BBB for our girls last week (staying March 3-10), and MK was totally booked. We were also hoping to do it before our meal at Cinderella Castle, but no luck. Only DTD was available on a different day.
