    FL Resident Ticket Clarification

    Mousermerf is right. I have heard many people who have budgeted their plans around "grandma who live in Florida" buying them Florida resident passes. I can tell you they do enforce this one.

    help me plz someone!!!!!!!!

    Escambia is in the Panhandle. It is the first county in Florida as you're going East on I-10. In other words, it's the farthest you can be from WDW without leaving the state!!

    help me plz someone!!!!!!!!

    I am a teacher and I never heard of FALL BREAK -- our kids get no Fall Break and are in school for Columbus Day. Kids get enough time off - it is hard enough to keep up with all the new standards when every time you turn around the kids are off for vacation when no real school vacation is...

    help me plz someone!!!!!!!!

    The first/second weeks in October used to be GREAT. The Food and Wine Festival is going on then, but the crowds were still low. The problem now is that schools across the nation are now having a "fall break" in addition to the traditional "spring break". We went after Columbus Day last year...

    No more Ice Station Cool snow?

    I just went to EPCOT and asked the CM what happened to the snow. She said that "someone" had gotten hurt from a chunk of ice that had built up ant that they wouldn't have it anymore.

    Grosvenor

    Don't do it I stayed at the Grosvenor this Memorial Day. We had no choice as it was a last-minute trip, and the "values" were all booked. The grunginess of this place cannot be over-stated. The whole outside needed a serious pressure washing. The elevator is microscopic and terrribly slow...

    Best Moderate Resort???

    Port Orleans - Riverside is not only the best moderate, it's also our favorite of the Disney resorts. There are multiple bus stops, but if you've ever stayed at the 50's building of Pop, you know that can be a good thing. The grounds are lovely, the CM's great, the food court is central, the...

    Mickey Waffles - where can I find them ?

    Well, among other places, I know they have the waffles at the Pop Century food court. That's probably true for the other resorts too. As for the butter, I've never seen them but they sound cool!!

    September in WDW

    A GREAT time to go! October used to be good, but ever since the new "Fall Break" was instituted at schools across the country that is no longer true. In fact, I'll be there that week too. As for your plan, are you sure you're leaving enough time for EPCOT???? EPCOT is definitely a full day...

    Suggestions on where to stay with kids

    In short, if money is the driving force, go value. However, the cabins are a nice change-up to the ordinary, and are much larger than rooms. With kids, a huge consideration is that you get your own kitchen (fridge, stove, toaster) at the cabins, along with a nice dining table. Getting kids...

    breakfast at Restaurant Akershus

    Sadly, the Princess breakfast in Norway is not as good as we had hoped. If you can't score a table at Cindy's, it would be MUCH better to go to the breakfast at Chef Mickey's. The princesses at Norway were okay, but simply put, the food just wasn't that good, the selection was very limited and...

    Florida Resident Rules

    Yep, they only ask for one person's I.D. (the person checking in) and never ask again. If you do express checkout, you'll never see the front desk again.

    Night shows poll

    It wasn't on the list, but Fantasmic is batter than all. After that, Illuminations!

    If you could pick just one!

    Well, I'd have to say the San Angel Inn. The food and ambience are wonderful. An escape.

    Coronado or Port Orleans Riverside?

    I've been to both POR and Coronado, and it's no contest. POR wins hands down. POR is relaxing and quiet, with easy access to the ammenities. The CM's were some of the friendliest I've met at a resort. Your 8 year old will love "Old Man Island". As other posts suggest, the POR food...

    The Behind The Magic Tour

    We did the "Behind the Magic" tour back in September. We read many reviews, but had the see it for ourselves. In short, it was worth every penny. Period. The tour guide was knowledgeable, and didn't pull any punches. All of the questions were answered frankly, and if he didn't know the...

    AP/E-ride night question

    Yes, unfortunately that will make a difference. Basically, two things are required for an e-ride ticket. 1) A multi-day pass (your AP qualifies). 2) You're staying at a WDW resort. So, you won't be eligible for the e-ride pass this time. You'll still have a GREAT time, and who knows maybe...

    Trouble at the Gates??

    I've got to agree with everyone else. Just tell the gate CM that your child is two, no muss, no fuss.

    Magical Moments Pins

    I mentioned this in another thread, but I found a site that sells the batteries very cheap. They run out FAST, and are quite pricy as well. I'm not sure how much they are at the parks, but saw them for $3.99 a pop at Target. You can get them on-line for $.74 apiece. I'll be glad to share the...

    Magical Moments pins batteries

    Sure, my pleasure. I am not in any way connected with these folks, but their site is: http://www.jewelrysupply.com They have a cross reference to find the battery you need, but to save you time, the battery is the "CR2032". You can have a few Mickey ice cream bars with the money...
