    I got a flier in the mail for the 40%. I booked POP November 9-15 for two adults and I child for $400.00 including tax! We were not going to go this year, but at that price how can you not!! This has to be pretty random and not necessarily how many times you've been, when you were last there...

    Disney promotions?

    We got that same 40% off mailer too. I booked POP for two adults and 1 child for November for $400.00 for the week including tax. Apparently this is pretty random. My sister got one, but my parents didn't. We were all there together in October 2007.

    Need help with November trip.

    For all of those who visited this past November, here is my question(s)... By way of background...the other day I went to the mailbox and found a wonderful surprise. I had received a discount code for 40% off each night stay and it gave several times during the year this discount was...

    Hooooray!!

    It was actually a mailer from Disney. It had dates listed on it for several different times of the year that the special was available. On the outside it had a code on it that I had to give to the castmember when booking. I don't know how they determine who to send the discount mailers to. I...

    Hooooray!!

    I knew that week was Pop Warner week. We are dead set on going at Christmas and there weren't very many dates listed for December. We were at ASMovies in 2006 during Pop Warner week and other than the busses being a little more full, we really weren't bothered by it. Most of them stay at All...

    I just went to the mailbox and lo and behold was a coupon for a 40% discount on a room reservation. I couldn't believe it!!! Needless to say, I got right on the phone and booked Pop Century for December 7-14 for all four of us (Myself, DH, DD(6) and DS(3)) for $387.00!!!:sohappy: Disney here...

    Ideas??

    Guatemama, that's so fun!!! We are leaving in one week and we're flying out of Charlotte with our 4 year old daughter and 2 year old son. I plan on packing while she is at school this week and loading everything after they go to bed Friday night. My sister lives in Charlotte so we're just...

    Characters to Meet

    Pick up a Times Guide first thing as soon as you get to the parks. It lists which characters will be out at what times and where. If there is a specific character you just have to meet, you can go to Guest Relations at the park and ask where you might meet that particular character. I've...

    Your favorite comfy winter shoes?

    We were at WDW last December and the weather went from pretty warm to darn right cold and windy by the end of the week. During the cooler days and at night, I lived in my Dansko clogs. I have 4 or 5 pairs of these and I wear them all as soon as it starts getting chilly up until it gets warm...

    Minor Resort Questions

    POR does have hairdryers...the kind that is attached to the wall. Also, they do have bedrails. We always use them especially if we get a room in the "mansions" section of POR. The beds are somewhat higher off the ground than a regular bed. Just request them when you check in. We did this...

    what age for Haunted Mansion?

    Like other have said, every kid is different. Mine have been riding since the age of 2. You know your kids best. If it were me, I would hate to skip it. It's one of my favorites too. I say, take them on it. You may be pleasantly surprised. Just tell them to hide their head in your lap if...

    December crowds?

    We were there December 3-9 last year and loved it. However, that is about the time Pop Warner is there. If you're not staying at a Value, especially Sports, you probably won't even notice. The crowds were very manageable. I believe I only used two FastPasses the entire trip (Soarin' and...

    October discounts?

    According to the Disney website, at least for the week of October 13-20, Port Orleans Riverside, Port Orleans French Quarter and Animal Kingdom Lodge are available. I didn't check any of the others though.

    HELP! 5 Hour Flight! Need Book Suggestions!

    Anything by Nicholas Sparks...that is if you don't mind sappy. Bring a package of tissues. If you're not familiar with him, he wrote the books Message in a Bottle, The Notebook and A Walk to Remember which have all been made into motion pictures. You can't go wrong with any of his books...

    soarin.....is it for scaredy cats..?

    I second all of those who have said that they are afraid of heights but love this ride. A little advice though, don't let the "warning" signs posted throughout the line freak you out. I HATE heights, roller coasters, etc. but I did want to do this ride. All the while we were waiting I kept...

    Any advice re: flying with a 2 year old?

    Thank ya'll for all of the advice. I did think about a portable DVD player last night. That would probably do the trick. On a different note, a saw a product on a website called onestepahead.com called ear planes. They were these ear plug type things that helped equalize the pressure in...

    Any advice re: flying with a 2 year old?

    He will actually be 22 months old, so we didn't need a ticket for him.

    Any advice re: flying with a 2 year old?

    We leave in 47 days!!!:sohappy: Can't wait!!! We just decided to go ahead and fly since the amount of money we would spend vs. our airfare would pretty much be a wash. We will be flying out of Charlotte nonstop so the flight will only be about 1 1/2 hours. It will be me, DH, DD(4) and DS(2)...

    Should I rent a second stroller?

    I agree with what the others have said. There's no way I'd be lugging two strollers on and off those busses, especially at park close when the busses can get to standing room only. Take the single for the baby and rent a double for your length of stay. I believe it you do it at all once the...
