    Food & Wine Festival Home Made Ratings Cards

    That is also a great idea, but not for me, I'm afraid. After 40, my eyes are not what they used to be, and we need to use our reading glasses already on the index card size, so I can't imagine trying to read a business card! But for those of you with younger eyes, this may be a good way to...

    Food & Wine Festival Home Made Ratings Cards

    Hey all I just finished making my Food & Wine Festival ratings cards. I got the idea from someone else on the Boards last year - he was nice enough to send me what he'd done. But his printed out 6 to a page of paper, you had to manually cut them apart, and then no good way to reinforce them...

    BWV - Check in map?

    Does someone have a scanned copy of the map the give you when you check into Boardwalk Villas? I assume it has more detail than just the standard BWV map, which only shows the building outlines and where restaurants and things are. Thanks!

    BWV - what to request

    We have a 1 bedroom for a week at BWV for the Epcot Food & Wine Festival in October (it will also be my 45th birthday!). I would like to request a room at BWV that is in the pink BWV (not BWI) building on this map. This building has rooms 1023-1048, 2029-2066, 3029-3066, 4029-4066...

    Segway: Epcot or Wilderness

    My DH and I have done both. If you've not ridden a Segway before, I STRONGLY suggest you do the Epcot tour instead of the Fort Wilderness one. The Epcot one is where you LEARN to ride the Segway, then go out and about. The Wilderness Lodge tour assumes you've already done the Epcot tour...

    DVC resort laundry room??'s

    Actually, if you are in a 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom or Grand Villa, you will have a washer and dryer as part of your room/suite. If you are in a Studio, you will NOT have a washer or dryer, but there are free laundry facilities at each of the pools at whatever resort you are at. At least, I'm 95%...

    Segway tours - anyone done them??

    My DH and I did BOTH of the Segway tours last October. We really enjoyed both of them! However, be aware that the Wilderness Lodge one does far less training, they sort of assume you've already taken the Epcot tour, and so, already know a bit about how to operate the Segway. So my...

    BoardWalk Villas

    We have a (not standard view, not boardwalk view, inbetween) 1 bedroom villa booked for the Food & Wine Festival this year. We've not stayed here before, so I"m looking for some suggestions on which sections to request. We can at least ask politely if we can be in certain sections, but I"m...

    Food and Wine Festival

    Here are some photos of last year's food. Of course, there's nothing in the pictures to give you any scale or perpective! I'd guess that the standard plate was 6" in diameter - all these pictures the food is on a standard plate: Food & Wine 1 F&W2 F&W3 - cup is maybe 3" in diameter...

    What do you wear on your head??

    I hope you meant you spray on sunscreen, not hairspray, to protect your scalp. I don't use hairspray, but I don't imagine they do anything to protect you from the sun?

    Best sandal with support??

    Another option is to put arch support into your existing sandles - I have to do this even with my Keens, as they don't provide as much support as I seem to need. Here's a couple of options: Insertable Arch Supports Another Option Another And finally, this is the one that I use...

    Blown Glass EEYORE pierced earings--where to find?

    You can also try Arribas Brothers shop in Downtown Disney - they have a glass worker there as well. And the Glass worker IS in MExico - on the left of the pavillion (inside of course) as you face the back of the pyramid. There is also a small glass booth just outside of Pirates of the...

    Shoes for flat feet??

    I have VERY Flat feet, and always wear orthotics (over the counter, not custom). I love my Keen sandles, but I do put in orthotics. But check them out - they are not pretty, but really comfy and very practical! Also somewhat expensive, but I don't mind paying for quality. Keen...

    Parking at Beach Club/Yacht Club

    Each resort does have it's own parking lot - you just follow the signs to the resort, and the guard at the shack can direct you to parking. However, the resort parking is ONLY for resort guests, so if you're not staying at BC or YC, you may not be able to park. You can get in to park if you...
