    Kansas DVC-ers?

    Southwest at ICT is not a done deal yet, but we do have our fingers crossed.

    Worst Attractions or ideas ever...

    This. Closing the Catwalk Bar ranks right up there, too.

    Abandoned Attractions

    Catwalk Bar. I was allowed to go up there a couple of years ago to take a quick look, all the fixtures were still in place. We miss Horizons too - DD and I took one last ride right before it closed, and we got stuck for about 20 minutes. We didn't mind at all.

    Is there another cruise line just as good as Disney?

    Not true, I've always booked directly on their website. In fact, out of 6 cruises, only one was booked through a TA (Dreams Unlimited, our sponsor here). The others were all booked through the respective websites.

    Is there another cruise line just as good as Disney?

    DCL x3, RCCL x2, HAL x1. Those also happen to be our order of preference. Don't get me wrong, we enjoyed RCCL and HAL and would/will cruise with them again. DCL is, as stated, in a class by itself. Service - advantage DCL, with HAL a close runner-up. RCCL was good, too, but we just felt the...

    Question: beers in Germany at Epcot

    Bottled Spaten Optimator is 7.2% alcohol by volume (at least around these parts, YMMV). I have no reason to doubt the Optimator on tap at Germany is any less, especially after draining that big mug at Biergarten. :eek:

    BEER - In and Around resorts

    Slight correction, it's Spaten Optimator. You're right, it's pretty awesome. Sometimes they have it on tap in the courtyard, and I think it's usually available at Sommerfest.

    Vero to port?

    We've done it a few times. It's an easy drive up A1A, maybe an hour or so. Are you renting a car? We find it convenient to drop the car at the office near the port (we use Avis but there are others). The shuttles from the car rental office to the port can get crowded, and you may wait a while...

    Key West Sunsets

    We watched the sunset from Mallory Square, then walked over to El Meson de Pepe for mojitos, dinner, and more mojitos. THAT was a good day....

    Longest time you've been stuck on a ride?

    DD and I were stuck on Horizons for about 15 minutes. We didn't mind at all because we knew Horizons was scheduled to be torn down and it was, literally, the last time we would ever be on that ride.

    A Couple of Sci-Fi Questions...

    They play trailers from B-grade horror and SF movies, newsreels and cartoons. There are a couple of "go visit the snack bar" interstitials thrown in. All are period-correct. The loop is roughly 40 minutes long.

    Don't shoot the messanger...Tux Poll

    I have a Mickey-print cummerbund. It's black with a paisley design, with little Mickey heads scattered throughout. I'd look pretty silly if I wore it with regular clothes, so I wear a tux.

    Airtran changing schedules RIGHT NOW ..2ND TIME..CHECK YOUR FLIGHTS

    I received an email notification of a schedule change for our August flight to MCO. It was only a couple of minutes, so no problem. There was a "confirm" button on the email so I clicked it and it took me to my reservation on their web page, with an option to confirm the change, so I did. A...

    Which extinct WDW restaurant do you miss the most?

    The Catwalk Bar was our favorite watering hole in all of WDW. I was allowed to go up the stairs to see it a couple of years ago and everything was still in place, but that may have changed.
