    Pros & Cons of GC vs DLH vs PP ?????

    We have stayed at all 3 hotels and had the concierge level, for younger children I would agree that the DLH is probably the best. It's the closest to the monorail and has the best themed pool for children. We just got back from DLH and a concierge stay. The priority check-in was a breeze...

    Will DL disappoint after WDW???

    I also prefer DL, WDW is so large and spread out that you always feel rushed to get everything done or that you will miss something. I love the intimate touches of DL, it's nice to sit on the front porch on Main Street and watch the reactions of people heading into the park. New Orleans Square...

    DL Birthday stuff for "Old" people?

    A couple of years ago we took my father to Blue Bayou for his 60th birthday. The cast members were great, we were seated near the water, they brought "Gpa Jim" a birthday dessert, sang happy birthday to him and then our server took him to another room. He came out several minutes later with a...

    Need Help finding a Hotel

    I highly recommend the Candy Cane. Walk is close & on same side of street (Harbor) as the parks. There is only on street crossing that is never as busy as Harbor. Our rooms have always been clean, staff have always be friendly and courteous. If you want to save your feet...the shuttles are...

    My first trip to Disneyland

    Candy Cane, if we aren't staying at a Disney hotel, we stay at the Candy Cane. We have always had clean rooms and the staff are great. They usually offer AAA rates on their own website.

    Best book to buy?

    Birnbaum's is nice if you are going with several people, especially kids. Give each person a different colored highlighter & have them mark the things that they most want to do. After everyone has marked the book, plan to hit the rides, restaurants, shops, etc that have the most marks first.

    Ticket questions....FOTL, FL Resident?

    Just got back and the price for Universal Express Plus has gone up. It was $38.?? (not an even amount), they also sold out of them quite quickly each day at both parks. It was my understanding that it only allowed them to go on those rides once and the staff were marking their passes...

    Loew's members - what kind of fruit and how much water??

    We just got back from RPR & got fruit & water for only one of our rooms and only after we called them, even though they confirmed the request by phone when I called before leaving for Orlando & then re-confirmed at check-in. Didn't get the fruit or water until late afternoon the night before we...

    Parking at Hotel

    A friend came to visit me at RPR, she was told that if she bought a drink or meal or something from giftshop that they would validate her parking. It worked, we bought some drinks at Orchid Court Lounge & she was able to park for free....considering what guests pay to stay I would think self...

    FITS ticket FYI

    Just got back from WDW, we had no trouble using the FITS voucher to get tickets, just showed our ID. There was no problem using the breakfast vouchers @ Boma and they even included the 4 pots of pressed coffee we ended up drinking. But on Day 3, disaster struck; Ignoring the great advice...

    T-Mobile Cell Coverage Okay at WDW?

    We just got back from 8 days @ WDW & 3 days at Universal. We used our T-Mobile cell phones. Occasionally my Nokia phone would loose the signal, so I just shut it off, waited a minute & turned it back on, it then would come back with the full signal.
