    We just returned from our February 7th Western Caribbean curies and I wanted to share our wonderful experience on the four elements excursion. The tour starts with a short 30 minute ferry ride across the bay to the mainland where we where met by our tour guide ketzal ( sorry, not sure of the...

    Free Dining for Sept '08

    What I found intresting is that it did not say anything on the flyer about the dining plan change. Do they mention it when you book or do you just get surprised next year.

    Free Dining for Sept '08

    Yes, the flyer did say five days, however based on my experiance that is not a hard rule. We just got back tuesday and took advantage of this years plan. When we booked they where advertising a 5 day package, however we where able to book for only 3 nights.

    [quote=KingofHearts;2445416]Ug. great, now we'll have little brats running around trying to push through lines and stuff just to get "clues". :fork: No it was not like that at all. We where lucky enough to get chosen for the test of the system and most of the clues where off the beaten...

    Disney Packet came in today

    We received our packet a few weeks ago and we are leaving next Saturday for All-star Music, I cant wait. I am really impressed with the way Disney gives you customize service. We also received a personalized letter with suggestions on things we may be interested in. The letter had our names...

    Special Birthday Treatment

    In my opinion, there is no wrong time to get a birthday pin. I really do not think Disney cares, if they did they would ask you for proof. Although some people may abuse it, I think most people are wearing the pin to celebrate a special day belated or not. Go for it! and enjoy the day.

    Does anyone else find the Contemporary DVC odd?

    Last time we visited MK my kids wanted to stop at the contemporary because it has a good arcade. It seemed to me that the hotel is more geared to conventions then the tourist. Is it possible that if they are building another tower they are cashing in on that business and not the DVC. It seems...

    I'm confused, is this or is it not going to be a DVC resort.

    Really, REALLY bad decisions...

    We have stayed at Movies and Pop and will be staying at music next week. We are also a DVC member and have stayed at some of the higher end resorts. I dont know what it is but I really like the all stars. Perhaps it is the food court as you get more counter service choices then say board walk.

    Really, REALLY bad decisions...

    I agree completely with Enderikari summation. Most of the things people mentioned as worst decisions I don't even remember. Although I loved 2K the last time I visited I did not realize it was gone. I think the meals at the Land are some of the best that Disney has to offer and I can't wait...

    Where is the best view of "Wishes"

    Last time we visited we had dinner reservations at narcoosse's at the Grand Floridian and found the view from the restaurant windows to be an excellent spot. They dim the lights and pipe in the wishes music. For us the timing was great we where just finishing up desert and it was the perfect...

    Special Birthday Treatment

    I would certainly agree with expect nothing, but only in so far as wearing your birthday pin. For a young child such as my 8 year old son, I would not leave it to chance. We made arrangements in advance to have a cake delivered to our table, I think they need at least a weeks notice. As I stated...

    What is your best Walt Disney World Tip?

    Most of the snack bars will fill your water bottle with ice and water at no charge. We carry an insulated one and it stays cold for a long time.

    Special Birthday Treatment

    Don't discredit the magic of the Birthday pin. Both my son and I have the same birthday and when we visited last year, it was during our birthday. Lots of people wished us a happy b-day and we even met a mother and daughter who had the same b-day. By the end of the day my son asked if he could...

    Sci-Fi Dine-In...tell me about it...

    Every time we visit Disney, the kids want to go to sci-fi. The food is ok and the atmosphere is great. Our favorite is bomas and I would rate 50's primetime higher then sci-fi. Defiantly try it!

    Got some good "jerk parents" stories?

    To me meaningful meant that they would remember. So I guess the question should be at what age is it meaningful and what is meaningful to you.

    Got some good "jerk parents" stories?

    Thanks for the clarification. I guess you just never know at what age your kids might or might not remember an experience. I would be interested in knowing what other people think a meaningful age is
