    1st Disney Cruise!!!

    We spent the day at Atlantis on November 15 and we had a fantastic time. That being said, I don't know if I will ever go back. It has always been on my bucket list to see The Atlantis and I was so excited to do it! I have also never been so scared in my life. We came out the front door from our...

    Just got off the Dream November 17 and sailed the Magic before refurb in January. My sister and I and our 6 and 14 yo DD's sailed with us both times.

    DS and DD meet Gaston: Definitely worth the wait!! (Video Link)

    We met Gaston in passing last year at the MNSSHP. I still think about it and laugh. My very cute teenage daughter was dressed as Belle for the party, and I barely noticed Gaston until he stopped in front of my "Belle" and showed her his bicep muscle. She just looked at him and laughed. He...

    What do YOU do in line?

    We bring a Disney trivia book and ask Disney questions. We also play 20 questions with one person coming up with a Disney character the rest of us have to try to figure out.

    Staying off-site?

    I have done both several times. We are a family of four with two daughters 13 & 15. I usually stay on property when they offer the free dining because it makes the cost comparable to staying offsite. We stayed at AOA LK suites in October and while it had a great theme, the resort was very loud...

    Kids love the disney cruise more than disney world!

    My DD 13 would rather do a cruise as well. She has been to WDW at least 15 times and I NEVER expected her to find something she loved more. We did the 8 night Magic out of Galveston in January, and she made friends from all over the US and Canada. They still keep in touch. What a great learning...

    The Dreaded Stomach Bug!

    Yes.. Sad isn't it? We are told we can not call in.. We have to show up and wait for coverage to get there (if they have someone) before we can go home. Would love to tell you where I work but can't due to "social media policy".

    Palo brunch

    My sister and I really enjoyed the brunch. They had different types of pizzas, cheeses, fruits, seafood (which we didn't like so didn't try), breads, rolls, sautéed vegetables, eggs Benedict, etc. I also think they had an omelet station. Out waitress was fantastic and I thought the food was...

    The Dreaded Stomach Bug!

    I had an Oscar party last Sunday night. My niece attended and had been throwing up the whole night before, but she's pregnant so we attributed it to that. Then Sunday night after the party, my other niece got it. Two days later my DD 13 and my sister got it. I was freaking out because I'm in...

    What was the age of your child when they rode R&R

    My DD rode when she was 4 - yes she was 48 inches tall. Literally a foot taller than most kids her age. I put her in kindergarten right after she turned 5 even though everyone said I should wait a year. I couldn't wait another year.. I was afraid she would look like Gulliver! Haha! Happily her...

    DHS- Realistically, how long will it take?

    Counter Service Breakfast in AK: GO!

    We always eat at Pizzafari for breakfast. It's not great, but it's something to eat. They have a breakfast platter that has sausage, eggs, and a French toast stick. I believe there is another place that serves breakfast sandwiches, etc down by Kilimanjaro Safaris. We sometimes see people lined...

    Deciding between 11/14-11/23 and 12/2-12/11 for WDW

    We have been several times in both November and December. We are going this year November 7-17. Crowds are similar.. Maybe a little busier in December. I think the biggest difference is weather. It's usually a little colder in December. Typhoon Lagoon is also usually closed in November and...

    Table Service in Downtown Disney?

    We ate at Raglan Road.. The Irish pub. There were 8 of us. Some of us loved the food, some didn't. The atmosphere was terrific though. If you like Irish fare, I would recommend it!

    Bringing first timers in December, what are must do's? Help me plan the magic!

    We always do the MVMCP. We have done it probably 10 times. We pick a night that will be less crowded (maybe a Tuesday) and schedule dinner at MK at Liberty Tree around 6pm. This gives the park time to clear out for the party. We then go ride a few rides in Fantasyland and wait for the...
