    Mission Space (Intense Version): Have You Ever Gotten Sick?

    I've never had any issues with it, but I have only felt nauseous after one ride in my life. I've ridden it multiple times in a row after eating and drinking with nothing. I even do everything that you aren't supposed to do (close my eyes, turn my head) and still nothing. I remember riding it...

    Princess Half Kids Race Question

    Does anyone know if the kids races during the Princess Half Marathon weekend are actually at Epcot? That is what it says on the FAQ section of the website. I thought they would be at the Wide World of Sports complex, like during the other WDW events.

    Disney's Princess Half Marathon Weekend

    I know registration for 2016 starts on July 14. What time will the website open? My husband wants to sign up for the GSC, and I want to do the 10K.

    Stroller to rent to bring what to do?

    We always bring our own stroller. We like to have it to use around the airport and around the hotel. We have flown on lots of different airlines and have never been charged for checking a stroller or car seat. If you take a stroller, definitely take it all the way to the gate with you. When...

    Fireworks Snob

    Disney has ruined every hotel for me. My husband and I spent a weekend at the Gaylord in the National Harbor outside of Washington, DC. It is a very nice hotel, built around a 19 story atrium with live plants, a replica of a colonial village, and a huge water fountain that does hourly shows...

    Tell me about the water parks

    It depends on what you are looking for in a water park. Blizzard Beach has better slides overall, most of which your 2 year old will not be able to go on, but Typhoon Lagoon has a water coaster. They both have lazy rivers, but Typhoon Lagoon's is slightly deeper and shadier. Typhoon Lagoon's...

    Signature Restaurants

    We took our daughter at 3 months to the California Grill. I would take her to a signature restaurant again without hesitation. She is generally well-behaved at the restaurants, and we try to make our ADRs for early dinners to make sure that she is not near her prime cranky time. If she starts...

    Magicbands on little ones?

    We took our 2 year old, and she didn't wear her magic band at all. Until she got cranky at dinner. Then she wore all the magic bands.

    Night of Joy crowds

    We always go during the week of Night of Joy. Early in the day, it has always been like normal. The crowds starting picking up after lunch. I'm pretty sure that the Night of Joy ticket will let you into the parks starting at 4, so most people showed up around then. We generally go to the MK...

    I can take my one year old on??

    We took our daughter at 15 months (see profile pic). We went on everything that didn't have a height restriction. Here are some of my impressions: Dumbo is awesome. Not so much for the ride, event though she liked that, but for the playground in the line. My daughter wasn't quite walking...

    Tomorrowland Terrace

    We normally go in the off season, but it was open when we were there for NYE a few years ago. Huge disappointment for us. I was so excited that it was open and was completely disappointed in the food. I had some kind of Asian-ish noodle bowl that was lukewarm. It was so blah that I can't...

    On the go in MK

    We always do Cosmic Ray's at least once when we are in the MK. It has selections for everyone, from my almost-vegetarian sister-in-lay to my carnivore brother. I normally get the veggie burger (maybe vegan?) and load it up with stuff from the toppings bar. It's pretty good. My brother always...

    Flying or Drivng with a 2 year old?

    We have taken our now 3 year old on several drives and car trips, including flights to Disney when she was 3 months, 15 months, and 2 years old. Here are my thoughts on flying. PROS: SOOOO much faster. She had lots of fun running around the airport. She loves looking at planes and playing on...

    Cinderella's Castle

    You will be fine in shorts. One of the big reasons that we love going to Disney is because you can eat at nice restaurants in your sweaty clothes. I have eaten at just about every restaurant on property, including signature ones, and have never dressed up. I'm on vacation. I don't want to...

    The youngest you would take a kid

    We took our daughter for the first time at 3 months. Of course she doesn't remember it, but even then you could tell she enjoyed it. She was a little sponge taking in everything (colors, music, etc). She enjoyed the Dumbos and Small World (smiles and giggles). Most importantly, we really...

    Babies in Disney

    We took our daughter at 15 months in Sept, and it wasn't too bad (not as easy as 3 months, but easier than 27 months). We generally had 2 extra outfits in the diaper bag, sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, some washcloths (to put on her neck in case she got hot), sippy cup filled with water, and...

    Animal Kingdom and Epcot same day with park hopper?

    We have done this before, though we generally end up going back to both of those parks at least one more time during our trip (love park hopping!). With little kids, there isn't a lot you can do ride-wise at AK. We get there early to make sure we do the safari first thing. Then we walk around...

    'Ohana or 1900 for Breakfast?

    I loved Akershus. It had the standard breakfast options for the not-as-adventurous, and some other options for the slightly-more-adventurous. The smoked salmon was delicious, and I ate a ton of it. That's one of my favorite breakfast foods anyway. We got lots of pictures with all of the...

    How old for your child to really LIKE the pool?

    Our daughter has always been OK with the pool, but she loved the kiddie splash areas starting around 2. She was perfectly content to play in those the whole time, which was not the greatest for the adults since we wanted to be in the pool. One thing to know is that we have never had a problem...
