I uploaded a new article from Cindy Lynn - "A Mom's Perspective On Doing Disney With Kids - Part 2 - The Thrills" .
This time she shares her experiences on the thrills you and your family will enjoy at Disney World. She takes you thru each of the parks, (Magic Kingdom, MGM Studios, Animal Kingdom and Epcot) and tells you which rides are the most thrilling and why she feels so.

Use Your Points As A DVC Member For More Than Disney World
Disney World is an absolutely AWESOME place, but as a Disney Vacation Club member, do you know you can experience much, much more than the magic of Disney World.
With all the places that have partnered with Disney, you can travel to many places worldwide and experience the lavishness of many hotels that would otherwise cost you quite a bit of change.

Getting The Rosenhan's Photos Up From Disney World
I'm finally getting to setting up the page(s) for Karl and Terri Rosenhan's 10th Wedding Anniversary Vow Renewal at Disney World's Wilderness Lodge Resort.
I have some of the photos uploaded and a page created, but I'm far from done... Using a dialup machine to upload and check out any errors... This is brutal!
I'll be home tomorrow and will work on it more, but if you want to take a look now, Click Here

Farewell To Disney World . . . For Now!
Well, it's time for the vacation to come to a halt, and the sadness looms the air :-(
Sitting at the Orlando International Airport waiting for our 4:10 flight back to Pittsburgh. Flying Southwest again. We came in non-stop from Pittsburgh, and going back non-stop. It's the only way to fly... A couple of hours and you're done.
Disney World was a blast, and the "cast members" were extremely pleasant, well for the most part. There were a couple that seemed to NOT have the Disney spirit, but we're all human.
In the coming weeks, I'll clean up the site and get the photos and videos uploaded.
Now, need to focus on when we're coming back... We have reservations for the week of July 4th, but I'm thinking maybe a short stint before that even, maybe spring... You know, just to get warmed up :-)

Spent Yesterday With The Rosenhans...
Cindy and I met Karl and Terri Rosenhans at Epcot. We all just walked around shopping and snacking at the different countries, and even had some Woodpecker Cider (one of Karl's favorites).
We enjoyed a great dinner at Le Celliere. The food and service was much better than I remember from last year. We had a simply wonderful server this time, Ali, who kept up with Karl and my shenanigans, and even had some pretty good wit of her own.
The four of us finished the day off by doing Figment's Imaginationn and then parting to go to our seperate resorts.

December 7, 2009
The day started off with breakfast at our resort (Saratoga Springs) counter service, The Artist's Palette. Breakfast was ok. Just as I remember it. I think the lunches there are much better.
After walking around to check out a few things, like the fitness center, which I didnt know they had, and we stayed here last year, we went back and changed into our swimwear and tried the hot tub out. It was great, but the swimming pool was COLD!... Since it's going to be a warm day today (8th), we'll try the pool a little later.
Now, back to yesterday... After the hot tub experience, we went back to our suite, showered, and made reservations for Cape May for 7pm.
Cape May, located in the Beach and Yacht Club Resort is HIGHLY recommended. It is a buffet specializing in seafood, but has the roast beef, and other "land lover" items, like pizza, mac and cheese, salads, soups, etc.
Again, I highly recommend Cape May. We got there maybe 20-30 minutes before our reservation time, and was seated in 2 minutes. Staff was friendly and the service was great.
We came back to Saratoga Springs after that, and planned to go to get up at 6am today to spend the day at Epcot, but didnt get up until after 9am, so we'll see how the day goes.

Hanging Around At Hollywood Studios
After starting the day late and having our first meal at the Polynesian Resort's Captain Cook, we took the bus to the Hollywood Studios Theme Park.
Once there, we mulled around the park, saw the Muppets 3D and then watched the Osborne lights for a while, but I got disenchanted with the rudeness of the people, so we headed toward the Tower of Terror / Rock N Roller Coaster area, and stopped at the market to grab a bite, and met up with Karl and Terri Rosenhan.
After eating at the market, (nothing to rave about), the four of us went back to the Osborne lights. The crowd had dissipated somewhat because the park had closed to only those that were staying at the resorts. It was much more enjoyable watching the lights.
We parted from the Rosenhans and went back to the Tower Of Terror / Rock N Roller Coaster area for our thrill seeking for the evening. We hit the Tower of Terror and there was no wait at all. Then we stood in line maybe about 10 minutes for the Rock N Roller Coaster.
After getting a little fill of thrill, we headed back to our suite at The Grandstands section of the Saratoga Springs resort.
Yesterday turned out to be a great day, even if we started out late.
