    HHN Loud Noises

    My younger brother is also sensitive to loud sounds. He carries ear plugs with him, and puts them in before entering each house. That always helps to cut down on some of the noise.

    Pepsi

    Universal only sells Coke products as well. SeaWorld has Pepsi though.

    Refillable Cup Question

    Universal's cups are reusable every day you come back (even on subsequent trips), but refills are not free. Refills are 79 cents. If you ask politely, the team members will refill them with water for free. Mine does not have a handle, so I either carry it around with me, or put it in the...

    Thanks, will definitely give them a look as well. It's always good to have options for future purchases :thumbsup2

    Recommended place to buy Canon lenses

    I will definitely avoid making any purchases with Best Buy online. This situation really opened my eyes. After I called and posted on their help forum (and I think bugged them to death) BB cancelled my order Tuesday "due to availability issues." I was able to purchase the same lens for $12...

    Butterbeer and pumpkin juice?

    Another vote for the frozen butterbeer. The regular version is good, but too sweet for me. Below is my usual meal at The Three Broomsticks. Shepherd's Pie and Garden Salad. For dessert, I sometimes buy the warm apple pie that they serve (not pictured).

    Recommended place to buy Canon lenses

    Well, it seems they are true... and believe me, I won't be purchasing lenses from them again :laughing: I spoke with their customer service today who basically told me they had no idea when I would get my lens. They outsourced my order to another fulfillment company who is supposed to take...

    Processing Foggy Photos

    I second this. Also, try adding a Levels adjustment layer, and that should help remove some of the fog if the photo is properly focused.

    Recommended place to buy Canon lenses

    Thanks for all the advice so far, definitely gave me something to think about. Still no word on when my lens will ship, or if it will. Really wanted to shoot with it this week. I looked more into Best Buy's accidental plan, and have read numerous complaints about it. Apparently, if the...

    At the bottom of the lake . . .

    Recommended place to buy Canon lenses

    I'm having an issue with Best Buy either not having the lens I need in stock, or only being available online. I ordered a lens from BB online last week and it still hasn't processed, so I'm becoming a little frustrated. With that said, had a few questions... Where do you usually buy lenses...

    Am I totally screwed? Taking Kit Lens to Disney World

    The kit lens has been one of my favorite lenses to use at WDW. Mine had a little accident recently and needs to be replaced though. Below are a couple low-light photos I've taken with it. Both are handheld, no flash. My tip would be to make sure your shutter speed is faster than your focal...

    Tips/Strategies for photographing WDW

    I've never heard of this problem before. I'm out at the parks with my DSLR all the time. I photograph some of the weirdest things from crazy angles. I've crawled on the ground trying to photograph bees landing on flowers, gotten myself in odd positions... and have never once been approached by...

    Obnoxious late-comer parade viewer situation - need to vent!

    I think everyone in the thread is just venting a little. These are all "worst case scenarios." I've watched the parades many times next to very friendly people, and had an amazing time. For some reason, parades tend to make people go a little loopy, but your experience may differ, and the rest...

    Obnoxious late-comer parade viewer situation - need to vent!

    Wait a minute... so I'm not supposed to be kicked repeatedly and have drinks spilled all over me? Nice to know that I've been watching the parades the wrong way all these years :rotfl: The next thing you know, you'll be telling me that I'm not supposed to get elbowed in the face while...

    Need Advice, Wall-E Action Figure

    Thanks for the heads-up! I never go into the Mission:Space shop, would not have thought to look there.

    Need Advice, Wall-E Action Figure

    I'm headed out to the parks today, and have an agenda to find a Wall-E action figure (3-5 inches). I know Once Upon A Toy usually has a nice stock of toys, but which stores inside the parks would be likely to carry the action figure? I have a few starting places in mind, but it's been a while...

    Refillable Cup Question

    I had a couple questions about the souvenir cups and thought someone here might know. I have the red cup from this year (without the handle). I've seen the version with a handle and was curious to know if that version is still available to purchase. If so, where might I find it in the parks...
