We were at AK in the afternoon when a thunderstorm came through. We had stacked out a spot by Pizzafari to watch the parade when the winds started to pick up there was talk the parade was going to be cancelled. As it began to sprinkle we headed over to FoLK. The CM at the exit allowed us to come...

We used SWV thinking a travel agent would be more beneficial as it was our first trip to WDW. Quite honestly, they weren't. They were quick to respond with quotes, but I pretty much knew what codes & packages were out there beforehand so I was specific in my request. They were able to find us a...

We stayed at POR and visited POFQ. My 2 DS's (9&11) liked the slide at POR lots more. They always enjoyed the quiet pools. I think they were just happy to be swimming! I found the FoodCourt at POR to have more favorable choices over POFQ's. The only thing they ate all of was the biegnets, the...

Brian, I couldn't agree with you more. While Mom & I sympathized with the wheelchair users, I was able to identify too with the stroller users.... well most of them. There were the exceptions like the woman that insisted on standing in front of us with a stroller and child that refused to sit in...

Forgot to add.... when my parents were in those types of situations, to get the pressure off my mom who might have accidently hit someone with the wheelchair after they crossed into their path.. my dad would stick his foot out and kick em! ;)

My mom, being in her 70's, felt this was her last chance to see the World, but refused my offers of a wheelchair. In fact, she got along better than I most days :) We empathized with those in wheelchairs at WDW. My father spent many years in a wheelchair and they traveled frequently. Mom knew...

We bought 4 childs meal deals at Flame Tree BBQ in the morning for 2 adults and 2 children. The cashier said it was no problem to adults to use childs deals. Plus, we didn't have to use them right then so we used the drink vouchers at a kiosk where they let us get Powerades instead of soda...

We, too, were able to catch ELP at MK after Wishes. When everyone was rushing to the bus stops, I noticed the barges so we stopped and watched. I wasn't planning on seeing it at all.. it was perfect timing on our part and added to the magic. we were able to avoid the crunch at the bus stop too...

I too have severe ear pains when flying. Nothing has ever worked. Valsalva.... felt like my eardrum exploded & I ended up in worse pain. When I heard about EarPlanes (thanks DISers!!) I ran right out and got some. I still had a slight discomfort in my right ear but nothing I couldn't ignore...

My 2 sons had loads of fun feeding the chipmunks at POR everyday! Watching chipmunks eat a fry is too cute. :D We have animals around home too, and they've been to many a zoo, but this is all part of the magic!

Another vote for Pizzafari here. The Childs Meal Deal is a fantasic deal. For $5.99 there's 3 vouchers -- childs meal w/drink; soda/water in bottle; and ice cream or popcorn. The childs pizzas are 7" -- think Pizza Hut personal pan size -- and delish! We noticed at Flame Tree BBQ where we bought...

Having just been there for the first time and only for 4 full days to see everything, I can understand your predicament. Epcot took more time than I anticipated so I would plan a full day there. With only 3 days, I would suggest: Day 1 - Epcot (EMH day is best) followed by an E-night at MK...

I think OP is referring to the Odyssey Center (not a restaurant) and the bridge leading away from it toward the lagoon.

My mother and I ordered from the Childs menu quite a few times without any problems. Just be sure to specify cause I forgot once when ordering DS breakfast at counter-service and recieved an adults meal. Of course you can't pay Childs meal prices at buffet meals but you can eat from the child...

We did the dinner package June 3. H&V was delish! There was alot of good choices for adults & children. The waitress was really nice and explained the dinner package completely including directions to Oscars... which we didn't need but it was still nice that she took the time. Although it was...

My sons thoroughly enjoyed the backlot tour, plus it was a well-timed break from the rain. It did seem a little short and lacking and didn't compare to Universal CA backlot tour. I was disappointed but it was fun nonetheless.

On 06/04 CB at Chef Mickeys, Donald & Goofy were in the lobby while Mickey, Minne, Chip & Dale went around to all the tables. we were there at 11am, Pluto came out of the kitchen for the last napkin dance.

I can understand your panic. We have 2 cats and a dog... and no relatives near us anymore. We've always found a neighbor to pet-sit for us or traded pet-sitting services with friends (which didn't go that well the last time. We came home to some seriously upset cats because the access to their...

I have fond memories of DL as a kid staying in the park late. My uncle took us to watch the nighttime parade and then did a few rides till Dad spoiled the fun with "it's way past their bedtime." We just visited WDW for the first time and I found this most frustrating. It wasn't just the parks...

We bought the $2.50 bottles the first day...one for each of us. Instead of throwing out the empty bottles, we refilled at lunch & dinner. Each night I'd wash them out thoroughly in the hotel, in the morning fill em all up with iced-cold water at the food court beverage dispensers. To help...
