    How do you choose a resort?

    I no longer have a choice. I have been to two moderates before and I loved them both, but once I went to Pop Century I knew I could never stay anyplace else. Something about that place grabbed in a way that renewed my spirit. I could easily afford to stay at any of the moderates, but even if...

    Anyone else prefer the moderate resorts over the deluxe?

    I actually prefer Pop Century over most Disney resorts. I stayed at several moderates and walked through many of the deluxe resorts and I feel like Pop Century has that special magic and feels more like one of the parks then the others. I keep going back to Pop and the more I go the more I love...

    Value Hotels

    I agree with this. Pop is a great resort for kids. I personally would not go with a 2.5 year old. My daughter's first trip was 5 and that was perfect. At 2.5 it would be too much work. It is a lot of money to spend and he would not remember it. I rather go on cheaper vacations until around...

    Art of Animation or Pop Century

    I have never stayed at the AOA but I love Pop and have been there 7 times. I can't put into words how I feel when i first walk into the lobby. I'm not sure if it's the fact that I love to walk down memory lane and look at all the shadow boxes which brings me back to my youth and those moments...

    When will POFQ update the pool ?

    POFQ was my first on-site experience, and although all Disney resorts are amazing, this one is my least favorite. I actually prefer Pop Century over the moderates because it feels more like Disney then the other moderates I have stayed. The over-sized Icons and the amazing lobby has the same...

    Disney Ride Ideas

    I think the fact that the spinning version tricks the brain probably makes it feel worse. I am sure many like this ride, but I hope Disney doesn't go overboard with thrill rides. So far the balance seems pretty good, but Disney is so much more than a place to go on rides.

    Disney Ride Ideas

    I'm not sure if this is the place to put this, but here goes. I know Disney Imagineering Technology Group is the best there is, but I often wonder what they were thinking on some of the real failures and I wonder why they can't incorporate some different technology that will make dark rides...

    Just at the Poly....

    I hope they notify people who plan to stay there. I never stayed at a deluxe but if I was going to go for the money the Poly has a special place in my heart and brings back such great memories. If I were to pay that kind of money and didn't know about this I would be pissed. I always go to...

    First and last Disney Resort

    First: POFQ Last: Pop Century Next: Pop Century (Again). After several on site vacations, I found my favorite Disney resort and lucky me it's a value.

    PO-Riverside or Pop Century, help me decide!

    Pop Century all the way! I love this place, it's like the magic never ends. When I first arrive and walk into that lobby, I feel like I'm in heaven. While I love everything Disney and all the resorts, the moderates I have stayed at were beautiful but did not have that special something that...

    Just stayed at CBR, booked next year for PORFQ will I be disappointed?

    I stayed at both resorts and it's really hard to compare the two because they are so different. I loved them both equally but I found CBR was too spread out. POFQ is a smaller compact resort with everything in close walking distance. However, I may not be the guy to give you advice because...

    Say Good Bye to Maelstrom....A 'Frozen' Ride is Definite

    I feel the same way. Disney is playing it safe and ensuring the younger generation will be fans for life, but it's also forgetting what EPCOT was meant to be. Put Pixar in the movie studios.

    Spinoff: Marriage, when do you know it is over?

    Sorry you are going throiugh this. I have a feeling you already know the answer. Unfortunately, there are no easy answers. If you want to save the marriage I would ask him to seek marriage counseling. If he refuses, then he made the choice for you. Good Luck. We only have one life to live...

    How many days do you usually stay?

    11 days seems to be the magical number for us. We did some shorter trips and it's just not enough time for us to enjoy the pools, the water parks, shopping, etc. Also, by the end of the trip we are ready to go home.

    Does anyone NOT have a smartphone???

    I am the same way. I'm 50 and my daughter is 20. The only reason I have a phone at all is to keep in touch with her and be available when she needs me. My wife does not own a cell phone at all. Everyone around us seemingly lost their mind when it comes to their smart phones. Even when we go...

    Disney Blues...

    Sorry I don't have any suggestions, but I am you in a male version and my wife is your husband. My wife wanted to expand our vacation horizons and so far, all she accomplished was me missing Disney even more. I only get one vacation a year and nothing brings me back to feeling young again like...
