    AP holders, MNNSHP, and parking...

    I'm pretty sure as Annual Passholders, we had to pay for parking one year when we arrived after the 7 o'clock party start. However, last year we arrived earlier and did not have to pay. I think it is all in the timing.

    Has anyone's daughter been picked to be the special Cinderella yet?

    My daughter, sister to 3 brothers, would be thrilled to death if she were picked to be a princess. After all these years of living with boys, she would so revel in it! But would I mention it to her? No. It should be a part of the Disney "magic"....that unexpected pixie dust that you receive...

    Anyone tried 3 park hopping?

    My husband and I actually did 4 parks in one day....but that was in the summer, with longer hours. We were exhausted at the end of the day, but had a blast! Here's how we did it (and we drove our own car, except where noted): Early breakfast @ MK, Crystal Palace (before park opened) ~ rode...

    Is This Trip Really Special For Anyone?

    Life is too short, so don't let it pass you by. I realized that when my father passed away suddenly and violently at the age of 50....I was 32, and hadn't had nearly enough time to know him as an adult. I was comforted by the knowledge that we had a good relationship, saw each other often...

    when you type

    I use Microsoft Excel. I create a spreadsheet for the days we are in the parks, with a column for each day. In each column, I'll denote EMH, AR confirmation #s, and color code the parks we are in. I carry this sheet with me, and we all can see at a glance what the day's "outline" is. I've...

    Just how bad is the "new" Garden Grill???

    As annual passholders, my husband and I have visited WDW often in the last couple of years. One of our absolute favorites used to be Garden Grill, and we ALWAYS made a point to eat there each trip. We felt the food was always delicious and homey (consistantly one of the BEST meals we always...

    What do you collect?

    Mr. Potatohead parts...we always must visit Once Upon a Toy Store and MouseGears to look for the latest. I also collect anything I can put into my scrapbook...coasters from the resort, photo claim tickets, those picks that spear lemons for your tea at the restaurants, confetti from special...

    Anyone else getting close to leaving!!!

    hey, there! Yes, it looks like we have a little in commom (well, maybe four). Our kids range in age from 11 - 4. The first time we took them on a vacation to Disney was an experience...the trip alone through the airport was a riot! The hardest part I have found traveling with that many kids...

    When is the best time to go for the least crowds

    I took my mother the first week of February this year. Crowds were low. Be prepared for any kind of weather. I live in Kansas and left 8 inches of snow behind me....but found the temperature to feel quite chilly at some points while in Florida. I don't know if it is the humidity in the air...

    Ever Done All 4 Parks in One Day? We DID! 10/16

    I can say I HAVE done all four parks in one day....however, I was with my husband and we didn't have the kids with us. It was something I've always wanted to do. We were dog tired at the end of the day, and the Jacuzzi tub never felt so good! It was a LOT of fun though :) .

    Buying AP at airport

    We have purchased Annual Passes at the Disney Earport at MCO in the past. If I remember correctly, we did pass by the store on our way to baggage claim. We flew Southwest into Terminal A. But don't worry, there should be maps that can direct you to the correct location! :wave2:

    overplanning?

    I think research is also the key here. Find out as much as you can about different strategies, etc. (for example...what rides are fast loading vs. slow loading, which rides to grab a fast pass for and take in other attractions while you wait). This gives you knowledge and can prepare you to...

    One day of Park Hopping

    My husband and I did all four parks in one day last July and it was a blast! I would never try it with kids, but for just the two of us it was so much fun. If you are ambitious, here's what worked for us: *EE at park #1 *lunch and early afternoon at park #2 *late afternoon at park #3...
