    Would you/do you take your kids out of school

    I have seven children in each level of schooling and make a trek to Disney every three years for one week. We always go to the World the week after Xmas and enjoy every minute of it. We make sure that we give the teachers enough (2 months) advance notice and take any school work with us that...

    Disney Sports Forum (long but possibly relevant to all)

    I think a forum of this nature would be good. People sharing information about a topic in which they have a common interest. As far as calling marathoners zellots, I think you are quite mis-informed. Many of us are people who simply enjoy running as you would anjoy any of your individual...

    WDW Marathon

    I have run this marathon and others many times. This race is one of my favorites. Yes, at times there are boring stretches of road, but what race does not have these. I just focus on my next travels throough a park and have fun. The logistics in my mind are the best. Plenty of water/drinks...

    Running the Disney Marathon

    I am running this January in the marathon. I am doubting my ability to complete in the 7 hour time limit. You said that you ran the first 6 miles and walked the last 20. How did you come in with regard to the time limit? I can run a half marathon but a full I am still doubting. Thanks.:)

    How much do you spend?

    To visit Disney for my wife and our 7 children (all of whom are paying age) we spend approximately $11,000 for a 10 day trip. That includes driving instead of flying from PA. But it is worth every penny to see the kids have fun. It is our families favorite vacation destination. Even when the...

    Best of the All-Stars

    We have stayed on our more recent visits at the A.S. Spots resort. We have visited all three while we have been there and like them all. Since we have such a large family the value resorts are the only way that we are able to stay on property. They have decent service and aminaties(sp?) and for...

    Anyone been to WDW for an extended trip?

    My wife and our 7 kids usually spend 2 weeks there every few years. We take days to just relax by the pool and enjoy the fact that we are at Disney as a family. We often times take in some of the things to do outside of the parks. It is a fun time being there for an extended visit. Go relax and...

    Future World..aka..Discoverland

    It is finally nice to see some changes to Future World. I have been there several times in the recent past and have found the area and the park as a whole lacking somewhat. It is also nice to see that others support this idea as well.
