    Anyone ever use lyft or uber from orange county airport

    I had Uber Black pick me up at John Wayne for the Avengers Half Marathon weekend. They confirmed their regular cars aren't allowed in but Black and SUV can. Also the Uber driver said he couldn't pick up at Arrival (which makes sense). I guess some idiot was on the Arrival area and wanted the...

    2014 DL Avengers Half Marathon Weekend 11/14-11/16!!!

    Question about race transportation. On the RunDisney site, they talk about free shuttle for the outlying hotels and getting a receipt for the race weekends. Somewhere I saw that Hotel Menage was on that route but the desk gal knew nothing about it. While it would be nice to take the shuttle...

    Official Avengers Super Hero Half Marathon Weekend 2014 Thread!

    I'm staying at Menage. It's my "Go-to" place since the Disney properties are horridly expensive. It's a nice warm up jog over to the DL Hotel. The tiki bar there is nice and you have the best view of fireworks from their pool area or the walkways from the pool view rooms. I've heard there is a...

    Official Avengers Super Hero Half Marathon Weekend 2014 Thread!

    This is my first half-marathon. Actually this is the first time I'm running without people chasing me. I've never liked running but my friend Cindy is now addicted to these runs. I saw the medals, coveted them and now I'm going to run over 13 miles! The scary thing, as I've been whipping my...

    Date for Formal Night

    Cool! I'll get sewing. I think a tux jacket with a Hawaiian shirt. I would want him to fit in. I don't want to be weird or anything. You guys are great!

    Date for Formal Night

    He hates it when I leave him in the Stateroom by himself. He gets bored and then he starts destroying things. :)

    Date for Formal Night

    Hey DISers! I'm going on my second cruise solo. Do you think anyone will mind if I bring my giant stuffed Stitch as my date?

    June 1, 2015 Wonder to Alaska

    Hey Everyone! This is my first Alaska cruise. I did the 4 day Bahamas cruise on the Dream in February of 2013 so I'm looking forward to this. I'm probably traveling solo (was with my sister on the last cruise). I met some fabulous DIS peeps on the last cruise and we still talk nearly every day.

    Flying Fish Cafe or bluezoo????

    Blue Zoo all the way! The Flying Fish has been sliding. The food has become a bit pedestrian and overly salty. Blue Zoo has always been outstanding in flavor, presentation and atmosphere. If you want the best seafood in WDW, it's Blue Zoo.

    Club 33 entrance moving and club expansion

    Hey all, I was on the Walk in Walt's Footsteps tour 2 weeks ago. The Cast Member host told us in Club 33 that the closure was looking to start sometime in October and last for a year. Honestly I would LOVE it if they will start later (2014) because my friend who works at ABC can get us in but...

    Menage Resort

    I adore Menage! I've stayed there three times this year and recommend it to my friends. I drive so can't speak to walking though I walk farther from public transport to work. I've been on the parking lot/back side of the hotel and have never heard the freeway. The rooms are chic for the money...

    Park Vue Inn VS Hotel Menage?!? HELP!

    Menage is my "go to" hotel when I can't get GC or DLH on my friends Silver Pass discount. It's fab, re-furbished with a grotto pool, firework viewing pool side, tiki bar and secure parking. Great price with an AP discount. It is also dog friendly. In fact, I will be there on Friday!

    For those of you with Disneyland AP's....

    I have the Premiere Pass. I live in Nor Cal, am going to WDW in January and write Disney Guidebooks so it just makes sense to me. It saves money and I love that The Mouse is now tax deductible for me!

    Thin walls on dream/fantasy?

    Just sailed on the Dream. In fact we had some DISers next to us. They apologized for the noise their baby made and my response was "what baby?"

    February cruisers, hows the weather?

    We took an early February cruise on the Dream and it was lovely. We heard it rained the week before but for our trip it was in the low to mid 70's. I laid out on the top deck for a bit in Nassau and had no issues with chill. I would pack layers just in case.

    Why is the coffee so terrible?!?!

    The Nescafe they sreve is awful! This is why I drink more booze. When DCA got a Starbucks as part of their huge CarsLand/Hollywood renovation I just about kissed the ground it stood on. Not only is it better coffee than the Nescafe swill but it is the most beautiful starbucks I have ever...

    Have you had any "pixie dust" moments without kids?

    I get those moments all the time and I never go with kids. Even got a free cocktail from a certain deluxe resort bar who took one look at my shell shocked face and said "Magic Kingdom?", I nodded. "Too many kids?" I nodded again. "You need this." and gave me a drink. Ended up getting another...

    Fantasyland Expansion

    The Ariel ride is actually at DCA (right next to the San Francisco area of the Park - Palace of Fine Arts) not in Disneyland. I thought it was well done and can't wait to see what they did with it at the Magic Kingdom. With the scope and real estate they have, I'm sure it is very grand! Four...

    How many guests will be expecting beer at Gaston's Tavern?

    By chance does the "beer" at Gaston's Tavern look like Red's Apple Freeze from Cars Land in DCA? http://www.guide2wdw.com/images/2012%20News/Cozy-Cone-Reds-Apple-Freeze-4.jpg because if The Mouse is using the same beverage with a different name, that stuff is YUMMY (even if there is no booze...

    How do you choose????

    I go for the resort that resonates with me. My first stay was at All Star Music, then Port Orleans, after that Wilderness Lodge and now that I've stayed at a Deluxe, I can't go back. I budget for the place I want to stay. Ever since then it's been WL and Animal Kingdom Lodge as those feel...
