    New RFID technology in the parks?

    I never link a credit card to a room card. I also tell them not to let any kttw have charge privileges. So I don't have to worry about lost cards winding up charging stuff to my room. Just tell them no when they ask you during check in. Your kttw will say "no charging" or something on front.

    Disney songs redone as rock songs...

    When I was in Polynesian's gift shop last month, I heard some Disney songs redone as rock songs. I'm not sure which songs, but it was catchy. It would be nice to have them. Does anyone know which songs have been redone, is there a list? Its hard to find a download site without knowing which...

    48 inches tall...

    Mine hated takeoff in rnrc. After the first loop she loved it and wanted to go again. I think the buildup to takeoff was worse than the actual launch. Seeing the others go first, pulling up and watching the sign...

    To stroller or not to stroller?

    I agree. You may think you can carry her, but when you're hot and sweaty and tired, you don't want to carry someone else who is hot and sweaty and tired. August is miserable. Take a stroller. You can always ditch it before coming home. Mine ditched the disney stroller permanently at age six.

    Epcot Japan Addition

    I've seen that look. As if you can go to wdw and not get photographed...even though in 99% of the cases it's not you they want, but whatever is behind you. I am waiting for the day when some jerk says, "why are you photographing my kid?" and I can calmly answer, with as straight a face as I can...

    Thunderstorms in WDW

    I don't worry much about lightning. If it hits you, you either wake up in the hospital, or not at all. Plus, if you're close enough to hear thunder you can get hit. I photograph it, and I've seen it cluster under a storm, and suddenly throw out a random strike miles to the side. I've been twenty...

    Which of These Character Breakfast Is Your Fave???

    Akershus! Big time fav character breakfast. We generally save our table service for evening. We eat late at akershus, say 930-1015, then have a light snack and usually do the boulangerie patisserie for dinner. I like the breakfast food in general. It's not a tradeoff between princesses and...

    Is Star Tours 2 a Bust?

    Went on it in mid June. Loved the addition of c3po instead of the generic droid. I almost wished there was more of a line this time. The queue line has some awesome stuff in it, from the at-at walker with the obvious movie set portions exposed,to the droid repair area. We shot through the line...

    35mm f/1.8 came finally!

    I've been thinking about one of these... Everyone swears by the nifty fifty, but I'm on a crop sensor body, and I think the 35 mm might be a little more like the old 50mm on a full frame. 28mm might work even better, I just can't decide. And since I have to have a tree in my yard removed, it...

    Our 100 years of magic ponchos. Yes - we kept them since 2002. Power strip with USB charging holes Powerade drink mix. Three cases of coke, so I don't have to buy a mug the whole trip. Books for reading at night.

    Drinking bird in GMR Alien scene?

    I remember the drinking birds from the nostromo. I'm thinking it was during the opening sequence where the camera is moving through the ship, but it may be later in the movie. Now I'll have to Netflix it. Damn.

    Say Cheese! Mickey Is catching you with Red Lights.

    So.... When you get to Disney world.... Just take off your license plate and put it in the trunk? I've only seen one cop there when there's no accident, and I drive a lot around the World so I don't have to do the bus thing. Of course, I'm a sedate driver, I don't run red lights. And if I...

    Balzac no longer for sale in any of the Disney parks

    I asked how much the bigger ones were years ago. They were expensive. In the $100 range. Yoga balls are cheap, durable and fun. I got my kid one for $20. Not surprised they closed.

    No more free drinks at All Star Sports Resort

    Wow.... I never believed this would go for so long. For the whiners who don't want to buy mugs..... Bring a cooler and some coke with you. I haven't bought mugs in years. If you're in a moderate instead of a cheap resort....use the fridge. You won't have to walk to the food court and back...

    need advise on a stoller situation please

    Get a cheapo umbrella or used stroller from a flea market or yard sale. Take it down there and when your trip is over, just chuck it in a dumpster or leave it at the hotel room. Less to pack back and by the end of your trip it's likely to be nasty/wet/stained/broken any way. We did that...

    If you were at WDW right now, what would you be doing?

    Standing in line listening to all the foreigners talk in their wierd languages, and trying to understand some Spanish although it's been 20 years since Spanish in high school. Watching electric grannies in scooters skipping the 45 minute line ive been waiting in for 40 minutes, and getting on...

    In-Room Safe Size?

    I just put mine in it's case, under the dirty underwear. It was fine. I can see a maid taking 10$ or an earring, after all you could misplace that any where. But an iPad? Disney knows who worked what rooms. I did lock up my park cash and my backup hard drive (which I always take on trips in case...

    Polynesian

    I love poly! I want to stay there next time myself. This trip on my MK days I planned evening meals at poly. We drove in from Caribbean beach in the morning, took the monorail to MK, and stayed all day. Then food at night and drive back. So convenient to MK and the guards don't give you the evil...

    ValidFill at Resorts

    I bought mugs my first couple of years. Then for the next couple of years I just took my old mug back. When the star on my all-star mug was about washed off I came up with a new plan. The mugs suck. By the time you walk back from the food court, you've drunk all of it. If you take the stupid...
