    Funniest Moments You've Had wit the Characters.

    Fun with the Characters Well, my funniest moment was not technically with the real Disney Characters. We went to MNSSHP the last time Halloween was on a Friday. We actually went on October 30 and the park was empty. Anyway, as we walked around the park, several guests were in Disney...

    What is the math on DVC? Why does it work?

    DVC Makes Sense My wife and I have been members since 2000. We have bought additional points and now own at Vero, Saratoga Springs and AK Lodge. We just came back from Europe and went on the 10-day Disney Magic Mediterranean Cruise. Cost of cruise for 5 people in 2 category 10 staterooms -...

    Vacation Club

    If you like Disney, it is well worth it. Most will say it is not, however, we have found that the average trip costs only a fraction when you spread the cost of the membership over the entire owendership. We are using our points to go on the European cruise next summer. By my calcualtions...

    How Often

    Being that we live only 1 hour away, we visit WDW about twice a month (at least) and more often in the summer when the kids are out of school. It is nice with an annual pass to just go over in the evening for a few hours like we did last weekend.

    The Wait Before Fantasmic!

    One time while waiting for the show, I used a Skyliner that a CM let me borrow and swung it around while it said "Buy Me!" In the process, she sold about a dozen of them and gave me a second one to use (I had to give them back). This one I made say "Look ma, I can make words." :lol:

    When is the BEST time to go to WDW?

    Disclaimer: Please do not take this the wrong way: The Saturday after a huge terrorist attack in the US. We went and the Magic Kingdom was like a ghost town. There were less than 10 people on Main Street, USA with us. It was eerie and weird. (We remember those who lost their lives)...

    American Adventure (can you tell this is my favorite?): Mark Twain (Quoting Thomas Wolfe): "We now face the danger that in the past has been the most destructive to the humans; plenty, success, comfort, and every increasing leisure. No dynamic people have ever survived these dangers." How...

    What single animatronic (past or present) would you love to have in your living room?

    My Anamatronic 1st Choice - Chief Joseph from The American Adventure. He is still the most realistic anamatronic ever created. I recently took my 8th grade students and sat them in the 2nd row (higher for better viewing) and one kid asked me if that indian guy was real. 2nd Choice - Will...

    Saratoga Springs Update

    We own there too (in addition to Vero) and loved it when we stayed there last summer. Same large resort feel as OKW, but I like it a whole lot better than OKW.

    Disney World's 35th Celebration

    Not sure how many of you are old enough to remember, but WDW had a huge celebration for its 15th! "Fifteen years, we're having a party!" And they gave away 15 free trips on the Disney Channel. I remember wanting to win one soooooo bad. Anyway, if a "new celebration" will bring new...

    Who's been on a Disney Cruise?

    Been on the 3 Day Wonder Cruise 3 times and it is the best. I have been on Carnival, Celebrity, and a few other "small" cruise lines and none of them compare. The only gripe I have is that Disney's prices have skyrocketed. A week in 2004 for my family of 4 was 3000. This next year it will be...

    Disney Love

    Love My wife and I are Disney Fanatics and met because my username on our UF "mail" system (back in 1994) was MickeyMouse. Our first date was to see the Lion King, and our second date was to Pleasure Island.

    Disney/MGM Studios crowds - Sat, Dec 11

    MGM a madhouse We stayed at the BCV and decided to take the boat to MGM. Big mistake! We waited for almost 45 minutes for a boat and then took another 15 minutes to get to the park. We then had lines past the Christmas Tree. We took almost another hour to get in the park. When we finally...

    A funny thing happened to me on the DVC tour...

    Dvc OK, as a DVC member since 2000 - NO, it is not for everyone. Yes, it has saved me money and allowed me to take vacations I could never have taken without it. Yes, it reverts back to Disney, but the way I use it, I will get all of my money's worth and then some. The rooms -...

    A funny thing happened to me on the DVC tour...

    DVC pays for itself Well, we are DVC members and have found it pays for itself in many ways. We wanted to vacation often and can. I love being able to cook in my room because it saves me money. 3 meals a day at Disney for a family of 4 can cost you $$$$$$$$$$$$$. One other side note that...
