    Disney with broken leg??

    I'm sorry about your injury - that blows my sprained ankle out of the water! The only experience I've had with broken bones at Disney was when my brother broke both of his arms a week before we left years ago, but since he could still walk that doesn't really help you, does it? Since it...

    Things that gross you out in WDW.

    The turkey legs are pretty gross to me... gross enough that my friend's wife took a picture of him and his daughter about to bite into one and sent it to me. I'm also a bit of a germophobe, so thinking too much about what people have been touching after they've been touching something else...

    Who has ran the marathon race at wdw??

    I'm also considering signing up for the half marathon - it would be my first, and my mom and I would move our Ladies' Vacation back a month so I could have at least one fan in my cheering section! I've been slack about registering though; I sprained my ankle pretty badly a few weeks ago, and...

    Changes to Aloha Isle Dole Whip Flavors

    I'm excited about trying an orange-flavored Dole Whip - I always feel a litte goofy ordering the vanilla since I'm not the biggest fan of pineapple. :)

    POR - Tips and Opinions?

    My family typically stays at POR now for our trips (Mom and I will be there again this December!), and I'm going to be odd and say that I prefer the mansions... maybe that's because I got lost trying to find my room in AB one night when I had a stomach bug, and I'm still suffering the...

    For Women's Eyes Only

    Photoshop was my favorite suggestion! :lol: I use only Bare Escentuals makeup, and it's a lot fresher feeling for me than traditional foundations. If you absolutely have to wear mascara, waterproof is the way to go. I'm fine with the amount of color I already have on my lips, so I just...

    planning for 2010

    I'm also considering going in 2010 - if I can actually stick with a training plan, I'd like to try the half marathon in January. Next year's was already full, so now I have plenty of time to prepare.

    December reservations?

    We just booked a trip for December on Saturday (12/2-12/7) staying at POR. I didn't realize that all those other events were taking place at that time; funny, considering I went the same time last year. :lol: I wish going later in the month was cool with my mom, but she likes to have the...

    The Old Disney Channel

    Wow, I'm so glad to know it's not just me... but maybe my opinion is a little out there! I swear, every time I would change to the Disney Channel, I'd have to race for the Volume button to turn it down - I wondered if the cable company just put that channel through a little bit louder than the...

    2009 rates

    I'm also "eagerly" awaiting news of 2009 rates - Mom and I will be heading back that December and staying at the Polynesian for a change. We want to book as soon as possible!

    For the ladies...

    I have naturally curly hair (I was unfortunately called Annie until high school), and also being from NC I'm not stranger to frizzies. Florida definitely has a little something more on home on the frizz front, though! I do style my hair straight for just about every day (but I don't actually...

    Indiana Jones Adventure (Wrath and Frustration)

    Love love love the OP. :D I've been to Disneyland once with my mom in 2003, and I really enjoyed the Indiana Jones ride. I wish that WDW had gotten it instead of Dinosaur (which I think sucks, but oh well). I'm keeping my fingers crossed for down the road, because I need to keep my $70.00...

    first kiss at disney

    You're not the only one... I just kept thinking of the aformentioned commercial with the Disney Cruise kid, and I said to myself "Wait a second... I guess I got a 'souvenir', but it sure wasn't that kind!" Since I haven't posted very much either, I didn't want to be a dork and incorrectly use...

    Upset stomach on holiday advice please

    Imodium (the Advanced formula) is your friend! I've had this problem before, and now I don't travel without this remedy. I'm still trying to figure out my particular trigger, but until that happens I'll just treat the symptoms.

    first kiss at disney

    My "souvenir" from Aladdin at the Magic Kingdom was my second kiss. :)

    Should I book my trip online, by phone or with a travel agent?

    Really? I wish I had known that before my mom and I went in December, because I certainly would have tried KK for our booking. I'd read so many good things about them on these fourms that I wanted to book through them. Maybe I can try them out for our 2009 trip after we've saved a bit more...

    ladies, a question...

    I carry a very small backpack - it probably has the same capacity as the nylon drawstring ones others have mentioned. I use it to hold my cards, a small zip-up bag (to hold hair elastics, wipes, tissues, bandages, lip balm, etc.), my phone, a poncho, a drink bottle, and a not-so-bulky jacket...

    Dining in Japan

    I'm pretty sure that Teppan Edo is the restaurant with the cooking show - my mom and I had lunch there in December. The names of the sit-down and quick-service restaurants are escaping me at the moment...

    Fun On-ride photos

    Man, I wish this thread had been up before I went last month - apparently I'm not bright enough to have been thinking of funny things to do. :D Pretending to be asleep on RnRC... that is priceless! My second ride photo on EE has my mom having the time of her life and me with my eyes shut...

    POR: Mansion section?

    From what I remember, the entire mansion section itself is called Magnolia Bend. I think that Magnolia Terrace (or Oak Manor) would be the closest buildings to the main building, and the bus stop is only a short walk from that. I hope this helps!
