    DisneyQuest for 4 yr old girl?

    We have two vouchers for tickets to DisneyQuest. Is there anything there that will appeal to a 4 year old girl, or should we plan to have Dad and big brother visit DisneyQuest on their own and find something else for me to do with our daughter rather than paying for two more DisneyQuest tickets...

    Where can we see Daisy Duck?

    Is she around in the parks somewhere? Is she at Tusker House? DD really wants to see her.

    Adding guests at arrival for Ohana dinner?

    I already have reservations for 4 at 5:00 at Ohana. Turns out my inlaws are going to join us for a couple of days at Disney as they will be RVing their way through Florida when we will be there. I was not able to add 2 more people to my reservation, but the CM I spoke with said that if we...

    Do you need to buy a Disney World book for a first vacation?

    I got the 2012 version of this one from my local library. I was glad I had read it. The internet has been great for getting answers to specific questions, but I felt like the book really helped me get a better idea of what to expect as a whole on the trip.

    car seats in cabs?

    Do the cabs at WDW have car seats or booster seats for kids? We will mostly use the bus system, but I'm wondering if a cab is an option for a couple of trips when it will be late night and we'll be trying to get tired kids back to the resort as easily as possible.

    Buses vs. parking in the off season?

    We'll be at WDW at the end of January-early February. We are driving, so we'll have our own car there, and staying at POR. I had initially assumed that we would use the bus system and not worry with driving around, but now I'm wondering if that is really what we want to do. Will we spend a...

    Is there an affordable way to park hop for just one day?

    Ok, thanks. I was thinking it would be unlikely! We will have 6 parks days and I think 3 for MK and then 1 day each for the others, but I keep waffling. Ideally, a day and half for Epcott would be great, but I don't know that it will be worth the money. We'll plan to just see how it goes once...

    Is there an affordable way to park hop for just one day?

    For instance, can we buy a 7 day ticket for only 6 days, and use two days of tickets to get into two different parks on the same day? I'm guessing not, but just thought I'd ask. I keep waffling on park hopper. I think there is only one day of our week when we would take advantage of it, so it...

    How strict are CMs with height restrictions

    I (the OP) am certainly not trying to teach my kids to cheat the rules or that rules don't apply to them. I asked the question because there are some things that can influence exactly how tall a person measures - the shoes they wear, how early in the day it is, how accurate whatever device they...

    How strict are CMs with height restrictions

    Those are some TALL boys for that age. My daughter who is almost 42" is almost 5 years old and average height for her age. And no, she really wouldn't want to ride the hard core rides if she saw them, but she doesn't like being told that she can't do what big brother can do. :)

    How strict are CMs with height restrictions

    Thanks! I definitely understand the rules are safety based and important. I had thought there were some that were 42 inches, but I just went back through, and as others have said, it won't be an issue. She's clearly above 40 inches and not close to 44. She has known all along that she will be...

    How strict are CMs with height restrictions

    My daughter is just slightly under 42 inches. Are they flexible at all, or should I prepare her in advance for not being able to ride things that have 42 inch restriction?

    Packing for Jan trip- shorts needed?

    We are going at the end of the month and I'm planning to pack a little of everything so that we'll be prepared for whatever weather we end up with. We are driving, though, so that does make packing lots of things easier.

    Please advise on a couple of transportation issues

    First DW trip (well almost...I was there as a child in 1978, but we have not been as a family) coming up later this month for family of four (kids are 4 and 7). We are staying at POR and expect to primarily use the Disney bus system for getting around. I think that will work well for most or...

    Do I need to have a touring plan?

    First trip to Disney coming up at the end of the month. Two kids - ages 4 (almost 5) and 7. Not having been before, I feel like it is very hard to plan because I really don't know how it will go - will we need lots of breaks? Will we want to sleep in some in the mornings or would we rather get...

    How much do you tip for buffets?

    A lot of our ADRs are for character meal buffets. What is expected/typical for tipping for those types of meals?

    Help! I am confused about FP+

    I've seen snippets here and there but nothing that is really giving me a complete explanation. Is this something that I need to know about for our trip Jan 27? (I haven't been to DW since 1978, so essentially the first trip and I'm clueless!) Is this something I can sign up for, or is it...

    WCC Huge disappointment

    What is the "gimmick" with this restaurant? Is there a show or something? We have reservations for our trip in late January because I had heard that WCC has great food and is a lot of fun, but now I'm thinking that I should switch to something else.

    PO Riverside or French Quarter - which one and why?

    Family of four traveling at the end of January for a week for our first Disney trip - kids are 4 and 7. Would you recommend PO Riverside or French Quarter? What are pros and cons of each? I'm leaning toward Riverside only because I thought one of the Royal rooms would be fun for the kids. I had...
