    Meal advice B&B hotel

    Bonjour :) Family of 2 adults, 2 teens and a youngling are staying in the B&B hotel (not by choice, an economic one) How does the meal plan work exactly? Can I still buy one as I'm staying off site? Looks like the food is going to cost a fair bit so am up for any tips. Thank you: )

    Really well written report. The photos are great. It may have been freezing, but the pictures look more impressive because of it. We're heading there next week :)

    The British Aren't Coming To Orlando

    100% agree The government's cuts have still to be felt by a lot of people. Everyone will feel those, be it in a big or small way.

    The British Aren't Coming To Orlando

    I think its a combination of what has already been said. I don't have the desire to return to Florida as we've been lucky enough to go many times over the years. California, on the other had, is where I really wanna go back, but I digress.. I suspect people are put off by booking a holiday...

    Staying at ASM..I-Drive or Kissimee for off site dining?

    There is a Golden Corral close to Downtown Disney right next to this hotel: http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/mcolx-springhill-suites-orlando-lake-buena-vista-in-marriott-village/ We stayed there last week and had GC a few times. It has an excellent range and offers superb value for money.

    Gatwick closed now, hoping to reopen in the morning! Cloud of Death, just may pass by and if I'm really, really lucky, Gatwick will be okay!! Forgive me for ranting, but I'm all butterflies here and see this forum as therapy at the moment. Taking my stress out on the Xbox right now...

    Ash Tuesday flight delay!! Grrrr!!!

    Supposed to be flying out of Gatwick on Tuesday, but now looks like that won't happen because the ash cloud will be sitting over London. At the moment nobody at Virgin knows what will happen. Fair enough. Does anyone know what's likely to happen to us presuming Gatwick is forced to close for...

    Anyone from the UK been to California?

    We were there last in '08 and stayed at the Radisson Maingate in Anaheim, a few minutes from Disney and loved every minute of it. More so than Florida in many ways. I dont like split holidays staying in a few places as I like being settled. Felt the location was perfect. Disneyland was the...

    June or September??

    As a parent myself, I'm happy to take my kids out of school time for a holiday and am doing so again this May, but I wouldn't in September with the new school year. There is too much going on in school when the new year starts.

    when to go?

    I would never, ever go again during Spring Break. Once went in late Feb-Mid March. Was quite for first two weeks, but towards the end of the holiday there was a MASSIVE influx of Spring Breakers. For example, The Tower of Terror ride was 10 minute wait during our first week, but was 90+...

    School now banning all "out of term" holiday leave

    What do you think would happen to the children should they miss 10 days in a year due to a family holiday? Obviously, not kids who have exams on upcoming. But would their education suffer? Would friendships be damaged? Would their personalities alter in a negative way? I'm not having a go, I'm...
