I used to work at a water park (wavepool) and they had the same thing in the shallow end in so far deep. I was told it was slip protection because if someone slipped and got injured it was a lawsuit. Better getting some scrapes then slipping in shallow water on a slick pool bottom. Yeah.. it...

A coworker of mine just got back from WDW a few days ago and told me Dinosaur was closed for refurbishment, however, this was her first time and she may have been confused..

I despise the rain! Our trip at the end of August was ruined by Tropical Storm Faye and the 5 out of 8 days of constant rain. Luckilly we had 2 to 3 days of partial sun and warmth to make up for it, but it defintely ruined the excitement of going. Half the point of the parks is enjoying the...

I like Air Train b/c they're cheap, but I think their service is declining. We went two weeks ago and I had scheduled non-stop flight down there. About 3 weeks before our trip they said we now had to stop in Atlanta which was adding another 2 hours onto our trip. Although not a HUGE deal, it...

I was there about 2 weeks ago. I had a fastpass for Thunder Mtn RR.. according the clock in the line it was time for ours to begin. I walk up and show the CM the pass. He told me I needed to wait 2 more minutes and looked at his watch stating it was not time yet. I backed up and looked at...

Good luck with Hanna, Ike, and whoever else forms. Tropical Storm Fay ruined my Disney vacation. It poured 5 out of 8 days I was there and the sun didn't come out once. I about had that stupid poncho glued to my skin by the end. I realized not getting to enjoy the atmopshere of the park...

Yeah last week Mr Potato Head attempted to do his ear stunt and instead dropped it. After that he was frozen for a few minutes until an employee came out and it put the ear back into his head. Shortly after he was reset and started up his spiel again. Maybe this wasn't worked out too well?

Last week during my trip an EMH Epcot night they did not give out wristbands to us, we just had to show our resort cards at each ride. I personally thought it was a nuisance. The slow EMH nights I can see getting off and on rides over and over and having to show your ID card each time. :shrug:

Ha ha, it's funny to hear how the storm made it fun for some. I personally thought it put a huge damper on my trip. I was there from August 18 to 26th. 5 out of 8 days had terrible rain (related to Fay) at some point. Yes, the waits were shorter and we get to ride alot, but having a peaceful...

8 more hours! :o) I'm leaving for my flight in 25 minutes for a wonderful 8 day trip.. which will be greeted/ruined by Fay. :(

I'm flying in Monday evening to WDW.. I'm hoping we can get in before storm hits. I've never experienced a hurricane or tropical storm. If it hits as either, how long can we expect it to last? weather.com shows it over the Orlando area for about a day or less? Is this accurate? I'm very...

I'm headed down to WDW and Universal this Monday for 8 days.. and it's been over 2 1/2 years since I've been! Can anyone tell me how the crowds/weather have been for either parks? I know alot of people said it calms down near the end of August.. can I expect this, or will it still be packed...

I read a little bit about the "Keys to the Kingdom" backstage tour at MK and from everyones response it sounds like it's great. Am I correct in remembering it being $90.00 a person? My friend and I leave on Monday for an 8 day trip to WDW and USF.. and we haven't been in 2 1/2 years.. so...

Yeah, I always do MK first and last. Probably b/c it's the first park, it has a wide variety of lands and rides. I like the others but just don't feel like you can re-ride as many things in one night. The different atmospheres from the various areas of MK I would say is the biggest part of...

I guess it depends on the time of year. We loved EMH especially at Magic Kingdom when it's open until 3am. I thought there was a huge drop in crowds and it was great. When it first starts you might see a flux of more people, but when it got to be 1 & 2am it slowed down I thought. We rode...

Is mini-golf open after 10pm? Yeah, I couldn't believe it.. literally ONE day before we arrived everything is open late like it's a huge party.. Universal (where we're also going) is open until 10pm and all the Disney parks are open super late. The day we get there, of course, the party is...

So this is my first August WDW trip, we're going 8/18 to 8/26 - I'm pretty pumped as I haven't been in 2 1/2 years. I booked my trip during these days b/c I read I would get cheaper resort rates, etc.. HOWEVER, I didn't think about the earlier park hours. I was extremely disappointed when I...

So I just looked at Disney's website and they have a "end of the summer" deal going on where between late August and September you can get $69.00 (value) resort rooms. Ironically enough I am going August 18th to 26th (which qualifies) and did not get this rate. I bought the package near the...

I actually booked it through the disneyworld website. Not only did my flight times change, but also the flight numbers. Instead of a direct flight we're now stopping in Atlanta for about an hour and then going from there. Does anyone know the number I need to call for this? I'm guess I would...

So I already booked my trip to WDW in late August. I was sent an e-mail today saying my flight has changed.. not by date, but just the flight numbers and the exact times have been extended slightly. Is it important that I contact Disney to correct this.. or does it really matter how specific...
