    Grand Floridian

    we stayed there this past January, and loved every minute of it. Nothing is stuffy if you work hard and deserve a vacation. I do not know why people consider it to be stuffy, and that only the rich stay there. When we booked, all the deluxe hotels were about the same price. We stayed...

    Whats a more impressive nighttime show: Fantasmic Or Illuminations

    Never saw fantasmic Illuminations put both me and my husband and kids asleep. We walked out. We were standing there watching this globe move and turn and did nothing for me. Give me Wishes any day! But thats just my 2 cents.

    Cash Question

    Go to your bank and instead of getting AmEx checques, get the gift card. That is what we just did. It was fabulous and the best part was the bank told me not to sign it, this way both my husband and I can use it. No one ever looked at the signature! That was the best part. when we...

    Snacks

    We stayed at GF last month, and we went to the cafeteria there and purchased many things from our snack plan that were under $4. I.e. danishes, cookies, rice krispie treats, chips, etc. We stayed club level, so we used teh concierge food as our breakfast which was a saver!

    Downtown Disney and the Dining Plan

    We ate at Capn Jacks 2 weeks ago and it was good. The service was a bit slow, but we were thrilled cuz you got to choose a lobster tail as a side dish, or you could order the twin lobster tails and still get the lobster tail as a side dish for a total of 3 lobster tails. And this was all on the...

    Coral Reef Restaurant

    We both ordered the steak 2 weeks ago, and it was fabulous. The appetizer did nothing for me, reminded me of cat food, unfortunately I cannot remember the name, it was in the shape of cat food too that just came out of the can! Yuck. Dessert was good too, chocolate lava cake. We found it to...

    Abit confused.

    The onlytime I had to give a credit card was for the Poly luau. So maybe they just need the credit card for 2 point ressies. They never charged the credit card, it just holds the ressie in case you do not show up.

    Another dining plan question

    We just used the DDP in Jan 2007, and had 2 kids on the plan. the fries are listed on the counter service menus when you get there, very fine print, but it is listed. Do not even ask them, just tell them, cuz that is what the menu says. I have heard on a nother post that if you ask they may...

    Dining Plan Restrictions?? Does anyone know?

    Just wanted to let you know that at Captain Jacks, the addition of a lobster tail was included in the dining plan, as we all did just that and enjoyed! But I am unable to verify your question. We were never told of any restrictions when we went to eat either CS or TS.

    When to go?

    NOW! we just got back 2 days ago, and it was perfect! We walked on most rides, longest wait was 10 mins top! We both agreed that despite the weather, it is worth going this time of year. You just have to remember to pack all sorts of clothing for different temperatures. And that there may a...

    ? about carry on luggage and check in

    Good idea Tiggerfanatic! Our room was already ready, so we just went straight to the room and did not have to worry about them once we arrived at the hotel.

    ? about carry on luggage and check in

    Usually people bring a carry on bag to protect themselves from the ME. Most of the time your luggage will not arrive until a bit later; therefore, it is sometimes necessary to have a carry on bag with some shorts, t-shirt, bathing suit, underduds (just in case), etc. We did this, and it was...

    Resort for my kids and my parents

    If its the parents 40th anniversary, I say go for the GF. Like other posters said, the kids are young enough that as long as they are Disney it won't matter. They have a mousketeer club there and a game room. They have a slide in the pool, with 2 pools. It is not at all just for adults. We...

    Dining Plan - Why is it a deal?

    Seeing as how I just got back and utilized the DP, I have to put in my 2 cents worth. Both my husband and I made out very well on this, well the kids did too, although they got bored with the options (thats another topic). Let me tell you that at our sit down meals, our receipt was no less...

    Kids Menus

    Arequipa, I couldnt agree more with you. You nailed it! We just got back, too, and I agree fully with what you said. HOw unfair for the kids, huh, and this is the impression they are to have with Disney. I hope they can fix this problem. And really, we never once saw a hamburger on the kids...

    Wyland Gallery at Polynesian Resort

    I have to tell you that I saw the exact same scene, curtains, window overlooking a tropical beach with a plam tree, in a picture that I purchased for my husband, but this was not just any picture, it was a motion and sound picture. I know this does not help you, other than to let you know that...

    Dining Plan and kids

    One more thing..... Go for the buffets - the kids can have anything they want! Thank God for this, my kids actually late last week. The sugar free jello, I agree, is a poor choice. My kids said sugar free chocolate pudding would have been better, dont you agree? At least, that has some...

    Dining Plan credits all on one key?

    we just got back, and Suzie is correct, all can be accessible from one card. However, not the same is true for entry into the park.
