Historical Traveler Reviews Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
Excelent Hilton
Excelent hotel. Room was clean. Early checkin not a problem with great service. Nice pools. Walking distance to Downtown Disney and Pleasure Island.
Great Hotel
I checked out early of the Hotel Riu Orlando because it was disgusting and then went to the Hilton. We were very pleased. Rooms were large, nice, and clean and the Hotel is very close to Pleasure Island, perfect if you don't feel like driving. The only minor complaint is that the doors are very thin, and you can hear the kids running down the hall to go to Disney at 7am. However, I would definitely stay there again.
Hilton has great access to Downtown Disney
The hotel looks dated on the inside and outside; very 1980's. I was not impressed by the pools. The lobby is beautiful. I went to one of the restaurants, Finn's Grill, which, I only went to because there was a coupon "Buy 1 entree, get the 2nd entree 1/2 price" in the Hilton Passport they hand out when you check in. I was very impressed with the entire dessert and dinner. Wonderful gourment cuisine for $80. The dessert was cheaper and more exquisite than a regular banana split at Baskin Robbins. This meal was better than anything we ate in the 3 days there. I didn't like the food at Wolfgang Puck's & Bongos in Downtown Disney, but Portobello's was acceptable. The other restaurant we ate at was The Royal Castle in the Magic Kingdom, where it was 3 thumbs down, despite how they call it the best table service restaurant in Disney!The snack fridge in the room was ok, because for the summer the prices were half price so this was reasonable. Anyway, we're on vacation only a few times a year, so it's ok to splurge on overpriced goodies especially if you don't have a car to drive to the local supermarket. We even splurge and paid for $10 pay per view movies [3 times]. All in all, it was a wonderful trip not because of the dated and overcrowded Disney parks, but because there was a big selection of places to eat at the hotel and Downtown Disney, which luckily was 5 minute walk away. We also had fun renting a motor boat in the lagoon and watching a movie at the AMC theater. Treasure Island and Finn's Grill made this Hilton a great place to be!
Buyer Beware
On June 16th I went to Hilton website to make reservations. There were three choices for rooms at this hotel. The Standard Room, the Suites and the Executive Accommodations. The Executive Accommodations included:Enjoy exclusive comfort in our Executive Level Rooms, featuring upgraded amenities and services. You'll also have access to our Executive Lounge. Take advantage of private Concierge services (from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.), and complimentary continental breakfast and evening hors d'oeuvres. Treat yourself to daily, unlimited light snacks and beverages (non-alcoholic drinks only) from 11 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Additionally Executive Level guests enjoy high-speed Internet access and private check-in and checkout services. What's more, these rooms include upgraded bathroom products and plush bathrobes. Based on the information from your website I booked two Executive Accommodations rooms. Conformation number 3162324168.When I arrived at the Hotel on July 2nd 2003, I was assigned two rooms 216 and 217. The rooms have a direct view of the rooms air conditioning units and had none of the above amenities. EX Robes and High Speed Internet access.I went to the front desk who told me he had no other rooms at this time and to check in the morning. Well in the morning they assigned me two new rooms 166 and 167. These rooms again did not have the additional amenities. At this point I did not want to discuss it anymore since my children wanted to do to Disney. Room 167 had a leak and parts of the ceiling fell on the chair. The maid reported this. Two days later they fixed the leak.For being a 4 Star hotel I think you should look into this.
This is not what I perceive to be 4 Star hotel.
Great Place to stay
Stayed 5/23 to 5/26. Only 2 small negative comments to say about this place. 1st no snack or soda machines on the floors. Instead Hilton desided to put minibars in the room. The was no price guide as to what the items cost in the minibar but I'm sure they were all overpriced. I would have preferred an empty minibar so that I could use it to keep my own snacks and sodas cold for the next day. Even the 24hr snack shop in the lobby was overpriced. So my 2nd negative comment would be about the overpriced minibar and snack shop. I know a lot of travelers prefer to buy their own snacks and store them in the refrigerator for the next day.Other than that it was a great hotel with a great staff and great pool. I would stay again.
I Give this hotel a B
This hotel had all the amenities that a big upscale hotel should have. It was clean and the views were very nice. The location was hard to beat and they had a shuttle bus to the popular theme parks. The pool area is absolutely beautiful and it has a fantastic Jacuzzi. I didn't like the restaurants, however. The Benehana, which is located in the hotel, was nice, but the other restaurants lacked appeal. Overall this is a nice hotel. I wouldn't stay here again, however. The hotel is too big for my tastes.
Loved this hotel
We really enjoyed this hotel. The pool was great and relaxing and the spa tub very tropical. The Benihana restaurant was fun for our whole family. We did use the shuttle and it was smooth a bit lengthy because of other area pick ups. Our room was a little far from the pool. The in room snacks/ refreshments were very overpriced. We drove about a mile to Lake Buena Vista and got our snacks and a small disposable cooler from an area grocer which was much more our price range. Enjoy your trip!!!
Incredibly accomodating!
Oct/02. With three children & my husband intially at a conference we booked a dlx rm with 2 Qn beds. My husband ends up having to complete a sales deal (meaning that he will be stuck in the room while we're at Disney) so I went down to the front desk and they changed our room to a huge executive with a full dining/conference table, fridge, micro, lounge area and a king murphy bed with down comforter for the same price. For an extra $40, they gave us a connecting rm for my kids. Downstairs, there's a kid-friendly restaurant. My three boys were thourghly entertained by a hired clown in a huge adjoining room. There were movies, tatoos, balloons, and goofy fun. They could either eat with us or have their meal brought into the play room. It was great. The pool was safe and warm and the whole hotel was spotless. We had tower service so breakfast was included and all day snacks. At night there were hot and cold appetizers and milk and cookies before bed. Take advantage of the fridge full of soda, juice and water. Grab some water for the park as you'll need it. This hotel was also across the street from Marketplace and my 2 yr old could walk it. This place in a picky Mom's opinion was an easy 5*!
Transportation to WDW and housekeeping disappointing
Previous reviews I read on this hotel commented on how clean it was. That's not what I experienced. Upon checkin I found hair in the bathtub and on the bathroom floor and a used bandage on the floor by the bed. The bandage stayed there for 3 days. One of the water glasses had dried pop in it. The housekeeper had a bad week I guess!
The transportation to WDW was disappointing. It was on time about half of the time it was always filled past capacity. The capacity problem is to be expected but the unreliability is disappointing. Also, once when the driver picked us up there was fresh vomit on two of the seats. The driver continued his route stopping at two more hotels before dropping us off at the Magic Kingdom with the smell making us all miserable. We vowed to never take the Hilton bus again and relied from then on on taxis and the WDW bus system.
On the up side the view was wonderful. We had a view of Downtown Disney, Pleasure Island, and in the distance we could even see EPCOT. The rooms are a pretty good size and the beds are comfortable. Best of all I got it for the same price as the All Star Resort using Priceline.
Would I stay there again? No. The bus service is so inconvenient that it ate up a good deal of our time and the smelly incident I referred to has turned me off forever on this hotel.
Great Choice!
We picked this hotel for the first week of our honeymoon mainly because we didn't want to hire a car - we made the right choice! It's looking a little tired from the outside but has everything you could need. Location is perfect -its within walking distance of downtown Disney, the free shuttle buses are excellent and the rooms are very comfortable. The only negative aspect is that it is pretty expensive to eat and drink in the hotel - but what hotel isn't? It also wouldn't be very suitable for children as there is no "Disney atmosphere" there. I would definitely go back if the rate was right!

Universal fun
... flown having so much fun. We explored the other Universal park and took some pictures, enjoying the sun again. The second day we didn't go on the water rides though, after getting completely soaked on the first day. We were covered head to toe, as if we had been in the shower fully clothed!
Luckily we were really looking forward to getting to New York so weren't too upset for leaving Disney, where we had had a superb week!
From Greyhound drama to Sheraton Luxury
... t save my work so I went through and deleted some photos from yesterday's bus trip. That took a couple of hours.
The scenery was a bit boring. I couldn't see forward because of the chair in front of me or out the front side window of the bus because of the reflection. Looking sideways out my window at the roadside woods rushing by at 70mph got tiring after a while. The bush was interesting, mostly flooded forest some ...

... were plenty of multi million dollar mansions, lots of them almost a hundred years old. It was interesting to see how the old money families used to live in this area and of course it gives us something to aim for! We then drove out to St Cloud and Kissimme for lunch, stopping at an amazing place for Philly Cheese Steak subs. A real heart attack on a plate though! We'd planned to explore some more ...

"Every Time"
LIKE WHOA! There are a lot of BIG game releases this week eh?!
I really want an XBOX ONE. Really, I'm a long term HALO fanboy, it's why I keep going xbox. I also have to say that while yes, I've been excited for Dragon Age Inquisition and Assassin's Creed Unity, I have to add that I watched the FPS mode videos for next-gen Grand Theft Auto V, and my mind was blown. It was beautiful and literally… a game changer.
That being said, I have many items I need to replace before I consider a tech upgrade on the gaming front. My TV cacked out finally yesterday and the 360 is on it's deathbed. It's always like that though, all or nothing I suppose.
Last week was pretty tough, I didn't get any drawing done what-so-ever. Had a lot of garbage to deal with all at once last week, a very sudden invasion from our apartment admins, someone in our complex has some sort of infestation, so we're probably effed in that regard. Then all my brake lights had to be replaced and as those quick fixes usually go, it turned out to be a much longer project than intended. To finish off the week I had what I thought was a pretty good interview with a company that uses building toys to teach kids about science. I was hailed as a top candidate, but I must've fallen short in my second interview. I'm pretty bummed, but these things happen. Laura told me to look at it as a sign from the universe that I just need to refocus on my long term goal.
I was lucky enough to pick up a holiday job at a local arcade in the mean time, though. It's pretty fun,and super easy, and pays a couple bills we were in danger of falling behind on. I have one more holiday commission to take care of in the next couple weeks, and I need to (like I said) refocus. Making today's strip took a lot out of me. It was surprisingly difficult to pick back up after completely losing momentum. It was also very disgruntling to not produce anything last week, so I suppose that means I'm getting to a point where I HAVE to do it, it's become a compulsion to make this comic. So there's that…
I think that does it for now.

Product Details
Would you like to give feedback on images?.
Creative and outrageous fun for the whole family. View larger.
Clues change, evolve, and stretch as each player adds to the scrolls. View larger.
From there, all players must write, draw, and interpret what they see on the card for each timed round. Figure out which picture leads to your original card, or get voted as having the funniest caption or image to gain points. The results are almost always hilarious and the game is wonderfully addictive.
A Built-In Element of Surprise
Thanks to the Scribble Scrolls, players will have to rely on their imaginations to win. Scribblish allows each person only one clue--either a caption or an image--to create the text or image to match what's on the card.
Much like in the childhood game of Telephone, clues change, evolve, and stretch further from their original captions as the players interpret what they see. You'll be surprised at how easy it is to turn this into that!
Two Ways to Win
You don't have to be Picasso to win this drawing game. Players can claim victory by correctly guessing which final image comes from their original card, or by being voted as having the best drawing or caption. Because each picture or comment is done by a different person, each player has an even chance of figuring out which scroll is theirs.
Players can reward the clowns and artists in the group by placing tokens next to the caption or image they like best.
What's in the Box
60 Scribblish cards, timer, six Scribble Scrolls, tablet of playing sheets, six-sided die, 12 tokens, and instruction booklet.

I started writing this story soon after finishing the first draft of The Curse. Then I made the worst mistake involving Return To Origin. I stopped less than halfway through to begin editing The Curse. Since then, the writing process has sputtered at best. There were other issues, but they're mostly resolved now. However, that's no excuse to stop writing a novel in favor of editing another one.
In December, I have another decision to make. With four novels somewhere in the editing pipeline, should I participate in the April and July Camp NaNoWriMo? If I had to decide now, the answer would be no. However, it depends on how much time the upcoming edits and revamps take.
Speaking of, I'm currently revamping my novella, Rickshaw, New Mexico. So far, there are some minor rephrases and clarifications that were needed. The challenge will be my novel, The Curse, which is getting an overhaul. The story will remain intact. However, as my two-star reviewer said, it needed another edit. He was right and that's what's happening. After Rickshaw, The Hunted is next, followed by The Acts of 1.
Now for some sports trivia...
- Congrats to the Kansas City Royals for winning Game 1 of the World Series. This is their first World Series game they won in 10,587 days.
- Since we're counting days, here's another one. It has been 38,725 days since the Chicago Cubs last won the World Series (1908). The days continue.
- There are quite a few for football. Here are the teams who never made it to the Super Bowl, with the number of days since their last championship: Detroit Lions - 20,752 days (1957) and the Cleveland Browns - 18,197 (1964). The Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars were born in the Super Bowl era, but never played in one.
- For one of the Super Bowl contenders, it has been 19,659 days since the Philadelphia Eagles won an NFL championship (1960).
- It's also been a long drought for three former AFL champions. The Buffalo Bills last won the AFL title 17,833 days ago (1965). It's been 18,554 days for the 1963 AFL Champion San Diego Chargers. Finally, the Houston Oilers (now Tennessee Titans) won their last AFL title 19,296 days ago (1961).
- One of the most famous Super Bowl games, Super Bowl III, it has been 16,720 days since the New York Jets won their only championship.
Counting all these days makes one thirsty. So who's drinking the beer in the cellar in the NFL? Why that would be this week's Kings of the Cellar, the 0-6 Oakland Raiders, who are on a 12 game losing streak and haven't won one since November 17 against the Houston Texans. This week's honorable mention goes to my 2-4 New Orleans Saints. This is a talent laden team who has performed like the New Orleans Saints teams of the 1970's. By no means is the season over nor have the Saints collapsed as past teams have. Unless they get their act together, they will be mentioned here again.
Here are historic scores for teams playing each other this week, October 23,
1955 Chicago Cardinals 24 - Philadelphia 24
1983 - Denver 14 - San Diego 6
1988 Minnesota 49 - Tampa Bay 20
1994 Denver 20 - San Diego 15
2011 Atlanta 23 - Detroit 16
2011 Houston 41 - Tennessee 7
Have a great day!!!

National League Preview from The Sports Network
Tuesday, May 1st (All times Eastern)
Milwaukee Brewers (11-12) at San Diego Padres (7-17), 10:05 p.m.
Probable Starting Pitchers: Milwaukee - Shaun Marcum (1-1, 4.12) San Diego - Edinson Volquez (0-2, 3.60)
(Sports Network) - Reigning NL MVP Ryan Braun will try to stay locked in when he leads the Milwaukee Brewers against the San Diego Padres tonight in the second portion of a three-game series from Petco Park.
Braun had the first three-homer game of his career in last night's 8-3 win in the series opener and matched a career-high with six runs batted in. Braun also tripled in the game to help Milwaukee to its second win in a row after losing three straight.
"It's an extremely challenging game that we play. You know you are going to deal with a lot of failure and a lot of adversity," said Braun, who has six homers in his last nine games. "When you have a special night like that you try to enjoy it and it's that much more fun and enjoyable when your team wins the game."
Alex Gonzalez had two RBI and Rickie Weeks scored twice, while Randy Wolf earned the win by holding the Padres to three runs on nine hits and three walks through five innings. Wolf also struck out three batters. Kameron Loe, Francisco Rodriguez and Tim Dillard combined to throw four shutout innings of relief to preserve the victory.
The Brewers are 2-2 on a nine-game road trip and will send right-hander Shaun Marcum to the mound Tuesday. Marcum has posted back-to-back no-decisions and is coming off a 7-5 loss versus Houston on Wednesday, as he gave up four runs -- three earned -- and eight hits over five innings. Marcum, who is 1-1 with a 4.13 earned run average in four starts, has never lost to San Diego in two career starts. He is 2-0 with a 4.85 ERA in this series.
San Diego opened a nine-game homestand on a sour note, losing for a third straight time and for the fifth time in seven tries.
Padres starter Joe Wieland fell to 0-4 on the season after he surrendered five runs -- three earned -- and five hits in five innings. Wieland allowed two of Braun's homers, but did fan eight batters.
"This was a great learning experience for me," said Wieland. "A great hitter like (Braun) is going to make adjustment pitch to pitch and at-bat to at-bat."
Yonder Alonso had two hits and an RBI, and Jason Bartlett knocked in a run for the Padres, who are 5-10 at home this season and sit last in the National League West standings. San Diego will also host Miami and Colorado.
Taking the mound for the Friars tonight will be newcomer Edinson Volquez. The former Cincinnati Reds starter is 0-2 with a 3.60 ERA in five starts this season with his new club and was last in action during Thursday's 2-1 win over Washington. He did not record a decision against the Nationals and fired seven innings of one-run ball in his best outing of the season.
Volquez struck out seven Washington players and has fanned at least five batters in four of his five starts. The righty will make his ninth career start against Milwaukee and owns a 3-2 record with a 5.94 ERA in the first eight appearances.
San Diego lost three of five meetings with Milwaukee last season.

MANITOWOC, Wis. (AP) -- Frozen waterways have left some of Wisconsin's ducks with little to eat during what seems to be an unusually cold winter.
HTR Media reports an animal rehabilitation clinic in Cato has taken in more than a dozen hungry birds this winter.
Some of the state's ducks don't migrate and continue to dive into water for food during winter months. When shallow waters freeze over, the birds usually head to the shores of Lake Michigan to dive for minnows there.
That might be a good plan during most winters, but this year, Lake Michigan is three-quarters frozen.
Duck rehabilitator Susan Theys says that forces ducks into the middle of the lake, where many can't dive deep enough to reach food.

text: POPSUGAR Beauty beauty tips How to Remove Makeup Stains How to Get Makeup Stains Out of Practically Any Surface by Jessica Cruel 11/04/13 39 Reactions 1.3K Shares Print 1.1K 99 58 20 0 You may know the baby-oil trick to remove product when you make a makeup misstep. But what do you do if your spill has gotten on your clothes, the carpet, or the bathroom tiles? Get the solutions for reversing a variety of makeup messes — including lipstick-stained collars and self-tanners gone awry — when you read more. 1. Lipstick: Spritz your kiss imprint with hair spray and let sit for 10 minutes. Then, dab with a sponge, and throw in the wash. If your clothing is dry-clean only, try using a piece of tape to transfer the stain away. You can also use baby powder, chalk, or baking soda to remove oil- and wax-based lipsticks. 2. Eyeliner: Did someone leave a note on your mirror in eyeliner? Reach for salt to remove the marks before using standard cleaner (this trick also works for lipstick stains on wine glasses). 3. Waterproof mascara: For long-lasting makeup formulations, try blotting the stain with makeup remover like Philosophy Just Release Me ($18). Check the label to ensure the formula you're using is oil-free, though, or you'll end up with an even bigger mess. 4. Foundation: Pretreat powder and liquid-foundation spills with a clarifying product like shaving cream or shampoo. Both of these toiletries have cleaning agents that should break through the stain before you wash. 5. Self-tanner: To reverse self-tanner stains left on sheets or clothing, first rinse the affected area under cold water. Then use a sponge and dish detergent, working on the spot from the outside in, to cut the oil in the tanning formula. You can even use hydrogen peroxide to remove the orange tones from the fabric (but make sure to spot-check first to ensure the fabric's color won't lift). You can also use glycerin as a final resort. Note: All of these suggestions are for treating stains immediately. In addition, be careful not to dry fabrics until the blotch is removed because heat can set the stain.

Yeah, I think people kind of over-hyped it. It was all very well done, but not really $200+ worth of value? I guess it depends how much you really like the other properties at Universal (as much as I like Dr. Seuss, it + Harry Potter do not a theme park make!)
Sure! I use a Canon Rebel T2i and I'm addicted to my 50mm. Seriously. I do most of my editing in photoshop; I have a set of actions that I really like using (actions are sooo much fun to play with! I think I like editing more than the actual taking part, because you can really create something! I tend to follow a lot of photo blogs - wedding especially - to really get coloring/angles/etc. ideas). This trip was really the first time I took my DSLR 'out of the box' (minus some cat photos) and it was definitely not as easy as I thought it would be.
I know! I like reading the really popular TRs but I'm terrible at commenting because I need to read everything and then fall behind reading everyone else's comments! I always end up talking about myself a lot too, so I usually end up asking lots of questions. Idk, I think it's really easy to get reminded of your experiences at the same ride/location as in the TR and then I always want to share it right then.
I would DIE for Star Wars or Lord of the Rings. I mean, Jedi Training is so popular, they could obviously expand it and STILL have people jockeying for spots. Or, you know, I've heard Star Wars weekends are slightly popular. I think that both LotR and SW have the same richness and diversity of landscapes of Avatar but they both (George Lucas moneygrubbing aside) have much more heart.
I'll sit in my little corner and keep pulling for Beastly Kingdom or Studio Ghibli (um, hello, Cat Bus ride??) land in Animal Kingdom. I still have a really long time to be in denial about Avatarland!!
I'm not sure what I did to the machine and not many people were using it… I would hate to be a FP CM if the machines break that easily!
I like old-fashioned expressions! I'm a naturally wordy person so all the ye olden time phrases (or insults, ha) are so much fun to use because they're so descriptive!.
I like all the theming and hidden details in Liberty Square; I wish (now) that I had taken some more time to hunt out things like the lanterns and the sidewalk details. I think those details are what really set Liberty Square apart from the other lands in MK.
I really, really wanted to try Pooh – if only to touch the (very unsanitary) honey wall. I never got to do any of the interactive queues on this trip and I'm kind of sad that I missed them! It's just so much faster to cut through the graveyard on HM and, well, Winnie the Pooh was a no-go. I'm excited for the new Peter Pan one, though. I think that will turn out super cute.

My list of five biggest temptations in life goes something like this: chocolate chip muffins, a sale at Lush (addicted to their Flying Foxes shower gel right now. AMAZING), kittens, bookstores, and a walk-on line at it's a small world.
Small World is totally an E ticket ride for me. It's got everything: family history, a children's book that taught me how to read, world history, World's Fair history, some catchy tunes, boats, animatronics, and a certain panache that comes from having glitter as your main accessory.
So there's me, wandering through Fantasyland, making sure the Big Thunder Mountain Fastpasses were stored safely in my camera bag (for the fifth time, yup!) and halfheartedly debating getting a Fastpass for Peter Pan or Winnie the Pooh as a just-in-case. And I saw it.
The one thing I'm helpless against.
An empty Small World queue
Clearly I am the type of guests commando/touring plan guests love. Because I will happily waste a morning in a meet and greet and on small world all for one (well two, but the other is for Bear) Big Thuunder Fastpass and not even a ride on Peter Pan. You're welcome!
Some time in the past twenty-four months, Disney decided to mess with the small world queue – making the entrance the exit? Moving around the little poles that hold up the barriers? Whichever, I promptly got lost in the maze of ropes. Luckily another mass of small world fans (a whole THREE PEOPLE BOO YAH) came along and I sheepishly headed down towards the clock face.
Inside Small World
(this is a really weird crop..)
I really wanted to explain that it wasn't like this before!! Honest! but settled for boarding the happiest cruise that ever sailed (and, incidentally, the only cruise I ever thought I'd go on, period).
I had the boat pretty much to myself; there was a young family beside me who was not up-to-date with their small world fun facts. But I guess we all have different talents – I can explain all the scenes inside the ride, they can navigate a queue line. I tuned them out and started practicing dark(-ish) ride pictures. I figured this would be the best time because Bear wasn't there to ask what I was doing or – if it turned out to be a dismal failure – why I wasn't doing it on other rides.
So the moment you've all been waiting for: a severely abbreviated photographic journey throughout (part) of it's a small world!
Pink Blossoms
Rhino + Zebra
Birdcage 1
Happy Cactus
Tiki Man
Eventually we all had to disembark and surrender the next boat to the eager crowds (of five people). And in under twenty seconds I was out of small world, blinking in the (relative) brightness. Bear had called while I was on the ride, so I tried to reach him (fail) while noting it was getting close to the Fastpass window. I was off –
To Peter Pan!

Dude, I know EXACTLY what you mean about the queue at It's a Small World! The first time I went on it after it was changed, I freaked out and had no idea what was going on. So bizarre.

Hahaha. Yeah, they switched the entrance and exit! Don't worry, I was confused at first too. They switched it between June and December of 2010, aka my first two trips, and I was like, "IT WASN'T LIKE THIS SIX MONTHS AGO!"
Your dark(ish) ride pictures are great!

I LOVE dancing cactus. It would be priceless to sit in on some of the development meetings when they were figuring out what characters would be put in small world. Leopard with umbrella? Why not! Happy cactus? Needs to be cooler - add in a guitar.

I'm watching High School Musical (.. alone, at 9:15 on a Friday because Bear had a doctor's appointment really early this morning and is sleeping) and OMG Zac Efron is a baby. He's so young and Justin Beiber-y!
Also skinny scarves is a terrible look (this means you, random extra grooving out in the background).

I really want to try the Karma Melt/Phoenix Rising bath bomb at some point, but I don't know if I could deal with the (literal) glitter explosion that results. They just sound so fun!

Ok! I am finally here & reading & ready to comment! Let me just first say that I did come over and read the first couple of posts AGES ago, but never commented, and never made it back (like the horrible lurker I am) but now I am here & ready!!
First off, thats awesome that the cm found you a room that was ready! Port Orleans is on this years lists of resorts to stay at, so Ill be sure to be there sometime! I wish I could say anything about any other part of IoA but I was so keen on getting over to Harry Potter that I barely took in anything else! I will agree that it does look kinda ominous from across the lake!!
I definitely agree that an expansion is needed, we made our trip down to WWOHP when it had just opened, and as magical an awesome as it was, it was kind of blah. Im SOOO hoping for a kick-a** Gringotts coaster too!! Watching that movie in 3-D I was all WHOA! THIS WOULD BE AWESOME!!) And your link is the first *actual* expansion news Ive heard! YAY!
I know what you mean about it being movie Hogwarts, I mean, the movies were great and all, but theres just so much that wasnt included in them that was in the books. Take McGonagall for instance, especially in book 5! (I love book 5 with all my heart, but really dont like the movie these things happen)
I personally LOVED FJ, oh so much, and am really sad that we only did it once. However Sylvia & I will have the chance to go again in November! I definitely understand not liking it though. We got breakfast from the 3 Broomsticks & I actually liked it a lot. They have a plate thats all fruit, and then a couple of scones, which was a super nice change from the heavy greasy breakfast you usually find! I LOVE all the shops there, I find it really feels like youre actually in there. The one thing I really didnt like, was that nothing was labeled for prices! (which I get, I mean, theyre probably all outrageously expensive, BUT if Im considering buying something, and theres no price, Im less likely to ask, and more likely to just put it down)
We really didnt explore anything else in IoA, and from what I can tell, we really didnt miss much?! Im just not much of a thrill ride person, I love Disney, but there rides are so different, that they make them awesome! I just think I wouldnt find anything to do in IoA?
Im pretty sure half the reason I want to stay at PO is to get the beignets!! Gah! The Grand Floridian is SUCH a gorgeous resort! I feel like I want to stay there, but I want to save it for something *super* special (*cough*disneywedding*cough*) but seriously I would die to see the inside of the Wedding Pavillion! Yay! Magic Kingdom! That really is when the whole thing begins, when you see that castle & do the walk down Main St!
Aw man! Thats a GREAT interaction with Jasmine & Aladdin! Gotta love it! Your Adventureland pics are great, I love it! Im definitely one to go with the flow, and when I toured solo, I just did what I wanted! I did rope drop at MK, and headed straight through to meet the Fairy Godmother! Haha, thats the benefit of being alone, you do just what you want!!

I trekked all the way over to Peter Pan from small world, stuck my key card in the fastpass machine..
And got another 'this is not a valid FastPass' Fastpass.
Rats. At this point, I had more not valid FastPasses than actual FastPasses. I pulled out my phone to check the time since apparently Disney and I sync up to different atomic clocks. I had a missed call; apparently Bear had phoned back while I was on small world.
Since I had nothing else to do, I called back, winning the game of phone tag when he picked up. We – Bear, Mr. T and I – chatted for a bit about their morning (monorail ride before finally heading out to the car) and mine (roughly as productive, detailed above).
"So what are you up to next?" Bear asked.
"Not much, just waiting for the next FastPass."
"Space Mountain?" Why not? Peter Pan didn't want to give me FastPasses, so I might as well wander down there and try again. I agreed and said my good-byes to the boys before heading off (this is when I should've grabbed something for Pooh, but Tomorrowland was calling to me).
I love Tomorrowland the best out of all the lands in Magic Kingdom. Fantasyland is a very close second but there are just so many strollers. I've never been in a packed Tomorrowland so there may be hordes of strollers that do descend, which makes that an unfair deciding point. At least my two favorites are connected by a path, making it easy to spend all of my time on one side of the park.
By the time I made it to Space Mountain, I still couldn't get FastPasses, thanks to Disney's very slow clocks.
As much as I love Tomorrowland, pretty much the only two things I'd ever done there were Space Mountain, Buzz Lightyear the ride, and Buzz Lightyear the meet'n'greet. So it was pretty much predetermined that I would gradually walk back to Buzz while waiting for a FastPass.
And if the line was a walk-on, who was I to turn down that chance? Especially since I would never be able to get pictures if I was riding with Bear (we may be a tad competitive).
And if I was taking pictures, I wouldn't be playing, which was almost as good as not riding it at all, since the point is to play things. Having justified a quick spin, I headed in.
I know there are lots of complaints about this ride as well, but I love it. For me, I'm so horrible at shooting games anyway that it doesn't matter that I have no idea where I'm shooting. The fun comes from sabotaging your knows-how-to-shoot-a-gun partner to keep them from getting a high score. Any points I manage to get are a bonus.
But I still snuck in a few practice shots after loading. Bear is usually freakishly good at this game, so extra shots for me will do nothing the close the gap in our scores.
When I finally put down the blaster and picked up my camera, I was surprised. I'm usually way too focused on my strategy to pick up on a lot of the details inside Buzz.
I mean, why would I look at a giant space dinosaur? It doesn't have a Z-target on it.
And the colors! I'm a huge fan of purple + neon in general, but the Buzz ride really pulls it off. It's just such a space-y, alien-y color combo.
Truly, Buzz Lightyear is the spiritual successor of it's a small world with all of the wacky things jammed in there. Why does Zurg create robotic, wind-up T-Rexes? Because he can.
The only thing that could make the ride better would be a cameo by Mira.
Despite my lack of any effort whatsoever, Zurg was defeated and the Little Green Men were safe once again. Hurrah!
After graciously accepting my (completely undeserved) thanks from Buzz, I disembarked and headed back over to Space Mountain. This time I was successful and managed to snag two Space Mountain FastPasses. The return window was actually quite short, so I loitered in all the Tomorrowland gift shops (Auntie Gravity is a favorite, despite my taking forever and a day to recognize the pun; Merchant of Venus comes a close second in my affections). I grabbed two Buzz Lightyear passes and decided to take the long way 'round back to Fantasyland.

I really like Port Orleans from a have-no-kids point of view. I dont mind a long walk (prefer it, actually because its less noisy) and its so nice to have so much open space! Plus its recently renovated and they actually have nice bedspreads now! I dont know who picked out the old duvets but some of them were really awful.
From a ride/technology perspective I liked FJ, but I thought the story was really lacking. Like they knew it was the only ride that would EVER fit in there so they jammed about five different ride storylines together? I think Gringotts will be WAY better in that regard since theyll be able to be more choosy (also Gringotts is AMAZING and I want it to be real). Im still hoping theyll expand some of the big buildings for explanation. Ill even buy more butterbeer just so they have the money to do it right!! (Seriously, Universal, I would spend all day in a Hogwarts museum/gift shop and I would spend money! Just let me walk around! There must be tons of old movie props you could requisition!!)
Yeah, IoA was kind of dull. Im sure that if theres lots of people around you can use up more time in line but we hit everything super fast. And there wasnt any good snack carts around. Or shopping. I mean, we saw all of the shows in the Lost Continent and we are not theme-park-show-goers. We couldve gotten the two-park tickets but there arent any franchises in Universal that we were dying to go see either. I understand why people like Universal/IoA but I dont think I would say its better than Disney. Its just too amusement-park-y for my tastes, but Harry Potter is definitely a step in the right direction.
Oh beignets. Half the reason my boyfriend wants to go to Disneyland is that theyre available inside the park! And hes requested next time that we actually stay in FQ so well be closer. I honestly dont know how people go home with extra snack credits when therere beignets to buy.
I really like the lobby and exterior of GFlo but I was disappointed by some room pictures I saw. It wasnt quite what I was expecting? They were kind of plain, which was surprising since I know how fancy the lobby bathroom is! I think the new DVC building should be so pretty and more what I had imagined (and then maybe theyll reno the main building too! Not that Ill have the free cash available to stay there for aaages). I feel like if I ever stayed in GFlo I'd just swan around, acting all fancy all day and never make it into the parks! And I'd be keeping an eye out for a bride using Cinderella's carriage because those ponies are adorable.
I do love the wedding pavilion and shamelessly stalk the weddings board looking at pictures. I love the little peek of Cinderellas castle you get! Disney is kind of local for Bears family so it wouldnt really be a destination location Though Im sure the price would be astronomical! I mean, if you're going to have a Disney wedding you might as well go all out and really have a Disney wedding, y'know?
How lucky to see the Fairy Godmother! I was in Fantasyland in between the Tremaine/Fairy Godmother sets so I got to see a little of them. I really like that they bring out some secondary characters from Cinderella; I guess theres more leniency in their personalities so theyre way more fun to interact with! Being in charge of determining whos available for meetngreets must be the best job at Disney. Though Id probably ruin the entire budget by letting pretty much every available character roam the parks!

I'm glad you took pictures on this ride (which are again, great) because I don't think I would ever notice the details on it. Um, wind up dinosaur guy? That's awesome! Also, he reminds me of Reptar from the Rugrats.
Look at you and your SUCCESS in getting fastpasses! Hahah, very nice.

Your pictures of Buzz are awesome!! You've all but convinced me to take my 50mm. I was just going to bring my Tamron 17-50, but now I'm nervous about how I'll handle dark rides and whatnot without a prime.
I wonder why you kept getting the non-valid Fastpasses? That's so weird. :/ Were you ever able to get a normal one throughout the trip, or was it glitchy the whole time?
