The Grand Floridian has not only a beautiful tree and many other fantastic decorations but they also have the Giant Gingerbread House. The Yacht and
Beach Clubs along with the Boardwalk Inn also have some beautiful and imaginative decorations. Oh yes!!- don't forget the Wilderness Lodge!!

I tolerated the green much better than the orange but I still want to do the orange again next trip - will have to use the dramamine or something a little stronger. Tried scopolamine patches but they made me goofy (and not the good kind) so they are out!!

DW and I love the GF but for a change of pace we are going to try Wilderness Lodge next trip. I know we will miss the sheer convenience of the monorail but we have always found the bus service to be quite good and we love the boat ride too!!

I was 44 - took my parents for their 50th in 1990. DW and I have been back MANY times since then and will continue to go as long as we are physically able!! We are both in outstanding health so we should be going for many years to come!!!

We love the LTT and eat there at least once each visit. We had both lunch and dinner in October of '07 and the character interaction was great at dinner; the food was pretty good also. Without the characters we will probably stick with lunch (great menu selection) and enjoy the theming.

I started verrrrrry late in life to make my first visit (44 yrs old) but have been back many times since. Actually I was a bit overwhelmed because we were a group of 8 for my parent's 50th anniversary and I foolishly thought that we would all want to go to the same places at the same time (will neve...

The show is O.K but after you have seen it once you will probably only want to use it as a filler if you have extra time on your hands (and when was the last that happened at WDW). An incredible amount of talent is involved in pulling off the stunts but it's probably just not my cup of tea. I'll tak...

We haven't been since just prior to DCA opening. We are going in mid October to renew our relationship with the parks. Besides, I like PoC and Small World better at DLR than at WDW. I also need to get some new pics of the much cooler (at least IMHO) HM exterior at DLR. I'll let you all know how the ...

Stroller Commandos!! The backs of my legs were bruised after only an hour in MK. The scary part - it was not crowded but lots of psycho stroller pilots.
