We will be staying at the Grand Californian in a one bedroom villa with five adults. Is the extra single pull out bed in the room actually large enough and comfortable enough for an adult man? (average size). Or would it be better to bring an air mattress with us?

We will be visiting Disneyland in August and we want to spend one morning at the beach. We love to just walk the beach front at the waters edge. Would Huntington Beach provide enough beach front for a long walk up and back?

Fulton's "USED" to be one of my favorites at WDW. But our last visit in April 2012 was very disappointing. Previous to that our visit in March of 2011 was somewhat disappointing. The quality of the food had just gone down hill. I can no longer justify the price vs the quality. In my...

If we are staying at SSR which puts us within walking distance, we will try to get to DTD. Otherwise, it is no big deal if we miss it. Now back in the day of Adventurers Club and Comedy Club....it was a different story.

DH and I visited Portabellos in October 2010. It is our goal to try all restaurants at the world and this past trip Portabellos made it to the top of the list. We enjoyed it very much and wished we had tried it sooner. DH loves Italian food and he was not disappointed. We did lunch. My...

DH and I used a $25 Restaurant.com certificate at Garden Grove when we visited the World in October. It was for dinner on a Monday night when they have their sea food buffet which includes crab legs. The food was very good and the buffet was kept very neat and clean. And yes were were...

We will be visiting the world 3-3-11 to 3-10-11

On our trip just last month in October a woman was in bag check at MK. The security guard removed a knife from her bag. The knife had about a four inch blade. The security guard called over two official looking police men to question the woman. They offered to hold the knife for her to...

Wednesday 10-20-10 Departure Day Our original schedule showed us having breakfast at Crystal Palace in the MK at 8:00am. Since our flight was not leaving until this afternoon we thought it would be nice to enjoy the MK before opening and catching a few last rides. Well the reality turned...

Tuesday 10-19-10 continued We last left you as we were completing our late afternoon and early evening in the MK. Our next stop after Winnie the Pooh was Laugh Floor Comedy. DH and I enjoy this show. I did text in a joke….but it did not get used this time. (although a few years ago, I...

Tuesday 10-19-10 Our Last Full Day Up at 6:45am and had breakfast in the room. We wanted to be first at a gate at DHS this morning. We only waited about 10 minutes for our bus and arrived at DHS at 8:00 for the 9:00 entry. They let us into the park at exactly 9:00 and we headed right...

Monday 10-18-10 Only 2 ½ days left of vacation. It’s time to get serious. No more of that lazy laying around stuff….. Since we did not get to AK for early entry yesterday…we decided that’s what we would do today. Up at 7:00am had breakfast in the room and made it to AK by 8:30. In...

Sunday 10-17-10 Whenever we visit WDW during football season, Sunday is our “No Park” day, our “Rest & Relax” day, our “Just Watch Football All Day” day. Usually it also means we have to make a trip to the ESPN club at the Boardwalk if we want to see the Packer game. But we lucked out this...

The sea scallop in New Zealand

Saturday 10-15-10 concluded When I last left you we were fighting our way out of Epcot to get to Fort Wilderness. We left the American Adventure Theatre along with many others, so the crowd was very thick. On our way out, we actually ran into the mom and daughter we had originally met in...

Saturday 10-16-10 continued When I last left you we were on our way to lunch at the Brown Derby. This is our first time trying this restaurant. It is our goal to try them all…and our list does keep getting shorter with each trip. So it was finally time to cross Brown Derby off the list...

Saturday 10-16-10 Up at 6:00 am Now isn’t that ridiculous time to be getting out of bed while on vacation!! But it is early entry at the Studios and we wanted to be the first at one of the gates. We have a strategy for getting the TSM fast pass then joining the standby line...

Friday 10-15-10 concluded After leaving Saana we found our way to the Kidani bus stop to wait for a MK bus. We needed to complete our MK day (now night). The bus stop was very crowded. This was only the second time we had any kind of wait for a bus and then it was only 20 minutes (not...

Friday 10-15-10 continued It was time for our 2:00 ADR at the Plaza Restaurant in MK. The main reason for stopping here was to get the Butter Pecan Milk Shake (it’s no sugar added which is a bonus). I love that flavor of milk shake and I don’t know any where else on property you can get it...
