I always go to and buy a pack of brightly colored washcloths ( the kind that's like a pack of 12 for $4 ) and after washing, take at least one for every family member going on the trip. Before heading into the parks for the day, I put a couple ( dry ) rolled up in a ziplock bag ( preferebly a...

Going in August for two days before we transfer over to POFQ. Taking Grandma who has trouble walking ( injuries from an accident years ago that has left her in terrible pain - qualifies medically for an ECV, but won't use one "as long as she can still stand upright"), suggestions for which bldg...

I SO understand what you're saying and how you're feeling. It seems like it was just a short, short time ago that I stood with my daughther on a sunny September afternoon and watched my DGD walk into her school to begin her kindergarden year. Now she's finishing up her 2nd grade year in a few...

My family now won't stay anywhere else! We were going stay at the Wilderness Lodge on our next visit ( I wanted to be really close to the MK), but they nixed the idea. It's usually a very quiet and laid back atmosphere. Really nice after being in a hot, crowded park all day long. The CM's...

Lots of good ideas here. Some of them we use as well. I do have a question for those who have bought the Disney gift cards at their local stores as a way to put money away...I have always worried that I'd buy a bunch of them, and for some reason, when I got there, the gift cards wouldn't have...

Arriving (late) Aug 15 and leaving (early) Aug 21st. Staying at POFQ Travelling with DD, DH, DGD and self (SIL can't come this year) The best part is that both DH and DGD don't have a clue we're going!! We had decided not to go this year, and instead take a driving trip to Tennessee (home), then...

Even though I do always have a travel pack of Wet Ones with me, I also like to take a couple of brightly colored ( so as not to be confused with the ones in the hotel) washcloths and a few extra zip lock plastic bags with me. I always take a washcloth inside a zip lock bag into the parks with...

POFQ does have roll-aways. We had one last October when we were there. We only had four people in our room, but we wanted an extra bed, so once we checked in, I called and they delivered it within about half an hour of the call. There is a charge for it ( nightly ) of $15

Of course you may wear costumes as adults. I think there's almost as many adults wearing costumes as children. You have paid that extra money for a Halloween party and you should expect to go and enjoy just like anyone!! Pick up a park map when you get inside and study it carefully, it does...

I'm glad this thread was started. We're leaving in five weeks and always purchase the CD, but usually we just buy it there at the end of our trip, and of course, do not receive a discount. I like the CD/photo book option as well. We've done the book through Disney photopass twice ( as well as...

I had used a local travel agent when we had taken a trip back in 1992. ( Back when there were many such agencies locally ). When my daughter was married in 2000 and her (then) fiance booked their honeymoon trip, he also used a local travel agent. Both of our experiences were positive. When...

We've discussed trying a Value to save money and maybe be able to take a second trip a year, but just can't get away from staying at POFQ The resort isn't that large (by other standards ). And, you are always the first on busses. I don't know how they decide it, but sometimes the busses do go...

Thanks so much for sharing these beautiful photos! It is especially appreciated by those of us that cannot be there during this time of year. I have to wonder if those flowers, plants and topiaries are shivering in the unusual cold that is being experienced right now? It's a strange thing to...

What a difference a week makes..to think, I was there at this exact time last week at the MNSSHP standing in line waiting for a Snow White/Seven Dwarfs photo op............sigh...................... Would love to see it at Christmas time!! Maybe someday................

Since I worked in the photo industry for almost 20 years, I am very, very picky about the quality of my photos. I used to work for Ritz camera and have worked in all phases of developing/processing way back to the days of having to actually know color theory into the digitial age. Now that most...

As others have said here, absolutely, either pursue this yourself BEFORE you arrive or see if a good travel agent can help you..as mentioned here also, someone who specializes in Disney. I cannot believe that there is nothing that can be done, especially since you have yet to arrive. That's...

We're there Oct 25th-Nov 1st. Hubby, Daughter, 6 yr old grandaughter and myself. Will celebrate our 36th anniversary ( anniversary is actually on Nov 3rd). POFQ third year in a row ( love it!) MNSSHP on the Halloween!!!

We were there during that period last year and the temps were pretty hot and the humidity was almost unbearable for the first four days or so. I guess we just got used to it after awhile ( I was raised in the South, but have been away for so long that I'd forgotten what real humidity was like)...

Bless you and your family. My supervisor's daughter has this disease and now they have found that probably their son has it as well. Taking the idea of the business card one step further...I am sure there are places for research for this disease that need funding. If you know of such a...

We were at POFQ last October, and the cashier in the food court told me that if we were planning on visiting other Disney resorts, to make sure and take our mugs with us because we could now get free refills at the on property resorts. I had read much ( on another discussion board ) about using...
