My DH proposed at the gazebo (sea breeze point) on the boardwalk in 2004; there were benches then. Immediately after I said yes, you could hear the fireworks from IllumiNations. We have a great picture with one of the fireworks going off just behind us. It was truly magical!

Thanks to my amazing DH, we were able to briefly be transported to the Magic Kingdom with our own homemade pineapple dole whip floats. They truly tasted like the real thing, however slightly creamier, as we used milk instead of water. Any treats you like to make at home to remind you of the world?

Thanks for the postings. We are booked at the BC for the 1st time and I was just looking into the CS options for breakfast. I will sure miss the morning trip to the food court a POR, but I think my short walk to EPCOT will make up for it.

We've stayed at both CSR and POR 3 and 4 times respectively. They are both beautiful resorts with great food court options. I would base your choice on the styling of the grounds you prefer, as they are both expansive with multiple bus stops (as opposed to POFQ). We like the alligator bayou...

Another vote for Sanaa. Great food and atmosphere. Jiko is also amazing, especially sitting at the chef table where the flat breads are prepared!

We took our son when he was 8mos, 18mos, and again at 2yrs 2mos. He always had a great time and definitely was entertained on all trips. At 18mos just walking around was fun for him but at 2 he knew what he liked and requested certain rides and 3D movies over and over. Make sure to enjoy all the...

Swim diapers have a pretty wide weight range. May be good to buy some at home and pack a few with you. You could also get a diaper cover online or at babies r us for use whenever in the pool. Buy a little bis so he can use this summer too.

Can't wait for May! We are staying at the Beach Club for the first time after many beloved trips to POR! We will be celebrating our DDs 1st birthday/1st trip and our 3 year old DS who is tall enough for some great rides this go!

I'm going to have to agree with your choice of the Polynesian. With the ease of the monorail, it's your best bet. You are allowed to keep your stroller open on the monorail as opposed to the buses, so just in case he falls asleep, you don't have to wake him. Also, it's a short trip to MK, which...

We love riverside and have stayed there our last 4 trips. The grounds at riverside are big with the buildings spread out along winding pathways. That's one of the reasons we love it. We love the walks through the bayou section. Although it's large, it's still quiet and serene. We even saw an...

We've used diapers.com for diapers, juice, snacks, etc. It's 1 day free delivery and is delivered to the front desk. Great to save room in the suitcases.

Our top 3 would be: California Grill - check out in advance what time Wishes would be so you can make a reservation to be there for the show. there's a great viewing balcony and the music is piped in. they make sure to hold your food so you can enjoy the show! Jiko or Sanaa - at AKL. food...

It was luck. We were staying at AKL at the time and went in to make our reservation and they just offered it to us. We hadn't known it was available. It may be best now to call ahead and request it when making your reservations.

Jiko is amazing! One of our favorites in Disney! If it's just adults, sitting at the cook's table (where appetizers and flatbreads are made) is a great experience. The cooks there chatted with us and gave us little samples here and there. Wonderful!

The wait staff doesn't get paid by what you have paid for your dining plan. We just were lucky to get free dining and always tipped based on the total price the meal would have been. All the money you make as a waiter/waitress basically comes from tips, but you have to share that with bussers...

we just tried via napoli for the 1st time on the 14th and i thought it was fantastic! i didn't get a cafeteria feel at all, and very much enjoyed the ambiance with the beautiful lighting and ovens. the best pizza i've ever eaten was in naples, italy, but via napoli's was outstanding! nice thin...

we were just at the coral reef 2 nights ago using our dining plan. we both loved our meal from start to finish. we each had seafood as our entree and shared the appetizer for 2. everything was delicious. our server, DJ, was fantastic! and our 2 yr old really enjoyed watching the fish swim by in...

Raglan Road is a great choice. Good food and a fun atmosphere! We went to Teppan Edo for the first time in March and were able to get in without a reservation no problem. The meal was great. They have 2 sides - one is normal table service; the other hibachi style where they cook in front of you...

Jiko's Filet with Mac & Cheese is amazing. I've had it there twice and both were equally good. By far one of the best filets I've ever eaten anywhere! It's also a great dining experience and you get to spend a little time at the beautiful AKL!
