I can't even explain how much I hate this.

Thanks, this is what we're going to tell her. :)

Yeah... I was thinking that if it was, say, the Contemporary, they'd be a lot more guarded about it since people DO try to park there to avoid the TTC parking fee. But at POFQ that's not really an issue.

Yes, we're driving from New York, so we'll have our own car with us, so we'll have the pass in our car.

I have a feeling this is going to be controversial... been here long enough to know! Haha So... next week we'll be staying at POFQ. My cousin and her kids who live in Tampa will be visiting us in WDW for one day during our stay. We were hoping to use our hotel room as a "base" for the day, ie...

You mean the rolling chairs? I can't speak to having been in Atlantic City at the turn of the century, but as for now... well, it can be pretty seedy. And I say that as someone who loves Atlantic City and actually got married there (on Ocean One!).

They are both such odd sodas to try and find... distributed by Pepsi or Coke depending on the area. They don't sell it at WDW as far as I know, so I'd try to pick up a few bottles at Publix if you have a car.

How's the penne alla vodka here? Have tried the chicken parm in the past and wasn't super impressed. But I'm from New York so I'm kind of snobbish about Italian food.

What are they gonna do, take my camera away? Give me a break. I'll continue to take pictures of my food when I want to. If a restaurant doesn't like that, I won't eat there again.

A big part of the problem is that the WOC viewing area is not tiered enough. If you're not right in the front of one of the tiers, you can't see anything. I'm a 4'11" adult and my view was basically of a lot of people's shoulders. We had gotten a picnic meal and Fastpass.

They should just bring back the Magic Kingdom Club and the Disney Magazine.

The wifi at Disneyland was pretty good, and it was fine for what I used it for (email, Facebook, IRC, Skype), so I'm hoping WDW's is similarly decent. Thanks for all your input!

So how's the in-room wifi? I haven't been to WDW since 2008, and even then that was the Dolphin so the internet situation was different. I know that at the WDW resorts there was an ethernet cable and you had to pay $10/day, so I was pleasantly surprised to hear that WDW now has free wifi like...

First and foremost, there's the music. Evolving through time from cassettes to CDs to iPod playlists. I like to start off with a modified playlist of the Official Album of Disneyland and Walt Disney World 1991. This includes MSEP, Pirates, Haunted Mansion, etc and I add in monorail spiels and...
