Thank all of you. This will help when making our FP reservations.

We are taking our son, DIL and granddaughter for a visit this spring. We have room reservations, dining reservations and assorted other activities based on the amount of days prior to our visit. My question is can I let my son or DIL use one of my fast pass reservations if I can’t use it? My...

Grandpa wore this shirt on his honeymoon at WDW on opening day, 10/01/1971. Hard to believe I still have the shirt and granddaughter Evie could do a pose in the shirt. Evie doesn’t know yet but she is going to Disney world this spring for her first time. I hope she can be my shirt model for a...

Becky and I did our first podcast ever about our visit to the Magic Kingdom on opening day. It was a new experience and I guess you can never outgrow the enjoyment of new things. http://podcast.retrodisneyworld.com/#.VgHi9m8oHWo.facebook

It has been a long delay but I am pleased to report that my opening day at WDW 10/01/1971 trip report has been revised and is ready to view. My son, Nick, made major improvements on the pictures and we have presented the project to Keith Mahne at Disney Avenue. There are 192 images from...

My apologies for this post. I now get the Monty Python response. I didn’t want to open the worm jar. I now recall the “tipping” issues on Vegas websites. Yes, run away. I didn’t consider it here.

Man, I love the Apple Barn. Their apple fritters are awesome when consumed with the supplied apple butter as a condiment. I had made plans to stop there on our way home from WDW in April, 2016. We had reservations for free deluxe rooms at Harrah’s in Cherokee, NC. My son wanted to prolong...

Ever since our visit to WDW on opening day the first thing to do was get our picture in front of the flower Mickey and then thru the left portal take in the castle view down Main St and then to the train around the Kingdom. On successive visits after our son was old enough to travel with us he...

Actually that was my next question. Last in Vegas was a while back as well but I think it was $3 - $5 per day. Ran into a glitch when the maid who got the total $ in an envelope only did the room for one day and the maid other got stiffed. I was advised later to leave envelope daily. It did...

Gee thanks for making me feel really OLD!:eek: I guess now I am classified as collectable and soon moving right on into antique status.:arghh:

Some years ago the Disney resort hotels left a card in your room that said something like, “Do not tip the housekeeping/maid staff. Fill out the card for recommendation of good service. Disney will provide them with compensation”. Does this still happen? I know that in Vegas we usually leave...

Dear Valued Members of the WDWMAGIC forum, I have decided to remove my pictures from my posts on the Forum. This is based on sound legal advice once I was informed that, what are precious memories to me, have been used by others who are misrepresenting the origin of the photographs. Once I...

There seems to be some debate over the CR open or not. Everything I can resource from the internet indicates open 10/01/1971. When we boarded to monorail for the MK we were given an announcement to the purpose of telling us the monorail would NOT go through the concourse of the CR due to...

Thanks jme. I will look into this. It just seems a shame that one has to CYA but I am reminded of Walt Disney when he lost the rights to Oswald, I believe. That changed his perception of every thought he had commercially from thence forward.

Fractal, I am a fairly new member of these forums so I have not had the pleasure of following your previous TR as many others have. Your pictures are without a doubt some of the best I have ever had a chance to view. I originally read your TR on a Kindle Fire and the pics were so vibrant and...
