If it was someone who joined today to say HURRRR DIZNEE SUCKS, then I agree, but this is someone who has been a part of the community for 8 years and has a vested interest in the park and perhaps some of the bonds with the community at large and sharing her constructive thoughts should...

We are getting in for the weekend for a tournament and have tomorrow afternoon/night pretty much solely for the parks and we hoping to visit HHN, buying the express passes along with it, but am I reading it correctly you cannot buy tickets JUST for HHN (and be let in at 6:30)? We have a 5k...

If you are staying a week at the Waldorf versus a week at the GF, that's an extra $2100 in pocket money just from lodging. For that, I'll gladly hire a private car to shuttle me back and forth to the airport and still have enough for a taxi to whatever park I want each day. Likewise, while I...

Discovery Island, it was free, or near to it, was off the beaten path so rewarded people who knew about it and took the time to go, and was rewarded with a wonderful selection of animals including Sun Conures that would land on you.

One of the big differences between Disney and Universal, that was touched on earlier, is that before and during your trip at Disney, you have to plan, plan, plan. If you want premium dining, you have to jump on the phone 180 days in advance and hope for the best, same with the fireworks cruise...

Posts 19 and 26 to be specific, but looking back through the thread they are thankfully in the minority.

Definitely would not do it on a trip where time is of the essence to try and hit all the parks and rides, but if you have an extra day with time to fill, or you have been to the park a few times before, then it is a lot of fun. Our son, 8 at the time, had a great time solving puzzles, looking...

Thank you and it really bothers me too that people are saying 'get a life' or 'get a different friend' because she cares about the welfare of the animals. I too have avoided Sea World for the past 10 years (and closer to home, the Atlanta Zoo and Georgia Aquarium) for much the same reason. I...

Mine is not a hypothetical, it really happened around 2009, and the ride was Expedition Everest. It was getting close to closing time in the evening. My wife and mother and son were at the hotel after a long day, while my brother, his wife, and I wanted to ride EE one last time. We are in...

Call me the old fart, and maybe it's because of my love of classic film, but like Universal next door, I loved what it used to be and represent a lot more than what it has become now. The rides are certainly better than they ever have been, but the theme of the park has really lost focus. It...

We were in this situation last fall with one free day. Granted there were only three of us, but you are looking to spend over $1000 to have the privilege of running around trying to maximize fast passes, waiting in long lines, just getting TO the park itself. We ended up going to a go-kart...

I think Dell, HP, and a few other online sites have Windows 7 as options for some of their machines still, and definitely recommend that over Win 8. have you considered an iPad? What exactly will be the purpose of the machine overall? An iPad would be a great way to have all of the common...

This thread will likely get moved but what did ou want to know? Stayed for four days a couple of years ago at the NC one. We went during Georgia's spring break and it wasn't too bad for the first half of the trip, but apparently NC's spring break occurred during the second half and the pools...

You can find coupons for places like those here and there, but yeah, the general price is $50 per person for the buffet, and I think some of them include lobster along with that as well. Crazy expensive for a buffet I agree when you can spend that at a nice upscale place and not feel like cattle.

You can. There's not much to look at save for movie posters from the past 40 something years hanging on the boards, and a couple of employees dressed up as tourists 'yukking it up' with people walking by, whose hearts didn't really seem into it. Still, it's better than going back the long way.

We will be going down for a karate tournament in late October and planning on skipping Disney and Universal this time around (having just done Universal over spring break). Since it is a big tournament for him, I want to spoil him with the best, most fun hotel that a 10-year old boy can...

Just to make sure I'm not crazy. If you plan on going three days within a 14-day period (or whatever they offer directly through Universal), you aren't saving as much, correct? I have a Costco nearby that I can hit up, but we will be going three days with maybe a one-day gap in between and...

She was escorted out after shooting the Big Bad Wolf from a helicopter.

I don't care about the jaguars, but are the cougars hot? I may have to rethink my upcoming trip's hotel choice.
