Wow that's amazing. 14 days would be so much fun!!!! I'll bet you have a lot of great memories, and hopefully lots of great pictures. Look forward to reliving it all by going through all the pics. Maybe pick out some favorites and print and frame them. - BelieveInMagic85.4 #3196 1-6-13 2:02PMLike Reply
Thanks all, yes, it was well worth it and I'd do it all again in a second!

Live! Still plenty left if anyone wants some. Doesn't look so good now but still tastes great, see you at Ghirardelli. I'll be the one looking full and unwell.
Merry Christmas all. We have used 6 days of our 14 day pass and it has been amazing. Had breakfast with Minnie on Christmas morning and it was magic. The children got to open their presents with Minnie Mouse, who could ask for more?! - Simon6.9 #8269 12-30-12 3:30AMLike Reply
I watched it from Ariel's Grotto. Fantastic in my opinion. And they have heaters too so you don't freeze. - mousejedi273.0 #796 11-24-12 2:03PMLike Reply

I'll have a 4 and 6 year old so lining up early doesn't bode well. Is Ariel's Grotto just a public area you can stand to watch it? - Simon6.9 #8269 11-24-12 11:24PMLike Reply
Personally I like booking a meal. Wine Country has never disappointed and I have seen lots of families with young children there :) Any way you do it you will enjoy it :)

I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I can buy giftcards at DLR please? I was going to buy some online as Christmas presents for the family but they wanted $25 to post them to me, I figure that's $25 I could spend in the park if More...
I've seen them sold at world of Disney. They are easily found. - Mrs.mouse420.3 #306 11-11-12 2:49AMLike Reply
You can also purchase them at ticket booths. Those ones are reload able I believe. - Princessana0839.3 #4008 11-11-12 8:24AMLike Reply
If you're talking about the Disney gift cards for spending (rather that ticket cards), they also sell them in grocery stores. Our Von's has them most of the time. - ThatKimberly334.5 #448 11-11-12 8:36AMLike Reply
So is the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique worth it? And if so can you book online or by email? Or do you not really have to book? I'll be there Dec and early Jan so thinking it wil be busy!
I'd make a reservation. It is expensive but your princess will love it. - Mrs.mouse420.3 #306 11-9-12 1:59AMLike Reply
Thanks for that. We're coming al the way from New Zealand so I figure we may as well spend up as we won't be back for a while! - Simon 6.9 #8269 11-9-12 9:34AM
It's worth it,the complete package is awesome with the photo shoot they do. and I would make reservations, that place is always packed. - madsdad1122.8 #73 11-9-12 9:36AMLike Reply
Thanks, best I give them a ring then. Maybe a good thing to do on Christmas day when the park is busy, if they haven't already booked out for then. - Simon 6.9 #8269 11-9-12 10:08AM
Would need to get the premium AP as we there over Christmas and others have blockout dates. 14 Day park hopper for 4 people only half the price of AP for 4. Didn't know about the discounts though. - Simon6.9 #8269 8-21-12 10:31PMLike Reply
It's something to consider. Perhaps jot down a lust of what you expect at the park and figure out the amount you would save and add that to the park hopper cost. Then compare the two totals. :) you also get an ap discount at the hojo so figure that into the equation as well. - aidensmama 336.3 #443 8-21-12 10:39PM
Thanks, is it possible to upgrade, now that I have bought the passes though? - Simon 6.9 #8269 8-21-12 10:41PM
Thanks, I'll check it out! The annoying thing about the 14 day pass is that it expires 14 days after the first use so can't even use it on 14 random days over 3 weeks. - Simon6.9 #8269 8-21-12 10:49PMLike Reply
Hi all. I'm bringing the family over in Dec/Jan. When's the least busy time Dec 20th to around Jan 13th? Or is it all busy?
January would be less busy, but you might have to accept a few attraction closures as the holiday themes are removed, which is a bit of a bummer, especially since you are coming from so far. There's no place like Disney at Christmas so I'd just commit to a time then go for it. Even with crowds, with 6 days you will have plenty of time to see and do all you like. No matter what you'll still have a great time! - MoonWillow367.4 #378 4-6-12 1:25PMLike(1) Reply
ITs pretty busy around that time. Your best bet is to hope for rain! That really clears people out - ladylikesdisney921.5 #95 4-6-12 12:40PMLike Reply

Is that Kiwi Simon? Where have you been?? You need to bump this post when it's morning over in the US so you get some answers. I've heard 2 weeks is the minimum and you still won't see everything. Try doing a search on WDW up the top there - BLG1049.5 #81 1-18-11 1:05AMLike Reply

Not really. In DCA, over by Grizzly River Run, you can usually pick up the wifi from the hotel, which us free. But that's about your only bet. - PrinceCorey4242.2 #6 4-7-10 5:29AMLike Reply

The wildlife park is an awesome experinces. The use morenatural barriers (ie water instead of cages for monkeys). Also they have lots of different experinces including a zip
line (l believe the longest in the US). Check out their website. If you decide to do San Diego too look at the Citipass it's a money saver if you're going to go to all the attractions. P - NikkiMickey1583.5 #48 2-27-10 12:03PMLike Reply

The parks get busy around that time because it's spring break and alot of the rehab's are finishing up. Went last year in April in the middle of the week and it was like a Saturday crowd. This year could be different because of the no free on your birthday. I have vacation in April during the week of the 19th. - Gadgetman288.8 #675 1-29-10 5:54PMLike Reply
