    When y'all going?

    Will be there Dec 23 - 27th with my wife and son, my parents, my sister and her husband, her two kids and their spouses - in other words, a crowd! We're all staying at PopCentury :D Can't Wait!

    Anyone Have an Olympus Stylus Digital Camera

    Bulky? Not at all, and with its magnesium frame it is very lightweight. Hey, I am use to hauling around a Nikon N-2020 with a 35 -100mm lens! And for years before that an older Nikon with a seperate motor drive! That was bulky:lol: Talk about a brick around your neck! No, the C-5050 is just...

    Anyone Have an Olympus Stylus Digital Camera

    I was a long time Nikon user until I researched digital cameras 2 years ago. I bought an Olympus D-510 (a precursor to the Stylus line) and loved it! Got the best pictures at WDW I've ever taken. I just "traded up" to an Olympus C-5050 (5 Megapixel) - their most advanced non-pro model, and can't...

    The Big "Five-oh"

    DMC - Apparently you and my wife are correct - unfortunately. I guess in a Disney induced euphoria I was trying to think the best of my fellow man - Sad, but I guess I should know better. Heck, I even try to find reasons to excuse the strolder wielding, line cutting, handicap faking people I...

    The Big "Five-oh"

    Okay - my wife says she has heard of "some" looting. I must have missed it - OH GOD - I'M HAVING A SENIOR MOMENT:D

    The Big "Five-oh"

    DMC - To the best of my knowledge there has been no looting. As far as power - we got ours back about 4PM Saturday - but over 700,000 are still without in the area. Reference the looting- where did you hear that? People here have been very well behaved, even stoic about it. It's odd - I've...

    The Big "Five-oh"

    All you 'youngsters' on the forums - a note of caution: Yesterday was yours truly's 50th birthday (Yes there are a few of us 'oldsters' lurking around here - note: my mental age is around 18-21 at the most) :D I had planned to spend it at my favorite restaurant with my family - I spent it on...

    Sea sickness and cruises....

    I couldn't resist replying: Seasick? on a cruise ship?!:lol: I am a retired naval officer who has seen more green water over the bow than I care to remember. Trust me; there is very little likelyhood you will get seasick on a cruise ship unless you talk yourself into it. Reasons: 1. The ships...

    Port Orleans Riverside

    As you will note from my signature, we have stayed there 3 times. It is, IMHO, the best of the moderates. The theming and landscaping are gorgeous, and Boatwright's is great. Several times on these forums people have compared it to getting a "deluxe" feel for a moderate price. I heartly agree...

    All Stars or Pop Century?

    I have never stayed at the All Stars - but my whole family booked the AS Movies for our Christmas trip. When a great deal came up on the Pop Century for the Holidays, we went through the trouble of switching all our reservations - if for no other reason than it will be brand new! Something...

    WDW and Busch VA???

    Don't get me wrong - I really like Busch Gardens Williamsburg. I live 30 minutes away, and have had AP's for years. I even worked there when I was in college (William & Mary), so I've experienced it "backstage" as well. But to rank it ahead of WDW? No Way!:lol: Yes it's a lovely park - but the...

    Favorite movie theme?

    It is hard to narrow it down. But one I would submit for consideration is the main theme from "King's Row". Every time I play it for someone unfamiliar with that movie they say "Hey, all that guy did was rip off John Williams! Its a cross between Star Wars and Superman!" The problem with that of...

    Lucky the Dinosaur

    I'm not sure why Lucky is attracting so much attention. As I point out to my family every time we go, all the squirrels at WDW are Animatronic!:D Absolute marvels of miniaturization that make Lucky look clumsy!:animwink:

    I'm going through DIsney withdrawal!

    Hi, my name is Jim and I'm a Disneyholic. My last trip was July of last year. My next trip is 23-27 Dec this year. How can I convince my wife that 18 months between trips it too long?:hammer:

    Squirrels

    It is a well known fact that all the squirrels at WDW are free roaming Audio-Animatronic figures: Marvels of miniaturization that make that dinosaur at CA look like a throw back!:animwink:
