    Tusker House Music

    I was walking by Tusker House tonight after they had closed. I could have sworn that I was hearing "Sweet Lullaby", at least the vocal recording, by Deep Forest. By the time I got closer it had stopped. It was very subtle. Has anyone else heard this, or is this just another one of my imaginations?

    Tusker House in May

    We did manage to get an ADR. Personally I was not impressed. Been several years since I ate there (in fact I think before they had the Characters), but I remember the food being a lot better. It could also have just been an off day.

    First time traveling with 2 people using ECVs and I have questions!

    Figured I would give a bit of a trip report as we ended renting two scooters. We rented through Buena Vista, the smallest, "portable" models. They seemed to be new when we got them from Guest Services. We did try to take them apart to get them in the SUV, but couldn't figure out how to get the...

    Alamo Premium Crossover selection at MCO

    I rented one this past weekend, we got a QX60. They don't have an aisle for the premium crossovers, so only have a few to offer. They can find you something that fits your needs, though. It seems they are still in the same "take what you want" type of mode there. I don't think they can keep up...

    Tractor Museum in Leesburg

    So.... Wow, I didn't know there were that many tractors in the world! He had two full metal buildings of them, more outside, and a couple of workshops. We went on a Saturday morning, I think we got there about 9:30? we were the only ones there. We got a personal tour (golf cart transportation...

    This is not going well...

    Thanks everyone. Yeah, this thread was really my way of getting out all the frustrations of the day. Glad people found the humor in it. fortunately the trip home went find. Everyone was separated enough on the plane that they couldn't cause any harm to anyone. And outside of my aunt trying to...

    This is not going well...

    I am just going to consider this trip as a write-off. Typing this out has been therapeutic because I am now simply thinking of it as a comedy. Thank God we fly home tomorrow. Today we went to the Animal Kingdom. For a while anyways. We got a late start because my cousin and uncle were watching...

    This is not going well...

    It's even better. Like I said the three of them can't hear, and refuse to turn up their hearing aids. They bicker because the three of them aren't even talking about the same subject!

    This is not going well...

    I'm not sure that things went a little better today than that I was a little more prepared for what to expect. We adjusted the seating this morning to separate people better (70 year olds, 5 year olds, little difference). That helped a little bit with the car ride. This morning we headed up to...

    This is not going well...

    Back in early December I had a little extra unexpected money in the budget. I somehow got the idea in my head that my father and aunts, who absolutely love sitting outside and watching the animals, would enjoy a quick trip to the Animal Kingdom. At first my father was dead set against the idea -...

    AKL - Kidani Village Vacuum Cleaner Question

    I have an oddball question - the vacuum cleaners in Kidani Village ( 2 bedrooms, if that matters) - do they have a hose attachment? I ask because I use space bags to pack more into my luggage, and having a vacuum with a hose makes taking the air out much easier. I have bags that work without...

    Super last minute

    That's the give and take of last minute travel. Sometimes they end up falling apart. Then again, sometimes you can get some great trips and prices by planning last minute travel. Don't give up on it!

    MCO to Disney with rental car, Quickest place to stop for drinks/snacks

    Saratoga Springs is nearest the Apopka/Vineland Rd entrance. Ton of stuff around there - there's a Gooding's in the plaza across the street that will give you the best selection (it is really a small grocery store). There's a few convenience stores along that stretch, too. If you are willing to...

    No Rivers of Light on Mother's Day?

    Is it just not showing up in the schedule because it is already booked, or are there really no Rivers of Light shows May 13th?

    Rivers of light wheelchair/ECV access

    Is there a place to park ECVs? We will have two, though the people using them can walk shorter distances. It would be easier for them to just park the ECV near an entrance and walk to the seats.

    MCO to Disney with rental car, Quickest place to stop for drinks/snacks

    Where are you going and which way are you getting there? Tons of options, but would need to know which route you are taking first.

    Tusker House in May

    Yes, the 13th, not the 12th. Shoot, forgot about that. Frankly we will probably end up doing fast food or just leaving the park in that case. Oh for the days when Disney Dining was manageable!

    Super last minute

    That's last minute? When I am by myself that is pretty advanced planning for me. Airfare is the hard part last minute. Hotels tend to be better last minute unless you are at a busy time, as they are trying to sell empty rooms. Your best prices will always be through the hotel website. What I...

    Tusker House in May

    Will be in the Animal Kingdom next Sunday (the 12th of May). We don't have any dining reservations for that day. How is the crowd level for Tusker House for lunch during this period? There are no advanced reservations left, but I was wondering if it is even worth it to check on a standby for...
