    Park Entertainment Cuts Have Been Confirmed

    I am hoping its not cost cutting but re-purposing. Its very disappointing because the Muppets and teaching american history seemed to have a good feel and worked. That show was the first time our kids have ever asked about the muppets. Its a good brand but Disney seems determined to drive it...

    HEA Dessert Party (Plaza) or SW Dessert Pary

    I will say I think the Party where they walk you to the Tony's Plaza (fake grass area) was much better than the Terrace Party. We have done both and with the Garden you could see the projections much better. We had a what I thought was good seat at the Tomorrowland terrace right on the railing...

    Must buy items at the parks

    I would agree with the earlier posters. We have bough a bunch of toys both for boy (lightsabers and spinning r2d2, pirate gun) and girl (princess wand, shoes, dolls) and everything has held up over a number of years even when we wish they would be retired :). Gifts are pretty personal I...

    too many mnsshp scheduled in one week

    I get the irritation about not being able to do MK at night if its just wishes you want to see. Go over to Grand Floridian or Poly and hang out. They have great views and are beautiful hotels. First class drinks as well.

    What attraction was better/worse than you expected?

    Better I have 2: 1st the laugh factory... I thought it would be awful. Besides the no line and A/C (bonus!) we found it funny in a cheesy kind of way. Maybe we were just in the right mood for it but we have young kids who loved it and that makes the day better any how :). 2. Livin' with the...

    Disney Gift Card Deals

    I don't know if it has been mentioned on these blogs but there is an AMEX card that offers 6% off at grocery stores. We shop at a Kroger. Which also offers 4x fuel points at various points during the year. So we pay for the whole trip but for this example say you purchased 4k in gift cards at...

    How many days at Disney versus Universal

    thanks for all the helpful info. I guess I could have googled it but I didn't know US and MK were so far apart. I think I would send everyone to the parks early and do the check'in myself if we switched hotels. Then they get full park time and I get a few sanity minutes. :)... I thought I...

    HOA put lien on my house-Can this really be happening

    HOA's are a pain and in my case have held down the value of the home. People factor the HOA dues into their monthly budget and when you look at the cost of the monthly mortgage cost and the dues together it is a negative. Prices in my neighborhood have been flat for pretty much 5 years where...

    Random yet useful items to have for your trip.

    The portable battery pack for cell phone/ipad is a must these days. DW is on the MDE app all day long and now that you can add new fast passes from it you don't want to be without power.

    garden grill breakfast or lunch?

    We did breakfast there back in Nov... It was awesome we got to meet everyone multiple times and the food was great. Rolled our right into Sorin'.. I don't love Epcot right now for our kids but its worth part of a day just to to GG. Cinnamon Rolls are the best!!
