    DxDDP: Am I Doing It Wrong?

    We leave in the morning for our second 5n/6d WDW trip with the DxDDP. Last year, we only did three TS meals on one of the days and the rest of the days we did two. I kept track of our meal cost last year to see if the plan was worth it, and we saved a significant chunk of change, at least on...

    New Orleans Experts - Where to Stay? What to Do? Where to Eat?

    I am from New Orleans, and I highly recommend the Monteleone. Other great hotels to look into: Le Richelieu and Bienville House. Also there are many ghost tours, just google online. As far as a nice place for an anniversary dinner ( besides Commanders Palace, which is fabulous) try...

    24 hours

    We were originally going to be at HS on May 24 for SWW. Now we are planning on leaving around 5pm to head to MK for a dinner res at LTT. I think that the two adult men in our party are going to try and go all night. I would love to, but my DD7 will probably only make it until midnight. I am...

    Opinions for a Disney new comer?

    We went to 50's last year right before departure and it was a mad house due to it being a SWW and were late for our town car pick up. You may want to allow extra time if you aren't driving (ie need to catch Magical Express) since you will be there on a SWW day.

    Help! Surviving the dreaded "gimmies!!"

    I will definitely let you all know how it works out with the coupon book. My theory is that it will not only cut down on the gimmees, but also allow her to begin to plan and budget. I am hoping that she can use the experience to plan many Disney vacations in the future!

    I booked my dining reservations CRT?

    We ate at CRT last May and I think it was worth the cost because my DD had such a great time. The presentation of the princesses and the excitement of eating in the castle had her over the moon! However, it is expensive and the food portions were small (not nearly enough for DH). Also, it...

    Can anyone recommend DTD restaurants?

    Raglan Road was terrific! The food was great, atmosphere was fun and our server was amazing.

    I Will NEVER Eat At _______ In WDW Again!!

    I agree about CRT. It was worth it once for the eating in the castle experience, but the portions were tiny and the food was just okay. The only other place I didn't like was Akershus for dinner. The cold buffet was awesome, but the entrees were pretty awful. I have heard that Akershus is...

    Help! Surviving the dreaded "gimmies!!"

    I had success last year with setting down limits prior to the trip and discussing them frequently. The problem with that is I felt like an ATM machine that was constantly being asked what the balance was... so this year I am giving DD7 a coupon book. I made $5 coupons for her own spending...

    Labeling my stroller from home?

    Last year,we tied a brightly colored bandana to the handle so we could easily identify it among the masses, but unfortunately others had the same idea and red was a popular choice... I am rethinking this years strategy.

    Would you do MK half day on depature day?

    I only have one child who was 6 last year when we did HS on our last day and it was really stressful. We decided to do breakfast at Ohana this year instead.
