We're staying at Bay Lake Tower for our July trip and we are not happy about this. We stay at monorail resorts because of the convenience of taking the monorail to two parks. Sure, we could walk to MK in the morning. We've done that on occasion, but it's a fairly long walk to start off a hot...

Like you, I don't want the other stuff (we never have enough PhotoPass/Memory Maker pictures to justify the cost). I called PhotoPass customer service today to ask about it. Attractions+ is still available, but the price has gone up from $44.95 to $49.95. I think it's still a good value...

My first trip was July 1976. We had a great time, but it wasn't as good as it should have been. My parents used a travel agent in our town to book the flight and a room at the Contemporary. One month before the trip, she told my dad that we didn't have our room reservation. She admitted that...

It might be the finish. I've never been happy with the glossier paints, but I'll have to give Polymark or Scribbles a whirl and see if I can get the same results as you. I used Scribbles a long time ago and the paint cracked and eventually peeled off in spots. It sounds like they've improved...

I've been going to Disney since 1976 and I have never dared to ride Space Mountain, Expedition Everest or Dinosaur. I've been on Tower of Terror only twice (back in 1996). When we go back this summer, I'm going to hit every thrill ride in the parks and I'm getting an Attractions+ PhotoPass to...

Where did you find the buttons? I've been searching, but can't find them.

I was surprised to read this. I've been using Tulip flexible fabric paint, the matte paints in particular, and haven't experienced any cracking after years of use. I've worn and washed this shirt I made many, many times and it looks as good as the day I made it.

Disney dollars can't be used as legal tender anywhere other than Disney.

We bought passes at AAA on Saturday and linked them to our MagicBands online the same day. You have to scratch off the metallic gray area on the back of the card to get the correct number. We're bringing the actual passes with us just in case there's a problem.

Has anyone used the new Attractions+ card? I don't use PhotoPass all that much, but I'm really interested in getting digital downloads from the rides that have photos. I'm assuming the card's account will have only ride photos (since the downloads are all covered under the $45 fee) and that...

We've purchased our tickets through AAA for quite a few years, while my parents (who don't have a membership) buy from Undercover Tourist. We've had good service from both. The prices do vary for certain types of passes and lengths of stay, so you'll have to see which company has better prices...

We bought park passes at AAA on Saturday and linked them to our account the same day. It was quick and easy.

I was just going to ask this question. My kids' school would never allow us to take them out of school for a month-long vacation.

Thanks for the advice. Things have changed a little, because now my parents think they will be staying at All-Star Music. Taking a cab for every trip to and from a park isn't possible and my dad's driving skills aren't that good, so renting a car probably won't work. If the bus can't be...

I'm planning our 2014 trip and need some help for my mother. She's in her 70s and in good health, but often has trouble stepping off Disney buses. If the bus driver lowers the side of the bus to minimize the distance between the last step and the ground, we're fine. If the driver doesn't do...

I don't like the BLT rooms. The furniture isn't particularly comfortable or durable. The black lacquer was wearing off, we had problems with the drapes in almost all of the rooms, multiple items were missing from the kitchen, bathroom towel holders were loose, etc. To me, it seems the...

How about a video?

Does anyone have a clear picture of the footprints at the end of Pirates? I'm doing a POTC theme for Halloween this year and I'd like to stencil the boot and peg leg print on my driveway.

I love Kidani Village. Staying there was like a vacation within a vacation. It was fun in the parks and then we'd go home to a resort that was relaxing and peaceful. My kids loved the pool and water play area. If you can, try to get a room with a savannah view. There are public observation...

Thanks! I didn't take the picture from the ferry. We rented a pontoon boat at the Contemporary. I took hundreds of pictures during the hour or so we were out. It was fun to see the hotels and MK from a different view. :) I like this picture because the Contemporary and Bay Lake Tower frame the...
