    Late arrival to MK on NYE

    Hi, everyone. We'll be arriving at the WL midmorning on NYE. I know the traffic getting into the parks will be nuts that day. We're planning on going to the MK and staying through the fireworks, but other than just "being there," we don't really have any other expectations for that day. My...

    PLEASE! Help! if you grew up in the 80's...

    I'm too slow...I was going to ask if it was the Drew Barrymore one, too. :) Here's part of it from YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdkzAm6nKgQ

    Ordering steaks in USA

    My brother used to be a waiter at a steakhouse in Washington, DC. He always asked customers to order it just as you've described, where you tell the waiter what you want it to look like (e.g. not pink/red). Then he would translate it to the kitchen. There doesn't seem to be a lot of...

    Travel Insurance?

    If you're USAA members, their travel insurance is great. Similar coverage to other providers and cheaper. For our trip, other estimates were about $125. We got the same coverage from USAA for $75.

    Touring Plans and "Lines" App???

    Yes...there's a "browser app" that you can access via the internet. It looks just like a big version of the phone app.

    Wishes Dessert Party ADR Watch Thread December 1-29 2012 Now Open!

    I think I'm going to try some reverse psychology: I don't really care if August opens up. Nope. Take your time, Disney. Oh, who am I kidding....COME ON ALREADY. Fingers crossed for tomorrow!

    I don't smoke, but if I ever get this party reserved for August, I feel like I'm going to need a cigarette. :)

    Official September 2012 planning thread! List on page 30!

    In terms of getting adding to the list, I don't think I've seen basketkat (who took over managing the list) post anything since early April. I believe her daughter was having adenoid surgery. I hope all is well and she's just busy with everyday stuff.

    Tinkerbell at Polynesian?

    Thanks to everyone for the help. I didn't think you could see Tink from the Poly, but I thought I'd check. We'll probably just do a dinner at 'Ohana and then watch the fireworks from the beach. We were also planning on doing the dessert party at MK on another night, so my sis can get a...

    Tinkerbell at Polynesian?

    Ok...I've been digging around online for something without any luck, and I know if I just post the question here, 15 people will give me the answer (along with the complete backstory and recommendations for other options). :) So here it is: I'm planning a trip to WDW for late Aug/early...

    DHS touring plan help, please?

    I'm so glad I asked this question. I was totally leaning towards just doing an afternoon and then staying for Fantasmic. It'll just be me and my DD5, so the idea of all the shuttling back and forth for a mid-day break was sounding like a big hassle. But it sounds like it will be worth it...

    DHS touring plan help, please?

    The crowd level predicitions for the days we're looking at are pretty low (2-4), so that's why I'm wondering if it's worth it to do the break in the middle. I might just have to wait and see how things are going once we're there (lord forbid I don't plan every last detail out to the...

    DHS touring plan help, please?

    Hello! I'm looking for some advice on a touring plan for DHS. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. I'm planning on doing one day at DHS during our upcoming trip in late Aug/early Sept. I have two DHS options going: Option 1: RD @ DHS, take a break in the afternoon, come back for...

    CRT for breakfast or dinner?

    Thanks, everyone! This is all really helpful....although I think I'm back to being undecided. ;)

    CRT for breakfast or dinner?

    Wendy31, this is very helpful...thank you! I think I had some sort of CRT blinders on and forgot that there are other places to do b'fast in MK. I think we'll keep CRT for dinner and do CP on a different morning. BTW, thanks for linking to your trip report...it's fabulous! We're going in...

    CRT for breakfast or dinner?

    I'm sure this question has been posted before, so my apologies in advance, but has anyone done CRT both for breakfast and dinner (not on the same day)? I'm wondering if you had a preference? Was the atmosphere better at one or the other? I originally had planned on an early CRT dinner...
