I was picked when we were on our trip this month. I made sure to sit near the front, near the centre, and to be very enthusiastic about volunteering, because I'd read that it helps to do those things. Before she actually picked me, the lady choosing the extras asked me if I was eighteen years...

That is slightly less silly than some other things, because at least there IS a "back way" to get into Epcot... but that entrance is on the other side of World Showcase and nowhere near Norway! Here's one I never expected to hear: I was just Skyping with my in-laws, who were in Orlando last...

I would definitely recommend doing MK earlier in the day, taking a break for a couple hours, and then returning for the party as long as you either 1) have more than one day planned for MK (I know you said it's a two-week trip, but you also said you're doing plenty of other stuff besides Disney...

I saw a group of about eight people whose MNSSHP costumes were horned Viking helmets from the shop in the Norway Pavilion, along with the plastic swords and shields. I think even the men in the group, or at least some of them, were wearing the version of the helmet that had the long blonde...

The response we got from many acquaintances about our trip this year was "Why would you go in September when the weather's nice at home? That's silly! You should go in the winter when it's snowing here!" This was from people who were well aware that we weren't planning to go to Florida to lie...

We wore non-Disney costumes. Last year my husband was Cobra Commander from G.I. Joe for Halloween, so for MNSSHP he just wore that costume without the mask. Almost nobody could figure out what he was on Halloween last year, but at MNSSHP last week, several CMs knew what the costume was! I was...

We were at the first party on the 11th and didn't manage to get in line for the Dwarfs until almost 6:35 pm. Thought we'd make it there earlier, but our bus from All-Star Music was slow getting to the park because there'd been a road accident a couple of hours earlier and traffic was still slow...

Wow, that is a beautiful dress! Great job!

Where in Downtown Disney can we get personalized bride and groom mouse ears? World of Disney? Disney's Wonderful World of Memories? We had originally thought about ordering them online ahead of time but decided not to because you don't get a choice of fonts if you order them online. One person's...

My husband and I were at a travel agency a few months ago booking our trip, and although the travel agent was the one on the phone, we could hear everything that the people on the other end said, too. When they put her on hold, the three of us were laughing about the obviously fake names. I...

Are TSMM and Buzz Lightyear actually a whole lot of fun the first time you try them? When I picture a ride with an interactive component where you are trying to score points, I can't really see myself saying, "La la, that was so much fun I just have to ride it again." It seems more like it would...

Hmm, there was a thread recently in which somebody said they thought the first MNSSHP date this year would be September 7 because MK was closing at 7:00 p.m. that evening, and I remember thinking, That's odd; when I looked at the park hours calendar I thought September 12 was likely to be the...

The last time I went to WDW was in 1991 and my husband has never been, so obviously neither of us have firsthand experience of Animal Kingdom. I'm curious as to approximately how long we might want to spend at AK. I'm just wondering how long other people tend to spend touring that park, although...

I love Dug! And Up in general. :cool1:

I did actually make the purchase yesterday, BTW. I was just asking because at that time I wasn't able to get the checkout option to work -- I listed my country as "Canada" but was still only getting the U.S. state dropdown menu and not the Canadian provinces one, which meant I couldn't fill out...

Gosh, I would love it if the Little Mermaid and/or Beauty and the Beast areas were open during my trip in September. :cloud9: I don't think it's likely, but so far it seems possible... :scratchin

If you just put it in your cart right now but don't check out yet, will it really, actually stay in your cart at the $99.95 price after March 21, or do you think it will disappear or bring up an error message if you try to purchase it after then? And if you do go through the checkout now and...

LOL, my husband always calls roast beef "roast beast" because of that, anyway! :laughing:

Yes, it's less than $11.95 if you have a copy of the Unofficial Guide and/or another discount code. I used a 20% coupon code that I found at retailmenot.com or somewhere just by doing a Google search.

If I wore a bikini top without a shirt around a theme park all day (which I would never do anyway, of course), I would just spend my entire day slathering on more and more sunscreen. Does not sound like fun.
