On a hot day a cold beer at the Prime time lounge is heavenly, even to watching all those I love Lucy clips!

That has had a ma...

My problem with the dining plan is that there is way too much food and a huge amount of waste (judging from all the half eaten CS plates I saw last trip). I wouldn't mind it for a couple of days but not a couple of weeks, my waistline couldn't cope! :roll:

I am not a fan of the hat but I can't see it moving. Think there was a thought that they would be losing the great movie ride because of the mgm issues but obviously didn't happen at that time.

I was lucky enough to be in WDW for the Passholder preview weekend and the ride is wonderful. Very clever and great fun. A kind of mix between BTMR and Rock'n'roller coaster with no loops!

A tie between Art of Disney and World of Disney - could spend hours in either!

Both Halloween and Christmas are great. My dh gets fed up with all the Xmas music in December but I love it. MNSCHP is a great party with a fun parade and great fireworks.

I am so pleased to hear that Cinderellabration is finished - it was much poorer than the surprise party that came before it. Hope the new show is even better!

One of the things I like about DVC is no daily housekeeping - it is much simpler

The castle at DLP is very different from either of the US ones - it is very much a fairy tale castle, mainly because they felt there were too many real castles within shouting distance of the park. It is very beautiful but I agree with other posters that there is something special about the original...

We get an AP for WDW and try to get two trips in the 12 month period. We got an AP for Paris last year because for some weird reason that worked out cheaper than buying a 2 day pass!

I quite like the nine dragons, especially their sort of set menu / buffet where you can try a number of different items and have more of the ones you like. i used to live near the London Chinatown and of course it does not compare to that but there is a lovely atmosphere.
