From what I've heard... ...Philharmagic should be a pretty cool show!

Just returned... ...from a four-day stay at Beach Club--my first stay as well. It's a gorgeous resort, with large rooms and "Hidden Mickeys" in the bedspreads. Here's a word of warning: There are snack trays atop your armoire which will be tempting to your kids. I issue this warning because...

Love to hear... ...the haunted stories about the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean!!! Can you relay them here--or direct me to Web sites that will detail the stories? Thanks. Josh MAKING MEMORIES!!

It's my opinion... ...that Typhoon Lagoon is a better-themed water park. (I'm not sure about River Country; I've only seen it from a boat.) However, if you're *into* bigger, more thrilling slides, you'll love Blizzard Beach. I think BB has the more "daredevil" slides. However, Typhoon does...

I've stayed at CBR twice over the years, and I cannot recall there being any area from which you can see Spaceship Earth. However, it would be great to hear there *is* such a view. Josh ***"A WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORT OUTING" New Travel Guide***

Another vote... ...for Mama Melrose's, but I also love Chefs de France, as well--particularly the veal medallions! Josh ***"A Walt Disney World Resort Outing" NEW TRAVEL GUIDE***

My pet peeve... ...is smokers who disregard the designated smoking area--and cast members who refuse to confront them when they *are* ignoring the rules. I know it's difficult to *invite* a conflict, but the rule becomes ridiculous when a cast member sees someone smoking as they tour the...

My vote... ...would be for Coronado Springs Resort. IMHO, it has the *best* food court among the moderates, as well as a great table-service restaurant, Maya Grill. It's scenic, fresh--has a bus leg to BoardWalk as well. And while I have stayed at all the resorts, I enjoy Coronado Springs...

Just Wondering... What did you think of the ride? At first, I was a bit put off by the Wild Mouse style of attraction. But the photos I've seen of the vehicles look pretty cool. How does it compare to, say, Space Moutain? Josh ***"A Walt Disney World Outing" New Travel Guide***
