    January or February

    My family and I are thinking of making a trip to WDW in either January or February of 2016. Partly because the rates are so cheap (we like renting points) and we live in the cold snowy Midwest and figured that would be a good time to go since we will probably be stir crazy by then. I know that...

    Grocery delivery to Port Orleans?

    Gardengrocer.com. Using them for my stay in October. They get great reviews from all the guidebooks and several websites. I used a different delivery service in 2011 and had great result. Well worth it to get snacks for the family

    DIS Dads - Gaming Thread

    I saw the same article on IGN.com also. I bought SimCity on Monday afternoon and installed it and realized that my PC probably doesn't have enough RAM to run it. So I am off to the store tonight to buy more RAM and possibly a new graphics card. The game is awesome just make sure you have enough...

    how to convince kids who refuse to try a ride

    I was one of those kids that got pushed onto a ride by my dad. When I was 7 my dad tricked me into going on BTMRR. He told me that it was a nice little train ride and I basically screamed my head off for the whole thing. I have been back to WDW about 5 times since then and have never been on it...

    Which park do you visit twice?

    We always do 2 days at MK. I wouldn't do it any other way. You can do EPCOT, HS, and AK all in one day easy but MK usually has the longer lines for just about everything.

    My DW, DD, and myself stayed at CSR in Nov of last year and loved every second of it. We found the place to be very nice and never has any problems with CM. The only problem we had was that we ordered some groceries from a local store to be delivered to the room upon arrival. We arrived very...
