Has anyone been to MK recently that can tell me if the purple gypsy-style cart outside the Haunted Mansion exit is still there? The area is scrimmed off for the skyway work. We were hoping to buy the Haunted Mansion cd when we go in May and this is the only location I've found that carries it...

The banana bread pudding is amazing! Last time we got it they didn't even charge us on the DDP to make it a la mode! :sohappy:

Thanks everyone for the input. We have decided against it since it just seems too risky. The good part is, we're forcing ourselves to take a trip to the World to use the points up ourselves! :sohappy:

We are considering using a rental service to unload some points but are wary of it costing us more in the long run. Does anyone know who is responsible if a room is damaged or items are missing from the room after check-out? Is it the guest who has shown i.d. at check-in or the DVC member...

Thanks for the update! Can someone tell me what I'm looking at in photos 20 (to the right of the two tents) and 21 behind the speedway? Is that the train station?

We'll be there for our first holiday time trip also. We plan on being everywhere but MK on taping days, with the exception of MVMCP on 12/4. I assume the other parks will be a little busier than usual, simply from other folks trying to avoid going to MK that day also. :shrug:

Was anything mentioned about the "Kingdom Keepers" series of books? The idea behind them was good (the parks being "alive" after closing) but they're pretty awful reading.

Belle's cottage is reeeeeally yellow!

I agree...I'd like to see something swim by or suddenly peer out one of the portholes!

We are planning our first xmas trip to the world and I'm wondering if any particular DVC resort has really spectacular decorations. It seems like they're all decorated nicely. Anyone have any opinions on one that really stands out?

We have always gotten Traveler's Checks in the past. Then for the last trip we decided to avoid the hassle and use a debit/credit card. We just notified our bank ahead of time that we were going on vacation from this date to that date, so they wouldn't think it was suspicious activity and deny...

Look before you enter As someone who works in the housing industry, I have more knowledge about bedbugs than I'd like to. Each time we stay at WDW, I enter our room and check the top of the bed all around the headboard (where they typically like to hang out) and the seams of the mattresses for...

We also bring home as much hotel soap as possible. That way if one of us is having a bad day I can just replace our regular soap with a Mickey soap. Guaranteed to bring back vacation memories and create smiles in the tub! I also love the smells walking through the Pirates queue, standing...

Excellent! Thank you!

I know there are plenty of Disney and Disney Parks apps for the iPhone, but does anyone know of any good Disney applications for phones running on android? I've found a few kiddie ones (puzzles/games) and some basic WDW park maps but nothing that covers wait times, weather, crowds, downed rides...

DH and I were told by a DVC employee this past March to make sure we saw CoP one last time while we were there, as it would almost certainly be gone the next time we visited (we go every 2 yrs). We always make a point to see it anyway. Vague reference, to space being used for thrill ride, was made.

any idea if the same goes for DVC resorts?

Well said. As someone who works in the housing industry, I've seen bedbugs become a huge issue, in rental housing over the last year especially, in New England. They require constant high heat for a period of time and simply run away from sprays into neighboring units, rooms, etc...into...
