I love the *Magical* feeling I get every time I go to the parks. As soon as I get on that tram and the wind hits my face and I start smelling the many yummy scents of Disney, I know I am at my home away from home, and it feels good! I Love it!
Outside my house I can hear tons of crickets and frogs. It sounds like Pirates of the Caribbean x a million! I like it! Plus we have thunder. So it's like Pirates AND Haunted Mansion!
That would be music to my ears :) Pirates is my favorite attraction! - LovelyTiggerGirl252.9 #984 7-13-12 3:09AMLike(1) Reply

I'm so sad. I just tried the Practically Perfect Punch last Saturday at Jolly Holiday Bakery and loved it so much! Went to get it tonight and they said they don't have it anymore. They replaced it with a way too sweet cherry lemonade. I'm More...
I read somewhere its the same punch they serve somewhere else in the park. Maybe you can find it? - booboo23kitty270.1 #824 7-1-12 5:33AMLike Reply
If it's somewhere else in the park, I'd live to find it. Anyone know? - GlitterFabulous 79.9 #3283 7-1-12 11:00AM
They switch back and forth between the two all the time, I believe it just depends on ingredients on hand because they use fresh lemons and limes. I am sure they will have it again. - akpoppins243.3 #1072 7-1-12 7:09AMLike Reply
To beat the price hike tomorrow, I just bought my premium pass over the phone. All they gave me was a confirmation # to give to a ticket booth and told me to pick a date to pick it up and I'd have 30 days from that date to pick it up. I'v More...
So would I be able to buy another annual pass, although mine does not expire till December under a different credit card and not activate the eticket till after my expiration...want to beat the price hike. - ArmorGTX30.0 #4377 5-19-12 5:16PMLike(1) Reply
Let me know as well! I'm in the same boat! - Pawshi 4.8 #10859 5-19-12 5:24PM
I would like to know too! I also want to know if I can just buy the annual gift voucher online without having to call - JollyRoger5 1873.9 #39 5-19-12 5:31PM
That 30 days is weird to me. I hope someone can help you. It is my understanding if you buy an AP gift card today you have till the end of 2012 to activate it. - PrincessDuckie588.4 #188 5-19-12 3:42PMLike Reply
I agree with this! I'd ask about the 30 day. - EpicDio 381.7 #355 5-19-12 3:45PM
Has anyone bought the AP gift vouchers? Do these expire? Our passes expire in Sept, so we were thinking of buying the gift vouchers now. - RCmom2590.4 #20 5-19-12 6:57PMLike Reply
we were thinking of going the annual gift voucher way but you have to pay in full at time of purchase so we just purchased new tickets online and used the payment plan...We have till the end of the year to use them - JollyRoger5 1873.9 #39 5-19-12 7:12PM
I wish they offered the payment plan to outside of Cali people. They don't have to give me the Cali price just the payment option. - NurseDisney29.2 #4412 5-19-12 9:11PMLike Reply

In February my daughter will turn 18 and we have decided to stay at the Grand for 3 nights. I want to pay extra for a view of DCA. Any tips on what is the best room/view to request?
I feel crazy right now. I've been seeing so many Christmas decoration photos on MW, but my friend went yesterday and said there were no decorations anywhere. I've even seen photos on here of the castle lit up in Christmas lights. Is every More...

I was there on Friday and there was decorations up. The tree and all of the full blown decorations on main st weren't up though, so maybe she was talking about that - ladylikesdisney921.5 #95 11-6-11 3:12PMLike Reply
Castle was not lit Friday night, it was lit last might. Holiday decor in Toontown. I posted the Christmas tree there Fri night, PrincessCarmen posted decor in Toontown also, plenty of MWers including Adminhave posted beginnings of NOS decorated and also Bugsland in DCA. These are all from this year. - toph2399.3 #26 11-6-11 3:57PMLike Reply

When we saw Britney the other night it was our first time going to the Honda Center. I liked the arena, so I'm happy we're seeing NKOTBSB there. We just went to the GLEE concert last month in San Diego and are going to the American Idol concert in July and Katy Perry in August. Comic-Con in July too. Disneyland in the evenings when it's cool.

I know Military get discounts for admission, but how about anything else? Food or Merchandise? A friend of mine asked me about any deals I can pass on to him that I know about.

As of right now they will receive a rate up to 40% off on the Disney Resort Hotels. We saved a whoping $1,000 to stay at the Grand for 7 nights. You save even more booking the concier services but it was too high for my blood lol. - HisLilo198.8 #1652 6-23-11 7:33PMLike Reply

I strongly suggest Canon Powershot series. I've had the SD1100 and the SD1400 and they are absolutely great. Easy to use and great quality photos. They range roughly from $250-$350. - Marieeezy588.9 #187 5-25-11 1:14PMLike Reply

I did not mention that the canon SX230 HS can shot 1080p full HD video, fyi if you buy this camera or any other camera that uses a SD card make sure you buy a SDHC card that is a class 10 this card reads.and. writes faster" - RanchoDeluxe760.9 #131 5-25-11 7:44PMLike Reply

That's the hard part about moving to OC is when you can rent a nice house in the IE for a certain price, but if you want the same type of house/neighborhood in the OC, you can't find one for around the same price. Last house I rented was in a nice neighborhood in Murrieta. It was a big nice 2 story with a private pool and spa for $1600. I had to move in with my Mom to save money. And her rent is $1200 because the landlord hasn't raised her rent in 10 years! So lucky since it's in a really nice neighborhood, 2 story, 4 bedrooms. It should be renting for almost $2,000! - GlitterFabulous79.9 #3283 3-13-11 6:13PMLike Reply
Yikes!! When I lives on Ocean Blvd in long beach I paid $800 for a tiny studio apartment with a view of the beach. Now I live in Visalia (San Joaquin Valley) in a 2 bedroom house, big yard etc for the same price. It all depends on what you want!! - LisaMouse7531409.1 #318 3-13-11 6:54PMLike Reply
I want so badly to go to Disneyland right now, but it's rush hour traffic time, and I live an hour away and the parks close at 8 pm! I wish they stayed open later during the week. Not just during summer, and winter/spring breaks.
Just purchased a stone. Did anyone else buy both replicas? I couldn't decide, so I said just give me both! Lol
I got the wooden one because it looks more classic than the modern plexiglass. Plus there is a lot of natural wood in my house. - DuffysJuju627.4 #173 2-28-11 3:35PMLike Reply
