My grandma is coming with us this time and I think we should rent one of those scooters that I see all over the parks. Anyone know where I can get one?

Also, I think she might want to walk a bit of the time and use it when she gets tired. I was thinking we can park it somewhere, like at the entrance of a busy ride, and come back when we need it. Can we take it on the bus? The monorail? Any experience or ideas with this? ]]> WDW Theme Parks Disney Princess http://www.mousebuzz.com/forum/wdw-theme-parks/55786-renting-scooter.html Taking a trip when the kidsa are not in school? http://www.mousebuzz.com/forum/wdw-theme-parks/55773-taking-trip-when-kidsa-not-school.html Wed, 01 Sep 2010 11:19:43 GMT We have always traveled to WDW at the slower times taking my daughter out of school and have ususally found a week where they had perhaps at least 1 day off school.

We have always traveled to WDW at the slower times taking my daughter out of school and have ususally found a week where they had perhaps at least 1 day off school. We have traveled in September, October, January etc. My daughter will be entering high school next year and I am wondering if it will be to hard to take her out of school. If you were contemplating a trip when the kids are not in school when would you think the best time to go would be? Just FYI our family are early risers and we are always at the parks when they open and usually head back to the room for the pool or relaxation. We have annual passes and go every year so we are not concerned with being in the parks all day. ]]> WDW Theme Parks MK032197 http://www.mousebuzz.com/forum/wdw-theme-parks/55773-taking-trip-when-kidsa-not-school.html <![CDATA[Cinderella's suite]]> http://www.mousebuzz.com/forum/wdw-theme-parks/55770-cinderellas-suite.html Wed, 01 Sep 2010 00:17:57 GMT Do they still use this suite in Cinderella's castle?? ]]> WDW Theme Parks babets http://www.mousebuzz.com/forum/wdw-theme-parks/55770-cinderellas-suite.html <![CDATA[Space Mountain now with "Starry-O-Phonic" audio]]> http://www.mousebuzz.com/forum/wdw-theme-parks/55767-space-mountain-now-starry-o-phonic-audio.html Tue, 31 Aug 2010 17:16:33 GMT Space Mountain has a new off-board audio system called "Starry-O-Phonic Sound." I rode the Peoplemover (:happy:!!) last night and heard music playing inside SM... the ride wasn't letting guests on at the time so I thought maybe there was a private party going on, but apparently this music is part of a new audio feature.

From WDWMagic.com:

Quote:
Space Mountain is now running with it's brand new audio system, dubbed 'Starry-O-Phonic Sound'. The addition of the audio now completes the major 2009 refurbishment that added new storyline elements, new lighting and darkening effects, updated loading area and queue, new queue interactive games and an on-ride photo system.

Unlike Rock 'n' RollerCoaster or Space Mountain in Disneyland or Paris, which use on-board speakers mounted in the train, Space Mountain uses 60 speakers installed "off-board" on the sides of the track. Sound effects and music are timed to play as each train passes. The soundtrack was written specifically for the Magic Kingdom's mountain by composer Mike Brassell.
The full article can be found here - it includes a review of the musical score and sound effects, and there is a youtube clip at the bottom of the page that lets you listen to the whole ride with the new audio.

I'm not familiar at all with how this works, but it says they have the special parade and fireworks, so just not sure how it works. If we don't buy tickets and decide not to go, should we avoid MK on the day they are having it? ]]> WDW Theme Parks AprilandtheKids http://www.mousebuzz.com/forum/wdw-theme-parks/55750-mnsshp-question.html discounts http://www.mousebuzz.com/forum/wdw-theme-parks/55739-discounts.html Sun, 29 Aug 2010 00:55:53 GMT Was wondering what type of discounts do you get when you work for disney.

The morning after our 8th wedding aniversary (12 total) I go
ahead and break Helena's favorite coffee cup!:eek: She says
its ok but I know shes bummed out:crying: I'm pretty sure I
can fix it, but I think she deserves a new one. More than likely
I can find it elsewhere but I would love to get it from the parks.
Any of you folks that know me want to help me out? Of course
I would take care of all expenses. Anyone going in the near
future want to help this clumsey old man out?
I thank you all kindly:flowers:
The top is before. The bottom is after

Well I promised DH no running around like a maniac seeing everything (See his world doesn't revolve around the mouse like mine - actually he teases me by saying we are infested with rodents everytime I purchase another Mickey related item)

What I'm looking for are suggestions for visiting/seeing things normally passed by or unknown, like the Koi Pond in Japan - which I've never seen yet but will this trip. I also plan on visiting some of the value & moderate hotels to check out the decor as I have already visited all the Deluxe ones.

Any other suggestions? ]]> WDW Theme Parks DonnyD http://www.mousebuzz.com/forum/wdw-theme-parks/55721-off-beaten-path.html
