    Citricos or Sanaa??

    We ate at Citricos last year. We were not impressed. Not much on the menu that appealed much to us. I guess we just don't have a gourmet pallet. We ate at Sannaa in 2010 and had good food, plus being able to see the animals outside. So that would be my vote.

    Disney Visa Credit Card Question

    I use the premium card and I put almost everything on the card and pay it off in full each month. I use it for all groceries, gas, going out to eat, etc. The way I see it is we buy groceries no matter what. We put gas in the vehicles no matter what. So if I have the money to pay those as I go...

    Which non-park restaraunt for breakfast?

    I forgot to ask earlier, but where did you hear that they will no longer offer the photo packages? That's a bummer if it is true, because I do enjoy buying the photo package. On our next trip, I am definitely planning on supper at Chef Mickey's and 1900 Park Fare, and I am strongly considering...

    Which non-park restaraunt for breakfast?

    Actually, I have not thought of that. We eat at the MK area resorts on every trip and have never had to pay for parking to get there, but we have been staying on property since 2007. Since we will be staying offsite this time, you may be right that we will have to pay for parking. I guess I...

    Which non-park restaraunt for breakfast?

    We always drive down, so transportation will not be a problem. :) Just to clarify, we are talking about a non-theme park day. Our trip is for May 24-June 3 2015, staying at an offsite condo. On June 3, all we are doing is loading up the van, checking out of the condo and hitting the road for...

    Which non-park restaraunt for breakfast?

    When I posted my poll question, I thought there was one I was forgetting and I think this is it. We have eaten both breakfast and supper there. We did both on our last trip and are currently planning to do supper there again on our next trip. One thought that I had was to do a new restaraunt...

    Which non-park restaraunt for breakfast?

    I tentatively have my restaraunts all picked for our next trip (May/June 2015), and we are staying offsite. However, the thought occured to me to add a breakfast on the day that we checkout and head home. We would be stopping for breakfast somewhere anyway, so rather than stop at an IHOP or...

    rates for 2015 release date?

    I called today and they said that they have room only rates available for 2015, but not package rates yet. She gave me an official price for my 10 day stay, for Port Orleans Riverside. I did not book it since I already have a condo booked for my dates, but I did make sure to ask her...

    rates for 2015 release date?

    You can already reserve your resort for next year, but you will just not have the final, locked in rate. Prior to deciding to stay offsite, I called in March and booked a room at All Star Movies for May 2015. Apparently, I was barely within the booking window, because the person on the phone...

    rates for 2015 release date?

    They used to do it promptly on the first Sunday of August. But the past couple years, it has been July, or even as early as June. I think it was June last year. We are currently planning on staying off property next year, but I am still eagerly awaiting 2015 rates just so I can get the final...

    How long do stores hold merchandise?

    Not sure if this is the right thread or not, since it pertains to shops, not necessarily a particular park although, of course, many shops are IN the parks. But if this is the wrong forum, I trust someone will move it to the correct forum. Anyway, on our previous trips on property, for our two...

    Why do you stay off site?

    By the way, just a disclaimer to my latest post a couple posts back...by no means was I trying to diss those in ECVs. I understand that some people are in poor health and need to use them, and I am thankful that I don't have to use one. So I was not trying to complain about those folks or be...

    Why do you stay off site?

    It depends, of course, on where you stay, as there are hundreds of options, from cheap motels to quality hotels, to rental houses and condos. We have baby #3 coming in another 6 weeks or sooner, and in order to save money and accomodate a family of 5, I reluctantly decided for off property on...

    Disney dining plan yes or no?

    The last time we used the dining plan was in 2011. On that trip, I made sure to write the dollar total on the back of the receipt, before it got zeroed out with the DP credits. I did this with our snacks, our counter service and table service meals. I wasn't feeling good for most of the trip...

    Do you have websites for those places?

    No WDW Trip This Year

    I'm in the same boat you are. After last year's trip, I was immediately thinking about this year's trip, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that we just can't save back enough throughout the year to be able to afford a trip PLUS save some money back for savings. We have two...

    " Cat Lady" at the Grand Floridian

    Since the theme of the resort is supposed to be a ritzy, Victorian era hotel, until I opened this thread and found out the facts, I speculated that perhaps she was hired by Disney to portray a character...that of an eccentric, rich lady that you might expect to find in such a hotel. Sounds like...

    Be Our Guest

    We ate there last year and had no trouble getting a reservation. However, I suspect that it was because we stayed 11 nights and I booked it for the 11th night. So in all likelihood, when I did my 180+10, there were few others who were also staying 11 nights and whose 11th night was going to be...
