Where in the World??

Let me try one. See how quickly this gets guessed. -
Happy Fall Y'all! TCD's September 2013 Not So Scary TR

You are so close to the location of the third slipper. It is at the BBB but not the castle. It's at the DTD location. -
One thing to note about all of this. Disney did work closely with organizations relating to disabilities to ensure this new system would meet the needs of those who would be using it. They took the advice and recommendations from them. It wasn't just a random thought by some Disney big wig. The system is designed to be flexible and work with the user rather than being a blanket policy. All CMs who are involved in the process received in depth training on the use and how to handle situations. DW was one of them. All I say on the matter is, give it chance before striking it down. If the system

The book ends are replicas of the ones Cinderella's father gave to her as a gift. It appeared in your photo though that they were broken. There should be some figures on them. The paintings hanging in the back of the rooms are replicas from the Sleeping Beauty film. You see them throughout the film. And there are a total of 3 glass slippers on WDW property. We have two, Fairytale Hall and the Castle Suite. Any guesses where the third is? BTW, great report. Your experience with DD1 is the same one I have with my DDs. They light up every time we go to the parks. They try to act all grow -

The open book is in fact a tribute to the old ride, Snow Whites Scary Adventure. The hall was built in the location of the old ride. Disney loves to pay tribute to years past. There are a few more details, although you may not recognize them. It looks like in the photos above they are broken already. The book ends are of some significance as well as the art work in the back of the rooms (you probably didn't even notice them). Anyone know them? And one last trivia, does anyone know how many glass slippers there are on WDW property? And yes, the other room is set up the same way. There -

If you read the spine of the books, it is the story of the princesses in their native language. Do you know the significance of Snow Whites book being opened? -

Trivia time. Those books in fairy tale hall are significant. They have meaning. Anyone know why? P.s. I work there allot. -
It wasn't too bad getting the sign photos. We went early enough the crazies were not out yet. Then we left when they showed up (its great living here). The Festival center is the same is years past except they moved the chase card holder lounge to the area next to where the wine is sold. We did not go in there because we forgot our card.

I thought it would be useful info. I did not try it. After your rave review of it, I decided to skip it and save the belly space for something worthwhile. I figured you would like this one. In weeks you will be 3/4 of the way here? Nothing like being exact.

The following sculptors are made of chocolate.

We got the pot stickers. I liked the pork ones better, but the chicken were still pretty good. We got the garlic shrimp. It was good. Garlic was not too overpowering and added a nice flavor. We got the fritters and the orange dole whip with crème dele chocolate. The fritters are awesome. I highly recommend them. Deep fried pineapple. The dole whip was strong and Im not a fan of chocolate and orange mixed.

We got the key lime wine. It was very good and tasted just like a key lime pie. We wanted to buy a bottle at the center, but they were all gone by the time we got there. The CM said they have been selling fast. We got the lobster roll and bread pudding. The lobster roll was so so. The bread was stale and chewy. The mayo was not very tasty. We ended up eating the lobster out of it and feeding the braed to some ducks. The bread pudding was very good. Tasted like French toast with cranberries on it. They gave you a healthy portion too. and FYI, they opened some new restrooms in the

This is going to be more of an information report than a trip report. I will post the menus with prices from each country represented and what we actually ate from there. The cranberry bog is back this year. We started by taking a right at World Showcase. This is a new booth this year. We tried the tart It was good. It had a gooey center and you could really taste the whiskey. We had the pork sliders here. They were better than last year. The spicy mayo was complimented by the sweet and sour. We got the seared trout. It was kind of bland and not ve

Where in the World??
devores replied to BradyBzLyn...Mo's topic in Picture of the Day from Disney and Beyond
Now that you mention it, it does look like the "Milk House" now known as the HP field house, as well. They are similar in design with the exception of the seating. Its hard t tell in the photo exactly which one it is. The HP Field Center is larger than the Jostens Center, so I am still leaning towards the Jostens Center. -

Alright, Ill take a shot at this. I will guess its ESPN wide world of sports Jostens Center. -
She was wrong. And no, they do not claim tips as part of their income. That makes the difference between who can and cannot accept tips.

My first thought was the MS Bakery, but the tile work is not right. So now I am leaning towards Pecos Bills Tall Tale Inn Café -

That's at the Florida welcome center. -

No. That is not true. CMs are not permitted to accept tips at all. The 3 times thing is a rumor. If they do accept it because the person is being persistent, the CM must turn it into a leader. The tip, if monetary, will be placed into a fund and donated to charity. If it is a gift, the leader turns it in to an HR rep and it is decided what to do with it. If small enough, the CM MAY get to keep it. But most likely will never see it again. I have had guests try to tip me before. One was a $50 bill. One had heard the rumor of the decline 3 times and just said can you accept tips 3 times in a ro

CMs cannot accept tips or gifts for doing their job. The best thing to do is find the nearest guest relations center and drop their name and let them know how great a job they did. Even if they took the tip or gift, disney policy is that the CM must turn it in to their leader. If not, the CM could be terminated for not following policy. The exception to this rule is normally tipped positions such as servers, where the tip is considered a part of their pay.

The one I have will maintain a consistent 40% humidity level and will only require dumping once a day. To bring it down from the 75% to 40% it only took 3 to 4 hours. We place it in the living room area, which is the middle of the camper and it maintains the level throughout the whole camper. A 30 pint should be enough for you as well.

Fulltiming we decided a dehumidifier was a must. Especially after waking up one morning to 75% humidity INSIDE the camper. So we purchased one. We paid about $140 for a GL-DEH-30-1 http://www.soleusair.com/gl_deh_30_1.html Not a 70 pint like you want, but it has the hose connection, auto shut off, and is reliable. You can set the humidity you want to maintain and it will cycle on and off to maintain that. The hose bypasses the collection bucket so if you have a hose connected, you can leave it for a while. It has wheels to roll it around and is not heavy. GL-DEH-30-1 30 PINT ENERGY ST
