    Polynesian Lobby Smell

    This thread explains a lot. I was there two weeks ago, and when I walked into the GCH, I was totally thrown. After years of that smell, it jarred me when it was gone. I loved that smell too and I'm so bummed now that it's gone. I can't really explain how it smelled with the new air...

    Life’s A Beach, And Then You Run: A 2012 Marathon Weekend Trip Report!

    So, I'm going to admit, I'm totally stalking your TR waiting for updates! Good for you, not only running the ENTIRE marathon (which is a huge accomplishment), but also doing it without your biggest supporter. What a bummer that DH couldn't be there, but it's good that he's getting better...

    Where's Blackbeard?

    When we rode on the 10th, the waterfall and projection were working. However, on the 12th and everyday thereafter, no waterfall. Bummer. :cry:

    DME and arriving at night

    Thanks for the responses!! I think we will end up hauling our luggage ourselves. I get cranky if my sleep is disturbed (yes, even in the most magical place on Earth) and who knows if we'll have the patience to wait for bell services to bring them up in the morning. Plus, we're girls with lots...

    DME and arriving at night

    Happy New Year everyone! So, my next trip begins in exactly 7 days! :sohappy: We are flying out on the 9th at 6pm, which puts us at MCO at approximately 8:30 pm. Should we just pick up our own luggage instead of waiting for DME to deliver to the resort? Since we're arriving at night, do they...

    January themes??

    I really enjoy going in January. Even though there aren't any special decorations or events around, the crowds can't be beat. Last trip, the only line we stood in was for TSMM (of course, but even then, only about 20 minutes) and once on BTMRR. Everything else was walk on. It's a great time...

    Places for young people to go out?

    I was concerned about the same issue before my last trip. Unfortunately, we were so exhausted at the end of each day, we never really got to experience much in the way of nightlife! We stayed at CSR and Rix Lounge looked pretty cool. Very dark with mood lighting - basically lounge-ish. We...

    Planning Burnout!

    I plan ADRs around what park I'm planning on being in. Definitely take advantage of EMHs!!! The parks are less crowded since only resort guests are allowed in, which makes it easier to hit some of the more popular attractions. What I do is plan out what parks to go to on particular days based...

    To Infinity and Beyond: A May 2011 Pixar Weekend Trip Report

    I'm exhausted!! You guys accomplished so much in one day! I'm extremely impressed. I'm so glad your Star Tours stalking paid off. And I'm even gladder(?) to know that you get the same headache that I do after simulators, and you braved it anyway! Everyone's had such good things to say...

    Are you twins?! - August, family, and magical memories.

    LOL!!:ROFLOL: Your mom totally sassed you! Loving your TR! Isn't it fun when you get to embarass your parents? I mean, it's only fair since growing up, parents could NOT be more embarassing. On one trip, I insisted on walking backwards from the TTC monorail to our room at the Poly. I was...

    Best / Worst Park to go to on a Rainy Day

    I agree that obviously, AK doesn't have as many attractions to hide from the rain in. However, on the last trip, we went to AK on a misty/showery rainy day and it was awesome! It wasn't a drenching kind of rain and it was off and on, but it made you feel as if you were in an actual rainforest...

    How do you do it?!???

    Ditto. This is what I do: I book far enough in advance so that I can make monthly payments that are affordable. As long as my regular bills are being paid on time, then I don't see what the problem is. If I waited until all my student loans were paid off, I wouldn't be going on vacation...

    Pop Century, Pachyderms and a Proposal - May 2011 Trip Report

    Oh, how I love the caramel store... My friend generously donated one of her snack credits to me on our last trip because I couldn't decide on what to get in here. The chocolate covered caramel squares were GLORIOUS!! You guys were so lucky, only waiting 20 mins for TSMM!! I'm so enjoying...
