We're flying in on a late Friday night and checking into DVC the next day, so we're staying at Pop Century for that Friday night; that way we can still use ME and then Bell Services will take care of transferring our luggage from one hotel to the other. We've done this in the past and it works...

I just ordered new passports for my kids (DD14 and DS11) because theirs were expired. As PP mentioned, you cannot "renew" a child's passport and they are only good for 5 years instead of 10. Anyway, they came in 3 weeks - we did not pay for expediting. But of course every situation could be...

DH and I are also planning a DCL cruise to Europe for our 20th anniversary in the summer of 2016!!! Based on the various rumors around, we are probably going to be heading to the Nordic cruise. While we'd love the Mediterranean, if those don't start until August, we're out because of the kids...

My DD14 collects mini snowglobes (glass, not plastic) as well and has 75+. We always get a Disney snowglobe, by far the largest part of her collection. While I've found that since the liquids ban on airlines it's getting harder to find them, you should still be able to find enough at Disney in...

I've made a reservation using my DVC points for a friend and his son in December. Will I get the "customize the magic bands" e-mail or will he? (I don't recall ever entering his e-mail into the system, only his home address.) I've already made his Magical Express reservations. He has an...

We went at rope drop in August, on a crowd "8" day, and waited 20 minutes in stand-by line. You can still ride without a FP!

We did this on August 3. There was no "margarita flight" that I saw. When we walked in (we were the first ones there, and there were 10 people total), there was already three glasses set out that each had about a shot of tequila. There were also two shot glasses on the side - one with vodka...

We were there this past February and the weather was hit or miss, but the kids managed to get some pool / Typhoon Lagoon time in a few days. As for crowds, in addition to President's Day you also need to check for the racing events. The weekend of the Princess Half Marathon was CRAZY. On...

You do have a lot of buffets listed, but your 2-year-old is free regardless so that's a wash... So with all of those buffets I can see that you might come closer to even than people who eat at a lot of menu-based restaurants. I'm very surprised that with going to Universal you are still...

I honestly don't remember but I THINK that they gave me credit for the full Disney ticket price, not what I paid from UCT. I believe he made a comment about what a good deal I was getting, because he could see from my tickets exactly how much I had paid for them. Hopefully this isn't one of...

I will be sending my DS11 and DD14 back to the resort with someone. I don't want to bring them along - don't want to pay for them to stand around and drink soda and I want to have some "adults only" time and I don't usually take my kids into bars.

Mine was at the International Gateway entrance to Epcot. He definitely made me walk back to get the paper tickets. I guess each CM will do things a bit differently, but other than that it was a very smooth transaction and I could tell that the CM had done this many times before so I felt very...

Haven't been yet but have 2 ressies for upcoming trip. I don't believe it's ever been "adults only". However, there aren't any discounts for children ($35 per person regardless) and since it's an alcohol-themed event, and a bit later at night, I don't think many people have been bringing kids...

I upgraded 6-day Water Parks & More passes in February to DVC annual passes. I did it on the last day of our passes. I was able to do all 4 of them (me, DH, DD and DS) by myself, they did not need to be with me (and they had no problem leaving me at Guest Services while they went inside Epcot...

I voted "no" not because of the menu, because it will continually change (as do most restaurants). I agree you have to filter that out of the reviews. But 3 trips in a row, over the course of 3 years, we had TERRIBLE service. How many chances can you give a restaurant? Perhaps the layout of...

Well, maybe not quite what you were looking for but my sister is named Wendy after Peter Pan... I named my daughter Madison after the mermaid in Splash (and she was thrilled to see the statue at HS earlier this year from the movie!).

Has anyone used the boat shuttle from SSR over to the West Side? I'm wondering how that's working right now. DS11 really wants to go to Disney Quest and we have park hoppers & more so I'd like to get him there once or twice if possible...

I give each child $50 for the week, and just keep a running tally. They get to keep any $$ left over at the end of the week. It's amazing how much they have to decide if they REALLY want that stuffed animal or spinning light thing when they know they could keep the cash instead once they get...

I think hard ticket events are treated differently than EMH because there is extra entertainment involved - it's not just about the rides. There are many music stages at Night of Joy with professional bands and singers, so even if you weren't on the rides you would still be at the "concerts"...

Trying both Tutto Gusto and La Cava del Tequila in a few weeks, so excited! I tried making a ressie for a Monday (my birthday) but none were available, but all 4 were available the day before. Does anyone know if there are certain days of the week that it's not available?
