Thank you everyone. Going to see Mom in Arizona and we can discuss the dates. As her sister's party in the 17th, I am thinking, based on the advice here, that before the party would be best to go rather than after.

After 30 trips to WDW in the past 15 years, I am contemplating a trip around May 12th. I have always gone during Christmas or in summer, and once right after Labor Day which was great. I have not been since September 2011 (which blows my mind that it has been that long), and am looking at the...

There was a parade somewhere in the commercial? I must have missed it.

I have never used a debit card. There is no protection and my daughter had a bad experience with one once where she booked a hotel with the card, got there early afternoon and saw what was going on (biker week in Myrtle beach), never even saw the room, wanted to cancel, they refused and the...

I used to have an AP, live in Michigan, went 3 or 4 times a year. No more. In fact, I have not been since September of 2011. I love WDW and have been over 27 times since 2000 and September 2011, not to mention my visits before that time frame, but my upcoming vacation is coming up to London...

The letters from TOT were removed in 2006. I found this: http://www.studioscentral.com/column/why-its-there/evil-tower-u-r-doomed

So may have been mentioned already. The Well in ToonTown that talked to you...now gone. Loved the U R doomed in TOT. Free chocolate at Ghiridelli in DTD. Kiss Goodnight at MK which has been mentioned. Moving tree/bush at AK, If you bend down and look at the drinking fountain behind Cindy's...

HauntedPirate....that was our spot too. We were not happy either. As for FP+ for character greetings, I am glad I don't have little kids anymore so I don't have to explain to them why they can't go see a character who is out in plain view when other kids get to do so.

Been there many, many times during thunderstorms. As has been said, the outdoor rides will shut down if lightening or severe weather until the storm passes. But if the que is undercover, I have waited and not lost my spot. Most storms are fast and breeze through pretty quickly. If it is a...

We were there during a non-busy time in September two years ago and just walked in and were seated right away. NO reservation was needed. Food was good and loved the theming.

Walking doesn't bother me at all. Moving is easy. It is the standing in line that drives my legs and feet crazy.

I have about $650 now plus some gift cards, still holding out. When I used to have AP's, one time we had enough disney visa dollars to pay for the hotel, I used frequent flyer miles to fly, and I had the AP's for that trip, so it didn't cost anything but food. I never factor in food to the...

We had to cancel a trip on 2006. My mom called and said my dad, who had been ill, was not good and it was just a matter of days so I called and cancelled. We had a room only reservation and we got a 100% refund of our deposit. Airlines of course gave us a voucher to use within a year. Well...

$95 a day to spend an entire day at a park gives me a lot more bang for my buck than spending more than that to go see a 3 hour play, or a hockey game, or a concert. Just putting it into perspective. And if you stay longer than a day, say 5 days, it amortizes out to less than $95 a day. And...

My first trip was to Disneyland in 1956 when I was 3. My first trip to Walt Disney world was in 1975 when I was a little older.

As a family, we went to DL several times until my husband passed away in 1998. In 2000 I took my daughter to WDW for the first time (I had been there before). It became our together vacation several times a year, sometimes more than that, because it is a place that offers so much for a mother...

We used to always go for NYE and we went to DHS for several reasons. It isn't as crowded as Epcot or MK, and there is a lot to do which is why perhaps is not as crowded. People are spread out doing attractions, eating at the numerous table service restaurants, watching the band on the stage...

As far as frames, whenever I have a picture that is a weird non-standard frame, I get those clear glass ones that you don't need to have the right size, just buy the frame bigger than your picture. I am not sure what they are called but you just put the pic between the two pieces of glass in...

And this is why we stopped going to WDW the week of Christmas and between New Years in 2007. As far as the monorail from MK, we stay till the park closes, then to avoid the insane crowds trying to get on the monorail, we take our time, get an ice cream, sit down, wander through shops, then when...

I went to Target and got the 10% discount. Paid with cash. :greedy:
