This is our first time using gift cards to pay for part of our trip. I was concerned about using them throughout the park for food, etc. since at some meals I'd have to use mulitple cards ($25 denominations). Just to make sure, I can charged everything to my room and them use the gift cards to...

Thank you! With that helpful info, I think we'd be better off driving our car instead of waiting for the bus at CBR. We usually ride the bus everywhere but we've never wanted to be at a park so much earlier before rope drop. I'm guessing that might save us 30 minutes in the a.m.

Thanks for all the info! We're staying at CBR and I've been debating taking the buses (which is what we normally do) or driving our car. I know the car will be quicker but I was concerned that the parking lots wouldn't be open that early. To clarify, even if the parking lot attendants aren't...

This happenned to us. The first time we went they knew far in advance and it drove us nuts! The next year we woke them up when the car was packed and we were ready to go and they didn't react they way were hoping for. They were excited and we had a great time but I was expecting them to run...

I used to sub. How much learning happened when I was in the classroom was directly related to what plans the regular teacher left for me to use. I agree! I am a former teacher with a Masters Degree in Elementary Education and Early Childhood Education. I am currently certified in Elem...

I was wearing Acuvue Oasis. I get GPC build up when pollen is bad. Usually twice a year it flairs up and I can't wear contacts for 2 weeks. I have to go to the doctor and get Rx drops. I was worried about the costs of daily contacts but haven't had ANY problems at all. This spring my eyes...

Since you have a party of 8 I would choose Biergarten! You will get the whole table for your party and the atmosphere is so festive and fun. We went last year just the 4 of us and got seated with another family of 4. Their children were the same age as ours. We smiled and said hello when we...

They are hard to find. DS8 and DS5 are so into them. My mom friend's and I have bought for each other's children when we find them. We have those those though. Dh and I check anytime we're in Walmart or Target to see if there's any new ones and I put them up for things like their Easter...

There's not many places with kids meals we like. What we found is that we can easily split 1 adult meal between 2 people or 2 adults meals between all of us (myself, DH, DS7, DS5). For example, at the Harbor House the adult meal is huge! Most QS adult meals are more than enough for 2 people...

I hope you have fun! I'd love to hear about it when you get back.

Thank you for all the info and tips. And thank you for sharing your special memories. :hug: Sounds like a fun place to be with my favorite guys, DH, DS8, and DS5.

Thanks for the info! There's a $125 family of 4 pass that includes a counter meal for everyone. I may pick that. I was working the numbers and it's seems if you're going to do an attraction and eat a meal the pass isn't much more. Otherwise it looks like picnic and a hike, we'll be there by...

Bid on a Stone Mtn area hotel, ended up winning Marriot's Stone Mountain Inn which is inside the park. Just not sure what to do there.

:confused3 So many reviews--some that it's a great nature retreat, some that's it's Dollywood with ala carte attraction prices. We are going to the Lego Discover Center in Atlanta and then staying near Stone Mountain. We'll be there one evening and a whole day. DS8 and DS5 love the outdoors...

We used our last as credits @ the food ct in Pop. We got really good sandwiches for the cooler, chips, etc. for the drive home.

Since you like Y&Y that is probably a good choice for your family. But I wanted to give props to RFC. I haven't been to Y&Y but my kids really enjoy RFC. And I LOVE the Sparkling Volcano dessert. We go there (either DTD or AK) every year and share that huge dessert. We don't have a RFC...

Help! Any location advice for Atlanta GA? My sons love legos and we're going to take a quick overnight trip to Atlanta (about 3 hours away) to the new Lego Discovery Center (in Phipps Plaza). The next day we'll probably spend the day at the zoo or the aquarium before driving home. I plan on...

We love Germany and there are so many good TS but we decided after our last trip not to do TS at Epcot anymore. We enjoy trying a little something from every counrty and sharing. We hate passing up trying something different while touring a country and we also hate being so stuffed by the time...

I can't kick the habit. I'm 36 and learned in my keyboarding class in highschool that you should put 2 spaces after a period, colon, or semicolon. I type extremely fast but cannot stop hitting that space bar twice! Sometimes when typing an online form where there's a character limit I have to...

This happened to me at a popular hotel chain in Charleston, SC. My husband and I were putting our 2 year old to bed so it was very quiet and calm when all of a sudden 3 college aged boys walk into our room talking rather loudly to each other. It was quite a shock. They were polite and quickly...
