    Which ride(s) do you notice a longer than actual wait time posted?

    Now when we went to Buzz it said 30 minutes. I was hoping it was over stating it..so we got in line and 1 hour and 40 minutes later we got off. It was so not worth it. Unfotunately this was at the beginning of the day and only our 2nd ride. Needless to say DD(4) was now done for the day as well...

    If you were spending $5000 on a Disney vacation...

    I know what I would do- I'd sell the package to one of you guys and go to Ireland for a month.

    Scared 5 year old?

    You never know. Mine is a scardy cat. She had just turned 5. She hates loud noises and vibrations. She did not like Philharmagic much once the special effects started. HATED the glasses. But she asked to go on the barnstormer again! So you just NEVER know.

    Teachers, how do you deal with it?

    About the coment of not tacking on days to breaks. We don't have that restriction although the principal technically is only supposed to call/allow so many subs a day..so if he hears rumor that lots of people are taking a day before or after break he makes the call...he goes by first come first...

    Child Swap

    At HM you stand in that line first and go through the turn stile up near the cemetary/front door. We waited an hour- the whole family in the heat holding our little girl so we could swap. Our first (and laast) attempt.

    Child Swap

    When we went to HM the first CM we encountered was at the turnstile.And that is who we asked.

    Child Swap

    We asked the CM working the "ride"(he was the only CM outside of the ride anywhere) He acted like he had never heard of Child Swap..he went further up the ride (in the front doors)to ask another CM and she either said NO or didn't know what we were talking about either..I didn't hear their...

    Child Swap

    It doesn't work for all rides. We went all the way through line to do it for Haunted mansion_Our daughter is terrified of stuff like that- and they had no idea what i was talking about. Be careful. My husband wasted a good hour waiting for nothing.

    Teens alone in the parks

    unfortunately it only takes one slimebag and a few minutes for your child to be harmed. A few hours of freedom at disney hardly seems like a chance worth taking.

    When did you realize that Disney ruined you for anyplace else?

    We did Disney and Busch Gardens virginia within a few months of each other and I enjoyed BG much more than Disney.

    Teens alone in the parks

    Tough call. Personally I was uncomfortable letting my 15 year old SON go alone across part of the park during the day to see if Space mountain had reopened. I was a nervous wreck the whole time and that was during the day. I for one wouldn't worry about MY child's sense of responsibility or...

    Hurricane Wilma

    I don't mind dropping it..I didn't realize only some people could discuss this. I think this is the biggest hitch here..I can't be happy for people that are blindly walking into a potentially horrible situation. I can pray for everyone in Florida this weekend but can't be happy for them.

    Hurricane Wilma

    Do you suppose the Cat 4-5 hurricane had any reason for his declaration??? I was not flaming... I was just curious to the mindset that saving a few hundred dollars in cancellation fees is worth possibly your safety. Also it is not an argument here that Orlando is in danger. Is has not been in...

    Cancelling because of Wilma

    I'm not sure everyone that was in the path of Katrina would describe it as "exciting'

    Hurricane Wilma

    Why not? I just don't understand the mindset that my life is expendable b/c I can't reschedule my vacation days. it is beyond comprehension to me.
