    Help from Car Renters?

    There is also an Alamo at the Buena Vista Palace Resort and Spa. The resort is just across the street from Disney Springs and is a quick walk from SSR. It is pretty much a self-serve kiosk, but when I've used them they were cheaper than the Car Care Center.

    First Cruise. Non Disney. Nassau Excursions.

    I might also suggest that you check out cruisecritic.com. There are forums for destinations, Cruise lines, just about anything that you can think of. Since this will be you first cruise, see if there is a "Meet & Mingle" set up for your cruise. Its a great way to meet your fellow cruisers, and...

    Is the Dream going out today?

    Wow, we were on the Member's cruise that left on 1/10 and we didn't set sail until 6:15. We had to wait for passengers that were delayed at the airport. There were only 4 of us still on deck when we finally got under way, but we waved at all the people in Fishlips for everyone onboard.

    Pool Towels???

    This is actually true, well partially true. Now we haven't stayed at every DVC resort, but we have checked out the pools everywhere but Beach Club. There are racks with pool towels at each pool at each resort, EXCEPT Vero Beach (don't know about Hilton Head). Pool towels are placed in each villa...

    WDW 2012 Fashion Critique For Men

    Well until Disney brings back the WDW hockey jersey, I will continue to wear my 2007 WDW hockey jersey when I go down in January. In addition to the numerous compliments that I get on it, my jerseys is much more comfortable than a sweatshirt. It breathes so it isn't too hot during the day but is...

    Monsters, Inc. Hollywood Studios rumor

    It's not that TDO doesn't want to spend the money, you have to remember that Disney is a publicly traded company and therefore is beholden to their stockholders. As fans of WDW we often forget that Disney's first responsibility is to keep the stockholder happy, the consumer is secondary. And its...

    Restaurants missing from 2013 DDP?

    We're going on the DVC Members cruise in January 2013 and are going to be staying at Pop the night before. We were thinking about using the DDP to cover dinner Wednesday night and breakfast before leaving for the port. However, when we checked the 2013 DDP brochure, many of the restaurants in...

    CoP Continuity Problems

    I wish that WDW would fix the huge gaffe in the beginning of the second act. Father talks about all the new electric inventions that they have and then states that some guy named Lindbergh is going to fly a single wing airplane across the Atlantic. This is happening as the family prepares for...

    Saratoga Springs Tips??

    That's why the quiet pool at the Paddock is being replaced with a new theme pool and quick service restaurant. There are some artist concept drawings on here as well as other sites, including Disney's.

    Grills in the villas?

    SSR also has grills, they are located near the quiet pools and near the Carousel, although with the construction on the new theme pool at the Paddock I;m not sure where those grills are now. While not at WDW, Vero Beach also has grills, which are located across US1 from the resort.

    Saratoga Springs Tips??

    I'd also have to choose Congress Park. We've stayed at SSR 5 times since June 2007 and all but one time have been in Congress Park. The quiet pool has a great view of DTD. I would however avoid the 1101-1436 villas, while they are the closest to DTD, they are also next to the nature trails, and...

    Shopping/supplies in Vero Beach

    We just stayed at Vero Beach back in February, and while the Publix on ! is very close to the resort, the store is rather old and is on the small side. We found the Publix on Rte 58 at Rte 60 to be a mush nicer store. Its larger and carries a better selection. The Indian River Mall is just a...
