    Just returned from WDW, all 7 suitcases were soaking wet, is there anything the airlines may do?

    One time we flew home from FL on a direct flight. We where stuck on the plane in FL as a huge thunderstorm rolled threw. We sat on the plane and watched multiple carts of luggage get pounded by rain before we eventually flew home. When we all went to get our luggage, most peoples luggage was...

    Reading glasses in the parks

    If taking your glasses off help you read small print Bifocals will allow you to leave them on and read small print. If your contacts are set for distance only you should look into bi focal or mono vision contacts, that doesn't work for everyone but some people love them. I tried and they didn't...

    >> Using Pools at Other Resorts: FAQ & Questions <<

    Unless you are a guest at Beach or Yacht club you will not be able to use the pool. They have lifeguards/ gate guards at every entrance. As a guest they scan your band and check to make sure you are staying there. Then you put a arm band on you, that changes every day. Touring the other resorts...

    Reading glasses in the parks

    Transition lenses are a great solution, Sun sink plus are fantastic. Bi focal sun works great outside but with so many lines and rides inside you also need a clear pair.

    Strategy for FoP/Navi River

    We did rope drop leaving our resort room at 7:00am. We had FOP FP for later so went straight to Navi river. They let us walk into Pandora at 7:45. Na vi was down and by 8:15 the line was back to the bridge. We left at 8:15 to do other stuff. Heard from people they told them at 8:45 to go, not...

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    Just got back from our first trip to WDW and stayed at the YC, OMG we are so spoiled now we will never be able to stay anyplace else. The pool is so good. We could watch fireworks from our balcony. It was so good my DH who had said "1 and done" about WDW now says "in a few years", "when we come...

    Just back from 6/9-6/16 trip - strategies that we learned from

    We where with you for our first time to WDW. I agree with everything you said. By photo pass and let the professionals take your picture. A photographer told us AK is always the hottest park with Pandora being 5 degrees even hotter. Epcot needs more shade or transportation inside the park...

    Animal Kingdom EMH and staying off site?

    We just got back and stayed on site. We rope dropped to do Na'Vi river since we has FP for FOP latter in the day. At 8 am the wait was listed 60 minutes (they let us in calmly around 7:45) by 9 am it was 120-180 So arriving at 9 am my advise is to do the rest the of the park, like Everest...

    Maxi dress in summer/ and fabrics for WDW

    Maxi dresses are not much cooler than pants being they trap the heat inside the dress. I would stay away from Maxi dresses for anything other than going out to dinner. Midi dress if you really don't do shorts. I normally do capri pants but am packing shorts for WDW. Hey no one cares what my ugly...

    Can we talk about hair ladies and guys too?

    Any rides like I am thinking the Aerosmith Roller coaster is a launch (maybe it isn't)and you don't want a pony on the back of your head? First time to WDW

    Can we talk about hair ladies and guys too?

    So I normally wear my hair down but in the June Heat and rain in Orlando, that would not be pleasant. Do you recommend a pony tale or bun on top? Does your head hit many headrests on rides?

    Hs anyone tried clothing from Arctic Cool? Does it really work?

    You can purchase a phase change vest. They freeze at 50 something and stay at 50 something for a hour or 2 sometimes more. They are expensive but work very well. We also used a cooler back pack by picnic time to carry it around. As a child my DD didn't sweat, its gotten much better as she has...

    Are Bombas socks worth it?

    Saved myself some money too I was disappointed in them I thought they would hold up at least a year. He is not that hard on stuff. Love the idea of buying a pair = giving a pair.

    Substitutions at Signatures??

    I am like your wife. Could I get fries or fruit instead of what comes with my main dishes at California, Artist point or Yachtsman? most likely Filet. We are on the DxDP because my kids (14 and 16) and hubby EAT.

    Getting Ice water, filling up water bottles

    KSR thanks I was hoping that was the answer but didn't want to be surprised. Also didn't want to carry 2 heavy yetis. Or water bottles. We have the Deluxe dinning plan but want to get snacks not bottles of water with it ;-) We have mornings planned with breakfasts at 8:05 or 8:15 all but 2...
