    Guests of Resort Guests Parking at Hotel

    I have a feeling this is going to be controversial... been here long enough to know! Haha So... next week we'll be staying at POFQ. My cousin and her kids who live in Tampa will be visiting us in WDW for one day during our stay. We were hoping to use our hotel room as a "base" for the day, ie...

    WiFi in-room

    So how's the in-room wifi? I haven't been to WDW since 2008, and even then that was the Dolphin so the internet situation was different. I know that at the WDW resorts there was an ethernet cable and you had to pay $10/day, so I was pleasantly surprised to hear that WDW now has free wifi like...

    May 17-28 - AKL & Poly

    Just got back from an 11 night stay split between the Animal Kingdom Lodge and the Polynesian. AKL: requested a room close to the food court; got a room that was a hike and a half from anything, but thankfully on the lobby floor. Our room was on Kudu Trail and overlooked the savanna with the...

    Wilderness Lodge Villas (Studio) "Newbie Questions"

    We are staying at the VWL for the first time in May. We aren't DVC members, but we are APs, and this was all we could get that was to our liking with the AP discount. We've stayed at the WL proper before, but never the villas. We have reserved a studio and I'm going to be sleeping on the pullout...

    Kind of Scared Right Now

    I'm kind of freaked out right now. Tuesday night I woke up from a nap feeling achey, with a headache, and a sore throat. I finally decided that I just had a bug and by sometime Wednesday I was fine. Now it's Friday night and my throat feels really weird. It doesn't *hurt* like when you...

    Disneyland - Fall 2006!!

    I'm planning a tentative trip to Disneyland sometime in late October to late November this year. I have some questions. Haunted Mansion Holiday - overlay for Christmas? When does that go up? I don't want to be there when HM is closed. It's A Small World Holiday - again, I don't want to be...

    06.04.06 Update

    Hello from the Wilderness Lodge. We are in a great rehabbed woods view room on the fourth floor (4016). We have a great view of the castle, though you can't actually see it in this picture because of the sun. And here is the carpet in the hallway of rehabbed floors...

    iBook & Internet Access at WL

    I'm leaving on Friday for ten fabulous days at the Wilderness Lodge. I've decided to bring my iBook along to write my trip report since writing it by hand gets boring and I forget mostly everything by the time I get home if I don't write it down. It would be an added bonus to be able to go on...

    EPCOT Center symbol

    You know the EPCOT Center symbol, the one that looks like an atom or a flower with a globe in the middle? What does that stand for? I seem to remember reading somewhere a long while back that it had something to do with unity and other good stuffs. I was just wondering if anyone had a definitive...

    December 18-29

    I just got back from an 11 night vacation at Riverside (will always be Dixie Landings to me). December 18-23: Not too bad. Pretty cold at night but the crowds weren't too bad. December 24-29: Horrendous crowds. Will not do Disney World between Christmas and New Year's ever again...

    Leaving on a jet plane...

    It's 8:00a and my flight leaves at 11:30a. I'm going to Disney World! I spent a couple of hours last night crying because I'm going to miss my boyfriend so much. For the past four months I've spent all my time with him and now all of a sudden I won't see him for two weeks. I know it will be...

    My New Car

    This is my old 1996 Mercedes C220. I hit a deer. The deer was killed and my car was totalled. It really doesn't look that bad but the insurance man said he got up to $6500 in damages and then totalled it. This is my new 2001 Ford Taurus SES Wagon. I love it. Yes, I picked out a...

    Independence Air to cease service from Stewart-Newburgh in October

    I love Orange County so much. For those of you who didn't read The Record this morning, FlyI is ceasing flights from Stewart in October. A full refund is available or airline credit. This leaves us with only brand new Allegiant Air to fly to Florida from Stewart. This sucks. Allegiant has no...

    My New Disneyfied Cell Phone

    I'm so excited because we finally got GSM after all these years of being stuck on TDMA. We used to have this awesome plan that we got four years ago in which we had 3000 anytime minutes, 3000 night & weekend minutes, and partner lines were only $10 each. But my phone recently started acting up...
