    Contemporary Resort Pool/Splash Area

    You're talking about the new area at the back of the waterslide? On the side of the pool nearest the walkway to the marina, right? When we're checking in Sunday, I'll run out back and see! :)

    Haunted Mansion foyer & SSE burning Rome smells

    Kelsybelle - it's funny you mention that. In my searching for the SSE burning Rome smell, I read a post where someone actually knew of a candle that smelled like either burning Rome or the fire scenes in Pirates. Without looking for that thread again, I want to say it was called "Hearth" by...

    Haunted Mansion foyer & SSE burning Rome smells

    I know many folks here love the Haunted Mansion (it's my favorite attraction) and love the smell when you first walk into the foyer. I have found an incense that smells very similar to this called "Evening Zen" manufactured by Shoyeido. Of course, smell is fairly subjective so I'm interested...

    Tours in WDW

    The Keys to the Kingdom (KttK) tour specifies no bags or cameras (I think), but my tour guide only mentioned "no photographs" when we were "offstage". Most of the tour is in the midst of the other 1000's of visitors. Of course, no one brought anything since we all were under the assumption we...

    Favorite Bus Song?

    My favorite music is the themed "island/Hawaiian" music usually played when the bus is in the vicinity of the Polynesian. It's soothing and easily ignored, if you wish to do so. Not to digress, but I don't think I'm a big fan of the music on the busses. I don't recall when it started. It...

    I need some help with planning....

    Hey rickarenu91! I second wvdisneyfamily's suggestion - Wilderness Lodge! The boat to the Contemporary and/or Magic Kingdom is an attraction in itself and connects you directly to the monorail. It's a deluxe resort, one short and fun boat ride away from the monorail, without the "monorail...

    Lesser Known Magical Experiences

    Absolutely, yankspy! I have fond memories of staying at the Tree House Villas with a rented golf cart - driving over to the Village was really cool, especially since I wasn't old enough to drive a car at the time.

    Lesser Known Magical Experiences

    There you go - very nice! I can think of no other vacation destination that has something to quite compare to the monorail resort loop. And unlike taxis and buses at other resort towns, the monorail is pretty much mistake-proof.

    Is Yacht Club worth the $$$?

    Hey wdwshelby! I have heard people, including myself, say Yacht Club wasn't their favorite, though it is quite nice. I have never heard anyone say they regretted a trip to WDW because they stayed there! You will love the pool. You will become a Beaches & Cream addict like everyone else who...

    Lesser Known Magical Experiences

    Hey dreamscometrue! I think a lot of folks enjoy Deluxe resort surfing via the monorail. This is especially fun and convenient if you are staying at one of the three on the line (Grand Floridian, Contemporary and Polynesian). Let's also add Wilderness Lodge to this (hop off the Monorail at...
