    Typhoon lagoon or blizzard beach

    Typhoon lagoon is like going to the beach, a little more relaxing with some fun stuff to do. Blizzard beach is like going to an amusement park with little relaxation. Pick which suits best. My preference is TL, but I enjoy sitting in and around the wave pool all day (largest and best I've ever...

    Resort Wi Fi Coverage

    I find the wifi in the rooms slow but still usable for when I do need it. The parks do seem to be faster for me.

    Off Site Hotel For One Night

    We have stayed in the Marriott village basically across the road from the entrance of Disney on the DS side. Depending when you book it, you can get a room for under $90.

    Cincinnati bypass

    Hi, We are driving south on 75 and I have a feeling we will be hitting Cincinnati rush hour on a Friday. Rather than stop for a few hours, would it be worth taking the 275, I am assuming east is shortest? I've taken the Atlanta bypass in the past, but it was a parking lot as well. Thanks all

    Does disney accept canadian dollar at par?

    The last few years, not including this one, the Canadian dollar has basically been at par or even higher. Since then it has really dropped and does make a difference in planning for trips. I remember when Disney had that promo a number of years ago, but I believe it was just on the resorts. I...

    Q - shops near DTD area

    Probably not, I am thinking Walgreens to the right of crossroads. You might be able to find a bu route.

    Q - shops near DTD area

    Well if you have access to a car or can get down the street a bit more, you will save a lot of money. Gooddings is very expensive.

    Q - shops near DTD area

    Mostly this is dinning, there are a few shops but no outlets. The shops are also really expensive there, obviously due to the fact they are right beside Disney. Down the street on either side are more reasonable prices. Is there anything specific you are looking for? We normally go there to eat...

    Bay Lake Tower or Wilderness Lodge?

    I'd vote for the lodge, if the both of you are outdoorsy, you will love it. Even if you aren't the atmosphere is great.

    Talk my wife down from the ledge...

    I think you need to rethink the DP and 7 day parks, if she is too much right now, can you imagine 7 days at the parks? I'd suggest 2 or 3 days, then maybe a day at the waterpark and the rest relaxing by the pool, if possible?? My son was probably very similar to yours when we took him at 3, he...

    Is Chevys still at the crossroads?

    Yes it is, according to this, I couldn't remember myself - http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/26/1425770/restaurant/Disney-World-Area/Chevys-Fresh-Mex-Orlando I would advise to go down the street a bit, like walgreens, to get any groceries. It is super expensive there.

    Balloons: What do you do with them when on rides?

    And they last for weeks, even months. We bring them home, driving and they are still as good as new when we get here.

    LOL, yeah those balloons are pretty strong too. I bet you tie a few them and it would!

    Balloons: What do you do with them when on rides?

    We made that mistake one year, I ended up tying it to my backpack and leaving it outside by the strollers for each ride we all went on. It was a pain and now just get them on the way out.

    Planning a Trip for the second week in July, Am I crazy?

    Just try to go to the parks first thing in the morning, head back to the rooms for the pool/rest early afternoon and then back for late afternoon/evening to finish. This is how we managed the heat. Crowds, there's not much to do about them but make sure you use the fast passes as much as possible.

    Arrival Day at your Resort.....

    We usually drive so we arrive mid to late afternoon. Most of the time we go to DTD and start with a sandwich from Earl's then go back for a swim.

    Typhoon Lagoon or Blizzard Beach

    This seems to be asked too many times :p My vote is for TL, I'd go for the beach and wave pool alone! But if you are a thrill seeker and like slides, then BB is probably what you need.
