    Only 8 more weeks!

    Well, I hear you. Here in Quebec, Canada, the day you are describing is like any other winter day. Except for this year. We have had almost no snow so far!! You guys are getting all our snow and people are actually complaining up here that we have no snow to play in!! Of course, we have...

    Remy from Ratatouille at Les Chefs de France??

    Hi everyone, My husband just stumbled upon a video from the Disney World web site showing appearances from Remy of Ratatouille at Les Chefs de France in Epcot. Has anyone seen him? They say he comes out 4 times a day, 6 days a week. We are definitely booking dinner there after seeing this...

    Park Hours

    Hmmm... that's weird, if you go to each individual park's calendar your get the month of August, but if you go to the Park Hours menu, then you get until July... Thanks for the information, I was anxious to plan my August trip too!

    Dining Plan worth the $$$ ???

    I took out the old calculator last night and came to the conclusion that for my family of 4, the dining plan was worth it. I used allears.net menus and prices, and was very realistic about it (for example, I always drink water, so I didn't calculate any drinks for myself). For us, with all the...

    Free Dining Plan?

    It also depends on the number of people on the dining plan. We will be 5, so it's a savings of over 1700$ (3 adults/2 kids for 11 nights). Since we will be staying at a moderate resort, the discount currently offered on the room is only a 600$ savings... so in our case we would really rather...

    Free Dining Plan?

    I was asking myself the exact same question a week or two ago. Then I learned the free dining had already been offered for those dates. What I did is I booked with the current discounts (kids stay and play free or room discounts) that are offered until March 27, just to make sure, and if ever...

    ADR and Free Dining

    Thanks for that, I am still hoping something better comes up. At least our package is booked so we'll have some sort of discount. 197 days to go....

    Stoller advice...

    I am looking into buying a Joovy Caboose double stroller (sit n stand type). I cannot find the Ultralite version up here in Canada, but would like to know if anyone has ever tried it (either regular or Ultralite). I have one 7 yo and one 3 yo. (I plan to sell it right after the trip)...

    Attraction height and age restrictions

    My then 5yo's first ride on our last trip was Dinosaur and it scared the bejeesus out of him and he was scared of everything else for the rest of the trip. He will be 7 this time around and I hope he will be braver than last time!!

    Gadgets and Gizmos...what things to bring??

    I agree with slappy magoo. We have a portable DVD player for the car, but it is always put away in the house unless we are going to grandma's which is a 2.5 hour drive or grandpa's which is 1.5 hours away. Otherwise, it's at home. It's always been that way so the kids don't even think about...

    Gadgets and Gizmos...what things to bring??

    I strongly suggest bringing walkie-talkies (radios) so you can communicate with your DH when you have to seperate. We had those on our 2009 trip and it saved the day more than once. For the drive my 7yo had his Nintendo DS, so he was busy and we didn't hear a peep from him (all the way from...

    ADR - Online or over the phone?

    I think I will do the same... I might be late for work that morning though! I am also waiting for the August calendar to be released before I can decide when & where we will be booking. I wish they would have them earlier so we could have more time to plan ahead!

    Booking 2 packages?

    Hmmm... maybe my question wasn't clear, as no one is responding... I am wondering if I can book 2 rooms at 2 different hotels for the same nights. 1 for Pop Century for 4 people and another at POR for 5 people, all for the same dates. When my mother decides whether or not she is coming, I...

    ADR - Online or over the phone?

    Hi! I was wondering which is more efficient for booking ADRs? I want to book 180 + 10 days in advance and make sure I get nice places at reasonable hours. Should I call and speak to someone or should I try my luck online? Thank you!!

    Choice between All-Star Music or Pop Century

    Thanks that was really helpful! Is the 50's building a standard room I can request or do I have to pay for preferred room or something like that? That would be awesome!

    Choice between All-Star Music or Pop Century

    Hi, Just wanted your opinion... if you had the choice between All-Star Music or Pop Century for a 11-night stay in August, which would you choose and why? We have two boys aged 3 and 7. Thanks!!

    Booking 2 packages?

    Hi, I'm wondering if it's a good idea to book two packages: one at a value resort in case my mother doesn't come with us (she's not sure yet) and one at a moderate resort where we can be 5 per room in case she does decide to come (POR). I really want to take advantage of the current deals...

    ADR and Free Dining

    Well, I just called Disney's reservation number with a few questions, and the agent told me that there are very little chances that the free dining plans will be offered again for August 2011. I'm very disappointed, I calculated every option, and with the room discounts and the kids play free...

    ADR and Free Dining

    Thanks for the information. I assumed it would be 8/15 because the Kids Stay and Play Free deal starts on 8/15 if I'm not mistaking. If that's the case, maybe I will be able to get the free kids' deal for part of my trip and free dining for the remaining part (if they do have FD again)? I would...
