I was just there last week. I think we got to try four different types of soda. My kids think it's a hoot to try sodas from different countries. They think it's funny to trick their dad into thinking that some of the soda is good! :lol:

I've been going to Disney almost every year since I was eight (that's a lot of trips :p ). Anyway, the past five years or so we've been renting pool homes or condos five miles from Disney. I just got back Sunday and from our three bedroom two bath condo you could see Everest!!! It took us...

I personally don't take my kids out of school for vacations. Too many of my friends have done it and told me horor stories about the amount of make-up work the kids have when they get back. In one case, my friends' son (3rd grade) had so much work, it took him one month to make up. Let's say...

We leave tomorrow too. We're staying at a condo five minutes from the parks. I'm looking forward to Pirates and Everest. I haven't been on Everest yet and can't wait to see all the work they've done to Pirates. Should be wonderful.............can't wait to leave! :wave:

I absolutely LOVE Disney.............can't say enough great things about the mouse. That being said, my husband, myself, and my two kids truly enjoy Islands of Adventure almost as much as Disney..........I said ALMOST ;). We always end our trip with one or two days in Universal/Islands of...

Unreal! I can't stand her. My DD (11) used to idolize her. Now even she can't stand her...........tells you something when an 11 yr. old can see what a messed up person she is!:hammer:

I wouldn't put much stock into this rumor.:rolleyes:

We went to CRT once for my daughters eight birthday. The princess were great, Cinderella, Fair Godmother, Snow White, Belle, Aura & Mary Poppins were there. They gave my daughtere a birthday certificate with all their signatures on it. As for the food............YUK! Of course we didn't go...

Thanks for the update! We're leaving Thursday for WDW. Glad to hear that the wait time for Pirates isn't too, too long. I was worried that I'd be in line for hours because there's no FP and we won't make it to MK until after 1:00pm. Thanks again. :wave:

I'm with you! I wish everyone in there would be nice and quiet so the "newbies" and kids could get the full effect of the stretch room. I remember as a kid squeezing my dad's arm because there was "no way out!". Now with everyone talking along, you can barely hear the "ghost host". :mad: :zipit:

I think the parent swap is a great thing. I know riding alone isn't quite as much fun, but, IMO, it's better than not being able to ride at all. I think the idea about taking another adult with you is a good idea, if you have a close friend or family member you get along with (and I mean...

I'm also a full blooded Italian originally from Boston and can say I totally agree with you guys. If you want good Italian food, just come to the North End and you'll get it! :lol: :lol:

I voted for Crystal Palace. It's always been our favorite for breakfast. A few years ago, we went to Chef Mickey's. It was good, but found it EXTREMELY hot where we were seated. So much so, it was hard to eat comfortably. Also, it was my daughters birthday and we were disappointed as to how...

I agree that your trip (w/o air) should only be around $1500. If the free dining plan isn't available, you might want to stop by the grocery store and pick up a cheap stirophone (sp??) cooler and some of your favorite foods. We always get plenty of water, soda, juice, tuna, pb&j, and snacks...

I usually get the largest hopper they have. I think it the 10 day plus 5 extras with no expiration date. This is my third year going with the same tickets. I just divy up the days according to what we'd like to do. On the days that we do the water parks, we do not go into the parks and vice...

"The problem becomes compounded by Disney's mastery of themed elements. Go to a regional park, and the steel and wooden scream machines are visible for miles. The thrills are as obvious as they are naked. But at Disney, some guests may not be aware of quick-launching coasters or a space-themed...

Do you have any names of companies you use? I've looked around and even rented from a couple of different places, but none have been able to touch "cheap". Last year I got a four bedroom, two bath pool home for $94/night plus tax. We split the house with friends and it worked out great ($47...

I've never used Advantage so I can't help you there. But the one I use all the time (and recommend to friends and family) is www.cheaporlandovacationrentals.com. If you want to check them out, call Don Lupian 888-879-8559 and tell him Michele from New Hampshire sent you. He'll give you a...

We liked Hollywood & Vine the best. My kids really enjoy the buffet. The way my 16 yr. old son eats, nothing beats a buffet. :slurp:

Thanks for all the great info.! I can't wait to ride it. We leave a week from Thursday...............can't wait!!!!:sohappy:
