Proposal at WDW We got engaged at Disney and my wife sounds like your girlfriend. She had told me in the past that she would NOT want to be proposed to at Disney World. I took this that she wouldn't want to be proposed to at the Magic Kingdom and justified the proposal at Disney so that I could...

Run the Disney Marathon Run the Disney Marathon (26.2 miles) and you get to see all kinds of backstage areas. They run you through the areas where they keep the floats at the Magic Kingdom and behind Expedition Everest. You also see where they grow all there plants. Get training ;-)

That movie was dark That movie was dark, dark, dark. Reminded me of the Jim Carey movie, The Cable Guy but with a green theme and a lashing out at obesity. Didn't expect that one coming. That's two in a row for Pixar where they are going in a much different direction than other Disney animated...

Locals haven't been going to Disney in awhile Locals haven't been going to downtown disney in years, that is why they are doing this. When PI first opened, locals didn't have anywhere to go for nightlife and it served that need with a $25 cover and $7 drink specials - Church Street was still...

Posting story on Orlando Wheel because you'll be able to see the Disney Fireworks from it: http://www.greatwheel.com/orlando/home_english.htm <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/UIBR538t03k&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode"...

Vegas is horrible for kids. Why do you think all of the casino's are abandoning the attractions for kids. If teaching your kid to have a gambling addiction isn't bad enough, the cardboard cutouts of naked women being passed out while you walk along the strip is. I can see it now, Disney's Sin...

Just because... Just because Tiger Woods designed the golf course does not mean you will get to play golf with him. Orlando properties in Dubai (Busch and Universal) will succeed. Everything else will fail, including the condo-hotels I'm sure they were planning on selling. When Boardwalk and...

American Idol Looks Good The fact that everyone on this board hates this idea is showing that Disney is doing things right by pushing the boundaries of what the typical person expects of Disney. It's great that Disney is getting away of making the other parks to be MK clones and that DHS is...

Downtown Resurgence Back when DD opened, Orlando didn't have any real local places and the college in Orlando (UCF) had about 25,000 students that mainly stayed around campus. On New Years Eve this year, there will easily be over 100,000 people in downtown Orlando (Wall Street, Church...

Hat I believe the hat is here to stay because it is included in all of Disney's promotional material for Disney MGM where they show the 4 icons of the parks (Castle, SSE, Tree of Life, Hat). I think they need to tear down "Movie Ride" and this will open up the park to have a better hub like...

When they put the Christmas decorations up, going from the fountain to the dancing lights or vice-versa has lots of energy with the Christmas Music, with the lights and the fountain synchronized. With the addition of the candlelight processional, Epcot is one of the best places to be during...

Jellyrolls Jellyrolls is a great time, especially for couples. Very laid back dueling-piano bar. The Boardwalk does not provide a good view of the fireworks. Most of Illumniations stays close to the lake so you really can't see much at all except for the sky lighting up. Something else to...

Disney's Boardwalk Also forgot to mention that Disney's Boardwalk is a nice place to go at night. They also have a piano par like "Howl at the Moon" on I-Drive called Jellyrolls and is a fun place to visit. You'll want to park at the Disney Boardwalk resort to get there. This area is also a...

Orlando Nightlife for 20 somethings If you are looking for an authentic downtown similar to a South Beach or Ybor City, P.I. and Citywalk don't come close to downtown Orlando. The heart of activity of downtown Orlando is around Orange Ave and Church St and then heading North up Orange Ave...

Light Rail already approved from OIA to WDW Hello everyone, Light rail has already been approved to go from OIA directly to WDW and then on to Tampa. It has also been approved to go from OIA to Miami linking the three major cities of Tampa, Orlando, and Miami together. Gov. Jeb Bush is...

Hello everyone - Whenever you are at the theme parks, no matter where you go, there are going to be kids around. If you want a true night club and bar experience in Orlando, you may want to try going downtown as the downtown scene here has really taken off over the last few years. The area...
