    Be Our Guest ... can this really be true?

    Yes, it's excellent. Really pleased they put it back after taking it off the menu a while back. Given the efforts Disney generally seem to be going with both veggie and vegan dishes now, the revised BOG menu is a really strange one. I'll be taking the ham out of the croque monsieur, I guess.

    Tastings. What Did You Like/Dislike?

    Any verdict on the "Kick-Start Your Cruise Vacation Tasting (21+)" - availability for our August 5th cruise has just popped up? $38 feels a bit much given there's more non-booze than booze included (don't judge me!)... "To celebrate the start of your vacation, sample and learn about our...

    Tastings. What Did You Like/Dislike?

    I've read that but with an Onboard time of 4:45, the 4:30-5:30 Mixology can't be on the island and the 3:30-4:30 Champagne Tasting wouldn't leave much time to spare if that wasn't on the ship.

    Tastings. What Did You Like/Dislike?

    Thanks for this thread - really interesting! We booked our upcoming cruise (August 5th) a week or so ago so everything was booked up, but I've managed to snag, from cancellations presumably, both Champagne Tasting and Mixology. Unfortunately they are back to back 3:30-4:30 and 4:30-5:30, and...

    Embarkation - where do you go?

    We've only just booked for the August 5th Dream sailing so wasn't surprised to find all the tasting sessions already booked up, although I did manage to snag a Champagne tasting earlier today - presumably from someone else's cancellation. So, I'm intrigued at those who sign up for these when...

    Getting redirects for "Java update" malware

    Did anything happen with this? I've started getting the same on a site I run - it seems to be coming from somewhere in the Adsense network.

    Breakfast when at the Chancery Court (London)

    As an avid podcast listener, I thought I would pop by having stayed at the Chancery Court this weekend when in London. I had a vague recollection I'd heard Pete mention this hotel when on an ABD trip and a quick search has confirmed that he did stay there and folk who are taking London/Paris...

    Live from the Dream 8/25 Sailing

    Also 'live on the Dream'. Our server at the Enchanted Garden said the rumour was return to Nassau but that it could prove to be wrong. Towards the end of our early sitting dinner, Captain Henry came on to tell us the (bad) news. He said that clean-up was taking place at CC so it could welcome...

    Roll up for the mystery tour!

    In a few hours we'll be leaving the Hard Rock in Orlando to head to Port Canaveral to take our first Disney cruise. Our first cruise of any flavour, in fact. And, thanks to Irene, who knows where we'll be going? Anyone? Does anyone know? How fun is that?!? I'll tell you - mucho fun...

    Sailing 8/25. Do they cancel if a cat 1 hurricane is in the area?

    Chill Bev, chill. There's more than enough rooms in Orlando to ensure you'll have somewhere to sleep.

    If you had won dinner with the podcat team where would you go?

    It has to be Cosmic Ray's surely/Shirley. I'd love to see Pete, Kevin and the rest of the gang get dirty with a burger topped-up to the max!

    Crystal Palace Lunch

    Always open for lunch. I think you are confusing it with Chef Mickey which has been opened for lunch during free dining.

    Official~ Having a Dole Whip in honor of Bob "Bawb" Varley

    In 12 trips to the World, I've never had a Dole Whip. I'm there again in a little over a week and will gladly toast Bob with my first Dole Whip.

    Disney News says new discount coming...

    At Expedia.com I'm getting most of those special rates for my dates 18/8 - 25/8. If I add on another day though, I don't get the special rates. It seems to depend on how you search for the hotels too - go to the front page of Expedia.com and search for Orlando hotels and then narrow down to...
