    Getting to Universal Studios From Beach Club

    You can call Mears the night before you want to go. They will give you a schedule of what their pick-up times are (it is pretty flexible). You go down to the valet area at BC and the shuttle will pick you up. It's ususally a van. One to two hours before you want to leave US, call Mears again...

    Love rain at WDW. Am I nuts?

    We were also at WDW 5/17-24 and never saw rain like that (including the tonado warning)! By the time we had left on the 24th there was almost 16 inches of rain. Never want to see a poncho again!

    Tip: Give Away your Fastpasses!!!

    We had fastpasses for Test Track and congratulated a newlywed couple on their honeymoon who were just married on the same date as we were - except we were celebrating our 33rd anninversary. We gave them our fastpasses and they were really surprised and grateful because the line was 90 minutes...

    Buy Disposable Ponchos before you pack

    We hate wearing ponchos but I will admit that I was doing some shopping at CVS and saw ponchos for $3.00 apiece. Not the greatest quality but would do if the need was there. I decided to buy and pack them because they were small and we were going from 5/17 - 5/24 so in the event we had a...

    It's that time again!!!

    It's great to see that I am not the only one who packs early. I get "harrassed" all the time from my kids (they are all grown) that my luggage is at the front door two weeks before we leave- tagged and ready to go. I usually have 90% packed one month before but have secretly been setting aside...

    Save your Change!

    Also, when you return cans/bottles, if you go to a machine that dispenses change instead of the receipt that you turn in, pocket the change and put it in a bank when you get home. I roll it and take it to the bank and that is "found Disney spending money"

    What should I Bring?

    The coffee maker in the rooms are either a 10 or 12 cup. They give you about 6 disposable cups - no lids - but you can get more if you ask (that is for a studio, 1 bedroom and above you get a small mug). I'll just bring DH's reg. coffee brand. The filters pack flat in a ziploc for the luggage...

    What should I Bring?

    As PP, it depends on what unit you are in. We stay in a studio and I pack coffee, filters, sugar, tea bags and a coulple of regular spoons plus large mugs. The utensils/plates in studios are plastic and the mugs are too small for us. If I get detergent samples I slip them into a ziploc if I...

    Swap a country...

    I would not mind losing Morocco but I think my DH, among others, would be disappointed in losing Mo Rockin' - more specifically the belly dancer!

    BoardWalk, Wilderness Lodge, or Beach Club?

    It all depends where you want to spend most of your time. For us, we love EPCOT and somehow wind up there most of the time. We love BC because it's a 10 minute walk, boats to DHS or you can walk, has the sandy bottom pool, great atmosphere, Beaches and Cream, and love the decor. We also have...

    What puts you in a 'Disney' mood?

    I know it's getting closer and get in the mood by: 1.Waiting for the ME tags to arrive and can tag the luggage that is already out and starting to be packed! 2.When I check my Disney countdown on the desktop all the time! 3.When coworkers ask me how many more days and I get into the double and...

    Someone Got A Celebrations Mag!!!

    Thanks to all of you for the recommendation about Celebrations. I order issues two and three last weekend and they arrived Wednesday (that was fast) and think they are great. I am now going to buy a subscription. Was really surprised at how great this mag. is and has something for everyone...

    I have had guests who think I am a cast member :)

    We were in BCV and there was a guest who wanted to know what there was to do on Halloween for their kids since the MNSSHP was sold out. The CM at the conceirge desk told the dad that he really didn't know what else was offered. I just said excuse me - the dad was right in front of me - and...

    Saratoga Question

    I clocked it last May and it was .5 mile from our room to the food court/gift shop. Not a bad walk timewise but not great when you are carrying your packages sent from the parks plus groceries.

    Carribean Beach to Sea World?

    We picked up a one day car rental at the Dolphin. I checked around at that time for best price and got one for $80. Mears from CB to Seaworld will run $21-22 pp. For Mears, you call the night before for pick up at the resort (their schedule is pretty good) and then when you want to return you...
