Thanks for all the heads up's! I think my kids (even though they are only 6&9) get a kick out of getting into things that are past their prime and hard to dig up stuff on. They will be so excited to find Pocahontas and especially Meko.

My son's name is Elias...named after Walt, it was his middle name and also his grandfather's name. Elias' middle name is James, after Jim Henson. I wanted to name my first son Mickey, but my wife wouldn't go for that. We're expecting a girl next year and I'm rooting for Ariel, but the Mrs...

We're heading down in a few weeks. We haven't been since 2009, and I've fallen way behind of keeping up with every little detail of the park as I once have. Right now my kids are obsessed with Stitch & Pocahontas (especially her raccoon friend Meko) I know we'll be seeing Lilo & Stitch at...

I saw in a recent AAA brochure that they have an exclusive storytime with a Disney character at the Expo Hall on Main Street USA. The brochure kind of elludes that the event is held in the theatre at the back of the Expo Hall. I was wondering if anyone knew, is this event held in the same...

Getting ready to do the drive down 95 myself this Friday! Keep an eye out for plenty of Billboards that indicate fast food restaurants that have playgrounds and playlands. Of course there are plenty of McDonald's but there's actually alot of other chains that provide play areas as well...

Ok...for all you seasoned travelers or Floridians.... I've only been to WDW in the summer months when the Sun has landed in the parking lot for the day. What kind of weather should we expect 3/10 - 3/18 and what's the prediction for the crowds that week/time of the year??? Thanks!

My DS3 is all about Robin Hood right now. I just wanted to check if they were still pretty common characters to encounter before I build it up too much for my son. I know they were usually hanging out on Main Street the last couple of times I've been! While on the subject of...

I just attempted to book a trip for a week and the guy at Disney told me that the entire resort is booked between Dec. 2 - 9. We're thinking about waiting a few more weeks and doing in January. How's your experience with the crowds in January!?

I just booked a flight to Tampa in May for my wife's friends wedding. This will be my first time EVER (in 20 some trips) to Florida without necessarily going to Disney. We only going to be there Sat & Sun, the wedding is Sat. night, we haven't ruled out driving to Orlando Sunday but I was...

Of course every kid is different, but from what you said... At the Magic Kingdom: Pirates has a little darkness in the begining, but after that it's all good. Haunted Mansion & Snow White have momnets of darkness and creepiness. Space Mt. is dark and a roller coaster!! So you might want to...

Well, the baby is here. He was born 12/12/05 at 7:34pm 7lbs 6oz, 19.5" Sadly, we could not agree on a Disney name for Child #2. I don't know If I mentioned but our first son is named Elias James, after my two idols...Walter Elias Disney and Jim Henson. Our new son is Tanner Charles. Our...

I don't remember there being a menu at O'Hana...but there very well could be!? We all just had the endless skillet for b'fast which included eggs, potatos, bacon, sausage, and Mickey waffles! Good eats! and all you can eat!

Usually we do Spalsh MT. first, to avoid the long lines later in the day. Last time we went we did Dumbo first since I now have a son!

I'm sure something like this has been posted 100 times before, but we need help with a name for our son, arriving in just two months. We really want another Disney name, but we need something a little outside the Disney Box! My first son's name is Elias....that was a stroke of genius! (For...

Just a note for anyone using these videos to get their kids (or themselves) pumped up for a trip....although the videos are great, and do capture the spirit of the parks...the new DVD's are actually 10 year old shows produced for video. So alot of what you see, isn't there anymore. My son was...

At the begining of our trip, I was trying to statigically use the snack credits for more expensive itmes and not waste them on bottles of soda. Then, half way though the trip we realized that we still had a ton of snack credits...so then we spent one day in MK eating like pigs! My 13 year old...

Not only did I dress my DS2 in Disney EVERY day and night we are in WDW, I dress him in nothing but Disney the other 51 weeks of the year!

Ok......so where were we........ Day 5, Saturday 7/30 After a quick breakfast of Princess Pop Tarts in our room, we made it over to the Magic Kingdom at park opening. The previous night had been evening EMH, and the park was empty for most of the morning! We walked right onto Splash Mt. and...

If you're really looking for the party atmosphere, you might want to consider Mickey's Backyard BBQ...a little more expensive than the other character meals, it's like a concert, a party, and a cookout all rolled into one! We had a blast at it! Good eats! All you can drink beer & wine is...
