Wow - sorry I missed the first post. Glad you made it safely to Disney after that rough start! I am heading to the airport Friday and now have this in the back of my head!! From what I remember from my father (police officer) and my driver's safety courses, anytime a person hits you in the...

Winnie is not an animal in my mind...so I guess it has to be Donald!!

I did some quick research for you.... have you considered a DVC rental through one of the time share sites? I looked at you taking a suite at Art of Animation and came up with a cost of $5300 for the suite for your travel dates.... I looked at what a one and two bedroom suite at Old Key...

I don't envy what you have to go through on a daily basis, and I know at times it can be overwhelming to have to deal with the reality of your illness every day.... Three things struck me in your post. The first thing that caught my attention is when you stated that some people here stated...

The only flaw I see here is why wouldn't EVERYONE then say they want a DAS? I could theoretically say, "I need a DAS due to my broken leg and can't stand or walk..." Disney then allows the MDE the extra FP and before you can say Yowza, everyone is claiming a disability and we are back where we...

While I understand the need for the fences....I hate the aesthetics. Would much prefer a sniper on top of the building with a tranquilizer gun to deal with the interlopers. Once the intruders are out cold, security could release them back to the wild of thier rooms and tuck them in nicely...

[was going to quote a previous post, but think it would be too flammable....] I don't think that this can be blamed on Guest Relations. How are these people supposed to determine if someone 'looks' handicapped or not? I have taken trips on three occasions where we used a GAC - and I would...

I don't remember much from my first trip to MK....must have been in mid 70s. My brother and I travelled to visit my great-grandmother who lived in Bradenton. I know we drove up to Orlando and went to MK. The only thing I recall were the old ticket booklets. Must have asked my brother over a...

With many people saying Disney should require 'proof' someone has an illness/disability/etc, there can be issues there also. In the newspapers here in NY over the past few years are stories of doctors who write prescriptions for oxycodone and other pain killers without ever seeing the patient...

I know there have been a few posters on the thread who have lamented the changes, so I would like to nicely pose this question: In light of the known abuses of the GAC program, how would you revise the program to minimize abuses of the cards while providing for the families that you are...

To me, as my plane starts its descent, and more and more landscaping can be seen, gets me ready to rip off my seatbelt and run down to the door and wait to be off the plane and into the terminal.....

Just one? Tough.... But if I was told this would be my last ride at Disney, I guess I would choose Splash Mountain. Thought about Soarin', but Splash is longer, so I want the good times to last as long as possible.....

This thread, like the GAC one before it, will devolve into a back and forth over who deserves what. Here's the bottom line: Some people want Disney to be everything they need to 'ensure that they have a perfect family vacation' which may include never having to wait on line over 30 seconds...

I bought my tickets yesterday for the 27th. Getting excited for the trip - and the party. Reading about what all the posters have said makes me even more excited. Can't wait!!!!

You cant beat the studios at OKW - yes, the travel can sometimes be a bit tedious, but the rooms are fantastic. I would not hesitate to go back there again if it were available....

They are fantastic - they play out summer concert series on Long Island on the library lawn every summer.... gets the biggest crowds of all the concerts we put on....

I can totally sympathize. I used to go to WDW twice a year - once in Feb and once in August before the start of school...then all get out happened and I find myself unemployed and scraping by. So in the past four years I have gone twice rather than my accustomed eight times.... The first time...

Having only stayed at AKL once, I don't have a wealth of experience, but I have to say, I loved my visit.... I am DVC, so maybe what I have to say isn't totally relevent.... I did stay in a studio, so it was going to be a smaller room.... I am forever kicking my oversized feet into things at...

Britt - is this a 'corporate' Starbucks where you can use the gift cards or one of the Starbucks you might find at rest stops along a highway where a lot of times they do not honor the gift cards?? Anyone know?

Two weeks from today, my eyes will awaken from slumber and I will be in Disney! In many ways, I can't believe it. I don't try to get too excited, but I am getting pretty excited at times. This trip is different in many ways, and one of them is that for the first time in my 'dreaming about...
