    Finally Leaving !!

    In exactly 12 hours and 7 minutes I will finally be on my way to WDW. I cannot imagine how I'm going to sleep tonight. We got together with friends of ours tonight who just got back. They're first-timers and they said it was the best vacation they ever had. Between their pictures and...

    Little Mermaid song lyric question

    I have the sheet music, so I checked. It's definitely "blabber."

    Ft. Wilderness

    I think you're right about the power grid - I heard WDW has its own, too. And I can't imagine that Disney would keep anything closed longer than absolutely necessary. The pictures of Florida they've been showing on TV are absolutely devastating - especially Punta Gorda. My heart goes out to...

    Ft. Wilderness

    Does anyone know if Ft. Wilderness is open yet? I spoke to someone in Orlando this AM and he said there are still plenty of places without power. I'm wondering if this is what happened to Ft. Wilderness. Thankfully, he said everyone he knew was okay. 3 days, 21 hours, 32 minutes, 43 seconds...

    The POSITIVE Thread!

    I love getting in the cab that takes us to the airport and then getting on the plane. It's the start of another WDW vacation! I love landing at the Orlando airport and taking their monorial from the gate to the main terminal because it means I'll be on Disney's monorail soon. I love...

    Moderate Resort question

    I've never seen any difference in the housekeeping between moderate and deluxe resorts. The most amazing thing housekeeping ever did for us was at the WL. We bought an Aladdin's genie for our son and every day when we came back to the room the genie was posed doing something else. One day he...

    AKL Question/Review

    We'll be staying there in a little over 2 1/2 weeks from now. It will be the second time and we absolutely love it. The pool is gorgeous and the animals -well, only Disney could have a resort where you can step onto your balcony and see giraffes, gazelles, etc. grazing right outside. If you...

    Travel Channel's Ultimate Disney Fan's Show

    Hi Dave! Welcome to the boards! I must tell you - out of all the things you said and did I was the most impressed with the trip planning binder. We also organize everything to the nth degree but we keep ours in a folder. The binder blew me away. I knew I had to have one. Tonight I will be...

    Whispering Canyon question...

    I'll try, but I'm not good at that kind of computer stuff. Bear with me and I'll try to have them later today.

    Whispering Canyon question...

    If you don't want them to make a fuss, tell the cast member at the podium when you check in. Last year for my son's 15th birthday the server called over every teenage girl in the Whispering Canyon and made them kiss him. It was a hoot! Was he embarrassed? Definitely! But he loved every minute of...

    Keys to the Kingdom

    The most recent info I have (2003) is that it's $58 per person and it includes lunch. There's a discount for passholders. I figure in 2004 it's a couple of dollars more. Kadee, the age limit is 16. Since your daughter is 15 that will just give you another reason to return to WDW next year!

    Keys to the Kingdom

    Has anyone ever gone on the Keys to the Kingdom tour? We're considering booking it but want to know if it's worth it. After all, we're leaving in 20 days, 0 hours, 27 minutes and 40 seconds so we're in active trip planning mode.. Yay! :sohappy:

    9 Days until we leave - not going to make it!

    I feel your pain. We're going in 23 days, 17 hours, 20 minutes and 54 seconds and it's driving me crazy. We have certain rituals we perform to make the time go. Three weeks to the day before we leave, we take out our suitcases. This way, we get to stare at them for 3 weeks and it reminds us how...

    sci fi or prime time??

    We were VERY disappointed in the Sci Fi last trip. It used to have a burger/shake kind of menu but now it's more upscale and not good at all. The shakes are still there but that's about it. The 50's Prime Time is a lot of fun and you find yourself laughing at people the CM's are "punishing." I...

    You know you're obsessed when...

    Bravo! That was brilliant! And I thought we were the only ones who had every Birnbaum and planning video since they've been in existence. We watch the video like it's "Gone With the Wind." One more thing - and I don't know how others feel about this - but it seems like when we go to WDW we...

    When are you going

    25 days and 20 hours. I don't know how I'm going to make it until then!

    Character Meal

    Chef Mickey's is my all-time favorite because it so much fun. It's like it's a big party. I love the decorate-your-own-cupcake bar. I even celebrated my birthday there last summer. If your fourteen-month-old likes Pooh, then Crystal Palace is the place to go. We always enjoy the food there. I...

    You know you're obsessed when...

    That's a good one! For the first 9 visits my friends and family would say things like, "Don't you think it's time you went somewhere else?" or "Don't you think there might be other interesting places to go?" Now they've finally caught on and they don't do that anymore. Now they say, "So when are...

    Tower of Terror Question

    You're right about us New Yorkers not being scaredy cats! I am proud to say that I have absolutely no fear of going on It's a Small World! :lol: I'm also not afraid to step foot in Yankee Stadium, ESPECIALLY in October. :king: PhilosophyMagic, in response to your question about CBR, yes...

    Tower of Terror Question

    So far everything that's been said supports my husband's position. I'm going to try it. Wish me luck! Thanks so much for your help.
