    CSR - Accessable Room ?

    Yes, they have updated the moderate resorts. I know there are photos of POFQ and POR's rooms with roll-in-showers showing two beds. I have a friend who has stayed in one of the POFQ rooms using a manual w/c and had no problems getting around in the room.

    Total Knee replacement-bad back...? for DL

    I hope you feel better! Does your physician think your condition will improve on it's own or will you require more surgery? Having your leg go out and falling does NOT sound like a fun experience and indeed there is alot of walking at DL and DCA even though it's much smaller than WDW. Is there a...

    My journey has ended with my mom and Alzheimer

    Oh Bete- I am SO sorry for your loss. You took such good care of your Mom and made sure she was comfortable and had trips to enjoy. Not many children can say they've done the same for their elderly parent(s). I know it must be so hard now, to not see her anymore or to be able to plan something...

    Dad refuses to allow his daugher a Make a Wish trip?

    So did she get the money from MAW for the trip or is she using the over 10K she has received in donations, or is she using the over 10K as a downpayment on a home in Orlando? I don't care what she got or how she's using it, but something smells funny. I just hope this little 4 year old gets her...

    Can I park at Target?

    IMO there's nothing wrong with the OP's initial question. Perhaps people who have stayed at one of those nearby resorts have parked at Target with no problem. Sounds like it's not a good idea and advice was taken. I also like to see what fees are being charged and if it's possible to do...

    Little Brazil

    We ran into one of the groups two week ago while shopping at the exit of the Princess meet and greet on Main Street. While yes, they were herded into a small area, they were just genuinely excited to see and try on some of the merchandise ( hats, for instance). They had several chaperones with...

    Please pray for my wife

    Just found your post and am so sorry to read that Gayle passed away a few weeks ago. I can't imagine your grief as you cope with your loss while trying to be the best Dad possible to your four children. As time moves forward, I hope you can think of things to do to remember her and the happy...

    Cancer sucks.

    Yes, cancer sucks...BIG TIME! After having no symptoms, I was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer last August and told the most time I had was 24-28 months. That's how long they can keep the tumors from progressing to buy me some time. It sounds like they've been buying your MIL time and now...

    Dad refuses to allow his daugher a Make a Wish trip?

    Our local news reported live on this story and noted that the family has raised over 10K. As I mentioned above, this is more than most would get for a MAW trip. Of course they will likely not be staying at GKTW if they're not on a designated trip.

    GF for $169/night

    Early December is low crowds too and they'll be filming the Christmas parade that first week, although it makes the MK a madhouse. I live in Central Florida and don't visit the resorts or parks in September. I really can't stand the heat and humidity. Would you regret missing out on WL in...

    surprises you can order from room service at deluxes

    While there may be other offerings, I have stayed CL at both resorts and the chocolate animals are only offered at AKL due to the theming of the resort. Not sure about the chocolate covered strawberries but you can certainly ask the concierge or room service and there should be a menu in the...

    Limit on number of fellow travelers?

    We traveled in early March with 11 people and split up on the attractions, usually with all of them going through the regular line as there are many things I can't access with a power wheelchair. If I was also riding then we took the max of 6 with me and the others went through the regular line...

    Dad refuses to allow his daugher a Make a Wish trip?

    So....they have an out of state agency offering to pay for the trip PLUS they raised enough money to go on their own? Sounds like they have more than most people get for a Wish trip already.

    Question about annual pass room discount

    I have gotten offers for other family members who don't live with me, for people I don't know, and for my dog. Yeah....challenged is a good word, lol.

    Favorite Costco deals and products?

    Anything Kirkland, love their varieties of specialty cheeses. I always buy the Tilamook cheddar slices. They are thick, cheddary, and make great grilled cheese. Baked goods from their bakery, esp. their cakes and cupcakes. I also love their flan but it's a huge portion, pre-made salads and...

    Free Dining AND discount question

    Yes, you can. I have a friend who books a room for herself club level and a separate room for her adult son ( and whoever is his current girlfriend) at the same resort. She always puts her son/gf on HER reservation as well as their own. Why? So they can enjoy the club lounge and benefits. I...

    HA Hoop Dee Do

    We always take the Ft. Wilderness launch boat over as it's MUCH easier than getting on/off a bus. It brings you very close to Pioneer Hall, plus there's a little playground right there where the kids can burn off steam prior to entering for your dinner show.
