I think that I would try to get south of Nashville the first nite. What I mean is...as far south of Nashville as possible. Two additional hours of driving the first nite can make a world of difference. The drive from Nashville to Chatanooga, Atlanta, ect.... would be that much shorter. Then...

What ever you wear...just don't forget the deoderant and sunscreen. Especially the sunscreen. My kids always get a little red at Disney.

FYI...I know of no school in Indiana that is closed for President's Week. Some schools were off on Monday for President's Day, but some had to use it as a snow make-up day. Do you really think that resort bookings are down for the upcoming summer months..even with all these 'special offers' and...

Why is this embarrassing for you?

ok, I feel everybody's pain, including my own. LOL. We are on the Dave Ramsey plan and remodeling...with cash. So, 2010 is a short 'maybe' and the long 'maybe' will be even more years than that. The silver lining of all of this is that we have WDWMAGIC and our Disney Visa Rewards dollars. We are...

A big second to the Crystal Palace. We ate a late lunch there and paid lunch prices instead of dinner prices. Chef Mickey's restaurant at the Contemparary Resort is great for breakfast. Mickey, Minney, Pluto, Chip and Dale were there from what I remember. At both of these places, the characters...

From Mom to Momma: You might want to take your own nice, big stroller for the parks or rent one of theirs. THere are miles and miles of walking at each of parks. The Moderate resorts are a little pricer but they have water slides at their pools, instead of getting the water park and more...

When planning our 2008 trip, I read reviews of Port Orleans and found tons of reviews slamming the housekeeping. I read that things were dirty in the rooms, dusty, dirty bathrooms, ect... Well, I made reservations there anyway, and we had a hugely fabulous time.!!! Would go back there in a...

Notice Expedition Everest in the background, as well as CSR, Contemparary, and is that Pop Century's unfinished buildings? I can't identify any thing else, can anyone help me out here? Great shots.!!

The 'kids 3-9 play and dine free' pin code offer that we received ended in April. What really hurts is that our youngest is 10, so we totally didn't qualify for the pin code for spring break anyway. double ouch. Hang in there, sometimes you just have to pay the Piper...or in this case, Disney...

DS loves water parks and slides but has a quirky phobia about water in his eyes. Every time we go to a water park, or any pool for that matter, he gets by with speedo goggles. These are the swimming goggles, not the big snorkling goggles. They do just fine and he has a great time.

When I talk to a lot of people, they mention the price...$70ish per day per person. They don't take into consideration how much entertainment you get for your buck, the entire immersion into the 'Disney experience' and how the longer length of stay can affect the price. With the Dining Plan, it...

Don't rub it in. We have more life experience to get us out of any situation.

TO CONTINUE WITH THE PIN MANIA THREAD: We finally got one.!!! It's Kids 3-9 Stay, Play and Dine for free $794 per adult from 3-1/ 4-16. I thought that this was free dining for everybody, [I'm so naive] so I called and priced the Poly and was told that this wonderful PIN offer that Disney sent...

Have they shut down sections of resorts? If so, which ones?
