    First trip with a 1 year old

    To all parents who traveled with a 1 year old I've got a couple of questions since this will be my son's first trip to WDW. - what did you do if your little one likes to fall asleep with music? We have a CD he listens to so I wondered if there are CD player alarm clocks in the room or if...

    After-Thanksgiving Crowds

    Fauna, we're arriving the same day, although staying off-property on the 29th. We'll probably be shopping, visiting resorts since my in-laws never been to WDW. Also, this is my 1 year old's first trip so the wait is killing me, lol. We'll be staying at Boardwalk Villas after that.

    After-Thanksgiving Crowds

    5 Hrs and I'm too excited...

    Hehe, I'd suggest getting some rest before you leave but trying to sleep when you're that excited is difficult. To me, it's like waiting for Christmas morning to arrive when you're a kid. Most of all, remember to have fun and enjoy EVERY minute. I've seen way too many people and families...

    Meal planning

    The free dining plan is offered as part of a vacation package if you have a Disney Visa card. I received an email with a pin code and certain dates where free dining applied. Unfortunately for us I couldn't use it because we're going Thanksgiving weekend. Maybe next time.

    just a question about flights

    I was booked on AirTran for 2 non stop flights and they changed my return flight to a stop over in Atlanta without notification. After reading someone else's post about AirTran I was able to cancel and get a full refund on my flight. After that I booked with American for $200 less than what I...

    Two Questions...

    Beer and wine is only sold in grocery stores. If you want hard liquor you have to go to a liquor store, it's Florida law. Found on allears.net 'There is a liquor store adjacent to the Albertson's on Orange Blossom Trail and to the Publix on Town Center Blvd'

    Two Questions...

    Goodings is probably the closest but it's also the most expensive. As other posters mentioned you can find a Publix close by (which is what I prefer) and I know there's a Super Wal-Mart just south of Downtown Disney.

    Meal planning

    I have never done the dining plan, thought about it for our upcoming trip but we have a 1 year old and don't want to keep doing a table dinner every day for our trip. I was told it's alot of food and I don't want to keep on a schedule for reservations. Don't get me wrong we do have some...

    Best hotel for budget - POR, CS or CBR?

    I have to say POR. I've stayed at both French Quarter and Riverside many times and I'm never disappointed with my stays. I really love the atmosphere at Riverside and how 'at home' it makes you feel. Probably my favorite part is the landscaping for each of the different buildings. Each...

    WDW Picture of the Day (Continued)

    How's this for details? If you look closely at the shine (the peaks) they match Mount Everest exactly. I love taking pictures like this.
