    Thanksgiving Week

    I went last year at Thanksgiving. It was crowded, but don't remember it being that bad! We did get to the MK first thing in the am...then when it got too crowded, we left. I forgot what park we opted to go to. You can always try it or opt to go to another park that day. Have fun!

    Driving to Epcot/ parking

    Have an extra day after our cruise. We were thinking of going to MK, but now we might go to Epcot. We'll decide that day. Where do you park to go to Epcot? I know with MK, you have to go to ttc, then take the monorail there. Wondering about Epcot though. Thanks

    Ron Jon's Resort Before Cruise--Question

    You can check out their website at www.ronjonresort.com I called and they ran about 125.00 per night. Personally, I can't see paying that much if you're not there that long. We have a late flight coming in and will leave early the next morning for the cruise. It is a nice place though. Not...

    Driving to MK

    Well, that makes me feel better. Doesn't sound so scary. So we park at the TTC. (they'll be signs directing me there?) then take the monorail to Epcot, then another one to the MK? When we stayed on site, we just took the bus directly to MK. So it easier then. But if you say it's easy, I'm...

    Driving to MK

    Just read a thread about driving and a bit of a pain to the MK. We just went to WDW, but stayed on site and got around using their transportation. We're taking a cruise and have an extra day and thought we'd spend it at MK using our rental car. Driving around looked so difficult to me...

    Carnival Cruises' vs Disney Cruises' Need help deciding

    I think it's a matter of taste. I've always cruised with Carnival and we just did Disney. Now, this was my kids first cruise, so THEY can't compare. They are 13 and 15. They love cruising, but thought the teen club was ok. They did spend lots of time there each night. But what I've seen and...

    Grocery stop or not?

    Boy, I'd think about changing my ressies. It's a lot of money that you can save! Depends on what's more important to you. We did the grocery stop with Fl. Tours.(they were great by the way!) We ate breakfast in our rooms, packed lunches and brought drinks. Did counter service for dinners. But...

    Empty mini-bar at the Dolphin?

    We went recently. We stopped and got groceries and a cooler. It broke so we emptied everything out of our bar fridge and put our stuff in it. When we checked out, we just put all their stuff back in. We were never charged.

    Dolphin / Swan teacher discounts?

    I recently went and just had the teacher that I work under write a letter for me on our school's letter head. No problem!

    Swan and Dolphin questions.

    The first night I slept on a Heavenly bed at the Dolphin, I didn't wake up once during the night! I LOVE those beds!! I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again!

    Which restuarant should we miss?

    Well, the first night that it's your turn will be the only show. Not just the first night on the ship. Maybe I just misunderstood. I would NOT miss Palo's!!! That was the best food I've ever had!! Our waiter was wonderful. We told him to just bring us what he thought was best with the...

    Disney Wonder for Adults

    I guess I'm the odd person here with my opinion. We've always done Carnival. We cruised last month on Disney with our kids, ages 13 and 15. The kids enjoyed the cruise cuz they had the teen club. But my husband and I wouldn't do a Disney cruise again. We thought the shows were much better on...

    Should I upgrade DCL stateroom or WDW resort room?

    Seems like you're getting lots of advice on this one. There is not a right or wrong answer. We wanted a balcony for sure!! I didn't book it that way though. Then I decided to wait before we boarded. They had rooms available, and we paid to upgrade. It was 1/2 the cost this way. But you're also...

    Can we we happy without a verandah?

    We've cruised with and without the verandah. I've decided after our last cruise a few weeks back that we'll never cruise again without a verandah. When we checked in at port, we upgraded and loved it!! We had cruised before with the verandah and figured this past cruise we just went for 4 days...

    atlantis resort in paradise island

    There is NO shortage of taxis' waiting for you. They will ask if you want a taxi. Then they gather up about 10 or so and take you to a waiting taxi. Have them take you to Comfort Suites if you have a room booked there or straight to ATlantis. I made the mistake of just letting them take me to...
