It will be myself, my husband, and my twin 13 year old girls. They are going to wear crazy outfits, so also, any ideas for their crazy outfits? And what are some things we must do/see/get? Are there any like hidden tips or tricks that not EVERYONE knows about. Any info would be great! We are very excited to go to Disney!

Should we buy things (as souvenirs) from the parks, Downtown Disney, or the outlet Disney store we have here (would it save money)?
They are going to get birthday pins, since it's their birthday.



Answer
I have my 12 year old daughter here with me to answer the question. Our advice:

--Go into Disney knowing it is NOT a thrill ride park. Most of the fun is in the experience. Make sure to take in the shows, not just get on rides.

--Buy the souvenirs at the park, it isn't really a souvenir if you get it from a home outlet store. Oh when you buy them at the park, if you are staying at a Disney property hotel, they will deliver them to your hotel.If you are off property they will send them to the front gate so you can pick them up on your way out. So no worries about having to carry the stuff :-)

--As far as outfits if you all do the same color it is easier to keep track of each other in the crowd.

--When checking into your on property hotel (or when arriving at park from your off property hotel) make sure you get your "first time visit" pins. When the cast members (what Disney calls all their employees) see that you are first time guests they try to make the visit a little more special for you. In an event in the USA part of the world park, we got to play the president and his family and got balcony seats for the show. Also they might bump you to the front of ride lines, or give you discounts on food etc. You never know what they may do for you with the pins :-)

--If you are staying on property you get special early/late hours. Make sure you take advantage of this time and ride the rides. There is little to no wait time in the lines during these special hours.

--Have the kids save up any and all money (maybe even have them politely write a letter to family requesting spending money for the trip for the holidays--this will be easier for the gift givers, no wrapping and no shipping costs) Then let them have free reign on what they spend with their own money. There are so many awesome things to buy, yummy treats that it gets tiring saying "no" to everything. Our kids saved for two years (writing to family as I suggested) and got enough for $50 a day per kid for every day of our trip (they also pooled their money cause they are awesome kids :-) I would buy them one ice cream/treat a day, beyond that they would buy their own soda, treats and gifts. If I saw a toy/item that I wanted them to have, I still bought it. But I hate to say "no" on vacation, so this made it more fun for everyone.

--The lines are the worst from about lunch to dinner time, so plan to do the rides first thing in the morning or late in the evening and during the day, do the shows or walk around and enjoy the lovely environment.

--My daughter suggests the Tower of Terror and The Yeti ride as the best rides to make sure you enjoy. If you go to the Tower of Terror, look for Danny the cast member. He makes the ride much more enjoyable, he is a great actor.

--If we had more time we'd think of more things...

--If you happen to be a military family, ask this question again, I have more tips that are specific to military families.

EDIT: Nice happy birthday to them! Then the grown ups should wear the first time pins :-)

What should I gift to my grandmother on her birthday?

Answer
I think a personalized design portrait is the best gift in this moment. Last month is our 4th wedding anniversary; my husband brought me a portrait with a sentence " Stand by you in the life". It is very touching and memorable to me since it recalled me so much our bittersweet moment in our life. You just simply select the best picture; the words you want to say and the artist will design everything to you. It is very special and unique because they combine graphic design in your portrait, so it completely different from other service just prints your photo on canvas or puzzle. Also, you can choose to print on a card, canvas or wood puzzle. I think it is pretty Cool thing. And all of process is hand-made. I Believe it will be the best precious possession if she receives it.
