    Came home sick after 3/31 cruise?

    I was not on the DCL during the time you mentioned, but in Cancun. I did get sick a day after we returned home. I figured it was a case of "montezuma's revenge", bur then my daughter got sick four days later. Now I thing it was a virus - maybe something I picked up on the plane and then...

    Anyone Park there car at JFK - longterm parking?

    Have also used Avistar at JFK. Very convenient and you can reserve a place ahead of time so no chance that the lot is full when you get there. Reserve early if you are traveling during a peak vacation period. You can do all this on their website.

    What is a good Non-Character restaraunt for kids?

    I have to say Sci Fi Drive In. It was the quietest restaurant and my kids loved watching the old movies. They also loved sitting in the cars!

    Small World vacations question

    Laura was our TA and used her to book a Disney cruise 2 years ago and our recent trip in April. Very informative and very helpful. We made several changes to our trip and she was very patient. She watched for any discounts and made our town car arrangements. I preferred to book our own ADR's...

    late riser in Disney

    I am an early riser but the rest of the family is not. What we did this time was plan alternate days at the parks and at the pool and it worked out great for us. On park days we arrived around 11 am and stayed all day. On pool days we went to the pool also around 11 and relaxed all day by the...

    Anything fast & semi healthy in the Studios?

    We ate at the Backlot and I had the grilled veggie sandwich. It was quite good!

    Just got back from Disney on DDP!

    We are just back also and feel the DP was well worth it. Even with some credits left over, I feel we definitely saved money using the DP!

    Soarin' Line Cutter's

    I don't want to start anything, but just want to add my 2 cents. I have to say I saw more rude behavior this trip (last week) than at any other time we have been to WDW. I know I am not perfect, but it was quite noticeable.

    Our "Magical Moment" in Epcot!

    Our stay was last week and boy was it crowded! We were at Epcot on 4/11 and when we got to Soarin' there was a 2 hour wait and no more fastpasses available for the remainder of the day! As we walked around the Land pavillion a gentleman came up to us and asked if we had done Soarin' yet. He...

    Better than Crocs!

    Before we left, I saw many posts about Crocs and kept wondering what was so special about them. They are not even nice looking. (No flames please!) I even considered buying them because I hate when my feet hurt, until someone recommended the New Balance slip on sneakers. 12 hours in the...

    Problems with Table of 8 and ADR's During Recent Stay

    We were at WDW from 4/7-4/15 and stayed at the BC. I made ADR's for every night of our stay. For 3 of the nights we met my DS and her family for dinner so we were a total of 8. What a nightmare, even with ADR's! Mon. 4/10 - Wolfgang Puck- Had an ADR for 7pm. Arrived by 6:50 and were told...

    Just back: Opinions of DP

    MissMagnolia: I have not heard of it. There is a Character Breakfast Buffet at the Cape MAy Cafe which counts as a TS meal, but I did not see what you are referring to. Maybe someone else can help. Sorry.

    Just back: Opinions of DP

    I believe the BC Marketplace is a new edition to the DP. We bought snacks there on the plan, but did not use it for CS although I believe you can now. Yes you can buy milk, juice, coffee, etc at the Marketplace on the DP. The confusion at Hurricane Hanna's was that french fries are not...

    Just back from BC 4/7-4/15

    Our room was located on the 4th floor - Room 4705. It was a bit of a walk from the elevators. We had a view of the pool, even though we booked standard view, not sure if this would be considered an upgrade. The balcony was very small - a walkout - no chairs - just room for one or two people...

    Just back: Opinions of DP

    Just back from 4/7-4/15 stay at BC on DP. Some thoughts: For us, (family of 4) it was well worth it. It paid for dinner and was like getting lunch and snacks for free. Yes, it is a lot of food, but we decided we would only eat what we could or wanted. We had snack credits and a few CS...

    Just back from BC 4/7-4/15

    Just a few thoughts from our recent stay at BC for the first time. The BC is beautiful! Stormalong Bay was wonderful and I have to say DD's 10 and 7 seemed to have the most fun there! They did check cards everyday and issue wristbands. They were very strict about this. No problem getting...

    Non Disney Cruise Lines

    Thanks everyone for your input! Will check out cruise critic. I agree with what everyone says about DCL, but but we would have to sail during peak holiday times because I am a teacher and the cost of DCL for Spring Break next year is just out of the question. We are considering RCCL's...
