    Skyliner resort QS recommendations

    Just got back from a stay at Aruba in CBR so we were closer to Riviera and agree that Primo Piatto was excellent. Also, the fish tacos at CBR were great. Try the kids meal because it is a great value and more than enough for an adult. I also loved the menu at Banana Cabana by the CBR pool - not...

    Uber/Lyft pickup for Treehouse Villa?

    Hope this helps. We just got back tonight from the Treehouse 7052 which is very close to/only steps away from the main entrance off Disney Vacation Club Way. The Ubers and Lyfts picked us up there. We took quite a few and never had a problem.

    Another Newbie with Questions :)

    Very spur of the moment, I booked a trip for my teenage kids (ds 17, Dr 16) & me to London & Paris this summer. It's our first time overseas & we are so excited! I'm in the midst of manic planning. Because we are Disney lovers, we knew we had to add DLP at least for a day to our trip. We fly...

    Hotel in paris after DLP

    I just booked Hotel Le Senat for 3 nights in late May in a Superior Triple Room with a balcony with city view for me (Mom) and my 2 teens. It looks lovely, gets great reviews, was reasonable and is in one of the two areas I was recommended by many. It's in the Left Bank 6th Arrondissement. I was...

    IF YOU HAVE A 2016 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER....

    I have a 2015 XLE AWD. Mine's a lease but sticker was just under $39K. I love it. It is my 3rd Highlander. I had a 2006 that I bought new and then traded in and leased a 2012 and now the 2015. We have had the captain seats in the second row on the last two. Wouldn't want a bench, I don't think...

    If it's real HOT outside how COOL do you keep your house with AC of course?

    We live in Memphis, TN. The high is 98-100 this week with heat indexes over 110. Regardless, we have 2 central a/c units - 1 for each floor. We are hot if it's over 74 in the day. 72, maybe 73 is our daytime temp. We sleep between 66 and 68. The windows are usually covered in condensation in the...

    Possible celebrity/VIP sighting on 6/29 on ToT - but who was it?

    I wish I had taken a picture, but of course, I didn't. On Wednesday the 29th in the late morning/lunch timeframe, we were in the boiler room of ToT about to be directed to our elevator. The elevator in front of us was loaded and was completely filled by Disney security team members (blue short...

    Kombucha tea at Disney?

    GT's Kombucha is my latest obsession and I love it. I have cut out diet soda as a result! Can you find it at Disney? Or is there a place I can order from who will deliver? I know that it is sold at most Whole Foods, Publix and Kroger. It's at our Targets too.

    Bath time advise - DS & DD, when to separate their bath?

    So many people overreacting here. Do what's right for your family. You'll know it's time when its time. Don't let others dictate that for you. My son is 12 months and 18 days older than my daughter...I remember having the same worries based on others' reactions. But, I also remember a lot of...

    Does Airfare to Miami/Ft.L ever go down??

    We had the same issue with our 12/27 cruise. For us, FLL was a lot cheaper. In the end though, we are flying into PBI (75ish miles) because the price difference and times were dramatically better. I rented a car for less than $70 and there's a return location right by the port. We fly out of FLL...

    New Alcohol Policy - How is it playing out at Embarkation?

    We sail out of Miami on the Magic on 12/27 so I'm interested to see experiences from there. For what it's worth, I've sailed out of the Miami terminal on girls' trip party cruises on another line 3 times. Their rule is 1 bottle of wine per person carried on. We've always been successful...

    Disney Magic: Dec 27, 2015

    We are booked on this too. Right now, the airfare is crazy so I'm hoping a miracle happens there! ;) It will be me (Lesley 40) and my son (Wyatt 16) and daughter (Anna 15). It'll be our 5th Disney Cruise. We've sailed twice on the Wonder (3 day in 2009 and 4 day in 2010), once on the Dream (4...

    HELP-WDW pro to DL in 2 weeks...1ST TIME EVER!

    I agree with the others. Get a two day pass. Better yet, a 2 day park hopper. If you only have WDW for reference, it's hard to understand, but it's all so close together, you can hop around all day. It's so easy. And, there's so many cool things at DCA. DTD is small and doesn't have anything...

    First time stay at the Candy Cane Inn...

    We just came home last week from a 4 night stay in a premium room. It was our second stay there - our previous was in a standard room in 2013. It was a wonderful stay so we booked a standard again for this most recent trip. We spent 2 nights in San Diego before heading up to Anaheim and on a...
