  1. Another thing comes to mind. How does I-295 compare to the turnpike through New Jersey? On the map they look like they parallel each other for their full lengths so I was thinking it might be a no toll alternative.
  2. According to this since we are entering New Jersey going South there should be no toll for the bridge. I'll say with those rates I'll stop complaining about the cost of the toll bridge over the Ohio River in Louisville.
  3. We won't be anywhere near there. We are staying at Cherry Hill Park campground in the Maryland DC suburbs and the trip home will be on I-95 or some loop thereof for the trip home.
  4. Thanks for posting. While it isn't a 4-axle rate it does fit with what I'm seeing. If I stay on toll roads the full length of NJ to avoid Philadelphia the number I was coming up with was around $40. That doesn't include Delaware or the bridges. We don't use the only toll road near us as it only shortens the drive by 10 - 15 minutes and saves about a 1/4 gallon of gas while costing half again as much as a gallon of gas. Due to this I don't want to put too much in the account just to have it sit there and rack up non-use fees.
  5. Just like during the winter between classes at my old high school.
  6. Well we leave this Friday. After reading Dave's exciting post about hitting Washington DC on their way back we decided to stop there on the way back as well. I'm not sure that will be good thing as Dave can make just about anything,like falling into a farm implement, sound exciting. I went ahead and picked up an EZ Pass so my is what can I expect for toll costs for 4 axles on the trip back down I-95? I want to make sure I have enough loaded on my account before leaving and some of the numbers I have guesstimated seem exorbitant.
  7. Looks like a nice floor plan for your needs. Hope things go well.
  8. I agree something is better than nothing. However with all of the up charging going on for things guests use to get on a complimentary basis you have to wonder if staying on property is getting to the point to be worth it.
  9. I hope it isn't a mistake that November shows EMH. I wonder if their plan is to run EMH in the slower periods and make guests pay for the privilege during busier times.
  10. The price doesn't seem that out of line of what you would pay if you bought 3 cocktails and a memento at any of the Disney Resorts.
  11. What would have been cool is if they could have built in some interactive effects similar to Universal and their Harry Potter wands.
  12. That's what I was thinking as well. Rene and I planned our park visits around the nighttime extra hours. With the way resort guest perks keep disappearing it is getting harder to justify trips to the Fort.
  13. We've never bought one at a show but I have found the dealers around here will still honor RV show prices and negotiate from them for a period of time after the show has ended.
  14. When we went every year (about 4 years ago now) I recall F&W starting mid-September and ending mid-November. Over the past few year it appears Disney has been extending it in an attempt to draw people during the less full times.
  15. Now we know why your dogs appear to be happy all of the time. I would be too with my own personal bar.
  16. We've been happy with our Winnebago Micro Minnie. It is 7 ft wide and several models have slides. If you want a standard width trailer the Minnie line is the same build and finish quality. In particular their customer service has been very helpful sending me drawings without question of the sidewall and slide construction for adding a topper. The also rejected one warranty repair but when I called them to explain what was going on they approved it and expedited the parts to my dealer. Both the number of initial problems, how they were handled and materials used are leaps and bounds above what
  17. I go through sticker shock every time I get a quote from Jason. Just goes with the game. Your lucky with the alignment. We have our 40th in 2022 so while we might be going to WDW to celebrate it won't be for the Mouse's big event.
  18. We're spending Saturday through Wednesday the week of the Defeated Creek GG. Our plan is a couple of days at Dollywood and spending a day or two up in the national park.
  19. If it wasn't joke it would sure ruin our September plans.
  20. That would make sense therefore can't be allowed to come into being.
  21. We never had an issue with time in the parks. When the girls were little we would take them during the day then dump them with my aunt who we stayed with when in SoCal. Rene and I would then head back for an adult only night visit. As they got older we would go in the AM, leave and return after dinner. It also helped that we lived in the Bay Area and we could head down to SoCal to visit family about once a month. This allowed us to have plenty of Disneyland visits. At times remembering our easy access when we lived in CA makes me wish we were closer to WDW so we could visit more often. Howeve
  22. When our kids were little we never used a stroller in Disneyland. If they got tired Rene or I would carry them or we would stop and sit down for a bit. I don't remember the exact age but think our oldest would have been in her late threes maybe four for her first visit.
  23. 36" X 52" is still pretty darn big and I can see people pushing the limits. This is my line of thinking too. Disney should ban the two and three kid stroller models and require each one to be in a stroller their own. I know this could earn me a permanent ban from the Disney number crunchers but maybe they could just let people use a Disney supplied stroller for free.
  24. We would like this as well since we leave the parks around 1PM and don't go back until 7'ish. During that time we like to visit an adult beverage counter or two and plant ourselves.
