I did not get that detailed on our index cards. My reasoning for using the cards was to give me just a quite snapshot of the day. I included only basic info such as park hours, choice counter service and dinner ADRs. I think I included the firework show times. But our kids are teens so they...

Yeah, I can't get into the Crocs either. I keep imagining what Stacy & Clinton would say on "What Not to Wear" ... Although I will admit that I haven't tried them on - I probably don't know what I'm missing!

We did not ask for a specific longhouse so I can't help you there but we did stay in Tahiti on the first floor in connecting rooms. These rooms were VERY spacious. Even though Tahiti has not been remodeled, the rooms were well-kept (I thought the bedding was a little outdated). The bathroom...

We just returned from a land/sea package. In retrospect: *PEPTO -- I wish I would have packed it as my son had an upset stomach and I had everything else but that! *WATER BOTTLES -- We stopped prior to WDW and got some water bottles but I underestimated the amount of water that we would...

We just returned and went to HDDR for the very first time. We LOVED it and our teen boys laughed way more than they will acknowledge. We celebrated our anniversary there too. Although I mentioned it to the person when I made the ressies, they asked during the dinner that those celebrating an...

At Ghiradelli's we got four sundaes - one caramel, one smores and I think the others were just regular/chocolate (I forget). My middle son got scoops of ice cream in a waffle cone which was HUGE but he still ate all of it!

We just returned and were booked on a Southwest Flight. My hubby signed onto the internet on the ship and printed out our boarding passes. We have five people in our family and had connecting flights -- we had to print like 10 pages of boarding passes but it was worth it to have Group A. The...

We just returned from a four-day cruise and we rented a car from Budget. We picked up the car from the airport. We used our Fast Break card to speed up the rental process at the airport - a HUGE time saver (see Budget.com for details). We drove to Port Canaveral -- I dropped off my husband...

We just returned and we used Budget. I signed up for Fast Break on a recommendation from the Boards and this was a HUGE time saver. After we arrived, I'd say the line for Budget at the airport was at least an hour wait. We walked right past to the garage and got our car immediately. The...

We are a family of five -- Three teenage boys (16, 15 & 13), DH & Myself. Earl of Sandwich - DTD - Dinner - GREAT. We ate here so we could splurge on desserts @ Ghiradelli. Everyone tried something different and we traded sandwiches around - the best loved were the Club and BBQ special -...

We are a family of five -- Myself, DH and three teenage boys (16, 15 & 13). We just returned yesterday from a land/sea package. This trip report outlines our experience at the Polynesian Resort. This was our first stay at the Poly and just our 2nd trip to WDW. I did not request a specific...

I will post on the TRIP board more detailed info on our stay, but I know people are always looking for info on the Poly so I thought I'd summarize on this board first: We are a family of five -- Myself, DH and three teenage boys (16, 15 & 13). I did not request a specific room/longhouse. We...

I feel like it is my duty to make the most of the experience since we don't get to go that often and we are spending a lot of money! Our kids have talked about our first disney cruise for the past six years and I can honestly say it was memorable because I was an informed cruiser. If...

We have the land/sea package so we'll be at the Poly prior to the start of the cruise portion of our vacation. We'll really feel like we got our monies worth if we stay a little later at the hotel before heading to Port Canaveral. On the other hand -- Misseulalie makes a good point -- we do...

We have teens - so there is no rush to get to the Mickey pool. We have made ressies online for Palo & the Spa - no need to rush for these. They board via #s - no need to hurry to get in line to be 1st on the ship. Other than the total excitement of finally being on the ship -- Why do you...

I'm having the same issue - not with work - but trying to hold off actually PACKING all our clothes! We don't leave for one week but I've had a "packing table" set up for two weeks - I just think of something that I need to take and throw it on the table. It has kept me occupied (in addition...

I tried the patch that goes behind your ear on our first cruise because I was afraid that I would get sick. I tend to get motion sickness from watching home videos if you can imagine that! And, I did get nauseated the first night at dinner. I mentioned it to my waiter and he told me that...

Just to clarify -- My teenage boys are 13, 15 and 16 -- And my youngest has no problem reporting details on the activities of his big brothers :) I'm blessed w/very responsible and trustworthy boys. I think the post-it notes along with the simple yet common sense room rules will work best...

How do you keep in touch with your teenagers while on board and/or at Castaway Cay? We'll have the obvious together times like meals and a few family activities where we can touch base on what they are doing and their plans, etc. But I'm trying to think of how to get ahold of them if I...

Have you tried Tiffany towncar service? We used them like 5 years ago and were very happy with their service. I think they are still around but I'm not sure of their link - you'd have to google them. Unfortunately we didn't have little ones at the time that we used them -- I cannot say with...
