Water bottles We ordered two of the heavy duty sport bottlesand they were fantastic! http://www.innovapurewater.com/html/products/all_water_filtration_products.htm We filled them with some ice and water in the room, put them in the backpack and refilled them as needed during the day. The water...

The souvenir I always wanted I always wanted one of the little flashlights with the fiber optics that changed colors. I always got them for my girls whenever we visited in the 70's and 80's, but they slowly disappeared. The spinning ones are nice, but the flashilights were so simple and pretty...

We bought 2 water filter bottles and they were great. This site is less expensive than the camping gear sites and the filters last a long time. We put ice in them and then water from the tap each day as we packed up for the parks. We refilled them whenever necessary and had fresh water at a...

We stayed at the Contemporary in Sept. and we were told by several Contemporary CM's, in no uncertain terms, that construction on the North Tower making it a part of DVC would start by the end of October. Several of these CM's were a bit sad because the Contemporary would be losing so many...

When I brought up the possibility of buying our park tickets somewhere other than through our travel agent, said agent encouraged me to save money. She said it didn't bother her one bit. I managed to save a good bit with a AAA discount, and a savings code I found on www.mousesavers.com...

We leave TOMORROW!!!!! YAYYYY!!!! We ran into friends who visited the parks a week ago and they said that they waited no more than 5-10 minutes for rides. Hmmm....hope its that way this week. Six days of magic, ahhhhh! Sheila

We travel a lot and recently stayed in the Marriott-LaGuardia. The HSIA was $12.95 for 24 hours. When we stay at Hampton Inns, it's free. Whenever we have to pay for it, DH just dials in on a local access #. Yes, it's dial-up, but it's great just to glance through the email and save the big...

I stay away from the Tea Cups as I find it hard to walk or see straight after I've ridden them in the past. I never miss the Hall of Presidents, but it's going to be down during our trip next week, darn it. (Yes, I'm one of those people who gets teary eyed during anything of a patriotic nature...

Only 7 more days for us WOOHOOO!!!! I ran into an aquaintance who'd just gotten back from WDW a couple of days ago and she said that although it was still hot, the lines were down to almost nothing. They never waited more than 5-10 minutes for anything. :sohappy: I'm so excited I can hardly...

Geez...leave up to the ACLU to take the fun out of everything! What's next??

We'll be at the Contemporary Sept. 19-24. :sohappy: I've stayed there several times before with my kids and I'm always in awe of the building itself. The wonderful architecture of the main building, the monorail going right through, the convenience of being so near the park...all of these...

It'll just be just my husband and I this trip (YAY!), so we decided to carry a small backpack. We don't carry a whole lot, mainly water, camera, sunscreen. Since I'm not fond of the taste of the WDW water, I found a site that sells sport bottles with their own little filters and last for a...

My husband and I spend an average of 1-2 nights a week in hotels, due to his work. We stay in Hampton Inns whenever possible. The rooms are nice and most, if not all of the chain, have upgraded the bedding, linens, etc. Plus they have free breakfasts...not just the continental typeeither. They...

As far as tipping Mousekeeping, my question is....do you leave a tip everyday, or just combine the amount and leave it in an envelope at the end of your stay? Sheila

We're going in September, for 6 days, and are scheduled to check-in on a Tuesday. Instead of killing ourselves in the rush to drive down from Atlanta, DH suggested we leave on Monday, take a leisurely drive down and spend the night somewhere close by in Orlando. This way we can check into the...

Oooooo the pic were great! BTW, looking at the COP, is it still open each day? We're going in Sept. and it's one of most favorite places.

The monorail message shirt is great! I just purchased 2 for my nephews' birthdays. They're going to WDW in August, our trip is in September. The message is in English on the front, Spanish on the back..."Please stand clear of the doors"....."Por favor matanganese alejado de las puertas". They...

Thanks Merf! :sohappy: Whew! I'm glad to hear about the lesser intense side of the ride. We're going in Sept. and DH wants the full experience. Me....well....I'll settle for the tamer side.

Tipping mousekeeping? We're going to WDW in Sept. and have reservations at the Contemporary. Is there a rule of thumb on how much to tip mousekeeping? We're staying 6 days.
