I'm split on this resort. I loved the deco, layout, etc. The larger than life icons were awesome, and my niece loved the dalmation & Toy story characters. The downside was that this resort was on the crowded side (although not very bad in October). Because of the popular character...

We love doing a countdown!! Because my son is older (now 16), we like to take nieces & nephews who are still young. It's so much more fun with kids who still believe in the "magic". (my 16 y/o is too "cool" for that). Anyway, we always do them up countdown calendars to mark off the days. I...

I TOTALLY agree with you on this!!!! On our trip in May, I saw more "" than I cared to see!!! I don't understand why some women want to show so much cleavage. And the worst of them were overweight and wearing clothes about 2 sizes too small. Now, I'm a woman, slightly overweight, and I...

Maybe my family's taste buds are off or we lucked up on a very good day, because we thought the food at T-Rex (chicken fried steak, lasagne, chicken & rib plate) were really good. Our waiter was quick and efficient and we never had to wait on anything. My idea about meals at WDW is you're...

On 3 previous trips we used the dining plan. We had no real issue at the time, because all the kids were 9 & under. However, before the plan was offered, we did have adults eat from the children's menu at Coral Reef. They are VERY picky eaters and would not eat anything from the adult menu...

I have 2 stories and they're both about my dad. In October 2002, as we were leaving AK (our first full day at WDW), my dad (62 at the time) got sick - feeling very weak and nauseated. We sat at an outdoor table for him to rest. I wanted to have a CM call for paramedics but he put up such a...

AMEN!! to that!!! ESPECIALLY when there are a thousand people behind them. Oh, and don't forget to STOP when someone is pushing a wheelchair behind you. It should be easy to stop 200 pounds of momentum.

We went the 2nd week of May, got to T-Rex at 5:00 and got right in with no wait. We loved it! You've got to order a Cotton-tini (mmmmmm) and the Chocolate Extinction. Wow.

Oh, Man, do I wish they'd reopen the one in Shreveport, LA. I used to work at that one, and we were ALL devastated when we had to close. There are NO Disney Stores close to us - the closest one was either Dallas or New Orleans/Baton Rouge. I miss my Disney Store!!!!

We've done this before, and plan on doing it again when we go back in May. I buy up small notebooks (journal size) and decorate the covers with various disney characters (Each child gets their own favorite character). Then on the inside cover or first page, I write a few details about the trip...

What kind of gifts did you get???

We LOVED T-Rex. We were there the 2nd week of May. No reservations. Walked up about 5:30 and got right in. We thought the food was really good. Dad & I split the chicken & ribs, sister had the lasagne, son had chicken fried steak. Sister had a cotton-tini. You gotta get one! We ALL SPLIT...

Your 2 year old might enjoy the antics on stage, with the laughing, singing, etc. I was worried my 15 year old wouldn't enjoy it when we went this past May. I was afraid he wouldn't get into it or think he was too "cool" for this kind of thing. HE HAD A BLAST!!! We heard "bear" jokes for...

It was chocolate cake, and in between the layers, was caramel, bits of butterfinger, and glazed with a chocolate sauce, and more bits of butterfinger, and I think it was drizzled with caramel. It was one of the best desserts I've ever had (and my mom runs a bakery - so I would know!!!) My dad...

I posted that pic of the Chocolate Extinction. I just saw that I forgot to change the year on the date. It was taken May of this year. It comes out on a square platter, with ice cream, alternating with the cake. It's enough to feed 4 people. I forgot how much it cost, but after the first...

T-Rex Cafe. This dessert was WONDERFUL!!! This is also one of our favorite restaurants now!!!

The date is NOT 1/1/07. I forgot to change the date on my new camera. It was actually taken May 12, 2009.

boat ride to Hoop Dee Doo.

We haven't seen celebs in the parks, but on our last trip in May, in the airport in Shreveport, LA, we met singer Aaron Neville. We were waiting for our plane for the flight to Orlando. Since we were on our way to WDW, I thought this might count!

I know I've written this before under another topic, but it's perfect here! We went for the first time to WDW when my son was 7. It was me, my son, my dad, and a sister. We started off the week with dinner at Chef Mickey's with a birthday cake for my son. Then we hopped on the monorail to...
