    Tokyo Disney Sea Merchandise

    I am a military spouse living in Japan. We've been here less than 6 months and haven't personally made it to Tokyo yet. I have heard though, that the merchandise in the Japan parks is much, much different than you would find in the U.S. There are not lots of shirts, sweatshirts and ballcaps...

    Anyone visit EVERY Disney Park?

    This was not a goal for me until recently. My husband is in the Navy, and we transferred to a base in Japan a couple of months ago. I am certain that we will hit Tokyo Disney and Disney Sea while we are here. I've also found that it is cheap to add a layover in Los Angeles when we travel home...

    Crystal Palace or Liberty Tree Tavern?

    I completely agree with mrzrich. I felt the food at LTT was very much like what would come out of a TV dinner. I much prefer the food and characters at the Crystal Palace.

    Got some questions about Comfort Suite Maingate East.

    I'm really not sure if they will charge beyond the $77 for 5 adults. You can always give it a shot and if it doesn't fly, then cancel it.

    Got some questions about Comfort Suite Maingate East.

    The curiosity got the best of me so I went and checked on rates - for a 3 day period starting June 16th (random date) hotelmart had a $77 rate, where the choice site was advertising $89.99 as their standard rate. You would end up taking 10% off the $77 Definitely worth a shot.

    Got some questions about Comfort Suite Maingate East.

    One more thing - I'm not sure if you have booked your room yet, but Choice Hotels has a lowest internet rate guarantee. That means if you find a lower rate anywhere else on the internet than what they advertise on their site, then they will honor that rate minus an additional 10%. You first...

    Got some questions about Comfort Suite Maingate East.

    I'll try and answer some of your questions... I believe that the bedroom suite and studio suite are the same thing. We have stayed there multiple times and always had the same room layout - 2 dbl/queen (not sure which) and a sleeper sofa. There is also a small table to eat at and a very...

    Dressing or Stuffing

    Stuffing is what you eat with turkey. Dressing is what you do when you put your clothes on. :)

    Volunteerism doesn't seem to be important anymore

    I'm sorry to hear that the parents in your community did not step up. What I've noticed in my own community is that a small portion of the parents do a large portion of the volunteering, leaving a bunch of parents that do nothing. Between my DH and myself we are involved in Cub Scouts (Den...

    hotelmart USA~ever use?

    MaggieW - I have stayed at both the Comfort Suites and Cypress Pointe. They are really very different. Comfort Suites offers large rooms - like a studio. They have 2 doubles and a pull out sofa, table, mini kitchen area with small frig and microwave, and a bathroom. A decent breakfast is...

    Vacation Village at Parkway

    We stayed there in August. We had both the A & B sides of the unit. We had a great time and would not hesitate to stay there again. There is a good Publix grocery store and many restaurants close by as well.

    Tevas: Yay or nay?

    I bought a pair for our August trip and they were very comfy. I also suggest that you go try them on.

    Hopping from MK to Epcot JUST for dinner?

    It shouldn't be too tough. Just hop the monorail from the MK to TTC, then monorail from TTC to Epcot. It will take a little time getting back and forth however.... If you don't mind the traveling time, I'd say go for it.

    A Silhouette Artist/Cutter at WDW?

    I had both of my kids done together (side by side sort of) at Downtown Disney near the Christmas shop. I think I got 2 of them with decent frames for less than $20.

    How do you deal with temper tantrums on vacation?

    I'm sure that they will do just fine in WDW. One piece of advice that I would give it to stay out of the shops. If you want to shop, then let DH do something with the kids while you take a peak. If they don't see it, they won't say they want it. Then, near the end of your vacation you...
