    Walls up at McDonalds

    To us, because everything tastes better when you are on vacation, even "micky-d's". 1 year we got hooked on their sweet-tea. And of course the KEWL sound the soda fountain makes when you get your drinks. ;) And as said by many, it was just convenient to grab a snack - least it was while...

    Walls up at McDonalds

    YUP, wife and I will miss it too. Always started our vaca there and ended it there. We never found fault with it in the years we visited DTD and made it a place to grab a quick bit. About 5 years ago we purchased 2 pins from them that they had in their display case inside the place. Now we...

    Changes to dining plan for 2011

    Agreed, you can definitely save money if you eat smarter than using the DP. We did it 2 ways to check what works best for us. Once in Dec08' we visited for 6nights/7days and got the DP for 2 - was given for free per a code. We have no kids and though why not try it. Also we did not have a...

    Giving away your fast passes

    Many times my wife and I have received FP’s from folks who were leaving the park. Just minding our own business walking up main street and a guy or lady grabs us by the arm and says, “Hey do you want these – we are leaving and can’t use them.” We are always thankful for the gesture and have...

    Logical alternatives to the bus system as it is now.

    I find no issue with the busses. Sometimes we use them and sometimes we just drive the rental. Just depends on our day and how early we decide to hit the parks or stay for the day or hop. Why do we forget that outside forces cannot be controlled? Even if Disney had underground bus GPS...

    What's the funniest thing that happened to you at DW

    Hmmm… We don’t have kids – I’m the kid in our family per my wife. BUT we enjoy watching folks at the parks and at the food courts both on/off property. It’s always fun to start the day with a nice breakfast at a place and hear other family’s interacting and planning their day. OR having...

    So which one did you get? I wish the red 2007 Mickey tag was not dated. I may get that one but would reall like it more if the year was not on it - for date purposes. Thanks for the info and the positive feedback on the vendor.

    Give A Day Get A Day...

    Nope, didn't do it and had no plans to... Just wondering why the campaign ended as quickly as it did. Figured there must have been something else offered to participants. I've not seen a lot of TV commercials for the GADGAD campaign. Thanks for the info and congrats to the folks who...

    Give A Day Get A Day...

    I know this campaign is over. If you had already booked a trip and had paid for length of stay hopper passes...you don't need the free admitance ticket. So did they offer anything else in place of the free ticket? Say fast passes or some other thing for your effort? Just wondering...

    How do you slow down your WDW visit?

    DofD, You are right. We did 1 week stays for our WDW vaca all the time. Then on our 10th anniversary my wife and I decided to do "10 Days for 10 Years" as our own celebration. After that we've never looked back. 10 days is ideal in our opinions. You can slow your roll for sure. See...

    How do you slow down your WDW visit?

    Where is Fuego (cigar/bar located Downtown)? I know of the cigar shop near the house of blues by quest...starts with an "S" - can't remember the name – Soba? I always pack my travel humidor for the WDW trip. Nothing like sitting out in the designated areas on property and enjoying a nice...

    Joe Rohde Meeting

    Very kewl that you got to meet Mr. Joe Rohde. I've never met anyone from Disney while on vacation at the parks. It would be super kewl though. My wife and I watch any show on Travel or History that is Disney related. Seeing that you noticed him in the park and got a neat pic with Mr...

    TV Tonight: Cake Boss Goes to Disney

    We just watched it last night on DVR. I found the episode to be very entertaining. He can create a cake that's for sure! Wife and I laughed at his "dis-a-ney" vocab. FUNNY! AND did you notice when the Disney Chef had to come in to unlock the cage they made a comment about hack-sawing the...

    Downtown Disney changes

    Guess we will have to try the fried plantains. Never had them. Hopefully they will be open in May2K10 when we go back home. Guess the tour is filled with facts surrounded with a bit of story. Still entertaining though... Thanks for the info, much appreciated!

    Downtown Disney changes

    So what happened? Why are the Mc'ds being removed? Can you provide a link to another thread where this is being discussed? My wife and I always enjoyed visiting DTD for our fry fix...and cheeseburger fix too. And we noted in the MK that the french fry wagon is gone too per our last 2...

    Well I appreciate all the input. Makes a little sense why they discontinued them. I’ll have to look at the site provided in this thread. THANKS! More importantly we won’t go running all over property looking for them! Can’t say how many times we missed out on an item we saw on our first...
