"We're gonna give you this nifty 20% discount, but we're also going to limit your access during the roll out of new rides, attractions and whenever we feel like doing it... That is unless you have purchased the Super Platinum Gold Plated Black Card Annual Pass, which will get you the access to the secret Cinnamon Roll Room at the MK and the front seat beside the lever puller on the Monorail of your choice...

"Happy Wife, Happy Life!"

I just returned from a business trip to Richmond, VA and up through the Tysons, VA area (Washington, DC), and even though VA was listed as one of the "problem states" I never saw any issues with gas... I left last Sunday evening and just got back this morning...

I can understand all of the talk about the "fake" stuff... but I want to know did they get rid of that "real" speck of dust that used to float across the screen on the previous movie?

The shirt that your 5 y/o son has on in the 2nd picture has snagged me... I can't wait to hear more!

I agree with Nacole on this as well... I know your kiddos are very young at the moment, but as they get older, the amount of "stuff" they want to bring along will grow too. Another thing to think about, depending on how long you plan on keeping this new rig, the kids are going to want to bring their friends along with them on camping trips. Just something to think about. "It's better to have it and not need it, then need it and not have it!"

WooHoo, or should I say BooToYou, I'm coming along for the ride...

Ok Gwen, you need to do what the Miller "Queen" and "Princess" does on occasion... You need to travel like the rockstar that you are! Get David to drop you off at your kid's in Wake Forest... Send him on his way to the Fort with the dog. Get your kids to drop you off at RDU and catch a Southwest flight to Orlando. Let him get to the Fort and get everything set up and in place. You take the 1.5 flight down to Orlando and catch the DME over and get dropped off at the Fort. Like all rockstars, you let the "roadies" travel ahead and get everything set up, the you swoop in and enjoy th

We have a "handle less" mug from Typhoon Lagoon from about 10 to 12 years ago... Received it "free" just for turning in our towels that we rented at the end of the day... It's the same style and size as the current handled mugs. It even has a "pleather" like cover that slips over the body of the mug with Typhoon Lagoon stamped on it. As for the new mugs, we can go either way... As any good husband would say: "I have no opinion"

Well said Keith!

Although its gotten a bit better over the years, I still have to say that the southbound lanes of I-95 between Dillon, SC and Florence, SC have to be the roughest section of road to either drive or pull an RV on. The concrete seam spacing seems to be just far enough apart to shake your teeth out. Along with the sections of crumbling and patched concrete add to the ride...

While I'm sure Disney is getting "something" out of this, like I mentioned earlier, I saw this exact same thing at the Baltimore airport a couple of weeks ago. The prices were the same for the initial "buy", then unlimited exchanges from then on. I guess this company is wanting to copy the Redbox model.

I saw one of these kiosks in the Baltimore airport last week... Same company, same product...

Do you think these could have been used during the construction of the FWRR to haul gravel for the railroad bed? Just a guess...

I can see it now.... L,M,A Driver Team Meeting: "Ok guys, you all know that our show has been cut. In an effort to keep you on the payroll there are several positions throughout the property that you can apply for: Bus Driver at Fort Wilderness Parking Lot Tram Driver at what is left of HS Friendship Boat Captain at Boardwalk Ferry Boat Captain between MK and TTC Brown Paint Guy at FW Applications and job transfer forms can be picked up in the conference room on your way out."

Hey Kelly, been gone for the last week or so and just logged into the site... As far as I know they are not discontinuing the DVC AP discounts. I went to the DVC Member website and pulled the AP Ticket price table..

I'm good through November of 2016. This coming November I then will look at the DVC Member renewal price. So far, it hasn't been too painful. Disney sort of "hooked me up" this past year... For the past several years my renewal date has always been on June 22. This past year I called and renewed the AP around the 6/22 timeframe. I knew I wouldn't get to Disney before our November trip, so just sucked it up and waited. When we arrived for our recent trip, I went to Disney Springs with my voucher to activate the AP like I was supposed to, and instead of making it active on 6/22, she moved

Now Gwen, you ought to know that men are creatures of habit... we always "go with what we know..." plus you just can't pass up KK when the hot sign is on! Not sure if you've checked this place or not, but try Replacements, Ltd. They are supposed to be the largest supplier of replacement china and silverware of anyone... I know you're not looking for a replacement piece, but they could probably tell you how old the piece is. They have a huge warehouse and store and are located on I-40/85 on the east side of Greensboro between the 40/85 split and Mt. Hope Church Road. Here is their web

Congrats on the new toy... I'll be sure to keep my eyes open for you as I travel around the area...

Great job so far Gwen... I am reading along. So sorry we didn't get a chance to catch up to you guys again while we were there.... Looking forward to more of the report!

I was looping around this morning and saw a new pole that went up in the 500 loop.

Okay for what's it's worth, Disney has not replaced all the carts with the new style. The rental fleet at the cart check out area was all the standard Club Car style. I did see a couple of the new style carts parked at the bus stop and out on the road. Maybe this is another Disney pilot program like they did with the hybrid busses a couple of years ago.

Hey Guys, remember me? It's been a while... Anyway, we are on the way down to the Fort for check-in tomorrow around noon to 1-ish... We have (gasp) rented a cart from Disney this trip and will be glad to report back the nitty gritty of this new cart situation... Unless someone else beats me to it. Stay tuned!
