Snow last Wednesday, 50s and high 60s this coming week. Wish it would just stay one way! Congrats to all the winners, hope my...

    if you won the Disney Flip Side Contest

    I've given probably way too much thought about this (along with everyone else lol). I think my first choice would be POR. It's a resort I'm comfortable with, it's beautiful and has decent food. And if the taxes we have to pay on the prize are based on price, it would be cheaper than a deluxe :)

    Disney's Magical Express -- Luggage Tag Info

    Since you're all staying at the same resort using any of the tags will work. The luggage will just end up in the wrong room is all.

    Port Orleans Riverside and French Quarter Room Request Fax Thread

    When my family went last March I faxed in 5 days prior to our arrival and we were lucky and received a phone call like an hour later! Totally unexpected!!! So yes they do pay attention to faxes!!

    What temp is your heat set at?

    We don't use our furnace since we have a wood stove. Our family room (where it's located) stays anywhere from 72-85 depending on how much we "crank it up", lol we like it warm and toasty in there! We have a fan in the wall that pushes the warm air to our living room and hallway leading to the...

    WWYD? Yes another teacher issue. Update pg. 5

    Wowzers. The teacher reminds me of the idiot my son had last year for science. My son wasn't ever put in danger, but the teacher lacked common sense. So glad the district didn't renew him. Hope your kids teacher doesn't have the last name "Baldwin"....

    What is the MDE app good for?

    We went to WDW in March and used the app and it was great! Added dining reservations, swapped Fast Passes on the go, used the maps to look up specific places! No complaints at all from me! Sent from my iPhone using DISBoards

    Fear of flying....

    My husband hates flying (the no control part, plus heights). We flew this past March to WDW (direct flight, because that's was the only way he was going) and what helped him was talking to the flight attendants and letting them know his fear, cranking the music on his iPhone (earbuds in place of...

    Dear Walmart

    When our Walmart has 3 people in each line and the wait looks long, I get on my cell phone and call the store and tell them they need to get more registers open. Never fails. Within a minute they make an announcement for any CSMs available to come check out. Sent from my iPhone using DISBoards

    When you spend $25 you get this item for $15?

    We were there a month ago and it was a tote bag. I can't remember the price or color but it was cute. Just didn't want/need one. Hopefully someone has a pic of it. Sent from my iPhone using DISBoards

    wifi use and MDE

    Hi! We just returned on March 24th. I have an IPhone 5 with Verizon. I had my phone set up to automatically join the wifi at the parks and resort. I would say 95% of the time we had great service. Inside buildings obviously we had some issues of it taking forever to connect to MDE but most of...

    Theme Park Parking Fee Increase Tomorrow (update in first post)

    In 2011 Disney (Florida) paid over $87 million in property taxes....someone has to pay for that. So before you gripe over a lousy $2 parking fee increase you should check the figures of what it takes to run a HUGE company like Disney. My husband and I are both self employed and totally get it...

    Don't cancel your vacations yet!!!

    We just returned this past Monday from an 11 night stay at POR. I have to say our trip went pretty great and I really loved the whole magic bands and fast passes thing. Worked perfect every time, we were able to change things on the go and do most everything we wanted to. We did not add the...

    What Disney Tip Are you really glad you listened to?

    Solan pas for the hubby's sore back; gold bond powder for my feet; ginger capsules for my son (he thought they worked better than his motion sickness pills); multiple pairs of shoes for swapping daily; water flavor stuff; peppermint lotion for my tired feet each night; snacks for the kids to...

    Theme Park Parking Fee Increase Tomorrow (update in first post)

    My husband and I were talking tonight about the costs associated with taking a trip to WDW (we just returned from a 11 night stay on Monday where we used the bus system as we had no vehicle and did not have to pay the parking fee). We looked up info on just their property taxes...
