    Bits and bobs

    I see you say no to holiday t-shirts but have a look in Primark for Disney t-shirts for about £8. I have one with Walt Disney quote something like Growing Old is mandatory but growing up is optional. I was stopped so many times wearing that. Lots of Chip t-shirts at the moment, one with a...

    Booking a trip, advice desperately sought

    I've usually booked as soon as the UK offer comes out in April for the following year using a cash back site which pays the deposit should we have to cancel for any reason. As we fly Edinburgh/Gatwick/MCO using BA I wait until they have a sale, check the flights I want then ring Disney to add...

    Mosquito treatment

    The first time my daughter had the bites she had been water ski-ing in the lake, well more in the water than actual ski-ing so they wondered if it was something in the water but last year we went to the quick service Restaurant at GF then walked down to the water to watch Wishes and it was...

    Mosquito treatment

    We leave on Tuesday and my daughter twice has ended up in the Medic Centre due to swelling with bites, so far I have bought some wipes and contemplating trying the wrist bands but will certainly try the OFF when we get there. One year they reckoned it was yellow fly? And like the OP stay at...

    Goody bags!

    I'd go to Primark as they have loads of Disney stuff. Last year about this time I got some sequinned Mickey Ears that were way cheaper than you would pay at Disney.

    Holiday insurance nightmare

    Try https://www.maggiescentres.org/ if they don't have one nearish to you, they have online help. I know our Maggie's Centre which originated in Edinburgh have a list of insurers that do accept cancer patients but I can't say what sort of price you would need to pay.

    Visiting Laundryland whilst at Disney...

    The other side of the Laundry room at POFQ is the pool bar so its quite easy to entertain yourself while doing a wash! Like Elise I take some powder tablets with me, you can get a small box at the pound shop and I just take a few with me. POFQ was the first resort to use the card option rather...

    Booked for next year, new restaurant ideas?

    Can only agree with Wilma-bride about The Boathouse, we went in May when it was first opened and had a great meal. We paid OOP and didn't think it was bad at all, yes you can spend a lot but the same can be said about any top Disney restaurant.

    Few questions before I finish my London trip planning...

    The tram is a nice journey out to the airport, £5 per person and you can get it from Princes Street. Two recommendations for the Friday and or Saturday evenings are Mary King's Close for a tour of underground Edinburgh...

    We got some skins from Dis approved magicyourband.com really great service and you can custom your own design. One band we had at home my daughter used sparkle nail polish on before we left and it stood up well to being in water and wear and tear. She took some nail polish with us and sparkled...

    Disney's PORT ORLEANS FRENCH QUARTER RESORT Information & Questions

    Hate to correct you Andre but I understood the bus stop at West Side was now closed and the buses only go to Market Place however as you said get off the boat at Market Place and take the boat from there across to West Side. We will occasionally use the bus via DTD to another resort and this...

    Disney's PORT ORLEANS FRENCH QUARTER RESORT Information & Questions

    Stayed in Bld4 twice, this year on ground floor overlooking the parking area BUT between the room and the parking area is a large garden area although the rooms are standard view and its a short walk through to the back of the bus stops without having to go through the main building. Its my area...

    DAS & MVMCP

    Sorry I assumed it was your trip last year when you mentioned your son calling out the CM as I understood your trip in May was without your children.

    DAS & MVMCP

    The person whose post you have quoted her trip was a year ago and things do and indeed have changed in lots of ways over the past year especially since the DAS is now linked to your MB. Its interesting to see now on MDE there is an option to see your Disability Access Return Times experiences so...

    Port Orleans French Quarter Beds?

    Have to agree with this which didn't occur to me really until I returned home, now considering buying a new firmer mattress for the house!
