    Gator grabs 2 year old at Grand Floridian?

    We're on the poly right now. We were at the beach waiting for the fireworks when the chopper arrived and boat traffic with guests stopped. They were searching near the gf beach and that island in front of the lagoon. They didn't tell us what was going on. After the fireworks, i went into the...

    We went to the After Hours event invited by DVC!! - A review

    I'm in the same boat as you. We will not be able to take advantage of any of the announced parties as our big family trip will be on august when, as of now, there is nothing announced. If this event is offered then to DVC members for free again (or even a small fee), I will not even think about...

    We went to the After Hours event invited by DVC!! - A review

    That is the same as DVC members complaining about not getting free dining when it's offered to cash paying guests. And when they say it was not a success, who are they referring to? To the ones attending, I'm pretty sure they got what they paid for, a park almost to themselves to ride what they...

    We went to the After Hours event invited by DVC!! - A review

    Thanks for the info on tomorrowland. I think this was the first day this event was offered. There are other dates on sale of course, but who knows if dvc members will be invited. The email did mention that this was part of the 25th anniversary celebration. Since we will not be able to take...

    We went to the After Hours event invited by DVC!! - A review

    Correct, I received an email from DVC the day before stating that this paid event ($149 value) was being offered to a limited quantity of people that signed up online on a first come- first serve basis. I don't know if this was sent only to members staying on points on the date or not, but I did...

    We went to the After Hours event invited by DVC!! - A review

    Here is how it went: Wednesday 13th: My 9yo DD and I are waiting and relaxing on the lobby of the Grand Floridian Hotel, waiting for our 4:20 reservation into 1900 Park Fare dinner with Cindy and friends. We found a nice plush sofa, and we are resting there after a morning spent in Epcot. Our...

    Help with picking a place to stay our night before our cruise???

    We are looking for the same. Last time we cruised we stayed for a couple of days before in Saint Augustine. It was a very nice area. We stayed on the Hilton right in the historic area and went walking up and down St. George St, visited the Pirate Museum where we got some items for the pirate...

    Re-imagined Magic concierge suites - question about couch

    Thank you so much! It looks like you had one of the midship suites. Those have a configuration that is different than the one we are booked at (8522) which is a bit forward and the sofa faces the TV. Can I ask you if you had problems with the noise from the deck above? It looks like the suite...

    Re-imagined Magic concierge suites - question about couch

    Hi, I have being searching for information about the refurbished suites on the Magic, but there isn't much information out there yet. We have booked a 1 bedroom suite for our cruise in January and we are SO very excited. I'm trying to decide if I should bring a pillow top mattress for the pull...

    I have split reservations on BWV and SSR - One starting Jan 3rd and the other Jan 8th. I'd been trying to link my will call ticket number to my reservation, but only the BWV reservation is available to link. Also the magic bands are only available for the BWV reservation. When I called the MDE...

    Day Trip to St. Augustine (added review)

    We just stopped in St Augustine for a couple of days before our cruise. We are also fans of the food network and like to eat good food. This is what we did: Pirate museum. My kids (9 and 7) loved it. Lots of interactive stuff. It is a small place, so it shouldn't take more than an hour of...

    BCV or BWV Boardwalk View

    I love the boardwalk view, you can do some serious people watching, watch some of illuminations, see all the entertainment, all without getting up your chair in the balcony. It is a little noisy though, specially in the lower floors, but we don't mind. We stayed once at the beach club, and we...

    How I Survived 11 Days at WDW with a Disney-Resistant Husband **2/20 THE END **

    Hi. I just wanted to comment that you are not alone in the world!! I too struggle with a husband that barely tolerates our trips to disney. By your description of him, it looks like both our husbands share some traits. He also travels a lot for work and when he is home he hardly ever just sit...

    Bush Gardens?????

    We just got back from BG. Our girls are 4 and 6 and they liked the sesame street area and the area where the 3D theater is that has some kiddy games. We saw the animals but we were not impressed by the safari. The park is big and most of the rides are roller coasters. DH and I did go into the...

    Busch Gardens Tampa characters

    We just return from Tampa. We went to Bush Gardens and spent a whole lot of time in the new sesame street area. Although we didn't take pictures with the characters, we did saw the show with Elmo, Grover, Cookie, Zoe and the pink fairy (don't know her name). Big bird was not part of the show...
