    Purchasing Tickets at Resort

    I guess it depends on how badly she wants to ride TT and what time Epcot closes that night. I would think if she has tickets in hand she could almost head straight to the park and check in at the resort after riding TT. That's just an option. I don't know your specifics, driving, flying, etc...

    silhouette portraits

    Anyone have an idea on how long it takes...My mom has these for my sister and I and I would love to have them for my kids...but they don't like to sit still...I imagine it's quick, but if you have a better estimate than quick it would be helpful. Thanks!

    Best Supermarket near WDW

    I would avoid Goodings if at all possible. We went with a small list of things to get and they had very little of the things we needed including a pacifier for our daughter...lost it at security in the airport. We ended up at the Walmart that many people have mentioned. They will have...

    help needed! :)

    Love that idea...what a great friend you are. You could have them sign any sort of pretty paper (maybe in the colors of the wedding) and then cut them out and glue them on a matte...then pick any of a zillion great pictures of the castle (or other Disney icon) and get it printed to fill the...

    Disney Holiday Must-Sees?

    Just wanted to add that the Contemporary has a giant wreath on the glass wall closest to MK...it's of course a Mickey wreath and having your kids stand under it for a picture is pretty cool. The day we were there was very foggy so it almost looks like clouds are in the background...pretty...

    Best attractions after dark

    I know this sounds silly and it won't apply right now because it's closed, but I love riding Goofy's Barnstormer at night...it is fun during the day but at night you get quick glimpses of the castle and then you're quickly jerked in a different direction...plus the veggie garden is so cute.

    Smoking in the parks?

    Thanks for checking and not assuming that your folks can smoke anywhere. There are many spots and I've noticed they tend to be near water...like overlooking Tom Sawyer's Island or the water that runs through Animal Kingdom. We were walking behind a very rude man at animal kingdom the last...

    Christmas decor the week before Thanksgiving

    Just wanted to add that we stayed at POR over Thanksgiving 2 years ago. When we arrived on property our resort was not decorated and overnight (about midway into the trip) the entire lobby was transformed. It was in true POR style, very pretty and very southern. So, depending on where you are...

    What to believe about the shape of Disney Port Orleans Riverside

    loved riverside My family of 4 stayed the week of thanksgiving in 2009. We loved it. The CM are great. The grounds keepers ride around their carts handing out mardi gras bead, the doorman throws coins for the kids to chase around the lobby. I bought a stamp for a postcard and left it on the...

    April 29th Shuttle Launch

    I would suggest what someone else said and head for Daytona Beach. The path of the shuttle will take it right up the coast....there are going to be thousands of people there and getting to the launch will be difficult enough, but getting back to Orlando will be worse...We headed there (I work...

    What is the worst souvenir you've ever bought @ WDW?

    Man am I glad I haven't bought any of those things...ok, maybe I've been suckered into the night time light up stuff...mostly garbage of course but when you're waiting for the parade it's worth it! OK...so not the worst thing ever, but certainly a bad experience. Last Nov I bought a...

    I have a Bone to pick

    Wow...Step the heck off graphite1326! You're pretty rude. I did read the whole thread. I was providing my input. That's the point of a post right. I was also trying to help another parent when they asked about a stroller for their child.

    I have a Bone to pick

    We went last Thanksgiving and got the sit and stand for our almost 2 year old and a little over a 5 year old...it was fantastic...both can walk and are healthy, but think about how tired your feet are at the end of the day. Then consider that for every step you take they are taking at least...

    Watching a space shuttle launch from WDW

    If you have the chance to watch a launch I would certainly recommend it. There are currently only 2 remaining flights for the shuttle program. I will be in Mission Control in Houston for the final 2...which is awesome, but it means that I won't be at the Cape...From anywhere in the Orlando...
