Your cancellation must be received in writing at least ONE WEEK prior to your scheduled arrival date.

I think it is something you have to call them about. I have heard of people changing their tickets when it was completely run by Disney. But now that a third party handles the tickets, I am not sure.

So funny and adorable. Thank you.

As soon my Eldest kid sees that the pizzas are throw up from those stone mouths, he is not going to touch anything. LOL

Thanks for the suggestions so far. We have not yet camped, anywhere. So I am soaking up everything I can from you all.

0:33 seconds in - I see it!!

Thanks a lot Annie.

You are welcome!

What else are fiends for?

But couldn't you figure out either dimension once you have one?

If he makes bad sounds or ugly faces, does he have to ride it again?

They are open right now for the last week of October.

Reservations are open!

I just printed out my confirmation for 4-8 day YES premium package tickets with the class reservations for Synergy in Science for my 10yr old and Captivating Moments for my 13yr old for June 13.

LOL. My sister camped with a two room tent for over 10 years before she got the Jayco X19H last year. They made sure it was something she could tow with the 3 girls if her husband couldn't get time away from work.

They funny thing is, she only uses it for sleeping. She uses the full kitchen set up from camping days to cook. She uses the comfort stations for showering. And she would rather wash dishes outside. LOL

Isn't that where you can you pick the times for your fastpasses for certain rides on the days of your vacation before you even get there? Or is it done from the onsite lodgings? Something like that.

:rofl2: I don't even know who cupcake is, but that above post was hilarious!

Hmm, I've always heard that if Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy.

[not that the rule works when you have a house full of boys who don't care, LOL]

With a golf cart, getting to the pool won't be an issue. So I would go for the preferred [since you aren't doing the backing in] and enjoy the closeness of the Marina and beach.

No beer here because I didn't give you a specific site number. I will let the experts handle that.

I didn't think it could either. I am so glad this place was shown to me.

Since you are bringing a mini van, I think you could put sodas, water and ice in a decent sized cooler for the trip down.

I've seen it somewhere, someone brings a gallon jug of home tap water to use to flush while traveling to save on weight from water in the tanks. But I guess if you are going on longer trips where you are stopping overnight, you need to decide if you want to ride with water in the tanks or take the time to hook up to the facilities.

I think I will be buying our bottled water and cans of soda after we arrive at the Fort so I don't have to add those to my weight limit. LOL

What would the Outback be classified as, since it has the push out back end for a bed?

See, I'm right there with you. I wanted a smaller trailer. Something I could possibly tow with the Durango. Little hybrid trailer or pop-up. But something like that would look pretty silly being towed behind the 2500 Dodge. :hah:

I vote you are fine with your current truck. :thumbsup2:

Let's look at two of those numbers first. The GVWR is 8800. This what your truck can weight total with tongue weight, vehicle weight, gas, passengers and cargo. Your trucks dry weight is listed as 6174. This means you have 2626 to work with for gas, passengers, cargo and tongue weight and any modifications you made to the truck that might have added weight [we've added a bed liner, bigger wheels that add to our listed weight]. [which is very close to the cargo listing] The tongue weight is 833, but I don't know if this includes water or cargo inside. 1793 is what we have left for the stuff inside your truck - people, gas, cargo.

DH is asleep right now, fighting off a cold that the boys brought home, so I can't confirm my calculations.

I think we need our resident Larry to come back before I confuse us even more.

No. You still have to include the weight of your Dodge in that equations, not just what the trailer weight, people weight, gas weight, stuff weight. It is dang confusing, let me tell you. DH spent 30 minutes trying to get me to understand it. I do, but not enough to explain in words. LOL

Here are some links that explain the terms and how to figure out things.

And here is the link to the what those terms relate to in numbers for your Dodge for the right year.

It is not a simple trailer is X, vehicle can tow Y so we can add Z. You have take % of trailer weight [with stuff inside, water in tanks, propane in tanks] to get the actual tongue weight. And then that tongue weight is added to the vehicles curb weight, gas weight, people weight and any stuff you added inside and that cannot exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.

Like I said, it can be confusing. So make sure you have the right numbers to work with to figure out what you should be towing -combined. DH also said that just because you can tow all up to X amount, you don't want to actually get to that amount. Towing flat roads will be hard enough, but hills would be a nightmare. And it would be easy to go over it quickly if are too close to begin with.

Make sure you see the actual weight of the trailer. It will be listed on a label somewhere on it. The dealer listed our as 7000, but the options it came with the delivery label said it weighed 7600 with full propane but no water. So that is 600 pounds I no longer have to use to load up the trailer or truck with stuff.

We have a Dodge 2500 Cummins. DH says the GVWR for ours is 9000lbs with only about 2000lbs for tongue weight, people and stuff. Going over that risks having your insurance not pick up the tab if anything bad happens. What year is yours and what is it's specs? We don't know what the gas Dodge is capable of towing.

Ours is a little shorter than yours and has about the same weights. I think as long as you remember to count all the people and dogs and stuff [whether they are in the truck or in the trailer, it all counts], this should be doable for you towing wise. Price wise is all on you. =)

DH is lucky that this wasn't around for me to look at in the places we went.

Wow, it has features that you normally see in a 5er. I don't know anything about the quality, fit and construction though.

Out of all the possible memories we could have from our one trip to Disney World back in the mid 80's, the one that sticks the most in all our minds is playing with those jumping water fountains.
