    Blizzard Beach or Typhoon Lagoon?

    TYphoon Lagoon- who wants to be in snow when you're on Vacation!! ( especially when you're trying to get away from the snow!!) seriously- love the wave pool and the lazy river for non "riders"- there's also more shade at TL

    About Motion Sickness...

    I have really bad motion sickness, and was really worried when I went to WDW, but I never got it once! I think it was I was so excited to be there, and determined NOT to ruin my trip, that it was mind over matter!

    Seriously-how do you afford it?

    Thanks for all your responses! There is a lot to consider, but... How I got 5k: Airfare from Winnipeg ( Canada) was/is $900 PER PERSON - I have to travel in the summer- Im a teacher- and there is no way I could drive that distance. Value Hotel w/ Hopper and food plan was about 2,000 US-...

    Seriously-how do you afford it?

    I am truly wondering how you afford to go to Disney World several times a year. We went last summer and it was a trip of a lifetime! We are planning to go back, but not until 2007 because it will cost us a about 5 grand to go just my son and I, by the time all is said and done. I understand if...

    P.O. French Quarter or Riverside?

    We loved POFQ... it was small, and beautiful and very peaceful. We went to Riverside to eat a few times, and while it is beautiful, you couldn't pay me to walk to my room from the bustop after a long day at Disney!- :lol: Everything is very close at FQ, but not where you feel smothered. If you...

    The Bottom Line about WDW Attendance

    I'm more of a lurker than a poster but I had to reply .... I think we have to remember, there are people like me who planned their VERY FIRST trip ever and for the most part joined the forum to help with their trip. We aren't forum experts and don't know about the search functions etc.. Being...

    anyone been to disney in july

    We went the week after the July 4th weekend, and really didn't find it that bad. There were a few days where it was crowed, but the wait lines weren't very long. Yeah it was hot...but not unbearable. Im from Canada and was expecting it to be unmanagable, but it really wasn't. I have never been...

    Official "I aint ridin' Everest!" club

    I don't know if I'll ride or not... I can't ride RNR or Space MNt becuse its inclosed and in the dark--- little claustraphobic.( sp?) But I can ride Splash over and over- it's weird, 'cause its dark too. But the main drop is not inclosed. I don't know, I think it's not being able to see where...

    Breakfast and the Disney Dining Plan

    We used the plan this summer and it was awesome... But if we did it again, we would use the counter service for breakfast and not lunch. The reason? There is so much food we were never hungry by dinner! Unless you eat lunch at 11 and dinner at 7 you may want to try the breakfast thing. Also...

    Thoughts on Kilimanjaro Safaris

    The KS was one of our favourite rides! We went to DW for the first time ever this summer, and we couldn't wait to ride it! The only complaint I had was our driver was going a little too fast for some of the pictures... they came out a little blurry even with fast shutter speed. I'd love for...

    Friday's Christmas Parade Taping

    Sorry for the stupid question, but when do they show the parade on TV? I assume its Xmas Day- but you never know with all the Xmas specials out there... I'm a new Disney Freak, so I have lots of stupid questions! hee hee

    can I ask what camera you have and what settings you use? Everytime I try to take pictures of the fireworks, they turn out blurry!

    rides that scared you the most

    Dinosaur by far!! My son had to be held so he wouldn't jump out of the car! ( He's 12- and nothing really scares him) It was how realistic it was, and being in the dark with things jumping out at you didn't help either! ( Of course we bought the picture because his face lets us relive that...

    Port Orleans Frech Quarter

    I disagree with the member that said the food was terrible. We had no complaints at all! Everything was hot a fresh and super tasty. The CM's were very flexable on what counted as a "snack" on our meal plan. The hotel grounds are the best! Peaceful and very beautiful. The rooms are well, hotel...

    Pressed Pennies

    This was my son's favourite thing to do! and being a frist timer, we didn't know there are books you can buy to all your pennies in- great investment- although we HAD to fill the book before we left! ( we actually had extras) as far as finding them- we never even had to look- they're...

    Boatwright's Jambalaya

    We hated the jambalya!! It was mostly rice- no"extras" and very spicy. Now we like spicy- but this was un-eatable!! Never again.
