    Karamell-Kuche in Germany has some really good Caramel popcorn that will tide you over until meal time.

    Leaving in 3 hours :)

    Years a go you were allowed to swim in the lake but not anymore. I guess it has become too poluted.

    Favorite Rides That Aren't Rides

    My wife and I Love taking the Friendships boat ride from Hollywood Studios to Epcot. It's relaxing and there's almost always a nice cool breeze. It's also nice to just be able to sit for a while after all the walking we do.

    Incident at the Contemporary

    Not the first time this has happened. Years ago, while my wife and I were staying there, a Maid took her own life, jumping from a 10th floor outside stairwell. So sad

    Disney Spending

    For a week we bring $2000. That's for food, trinkets, doo-dads, and what nots. We also bring a credit card in case we run across any big ticket items we absolutely have to have.

    How balanced a view do you get when you do multiple visits?

    If you hear me complain about Disney prices going up, don't think for a moment that I don't Love the place. It's just that I'm pretty much on a fixed income and I'm reaching that threshhold where if it keeps up, I will no longer be able to afford to go to my favorite place in the world...and...

    Why is it so hard to get to the Magic Kingdom

    It's funny how magical it is taking the Monorail or Boat to the Magic Kingdom in the morning when you're full of energy and all excited, then how crowded and monotonous the trip is when you leave the park at night when everyone is all tired and sweaty and the kids are all grouchy. I have a thing...

    Testing a new truck prototype at Kilimanjaro Safaris

    While I get that people like the bumpy ride for the authenticity factor, I think that once people get their cameras out, they tend to focus less on the realism, and more on getting that "Good photo" of the animals so I don't think that this new less bumpy ride will upset many people.

    Where would you sleep if you had to spend the night in WDW without a room?

    I'd sleep in that jail cell with those guys in The Pirates of The Carribean, but only if it was shut down. That dog growling and that guy whistling would disrupt my magical Disney dreams.

    (If True) Good News for AK Fans/Animal Lovers in General

    Glad they are getting new Tigers. I was told by a castmember on my last trip that the ones they have are getting old and don't do much of anything but lay around except during early mornings and even then they are only running around for a very short time. Time for some younger generation Tigers...

    Will the Poly Construction Impact Monorail Operation?

    It's going to get worse...I have it on good authority that the Fountains in the Lobby of the Polynesian are coming out. While I'm sure Disney will make it look nice, I have always Loved those fountains. We have stayed at The Polynesian Resort at least 15 times and Love the look of the lobby...

    Theme park view at Contemporary

    My wife and I prefer the Bay Lake view when we are staying at the Contemporary Resort. In spite of what some of you are saying, the Park view IS mostly a parking lot view. While some of the MK park is in view, it's pretty far away. I do enjoy viewing the castle glowing after hours, but as far as...

    Walt Disney World theme park parking fees set to rise tomorrow

    I have never understood the concept of paying to park somewhere you're going to pay to get into and spend money while you're there. I don't have to pay to park at the grocery store...or my local Mall. But if I go to see a Chicago Bears Football game it costs me $35 to park my car there even...

    Loud Mouths In Public

    I've only had one incident involving loud people but this one ruined our experiance: My wife and I were getting ready to watch Wishes on our honeymoon trip when some guy got on his cell phone. Because the narration for Wishes is loud enough so all could hear, this made the man talk that much...

    Tornado Watch issued for the theme park areas until late tonight

    It's pretty sad when there are torrential downpours, winds so strong they're bending trees, all the water parks are closed, and there are tornado warnings all over the Central Florida area and i would STILL rather be in Disney World than where I am now in this cold winter weather here in the...

    getting sick from the food

    One never really knows what goes on behind the scenes at a Disney Restaurant, but I'm pretty sure there are strict regulations in regards to food preperation and handling. My wife and I both got stomach cramps after eating grilled shrimp at a Disney restaurant, but we agreed that it could have...
