Hi folks, I wanted to share a Disney travel journal I made for my last trip. I used this as a place to write notes in, and later I will create a scrapbook. In the past, I would simply scrapbook my trips. However, time is not always on my side, and I found myself forgetting what we did on which...

Hello, I thought I heard somewhere (it may have been a podcast) about a gift card deal for Food and Wine Festival. If I purchased a certain amount while at WDW, I would get an extra amount put on the gift card. I have found that with a $200 gift card there is a lanyard and metal. I have...

Just wondering if you have had an in-room celebration for a birthday. My brother will be turning 30. It would be perfect if WDW delivered alcohol to rooms instead of popcorn and cake. Has anyone had an in-room celebration? Was it worth the expense?

Hello friends, What is your take on the GF Club Level. Right now I can pay a little bit more and secure a Sugar Loaf room. Is it worth the extra $500 for my trip? If so, tell me what you like and dislike. I like to hear all opinions!

Hello fellow WDW lovers. I have been to WDW over 25 times and have stayed at either a MK resort or Port Orleans. This trip, due to pricing, we were thinking of staying at the Boardwalk Inn. I'm afraid to push the button. I'm still wavering between the MK resorts and the Boardwalk Inn. Part of...

What hotel has the best concierge: Contemporary, Polynesian or Grand Floridian? Why?

Hello, I typically book a package, but this year I booked under a "room only". Now that I'm about 11 days out from my vacation, my party suddenly is considering a "package" for the food plan. The money is not the issue (I know that if I change to a package all the money is due). My question is...

Hello! I'm considering purchasing the annual pass. I currently have a room only reservation for August 2 - 8 in the Contemporary. I reviewed the discounts offered for dining and merchandise. However, I would like to know what the current promotion "Passholders: Enjoy this cool summer offer" is...

Hi folks, This may be a silly question to ask, but can anyone tell me what toiletries are currently provided in the rooms of the Contemporary? I will be staying for a week in the Garden Wing and if I can get away with not having to pack my own shampoo and conditioner, etc., that would be...

Hello, This is the first time I have made a "room only" reservation. In the past, I was able to book a package and pay off my balance prior to arrival. I use Disney gift cards to save myself some money. However, with the room only reservation, I cannot pay off my balance until I arrive at the...

My brother and I have been scheming for quite some time to do something for my parents. The past few years have been really tough on my parents and for them, taking a trip to WDW will never happen again..or so they think!!! My brother and I have been saving for awhile and doing without to make a...

When checking in this morning at Coronado, the cast member brought up our reservation and I knew something was up because her face turned and she called over the supervisor/manager. The cm pointed at the computer and told the manageer to 'look' at whatever was written on the computer. The...

Some of you may well have found this long before me, but here's some music for your enjoyment. http://youtu.be/NRFM7tZZOk0

For the first time we're staying in Port Orleans French Quarter for 9 nights, 10 days. I've read some about it, but do you have anything else to share? Also, should I request staying in a particular area (numbered building) or just let them choose. Any of your suggestions or "beware!!" would...

I just returned from a 12 day trip to WDW. In the following days, I will provide a full trip report. However, for now I would like to ask this question--have you seen a decrease in how the monorail has been running? I stayed in both the Contemporary and the Polynesian for the duration of...

I originally booked my Disney vacation with a dining pin code. I upgraded to the dining plan (as opposed to the QS pin I was given), and then upgraded again to the deluxe dining plan. I thought I was getting a good deal. Then I decided to switch my hotel (from PO to the Contemporary). When I...

Does anyone know if The Darkroom sells cameras other than Kodak (such as Nikon or Canon)? Also, are there any other shops on property that sell cameras?

I'm not sure if I'm using the correct wordage. Also, this will be my first time using the dining plan. I really want to get the most out of it I can. Are all restaurants worth one dining credit? I thought that I heard/read somewhere that Cinderella's Royal Table is two dining credits. Are...

I have stayed at Riverside a few times, and have enjoyed the time I have spent. But, since I've stayed at Riverside, something keeps telling me to look into possibly staying at the French Quarter instead. I don't know if I should go with the "same" or totally mix things up and go with a...

Does the Quick Service Dining Plan run on "credits" as well (like I've read about in the other dining plans)? So, if I wanted three meals in one day (for an EMH night) I could do so, since the plan runs on credit allotments? Also, have you used the QS Dining Plan? How did that work out for...
