Christmas time 1971, I was ten. My mother threw away the ride coupons she kept from that trip 12 years ago. She always thought that she could use them in the future. We will be taking our Son, Daughter in law, and two grandchildren this next trip. Our DIL will be 28 for her first time. Right now...

Some hotel chains place envelopes in the rooms for tips and comments. I choose to tip on the average about $5/day for both my wife and I. We also, like other posters, reuse the towels and even make our own bed. My reason for tipping is more personal. My wife and I both worked in service industry...

Personally, I would wait and save the money. We purchase gift cards $25, $50 or on occasion $100 gift cards with our groceries at markets that offer fuel points for cash spent. Before too long we have saved for another trip.

This post has lasted longer than the Yeti. :(

I think this is Disney Marketing Genius and use of social media helped. How can they get Merida's name on everyone's mind? They change her look and get press both positive and negative. "Any publicity is good publicity"

I was losing alot of weight in hopes of doing this tour. I too must partake in a pint or three at the R&C.

I hope when TT is finished it actually runs well. We have only been on there a handfull of times and it has broken down every time but once.

While I am usually ready to go home, I always begin to look forward to our next trip. I think I would be in a state of depression if I knew I would never go back. Some cultures have no words for "good bye". Travel Well!

We use a water bottle with a wide opening so we can add ice along with water from the venders. DW and either drink water or Iced Tea.

I will be the official Disney Dress for Men Faux Pas poster man when I am there next week. Pick me out when you can. Please no laughing though. I have feelings and I am a big guy with big feelings. Please send any donations to “Proper Dress for Disney Dads”

What about guys that wear kilts? I may just leave mine at home because of Space Mountain.

I am wondering the same thing. It would make sense to me. Especially since much of the next gen system is expected to control the line wait times etc..., allowing people to possibly experience more in a shorter period of time.

Michael Jackson is dead?

When I was ten, I experienced the Magic Kingdom thru the eyes of a 10yo. When I was 18, marveled at EPCOT thru the eyes of an 18yo. When I was 31 I participated in the joy of the Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, and DHS (FKA MGM) with my children. Now more than 20 years later, DW and I get to be more...

After arriving at the resort and checking in, we usually get some lunch and then head to EPCOT to begin our trek around the world. We go to EPCOT because we think it is easier to begin there because the park doesn't seem too crowded as compared to the MK or DHS. Mostly we just take our time...
