If I was at Disney right now, I'd be.......AWOL. :p

How about dinner at the California Grill at a table with a view of the park around fireworks time?

I was there on Wednesday and had the Macadamia Nut encrusted chicken breast. It was THE BEST CHICKEN I've ever had. Highly recommend.

That's a great commercial. I've taken my kids to Disney so many times this year that they are sick (gasp!) of going. We are leaving Saturday for 9 days on our "annual passes are expiring" trip. So, it's fun to see that commercial where kids are actually excited to go to Disney. I want to...

Can you reenter DisneyQuest later if you leave sometime during the day? Do they do the handstamp thing? Thanks.

I'm trying to decide between Sunday (Feb 26) and Tuesday (Feb 28) for DisneyQuest for me and my son. Initially, I was thinking that Tuesday would be the less crowded day, since there could be more "locals" at DQ on a weekend day. But since Sunday is usually a "travel day" for vacationers...

Thanks for all the great ideas. Some of those we already have planned, but there are a few that I'm looking into. Appreciate the input.

Oh my gosh, I just looked up what the "Kitchen Sink" was! Wow. Not sure if my kids would like it, but I'm there! :slurp: Thanks for the ideas.

We are going to Disney for a "last blast" before our annual passes expire in March and we're trying to do things we haven't done already. For example, here are some of the things we have planned for this trip. - Cirque du Soliel - Princess Tea Party - DisneyQuest - Dinner/Lunch at the "cool"...

Drove to Disney from Tampa. Arrived around 1 PM. Watched the SUPER BOWL XL CHAMPIONS MVP parade and drove back home. (What a great day...sigh....) :king:

Anything official yet on the parade time??? I'm in Tampa, and am thinking about ditching work to go. I've seen 2 and 4:30 as the times so far. Anyone have the official word??? Thanks.

We've been fortunate enough (thanks to AP and military discounts) to stay at Shades of Green, Dolphin, AK Lodge, Pop Century and POFQ the last year. The two biggest things I don't like about the value and moderate resorts are how loud they are in the AM and the lack of restaurants. My family...

Does anyone know if the MVP of this year's Super Bowl will be doing the "I'm going to Disney World!" thing this year? I'm a Steelers' fan, so I'm really hoping to see "Big Ben" at Disney in a couple weeks. :)

GOOD NEWS! Here's an e-mail I got today.... I am pleased to be able to announce that we have successfully reached an agreement with Disney which will allow us to reinstate the Extra Magic Hour Program for Shades of Green guests. Effective today Shades of Green guests may participate in this...

I'm not sure I got that out of that e-mail. He said that Disney "covers the cost" by charging more for the rooms and having more rooms. But that could just mean that they are able to cover the additional costs of running EMHs through the price and volume of the Disney resort rooms. I'm not...

I understand that all resorts have to pay for EMH, but Disney gave it to Shades of Green FOR FREE prior to 1 Jan 06. Why shouldn't we be upset with Disney at this change? If they were always charging for it and now Shades of Green decided not to pay for it, that would be different. But now...

I made that same point when I e-mailed Mr. Hendryx back. Shades of Green didn't seem to be that concerned when they started charging for parking. (I think it's $3 or $5 a day.) No one would even flinch at a $2 a night increase in the room rates at Shades of Green. The cost for a room is so...

Here's the response I got back from Shades of Green. Thank you for sharing your concerns about the cancellation of Shades of Green's participation in Disney's Extra Magic Hour program. First of all let me assure you that we value your service and take seriously our goal to provide the best...

Pixie - Thanks for the info. I e-mailed Mr. McCrindle. Here's what I sent to him... Mr. McCrindle – My family and I were extremely disappointed to hear that Shades of Green guests are no longer eligible for the Extra Magic Hours program. We stayed at Shades of Green in March of last year and...

Kodiac - I e-mailed Shades of Green a couple days ago and got the "no EMH" answer from them. I'd be interested in hearing what they tell you when you give them a call. We'll be at SoG from 25 Feb - 5 Mar. So hopefully the EMH issue will get resolved by then. I still haven't gotten a response...
