FAQ’s

Okay, it’s true I haven’t received any FAQ’s since I’ve just started this blog so until I actually here some FAQ’s I’ll make them up as I go along. I can imagine some FAQ’s are probably questions I had prior to visiting Florida so I’m going to ask and answer them here for you in case you also had the same questions as I did. Of course if your reading this and you don’t see an answer to your question then please go ahead and ask and I’ll see if I can answer it for you:

What can I do with a baby at Disneyworld, Universal, Sea World, etc.?

Well, you can take your baby on any ride that does not have a height restriction. I bought an Ergo baby carrier and put my 10 mth old in it and took her on anything I thought looked appropriate. I absolutely love my Ergo Carrier as there is no barrier between you and your baby which means if you are still nursing your baby you can latch your baby on while walking around the park so you don’t miss out of the fun! I spent most of the time walking around with my baby in her carrier with no one the wiser.

What about taking a baby on the noisy rides or shows?

We bought some baby ear muffs to use to muffle the sound while sitting in on the shows and going on some of the noisier rides. We bought ours at an industrial equipment store. They had to be special ordered and were under $20. I did find some on the web but they were pricey especially with shipping.

Did you know about Mousesavers.com?

Yes, I did! I studied those newsletters every month. I highly suggest if you are planning any type of Disney holiday to sign up for this newsletter asap. It not only gives you tons of tips but it alerts you to deals. I bought my tickets for Disney from another website recommended by these guys (www.undercovertourist.com) and was able to buy them at a slight discount (a discount that is less than going to straight to the site as undercover offers an even bigger discount if you use mousesavers code). I was also able to purchase the tickets before the price was raised as mousesavers alerted me that the price was going up. Mousesavers does not only give advice/recommendations for Disney but also Universal, Seaworld, and some of the dinner theatres too.

Do you recommend staying on Disney property?

If you have the money to spend on staying on Disney property then go for it. If it is costing you a fortune and you can’t afford to stay there or are frugal like me then I say stay off property. Most properties offer shuttles of some kind to get you to the parks. Once you are at one of the parks you can ride Disney transit for free. The only advantage I see to staying on Disney property is that you can get into the parks an hour early or stay an hour late on certain days. I was so exhausted that I would never have taken advantage of this had I stayed on Disney property. My parents stayed on Disney property along with my brother and his family and they never took advantage of this offer either. The other advantage/reason why one might want to stay on Disney property would be to keep oneself in the ‘Disney’ spirit.

Do you like owning a timeshare?

So far I do. I haven’t owned it for very long so maybe I’ll change my mind.

Where have you traveled using your timeshare?

Since I haven’t had it for very long I haven’t traveled a huge amount with it as of yet but hopefully I will travel more and more and will blog about it. So far, I’ve traveled to Kissimmee, Florida, Parksville, BC, & Victoria, BC.

Where have you traveled?

I’ve traveled to Vancouver, BC; Victoria, BC; Edmonton, AB; Anaheim, CA; San Diego, CA; Mexico; England, Scotland, Spain, Germany, Belgium, and Netherlands. I am planning on entering posts on each of these cities at some point in the near future but I am a busy mother of a toddler and teenager AND I work full time.

What makes you think you are an expert about traveling?

I’m not an expert but I love to travel and talk about my travels so why not blog about it?

Are you paid by anyone to write or recommend products or hotels?

Nope!
