Looking forward to the report. I will be at Uni starting 9/16.

TV's in Ques I would have no problem with TV's in the ques as long as they are showing appropriate content. Example: Kilomanjaro Safari - show animals grazing on the savannah or a "zoologist" telling you about the different animals or an "advertisement" for the safari company. As long as...

Nicely put R W B. Come to think of it, entering Baton Rouge via the river bridge on Friday prior to a game on Saturday does come close to the Disney feeling. Seeing the stadium from the top of the bridge is much like coming home and since I went to school there (many years ago), it kinda...

Nothing, and I mean NOTHING compares to Saturday Night in Baton Rouge! It isn't a Disney warm and fuzzy "coming home" feeling. It is raw adrenaline. Protip 2: If you are in (or near) the student section, wear earplugs.

This describes my neighbor exactly. He has been there twice, both times in July. When he came home he did nothing but whine about the heat, the lines, the cost and on and on and on. He refused to use the fast pass because, and I quote: "there has to be a cost there somewhere that they stick...

I was once in a situation very simular to yours. DO NOT DO WHAT I DID! I made the entire trip a trail of tears. Thinking to myself at every turn "I remember when we................" BOO HOO, BOO HOO! Go! Enjoy your trip! Do the parks in reverse order or jump around from what has been...

That is a great tip! Thanks!

Great tips! My thanks to disney4life2008, celluloid and JILLc LI for the advice. I knew I could count on my friends here at WDWmagic! All other tips/tricks/advice welcome! Will be attacking the 4 Disney parks the following 2 days after Universal. My daughter and I are calling this trip...

Great! The resorts won't be do-able (tight budget) but was looking at getting the express passes for my daughter and I for the two days. Would that be a wise move? Mythos and Tchoup Chop are definitely on the to do list!

Will be at Universal for the first time Sept. 16/17. Anyone have tips on how best to attack the parks and experience as much as possible?

If in WDW right now, what would I be doing? Haunted Mansion over and over and over!

Rudeness in Parks While we haven't been in the parks nearly as much as many of you here, I haven't ever encountered or observed a rude CM. I have, however, witnessed far too many rude acts by guests. Some of these acts are directed at the CM's and how the CM was able to keep their cool in...

Stay strong my friend. We are all pulling for you. Here's to you planning MANY returns to Disney!

56 days from departure. Working hard on keeping myself calm!!!

Wait times WOW. Reading this thread makes me feel even luckier. We have been to WDW 3 times, all in September. In 23 days in the parks, we waited in line a total of twice! Peter Pan for 10 minutes and The Land for 15 minutes (it had been down and they just got it running). Every other ride...
