We just went for breakfast on our final day on Saturday! Congrats on getting the ADR - it's exactly why we wanted to go...to eat in the castle. The food is pre-plated and you have a choice of 3 items: Full breakfast (scrambled eggs, bacon & potatoes O'brien), yogurt with berries and granola, or cream cheese stuffed french toast. All of us had the full breakfast, which was good if a bit boring. The also bring out some breads: chocolate croissants, regular croissants, etc. and some ...

My DD is into the vinylmation trading. She has about 8 of them. There is no way to display them when trading like with the pins. DD keeps her's in a ziplock bag. They do have shadow type boxes for display purposes.

We were at Disneyland yesterday and she did two trades. One she got looked like a strawberry and the other was one I have never seen before. It looked like teeth, It was so funny and she just had to have it. There are two ways to trade. There is a mystery ...

Before I went last Feb, everyone raved about the Grand Marnier slushie, so that was my first FAB. It was very good! Then, I went to AK and had a Yak Attack and thought "Holy Cow this is good!" Then, I went back to France and tried the Grey Goose slushie and thought, "This is better than the Grand Marnier slushie...I don't care what Samantha Brown thinks!" :p


Recently, I've been raving to people about the Grey Goose Citron slushie. So it was a shock to me, when I revisited ...

At the same time, the next 15 kids are on circles on the ground in a roped off area just in front of the stage. They battle Darth Maul and are assisted by their own Jedi Instructor.
Each group had its own photo pass photographer taking pictures that could then be uploaded to our ...

Image of All-Star Music - Rock Inn submitted by Jennifer Marx from the PassPorter Photo Archive

We have stayed in all areas of the resort; the standard rooms are all the same, but the preferred rooms should have a privacy curtain near the sink to provide a dressing area. The preferred rooms in Calypso are nearest the food court, etc. Consider if you want to face the pool or not; it could be slightly noisy if you are facing the main pool.

If you are not going to stay in a preferred room then consider ...
