I was going to mention the launch today but Coleland beat me to it. Awesome as Coleland said, but nothing in comparison to the Shuttle. Depending on which orbit the shuttle is going to the shuttle can be seen from up to 500 miles away (night launch). The best launches are polar orbits as they...

Hmmm.. You did say family meal. I'm going to make a suggestion that oddly I did not try but in hindsight wish I had. This tip might most apply to seven day cruises where you have the chance to hit Palos, and the three main restaurants at least once. Hopefully someone will correct me if...

Actually we have only been here a year so the shine has not worn off yet. But the first day back DS (7) was moping around "I'm bored. there is nothing to do." The wife has often mused about adopting. Send us an application.

Thanks everyone for the positive response to my post.. Might even try a Wierd, Wacky and Good to Know Part II.... I'll skip any more silly bread tricks.

More likely that they have no access during work.

Yup, we saw you coming and hid our tags. Wink Wink. Not sure why we didn't think to exchange room numbers. Sorry too that we missed several of you. If you know where Scoops the Ice Cream counter was, we were in the lounges closest to there. The meeting only lasted about 20 minutes and it was...

Sorry I was too busy grumbling about missing by one number.... Dang nab Rasa Fras gull dern dog gone it....

On our cruise just ended there was a stroller and a folded wheelchair in the hall for the whole trip. Neither was in the way. The halls were wide enough that even carrying a room service tray past then was not a problem. Maybe it would bother some people but I can't see why.

Our sons must be twins separated at birth.

Long story... My mother mentioned that a five year old was handcuffed and I said " you saw that here on the boat ?" and she said "yes". I interpreted what she said to mean Disney had handcuffed a five year old on the boat for throwing and breaking things. I found out latter she meant she saw a...

Well now you've gone and done it... Tweaked the scientist in me... A rough calculation comes up with Castaway Cay Bay containing in excess of 78,000,000 gallons or 651,000,000 pounds of water and it is flushed at least partially twice a day by the tides. The nitrate concentration in sea...

All of the menus are limited and made in quantity so it is usually only a minute or three for your server to show up with another selection. A better trick is, if you are at all uncertain you'll like something ask if it would be ok to choose two items. They will of course say yes but it is still...

Thank God CTFamilyCruisers were on the opposite dinner rotation. They were spared my on stage dance with Mrs. Bumblesquat. As for the show? Anyone that has seen La Nuba, the Disney World Cirque d' Solei show would immediately note the resemblance. From the bald Mr. BumbleSquat to the...

We were on the starboard aft side of the Mickey pool on the steps that lead to deck 10 just in front of Scoops. Sorry some were missed. Our 9 year old DD met a DS at the gathering and ... well ...um ... she was kind of smitten ... In her words.... "I think I have a bit of a crush on him and...

Two points. There were many posts about taking coolers onboard to keep drinks cold. Guess I just assumed the mini bar was unavailable. I know better about a lot of things now... Second point. I love watching birds in flight. We live on a rural lakefront farm in Kissimmee Florida and we are...

We are not talking about a 10 gallon aquarium here. Any contribution to the general turbidity is absolutely insignificant. Second, bread is 100% bio degradable. Third, we have a two acre fish pond in my back yard with several thousand catfish, bass and brim. I also raise Koi. If you have the...

Sleeping sideways is not an option as the bed is actually two beds and there is a noticeable ridge down the middle. You may be able to rotate the whole bed, I never thought to try that. The soda issue is a matter of which machine you get it from. In the case of the deck 9 self serve. check...

Still getting used to the idea that if we want to eat we have to actually cook and wash dishes again. 1) Sea legs. Not sure if our cruise started out super rough but I'm guessing it was getting up there. Two thoughts come to mind. a) Avoid activities that require eye concentration, reading...

While I told the Disney customer service person that I was not seeking any form of compensation, after all it was not something they had any control over, she said she would try to do something for him. The next night the oval table in our room was sprinkled with silver Mickeys, an 8x10...

The new A.C. Wathey Pier and Port Facility is very nice with one unfortunate exception. There is a business in the largest of the new buildings called "Duty Free World" that I would caution you to avoid. After returning our rental car we made one last Tee-shirt run in this store. Big mistake...
