    Questions about relocating to Orlando

    Thank you ladies you your responses. I feel as though I'm making friends from hundreds of miles away!! :) Liz, your reply confused me a bit (not a hard thing to do, however) . We are looking at condos on Maritime Flag St, Boat Hook Loop and Mizzon Dr. If we rent here will we have access to...

    Best book to get

    I'd recommend the "Passporter". I've read or looked through most of the available Disney guide books and like this one best. :thumbsup2

    Questions about relocating to Orlando

    I came back to this thread to check on some of the great information that I received and was amazed to find it active (sort of). Well, the decision has been made; my family and I will be moving to Florida in June! :cool1: We've gotten in touch with a realtor and have been receiving daily MLS...

    What do you like to do on your arrival day?

    We have the same tradition every year. We check in at the hotel, change clothes if necessary (we usually travel in November; so its cold here and warm in Fla), grab lunch at the food court and then head to MK. We need to see the castle and get a quick dose of Pixie Dust!!! :thumbsup2 God, i...

    The Great Disney Scavenger Hunt - Answers

    Thanks to all who helped to put this together and to amend it! I had done a homemade treasure hunt a couple of years ago and we had a great time. Although my DW & DMIL cheated to win on that hunt...but that is another story!!! This is so much bigger; we can use it on several trips. Thanks...

    Pirates and Pals Firework Voyage or Seas Aqua Tour

    We've only done the Pirates and Pals as well and had a great time!!:thumbsup2 I went with my DW, DS (age 12) and DMIL. We all had fun and laughed a lot!! :rotfl2: The free snacks at the Contemporary was the funniest thing of all...but that's another story!!! Doug

    Simple Thing a Cast Member Did...

    I have a couple... 1st- On our DS first trip we had closed MK and rode the bus back to ASM. Very tired and foot sore my DW and I got off the bus and began to organize our gear, when we look around to notice no Andy!! To our great joy we looked over to the merchandise cart to find our son...

    Where to find schoolbread?

    The cream is different than Boston cream; it is airer and more fluffy. Either way, school bread is incredible! :thumbsup2 It is a must have everytime we go to Epcot! Enjoy... :goodvibes Doug

    Remembering The Adventures Club...

    I would like to hear your stories of fun and mayhem at The Adventures Club! :) I'm still upset that the venerable ol' place is closed!! :mad: Here is my story...We arrived early one evening; not too sure what to expect! We grabbed a drink and began to wander around. It was not very long...

    Pirates Cruise

    Our DS has gone twice and liked it both times! :thumbsup2 Don't worry too much about safety. The kids are required to put on a life jacket before boarding the boat (at GF) and cannot remove it until the boat is tied up to the dock at the cruise end. Doug

    Casey's, what in the world have you done to our favorite place??

    They changed the hot dogs and the buns a couple of years ago. :mad: I'm sure it was done to save money. The downside, for you and I, is that the place stinks now! IMHO, there are few things worse than a bad hot dog on a cheap bun! :rolleyes: That is why we have been avoiding the place on...

    What meals do you mostly book?

    We pretty much exclusively book dinners. The only exception to this is if we decide to do a character breakfast; which has become rare as our DS is getting older. We generally eat b'fast at the hotel. Lunch is usually counter service at one of the parks; followed by a nice, sit down dinner...

    Favorite Disney Park

    Like LOTS of other folks, it was between MK and Epcot. Both are outstanding! :thumbsup2 I voted for Epcot because I enjoy the "grown up" atmosphere; along with the cool attractions. I also like the restaurants at Epcot a bit better. Let it be known, however, that my wife and DS probably...

    Hoop De Doo or Ohana's For Dinner? Both?

    I have to agree with most of the other Disers here. O'hana is a family favorite, we go every year and would recommend it to anyone! :thumbsup2 So, if it won't leave too big of a dent in your meal budget, try to do both!!! BTW, you will love HDDR! :lmao: Enjoy... :goodvibes Doug

    Souvenier you regret buying

    I can't say that we have many regrets; we have an ice cube tray, and now we've learned the trick to make them work :goodvibes We have the MM salt and pepper shakers (no cracks so far). We also bought the MM egg molds, that don't work...the egg oozes out the bottom! There are only a couple...

    What to do with Journey Into Imagination

    I figured that I would add my two cents. ;) As much as I enjoyed (and preferred) the original Dreamfinder version, I would not like it to return. I would like the Imagineers to come up with a fresh, new story for Dreamfinder and Figment. Obviously, with the endless amount imagination at...

    Enchanted Tiki Room to be "reminiscent of the original show"

    I, for one, don't care too much if they employ more screens or not. I just want the attraction to be better. Obvously, "characters of screens" is the new wave, as I am sure it is cheaper than AA. If they just improve the attraction, use some of the old songs, add a few new jokes, make it a...

    Restaurant ?

    Yor are correct about the restuarant, it is on the upper floor of the Land Pavillion. It has been a while since I've eaten there, so I can't vouch for the food or the experience. :confused3 I have not heard many good things about the Coral Reef, however. :sad2: From what you read here, the...

    Kali rapids and dinosaur ?'s

    Go on Kali River Rapids. The ride is pretty tame and the drop is not really long, just be prepared to get wet! It's not really a "possibility" it is more of a "certainty"!! :laughing: Especially if you are the unfortunate one to go down the hill backward!!! :woohoo: Dinosuar is another...
