    Digital Camera/ No Laptop???

    I brought a 1gb memory card and 512 as back up for a week. I was able to store some 600+ pics plus a couple videos before needing to use my back up...I only used my back up card for 10 pics or so.

    Need your opinions on my situation please!

    Have you considered looking into of the DVC deluxe resorts? You can book a room at Saratoga Springs or Old key West for a fair price, just like any other resort. They do have one bedroom suites that include a hide-a-away bed, plus you would have the convenience of a full kitchen. I know you'll...

    Two Questions re 2009

    You can also check the disboards.com to rent points as well. A little more security to check out the DVC member. $600 is pretty good. I am staying at OKW in Jan 2009 thru a friend that is a DVC member there. She actually lets points go to waste, I told never to waste those points...call me!

    Hotel Without a Credit Card?

    Apply for overdraft protection. Most banks can do a line, credit card, and/or savings. (be careful with savings, though. Reg D only allows 6 withdrawals per month.) If you have a HELOC, you should also be able to link that to your DDA as ODP. Also...never ever go by an ATM balance or online...

    Hotel Without a Credit Card?

    You will still need a credit card at check in. I did in Dec 2007. I did not want anything on credit card, so I was able to use my debit card w. the Visa logo. (I stayed POFQ) You can arrange so no charges go on your card. It's mostly a liability issue bc there is always the possiblity for room...

    Sunscreen question

    Keep in mind that the highest SPF is 30, offering the highest protection. The way is the FDA approves it at a liberal 1/8 of an inch thick. No one really applies the sunscreen as thick as it is tested. 30 is the max and lasts about 50-60 minutes. Any higher SPF just means that the SPF...

    How do you keep a trip a secret?

    VERY TRUE! I kept it a secret up until I picked up my upset daughter from school and her teacher calmed her down by telling her not to worry about the snow the next day b/c she was going to Florida that evening! Her plane would land and it be warm outside! My daughter associates one thing with...

    What is the best advice you can give to others who are about to go to WDW?

    Ditto the walking preparedness and comfy shoes. Plan to an extent. Disney has alot to enjoy outside of the parks too. Even if you do not stay at a monorail resort, jump on and enjoy the scenery it offers. Do at least one character meal. Buy at least one souvinear that you can enjoy in your home...

    Disney without a car!

    Last December we rented a car. I appreciated having the added convenience when using the dining at the various resorts and nights I knew we would be out late. I would do it again. But that's just me. Of course there are downsides, lugging the luggage around the airport while trying to pick up...

She just squared a picture of herself and included her name, department, and a fake employee number then laminated it and attached it to a retractable clip thing she...
