    Things you don't get

    I'm in Lanoka Harbor. Wave to me too!:wave:

    Does anyone recommend Disney's travel insurance?

    I know you can purchase similar plans for less money through other agencies, but I bought through Disney for the convenience. With two kids, I purchased in case we had to cancel. However, I ended up using it when my son started to run a 103 fever while we were at Disney. The doctor came to see...

    Just so you know, no flash pictures on GMR.

    Why do people think they don't have to follow the rules? They are there for everyone.

    Soarn or Mission Space for 1st attraction at Epcot

    I would do Soarin' first. That standby line gets ridiculous and they often run our of fastpasses early. I only waited 5 minutes on the standby line for Mission Space.

    Pay for fastpass?

    Birnbaum's has publicly come out and said this was a misprint. I believe I heard this on the WDWToday podcast a while ago.

    Where Are the Characters?

    We saw Pluto at Chef Mickey's and also outside of Mission Space in Epcot.

    Those dang kids with those Heelez!!!

    The problem here is not with the shoes, but with the parents. My 8 year old has a pair, and we are very restrictive about where he can use them. He is allowed to use them in the house, but must remove the wheels when going up the stairs, and outside WITH A HELMET ON. Absolutely no wheels in...

    Is it to late to book for june?

    Not always true. I booked the same flights that Disney was offering when I went in November 2005, but I paid at least $100 less for 4 people. I bought my tickets through Orbitz.com.

    Staying at AKL - crazy to visit Sea World?

    We took a day to visit Sea World on our 7 day trip. I had bought our tickets ahead of time, or else I don't think I would have gone. We lost about a half day of touring when my DS got sick on Wednesday, and missed a lot of Epcot:cry: . Went to Sea World Thursday, and flew home early Friday...

    Best week in october/november 2006

    I like the first week of November. We went November 2005 and the weather was phenomenal. We had no rain, temps around 80 during the day, and crowd levels were low. I think we used fastpass twice, and our rule was to fastpass anything with a wait over 20 minutes.:) The parks were generally open...

    DME Who knows?

    Wow, I got my tags less than two weeks before my trip. As a matter of fact, I called to check that they had not forgotten about me. I think that unless they can be more consistent and send the tags out earlier, they should be willing to send them to multiple locations. I mean, we can all play...

    I need help fast with this one. Another Dining question

    I would definitely do some of the other sit down meals as opposed to all character meals. While fun, the buffets tend to get monotonous after a while. One of the best meals we had last trip was at the Kona Cafe in the Polynesian. And they have some of the best coffee too!

    Line Cutting

    That is the difference. You asked if they minded. You cared if you were offending them. I don't think I would ever say no to someone that asked me, but I feel so insulted and offended when they just push their way in front of me. :( It promotes the "I am better than you and don't have to wait"...

    Line Cutting

    Who can blame you? This is the sort of thing that makes so many of us blow a gasket. It is the "I am more special than you so I don't have to follow the rules" attitude that makes me boil over. Even in a magical place like Disney. The one or two people who need to catch up after a potty...

    Line Cutting

    Agreed. I have a much tougher time dealing with it in the 'real world' though. I guess when not surrounded by happiness, it is harder to brush off. And I do think the CMs at WDW do a much better job of controlling lines than the other theme parks do.

    Line Cutting

    Not really, there is suppose to be some humor implied there. :lol: I would never let anything so petty wreck my vacation. I guess that the point is Disney feels so magical, most of us don't even notice these slight annoyances.:o I was just happy to be considered "polite" by this thread!

    Line Cutting

    This is so sad. At first I thought "What is the big deal if someone leaves to go to the bathroom and comes back? You all need to lighten up a little." Then I thought about my last trip to Disney, and flashback to waiting in front of Flame Tree Barbecue with my kids for my DH to come out of...

    Comments on first night and ADR's-March 29

    The Coral Reef is overpriced, but we decided to go there for lunch instead of dinner. The prices were much more reasonable. We had great seats and my kids loved the aquarium. I would do it again, and also do lunch instead of dinner again.

    Caribbean Beach Resort Buses?

    We stayed at CBR in November. We stayed in Aruba near the beach and bridge. We did not have a problem with the buses. The order of stops is dependent on which park you go to. They do this so they can split the buses between the two entrances and alleviate the bus traffic a little. An...

    Underated?

    I really enjoyed that ride. I thought it was actually better than the Backlot Tour, which I was very disappointed with. I understand some things have been removed from the Backlot Tour, and maybe that is why it seemed overrated to me.
