We ate at Artist Point on September 17 and the food was spectacular. We had a window view but was rather pointless as the sun had gone down. But upon walking outside later, the view would have been amazing. We had the Duck Confit and Crispy Venison Spring Rolls as appetizers. Both were...

So I was going through the 2005 Vacation Planning Kit DVD and found an Easter Egg of outtakes from the hosts. I haven't seen a post before on this so I figured I'd pass it on. You need to click "Scene Selection" and then "more." Under the "Downtown Disney" and above the "Back" and "Main"...

It really comes down to how much money you are willing to spend and how much time you spend in your room or at the resort. We stayed at the Coronado Springs Resort and I thought the resort overall was pretty good. The rooms were nice and the bus service was incredible. The lines for the buses...

Mummy has a launched hill??? Thanks for spoiling that one! : ) In my opinion, aren't spoilers what most of these boards are about? But...Is there a difference between Spoilers and Information? You say you want to experience things for the first time, but if you aren't told about certain...

Four of us adults...with no children...went to Whispering Canyon for dinner last month. We took later reservations as to not have the din of the room blow our ear drums out, but early enough to have a great time. It's hard to believe that diners in Artist Point can't hear what's going on just...

Compared to Space Mountain at Disneyland, I find the Florida version very uncomfortable on both tracks. I have very long legs and the ride is not very forgiving for that. I really couldn't tell a difference between either of the tracks. It takes on a different feel when you sit by yourself...

Who knew a simple trip report would spin itself into a whole new topic. We stayed at the Coronado Springs Resort in mid-September and only had one ECV when picking up someone from the Fort Wilderness area after having a wonderful dinner at Artist Point at the Lodge. This guy had a sprained...

We stayed in Casitas 3 and overlooked the Lake. It was a great location in proximity to the lobby, the restaurant and the store. The store is helpful because you can have most items purchased in the park sent to the store for pick-up the next day. It was pretty much the furthest thing from...

How were the Fish and Chips at Epcot? We ended up skipping that and headed somewhere else in the World Showcase.

Just because there was free dining didn't mean you shouldn't have paid a little extra for nicer dinners. We used our Table Service credits for Biergarten, Flying Fish and Artist Point. Therefore we paid full price for Whispering Canyon. The dining plan worked for as much as it could. I would...

You're at Epcot....How often do you go out for foods that aren't considered American. Go for something a little different and save the Pork, Catfish and Flank Steak for another day.

We used EMH at the MK on Wednesday, September 14, 2005. We actually flew in that afternoon and walked through the gates at 6:00pm They were giving away wrist bands already around Pirates of the Caribbean. To make a long story longer, we walked over to Big Thunder Mountain and Splash...

The dining plan is only as good as you want to make it. If you like to have nice sit down dinners and experiment with different foods, then the plan might be worth it for you. We initially had a AAA rate at CSR but with the "free dining plan" it cost us $30.00 more per day for the both of...

Ask for Ketchup. Or Catsup! I personally don't like it, but it seemed that there were tables more than happy to share.

We found the CS food choices rather boring at MGM. We ended up at the Backlot Express. I had the Chicken Fingers which were....well....Chicken Fingers. My wife had the Turkey and Cheese Panini type sandwich and she thought it was pretty good. Good luck.

We made reservations for all of our TS meals, but we ended up changing 1/2 of them when we decided to eat earlier or later or had a change of cuisine in our head. It's good to have some sort of loose structure so that you can fall back on something. We went in the middle of September and it...

Our card also had the words "Disney Dining Plan" on it. Most of the time they would ask, but there was one time paid for the water when I thought they took it off the Snack. I usually just said, "Can I have a "fill-in-the-blank" off the dining plan "snack" please. Simple as that. Have a...

Instead of having characters all over the place in the park, they have a bus that takes a bunch of the characters around. We saw it stopped near the boat landings on the Future World side of the lake. They got off, took pictures and then made a slow journey towards Mexico in the Village...

I'm glad to hear the tour at one time was something special. It's just plain pathetic as it stands today. I don't know if there's a Studio Tour at Universal Florida, but the Tour at Universal Studios Hollywood beats MGM to a pulp. They really should just make Catastrophe Canyon a walk through...

All the fish dishes we ordered were nice big fillet cuts. There were no heads, tails, scales or fins attached to them. Their Potato Wrapped Red Snapper had a crisp potato exterior and a perfectly cooked red snapper inside. The "bagged" snapper was placed in a leek/red wine reduction sauce...
