    GPS Tracker

    Has anyone used any sort of GPS enabled device (other than a cellphone) to create a GPS track of your day in a park? Whenever we visit WDW, we always do up a daily journal to recap what we did and sometimes even a few hours later forget what order we did stuff. So I thought doing a GPS track...

    Activating Magic Band in park

    Hi All, I have some magic bands that a friend picked for me at the MK a few weeks ago for my trip next month. I'm staying offsite and thought I'd give them a try. Now that I have park passes purchased and linked to my MDE account I tried to link the 3 bands to my account but all 3 came back...

    Linked Magic Band... still use ticket?

    So we're headed to WDW in January, staying offsite. I thought about picking up some magic bands to give the system a try (to the extent an offsite guest can; entry, FP+ and photos). Once we linked our purchased park tickets (from Undercover Tourist) to a Magic Band, can we still use the...

    New Website... Where's the Rooms?

    So this morning I thought I'd hop on the WDW site and see what room rates are looking like for our trip next month. Just to compare to our current offsite hotel. But weirdly... the website is returning "No rooms available" at every single resort. Even the Monorail line resorts list nothing...

    Which Format? 24P? 30P?

    Hi all, I currently have a Sony HDC camcorder that records to tape. Love the camera but the hardware is slowly dying after a few years of (ab)use. :) So I've been looking at upgrading to a new camera and making the jump to digital media. I've kinda settled on the Canon Vixia HF M50...

    Where did I take this photo?

    Ok super sleuths, I need your help. I have this photo from my 2003 WDW vacation, but I'm not sure what it is. I know it is in Epcot because the image number falls between a photo of us in Innoventions and being in the Monorail leaving the Epcot station. The first thing that always pops in...

    Diamond Horseshoe - Open for lunch Labor Day?

    Hey folks, Going to WDW this weekend and was wondering if anyone knew if the Diamond Horseshoe is currently open for lunch or not? I read it usually is for peak seasons, but wasn't sure if this weekend still falls into that category. Thanks!

    Grand Floridian - Where are the lagoon view rooms

    Hi all, Does anybody know which buildings have rooms classified as "lagoon view"? Back in 2003, we stayed the GF in a lagoon view which was in the Big Pine Key building facing the Poly. I plan on requesting Big Pine or Boca Chica, but mainly curious if Sago Cay, Conch Key, or Sugar Loaf Key...

    Does the pin code happy dance

    3 days ago I booked a garden view room at the Polynesian with free dining for November. My wife and I have always wanted to stay there (and it's a birthday surprise for her. She thinks we're staying off ground, teehee). Then today I get my first ever pin code in the mail. I called up Disney...

    Book a package - Can tickets be mailed early?

    Before I give Disney a call about this, thought I'd ask here first. The short version: If you book a Disney Vacation package online can you get the theme park tickets sent to you early as normal paper tickets (and then later added to your cards), or must you check-in first? The Long...

    High chairs at the Resort

    My wife and I are planning a trip in October with our daughter (who will be 20 months) and will be staying at the Boardwalk Villas. One thing she was curious about was if the Boardwalk resort has high chairs available for in-room use. I know the villas offer a pack-n-plays, but wasn't sure...

    Hi all, Playing around with the idea of surprising the wife with a mid-week trip to Disneyland in October.. We've never been to Disneyland, so it's all new territory for us. I understand the Halloween season kicks off on Sept 26, and thought it would be a neat time to go for our first trip to...

    Disney Visa & paying for resorts

    So I've been looking into getting a Disney Visa lately and have a question about redeeming rewards. I've seen a lot of posts about being able to redeem points for food, merchandise, meet&greets. etc... but what about resorts at WDW? It might be 3-4 years before our next trip to the WDW, so...

    I posted a video to my gallery of Spaceship Earth filmed on December 29, 2007. It includes the latest changes to the end of the ride where your face gets super-imposed on the video. That's probably the only difference from previous clips I think...
