    Disney World smell

    I totally know what you mean!!!! DH, DS and I all say the same thing, some smells just remind us of Disney. I think it's often water indoors, like water features at malls, they remind me of the Pirate ride. Wish I could get it in a bottle! What's the face wash you're using that smells like Disney?

    Making the most out of Easter Week

    We had PS at Chef Mickey's at 11:15 a.m. last fall and breakfast was in full swing the whole time we were there, which was about an hour. New food was brought out the whole time and there was no pressure to hurry up or get our table cleared so you should be fine. I like the idea of Epcot and...

    Condos

    We rented from www.floridasunshine.com, got their info through AAA and we were really happy with the condos, nice quiet area, about a 10 minute drive to the parks. There are lots of rental companies to choose from, let them know if you really want to be very close to Disney and they should give...

    kali river rapids

    Soaked every time here, I think a lot depends on who you are with, the weight distribution in your group. We always say not to sit next to my DH, it's a guaranteed wet down. Short, yes, but I love the theming, the queue area is just fantastic, and am glad to have a fun way to cool down when it's...

    Petition to bring back BeaverTails to Epcot

    This is kind of an oversimplification but it's pastry that's deep fried and then topped with different sweet sauces and/or powdered sugar. Very, very delicious and hard to share. :) You can try this link to see some pictures and product descriptions http://www.beavertailsinc.com, you'll notice...

    help me choose which park to go to

    I have to agree with MK given the ages of the kids. It's simply the best park for that age group in terms of rides and variety of activities. Saturday may mean it's crowded but you can do the fast pass thing, get there for park opening to beat some of the crowds, eat at off times and use all...

    4 days/16hrs/18min/14sec till Disney world!

    Hey, DH and I will be down the same time you are, here's to some sunshine and warm weather! I'd go with the Downtown Disney thing the first night, gets you in the mood. There is a fantastic Lego store for your son - don't know how old he is though - also the World of Disney store and another...

    Stuff sent back to the hotel?

    You are a genius! Every trip we have to buy a suitcase for the extra stuff we (read "I") buy and my DH gets a little tense about it. I've told him all it really means is that we have new luggage for the next trip but somehow he doesn't think that is reasonable! This trip we will take the extra...

    Favorite Disney world snacks that you have to have?

    Any and all French pastry at Boulangerie Patisserie in Epcot, fruit tarts at Fountain View Espresso in Epcot and any chocolate in the Italian pavilion. :slurp: And you must not miss Ghirardelli's ice cream at Downtown Disney - they are lovely for sharing if you are feeling generous. :) Only 3...

    New Monorail spiel

    Oh, oh, oh, where and when did they get the magnet for you? Sounds like a great thing to have! I am so glad we bought the monorail toy when we were there last time, if they are going to monkey around with the spiel then I will still have a little piece of it to listen to here at home any time I...

    What do you do b/w WDW visits?

    Scrapbooking helps too. I don't do anything super fancy, just have a big old scrapbook for all our memorabilia - we have napkins, fast passes, stir sticks, old tickets, brochures, parking vouchers and all kinds of other stuff that goes back to the 70's because I was the one in my family who kept...

    First Time at Disney!

    The plan to split up a bit, suggested by Generation X, will save your sanity. We had a party of 14 and tried for one morning to all do the same thing - everyone had to go to the bathroom, stop for a drink or a snack or to take a picture at different times! Grandparents did well on their own with...

    Looking for info on new AP benefits for '05

    GymLeaderPhil a thousand thanks, I was checking every day to try to find out about new benefits. Does anyone know for sure whether or not the Disney Dining Experience is for Florida residents only? Sounds like a great option, DH and I are serious DW restaurant fans.

    River Country Tribute Video

    Thank you for such a great little tribute! We loved River Country for the laid back atmosphere, so different from the other water parks, which are nice but more intense and high energy. One of our best family memories is of laying on the beach at River Country, eating lunch and being able to see...

    How close together trips have you made?

    DH and I went the beginning of October - with a lot of family - and are going by ourselves in 2 weeks. The best part was when I booked our room at the end of October. The lady on the phone asked "When was your last trip to WDW?" and I said "October 2004!". She paused for a minute and then said...
