    Make a Wish (and other organizations) - Wish Trippers UNITE! Volume SIX!

    I'm very sorry about your daughter's diagnosis. My daughter had stage IV ERMS & and she's been in remission for almost 2 years. We're finally going on her wish trip next month. You are a great father & you will get her through this. The MAW process for a cancer kid is very easy- her...

    OT: Boston

    Before I moved to Boston, my husband and I spent a weekend staying at the Omni Parker House and we loved it. It's a great hotel with a lot of history- the original Boston Cream Pie is here, and it's where Parker House Rolls were invented. The rooms have all been recently redone, so the...

    Best plan for Sea World in a day?

    If you can swing it, I would recommend one of the VIP tours, or anything that gets you preferred seating at the shows. Both times we've been to SeaWorld we did a photo tour, which doesn't exist anymore, but you're able to arrive 10-15 minutes before a performance, even of "Believe" and get the...

    OK Pete, I'm ready for the E ticket app for Android

    Sadly, Verizon does not support mobile magic for the Droid. :confused: When I visited the World in February I tried to download it, but it was "unsupported". I think this is because Droid users download things from the Android Marketplace instead of directly from Verizon, but I'm not sure...

    Swan or Dolphin and Transportation

    I stayed at the Swan and it was great. It's smaller and more intimate than the Dolphin, and it's a quick walk over to Picabu if you want a quick bite for breakfast. If there's a big convention going on, the Dolphin can be a bit overwhelming. That being said, I think the views may be...

    extinct attraction poll

    Now I'm going to spend the entire day humming "veggie veggie fruit fruit". I love that song!

    Mistakes you made while at the Parks

    I packed a different pair of cute shoes for each night we were there, and only one pair of sneakers to wear everyday. My feet decided they didn't like the sneakers I brought (even though they were fine and broken in at home- so frustrating!) and I didn't have a backup. I learned to always...

    Blizzard of 2010 - How much snow did you get?

    No snow in the Boston area. Shocking!

    Which guide book?

    We've been using the Unofficial Guide forever (since I was a kid and my mom was the one bringing them on vacation). Their touring plans are always spot-on and save us tons of time. You're right- they don't change much from edition to edition, but I always have to have the latest one. Most...

    Where to sell Wii Drum set?

    My DH sold his original Rock Band set for XBox last Christmas on Craigslist and got a much better price for it than he would have at Gamestop. If you're willing to put in the extra effort, CL can definitely be worth it.

    Do you own a blender, food processor or both?

    I own a Kitchen Aid blender & a Kitchen Aid food processor. The food processor does a great job with liquids- I use it to make gazpacho- but I've never tried to make smoothies in it. I do find it difficult to get the bowl seated in exactly the right position, and it won't turn on unless it's...

    Disappointed in David's Vacation Club Rentals

    Thank you for answering my question so kindly :) That's really all I was looking for. I think my husband may have been asking about surcharges or commission (which would be reasonable in a situation like this). We were just struck by the abruptness of the response.

    Disappointed in David's Vacation Club Rentals

    After listening to this week's podcast discussion I was super-excited to go online and check out the new sponsor- David's Vacation Club Rentals. My husband and I are planning a trip to the World on 2/20-2/24 and this seemed like a great way to try out a DVC and support a DIS sponsor. I checked...

    Wii for Christmas, what all do I need to get?

    Metacritic is great for researching Wii games. They aggregate reviews from a whole bunch of websites and magazines and you can read what other people are saying about the games you're thinking about buying. It's definitely saved me from buying games that would have been a big waste of money...

    What's in your park "pack"?

    I also like those mini-fans on hot days. You can get them in the camping section of Target.

    New England Meet - THIS COMING WEEKEND - 9/26!!

    Sadly, my DH and I can no longer make it to the DIS Meet. I got so excited I didn't realize the meet was on the same day as a wedding we had already RSVP'd for. And yes, I thought about not going to the wedding for a minute (don't tell DH).

    D23 Magazine - Facts

    It's so true about cheesecake. It really is a cake AND A pie. It has a cake-like consistency and there's often fruit on it, like a pie. Now I want to skip lunch and go right to dessert. Shout out to Kathy for bringing up the cake/pie issue on FB. The whole thing has just exploded all...

    Do you "Raise Eyebrows" While Listening to the Podcasts?

    I listen to the podcast while I'm commuting on the T, and I've been known to crack up hysterically on a quiet train. Last week a man asked me what type of podcast I was listening to after a particularly long fit of laughter. When I told them him it was about Disney World he actually got up and...
