The Official Planning Thread of the Bubble Ladies 2008 WDW Tour

[vixen101485]

If we come down for the BL Tour we cant afford to do many extras but I seriously would swing the money to see those guys interact with some of the folk on here. LOL

I did some reading on the Behind the Seeds tour. I didnt know they allowed the younger set on this one. Meghyn would love the ladybugs and fish.
Chessy, you just took this recently, what do you think?

The restaurants I would recommend for first-time guests on a budget include (in no particular order):

Boma
Prime Time Cafe
Crystal Palace
Sand Trap Bar & Grill
Trail's End
Whispering Canyon
Kona Cafe
Sci-Fi Dine-in Theater (but only for dessert)
Tony's Town Square
Tangierine Cafe
Cape May Cafe
Mama Melrose's

But I'd still like to consider the Hoop-De-Doo Review. Half price seats for the 9:30 show!

Yay for Crystal Palace, a GREAT character interaction place! We are going to to do the Hoop-dee-do when we come in May. I have wanted to do that since I read about it several years ago. Heck, when we move to Floor-ee-duh, we may go several times over the Summer, just to have some late evening fun! Great list Zazu! I will mark these down for our trip as well! :p: Definitely want to get to Tangierine, heard it is fabuloso!
Wish we could come to the Bubble Ladeez trip too :( but only one trip to WDW this year and then maybe we can MOVE to Orlando area!!!!!!!!!) Cross your fingys and toesies and eyes that our financial advisor gives us the thumbs up for a move to Florida to rent, while we are still trying to dump the McMansion here... er...I mean sell the beautiful, Architectural Digest quality luxury home. heeheeheehee...I just want out of 6100 ft of too much room for the two of us, though I would love to bring my library room with me. I will just have to build a new better library room for our well over 10,000 books! Yoiks!!!!!! You think we like to read????
Oh well, I will be thinking of all of you while the trip is going on and expect nightly updates from the KSR Marsupial as to the day's activities and impressions of the trip! :D:
soosi and raffle :p:

HEHEHE! Call em like you see em? LOL

I thot we were bad having four 6foot tall bookshelves (the cheap put them together yourself kind) double stacked each shelf with books. I finally talked Donnie into eliminating some of his novels that he bought 5 years ago and never read. I tend to like to keep reference (even the older ones can be at least semi-useful) We had to take all the books off the shelfs to weatherproof our walls (DONT ASK:rolleyes :) anyway so I was really proud of myself for getting rid of 4 kitchen garbage bags full. No I didnt toss them, they went in my yard sale pile in the attic.

Back to your regualerly scheduled thread. I am impressed that it has stayed relatively on topic....LMAO

Nothing I see on The Hub shows an age restriction, and it does show pricing for Ages 3-9.If I recall she's about six or seven. If she has an interest in either science or plants (or maybe dinosaurs) and in inquiring mind I think she would really enjoy it.

Also AAA, AP, DVC and Military get 15% discount up to 10 people; cast discount is 50%.

She will be 5 this next trip, but you were close. :D: She loves fish and bugs so that might interest her. Inquiring mind is an understatement with that one. SIGH, she is too quick sometimes. LOL

GOODY discounts. I didnt even think about that. That will save us about 6$ off the $40 we would spend with the AP discount. Gotta get used to the AP stuff still.

[vixen101485]

Since Edit is being ornery I will add it here.

thank you Chessy. You rock.

Remind me to tell you about the ding dong I spoke to yesterday at AAA when I called to get a quote on a package deal and what she said about the tickets. LORDY>>>>DUH!

According to the Behind The Seeds tour on WDW's site:

Children of all ages are encouraged to participate (must be accompanied by an adult); strollers are provided for small children.

That tour is one of many I want to do one day.

Talking about the WDW site, are the Flash objects loading slow for anyone else? It takes a while for them to load for me. Also, the sound on the homepage skips on me. I haven't had any problems with my sound anywhere else and the sound on Epcot's page worked fine. Another problem I had is that on the homepage uses so many browser resources or something I can't switch to another tab, I have to either close that tab or go to another part of the site. With a little testing it seems it is the sound that screws it up. I can switch tabs before the sound starts but not after. I'm on a fast connection and am not downloading anything so I know it isn't my connection and while it isn't the greatest machine around my computer is more than powerful enough for anything a website can throw at it.

[vixen101485]

That site has always been an absolute pain to use easily even with broadband internet it acts slow and stupid.

[Shorty82]

The new site seems even worse about it than before. I'm not liking what little I've seen of the new site so far.

[Theme Park Where]

I'll mention the flash problem to my brother. He's one of the managers at disney.com and his team is responsible for the parks portion of the site.
