Nope, no private watercraft on any Disney waterways.  While they say it is for liability reasons I'm sure part of it is to be able to rent things.....

Well, when we lived in Atlanta we found the mountains of western North Carolina and decided that would be our retirement home.  So, we found 3 acres with 450' on a native trout stream and built a home for our trailer.  This photo was taken during construction.  Now, 8 years later the grass is nice and green and I have added concrete walkways around the building and driveway in front.
 

 
 
The door is 15 feet wide and 14 feet tall with full clearance for the trailer the entire length of the barn.  I went ahead and built it 50 feed deep in case we decided to move up to a coach.  The road out front is two lane paved, but there is a ditch across the street - so it took a little practice backing the big trailer in.  Now, after a few times doing it it's easy peazy.  Last time I did it at 1AM with no spotter.  i just had to get out a couple of times to convince myself it was going in OK.
 
To the left of the door is an efficiency apartment with kitchen, shower and laundry facilities.
 
I have even added two campsites down by the creek with water and electric (20/30/50 amp).  My own little campground

Oh, and which airline allows you to use miles to purchase Disney tickets???

Nothing is Florida is fast it seems.  They are beginning a six year construction project on I-4 in Orange and Seminole counties.

yea, but this will cover us for several years. By that time we will have hit the lottery and will be staying at the Grand Floridian with length of stay passes and a free meal plan!

Agree with other, time your trip through Atlanta. We lived there for five years and the only traffic worse is the DC area and Manhattan. OK, maybe throw in LA but that is a long way away. ATL Rush "hour" starts early, it's busy by 7AM and goes later than most places. I would say come down 75 between 11 and 2, much later you will hit going home traffic heading out of the city.
Personally, I would also get as far south of Atlanta as you can so the next day travel is short. I like to get to Disney early. Not so early that you can't get into a site, but early enough that it is not a wasted day. I never figure on a park day one (we use tickets, not length of stay passes) we relax at the camper or hit someplace like downtown Disney.

double check the prices and compare to Undercover Tourist. UT has the best prices I have seen other than military and other "special" discounts. Speaking of military, if any one in your group is active or retired you can get tickets through the welfare & morale office at a local base or at Shades of Green when you get to Disney.

I actually live about 30 minutes south of where the ProPride hitch warehouse is located.  When we purchased ours, I just called up Sean (the owner, formerly with Hensley) and drove up there and picked up my hitch.  We have since sold the hitch since we now have a motorhome, but it was a pretty nice hitch.  We had a 35 foot trailer with a lot of sway and this hitch helped tame the beast.  If there's any questions about the hitch you may have, I would be glad to answer them for you.

I think I would prefer to just open my own bank account to save in. Seems like Disney will make money on the "float" in these accounts......

Well, looking through their web site there are a lot of "similar" attractions. The best seems to be their own Fort Wilderness.

contingency plans = more busses

Great, as much as folks think their "little bit of water" dumped on the ground doesn't amount to much, consider the cumulative effects of multiple campers doing the same thing year round. Back in 2001 The state of Florida in their infinite wisdom prohibited the use of portable transport systems (think blue tanks and cassette toilets).  I was writing articles for Pop Up Times back then and dealt with the Florida Department of Health on Pop Up Campers unique needs in this area.  To be honest, they were wonderful to deal with and had no idea that there was a class of RVs that did not always have on board storage tanks.  Within about six weeks they were able to amend the rules to allow the use of "transportable wastewater containers and cassette type toilets".
 
You can read their memo here:  http://www.popupcamping.info/TWCs.pdf
 
As to who enforces the rules, it was explained to me at the time that as part of the licensing of an RV park with a sewage system, they (Disney) must agree to unannounced visits by inspectors of either the County Health Department and/or the the Florida Department of Health.  Do they actually inspect, who knows???
 
My Gray water Web Page has more information: http://www.popupcamping.info/GrayWater.htm

Yes, but it must sport the proper Fiend items to be considered appropriate! I hope DaveinTn agrees that it was alright to kind of hijack, while still on topic! :)
 

I kind of liked the 91... Figure in a few years you could have a tow vehicle with antique tags!

Now you are just playing to his ego!

Well, I found my TR (below) for the land portion, but for the life of me I can't find the cruise portion - but some thoughts first:
RCCL does offer the reverse of what we did, starting in Anchorage and ending in Vancouver.
As you want to end in Vancouver, check out the train trip from there to Seattle. It sounded fun and may save you in airfare.
As I pointed out in my TR, Verizon does not have data in Alaska (or they didn't when we were there). Data is expensive on the ship, but most ports have places close to the ship where you can get it.
Here goes for the TR
We had a great time, but I'm still not sure the value to fun ratio works out. Alaska cruises are expensive and the airfare is high also.
Some thoughts -
Most cruise lines have similar Alaska itineraries.
Check the weather before you go. We took clothing to layer and ended up hot all the time. All we really needed other than dinner time was shorts & tee shirts. The only cool day was cruising in glacier bay.
The glacier was spectacular!! According to the crew of Radiance, we got the closest and had the best viewing of the season so far. Most days have been fogged out. We got within a mile of the glacier and the fog lifted for about an hour while we were there. As we left the fog dropped again and the glacier disappeared.
All of the ports are a lot alike. If you just walk off the ship without plans they are all great big tee shirt shops and jewelry stores.
I highly recommend Island Wings in Ketchikan if you go there. http://www.islandwings.com
Internet on the ship is expensive, so i stuck to hotspots on land. In Ketchikan there is a a neat saloon across from the port (1st City Saloon I think). Cheep drinks and free Internet with a purchase. In Juneau there is a nice coffee shop a few blocks from the ship, again, free with purchase.
I've been surprised I've had 3G cell service almost everywhere but my Verizon hot spot did not work in Alaska.
I thought the land portion would be lame, but boy was I wrong. The land portion is far better than the cruise. Royal Caribbean (RCCL) uses Premier Alaska Tours, Inc. as the provider of the land portion. They are a great company and the employees we dealt with knew their stuff!! We had the same bus, driver and tour guide for the whole trip. They handled all baggage moving. We put them in the hall the last night of the cruise and the next time we saw the bags was when we arrived in our hotel room in Anchorage. This worked the same each day, put the bags out in the hall in the morning and they will be in your room in the evening. Many folks took advantage of the tour operators offer to just keep some bags on the coach, and only bring one or two bags to the room each day. The down side to the land portion is that meals are not included, but that did not seem to be a problem.
We landed in Seward and took a bus up to Anchorage, spending the nite at the Marriott there. After lunch a visit to the Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center provided a history of Alaska. the room for the night was standard Marriott, but we found that they have a music on the green concert series Friday nights. Food trucks, a small beer garden and live music. It was local music (no named acts) but made for a nice evening.
Day 2 we took the Wilderness Express Deluxe Domed Railcars from Anchorage to Talkeetna, AK. These rail cars are wonderful, and appear to be used only by RCCL passengers (but I'm not sure about that). They have 80 first class style seats up top and you get a great view of the land as it goes by. Downstairs is dining area and the food is delicious, and not really overpriced by Alaska standards. As this was a morning trip, breakfast was on the menu. After breakfast it was back upstairs to watch the beautiful Alaskan wilderness roll by. I took advantage of the bar and had a specialty coffee as I road along. Talkeetna is a quirky little place that folks say the TV show Northern Exposure was patterned after. Lodging this night was at the Talkeetna Alaskan Lodge, which is spectacular. The only down side is that rooms do not have A/C, but the view is to die for. There was time in the afternoon for additional activities, but we did a little hike and relaxed with a bottle of wine left over from the cruise.
Day 3 allowed us to sleep in and than we were back on the Wilderness Express for our trip up to Denali National Park. The late start had us on the train for lunch and into the Denali area in the afternoon. Our hotel for the next two nights was the McKinley Village Lodge. Again, basic rooms with no A/C but a beautiful location. We got in early enough for another hike, this one a little longer (a little over 2 mile out/back), but it took us out into a beautiful forest where we found fields of wild blueberry bushes and a beaver lake. We were able to just sit by the lake and watch the little guys working on their home before winter. Peope on TA complain that you are locked in to the restaurant at the hotel because "town" is about 8 miles away. The hotel shuttle stops running around 6:30, but most to the restaurants in town will take you back to the lodge after dinner.
Day 4 started early for the tour of Denali National Park. The tours are run by the park service vendor and puts you in a school bus (OK, the one we were in had upgraded seats, not the bench seats of my youth) and supplies a box lunch (very spartan). This was fun, as we got to see grizzly bear and carabo in the wild, but it was also long and hot. RCCL pays for you to get the "Wildlife Tour" which is the longest offered by the park and takes around 8 hours... We stopped often for necessities (there are park service bathrooms out on the trail) and our guide was knowledgeable, but after about hour 5 most were looking for the wine and hot tub. After the tour it was back to McKinley Village Lodge for the evening. We stayed on the back deck of the lodge playing Cornhole and having a few glasses of wine. it was here that I really discovered that due to the longer day (it was still light at 11PM) I was loosing more and more sleep each day.
Day 5 was on the bus for a ride up to Fairbanks, the end of the trip. You get in to Fairbanks early enough to play tourist for the day. Activities are included, and there are additional tours you can sign up for. The hotel for the night was the Wedgewood Resort. This property is unique in my travels. The room we had was an actual one bedroom apartment, and they had several building just like ours. I found out that it had been built as long term housing for workers on the Trans-Alaska pipeline. Older and a little dated, but clean with lots of room to spread out in.
Day 6 was our travel home day, but our flight was not until 9:30PM so we did a little more touring while the hotel held out bags. Even though the tour was over, Premier Alaska Tours stayed on top of things and mad sure we were picked up at the hotel and take to the airport for our flight.
Looking back, we decided that Sandals blows away a cruise vacation. For what we spent on the cruise we could have taken two (maybe 3) trips to Sandals. Granted this was a unique situation as the DWs father wanted to go to Alaska - but I want to go sit on the beach!! This year it will be Fort Wilderness in December and Sandals in Jamaica in February. Oh, I retire in November so hopefully the trips will happen more often.

Well, we made it home.  I wasn't sure I would get the new camper in the driveway of the new house in SC, but with a little luck and the DW talking to me on the radio it went in first time. 
 
It was a wonderful FW trip, but as with all of them too short!!  I think we are "within range" for the DW (8 hour drive, we leave after work - stop at the FLA line & sleep for a few hours then on to FW in the AM) .  She has never been the fan that I am, but during this trip she said lets come back in May for teh EPCOT Flower Festival.  Well, the reservations have already been made!
It seems that as the wweek went on I had less time to post with everything we were doing.....
 
 
Nice to chat with you also and I'm glad your hubby made it!!  Have a great time.

Well, this is an old thread, but it seemed like a good place to post my results of MBs & FP+
 
We had 6 days reserved in mid December at a full hook up site, room only reservation.  We still had 3 days left on some old tickets so no need for tickets this time.
 
About six weeks out we got the "you have been chosen" e-mail which allowed us to order/customize Magic bands.  I ordered them and downloaded the MDE app for my iPhone & iPad.
 
The MBs arrived about a month before arrival.  Funny, but a week or so later I go the "you have been chosen" e-mail again.  I just ignored this one.
 
Two days out I checked in on line.  As we planned on arriving early I just checked the box I want early arrival over any other requests.
 
Day 1  We pulled up about 8:45.  Security had us on the list and waved us in.  The CM working the gate was as nice as could be, had our KTTW package waiting for us.  After the normal speech she asked for a 4 digit PIN to use with the MBs and handed us the packet and we were off to our site in 1900 - our favorite!
 
While we set up we gave Kenny a call and worked out the delivery of a cart (different post later).  Once set up and in our cart we began to wander FW and DTD.  No need for the MBs today.  Can't set up FP+ because our tickets are too old to "attach" to the MDE account.  This required a visit to the guest services desk at DTD.  Amazing that on tickets that were at least 9 years old their records matched what i knoew was on each ticket (3 park days and 4 extras).
 
Day 2 Another "down day"  Wandered FW, wen to the outlet mall and hung out.  The MBs will not work for the returning guest re-entry gate.  Set up FP+ for day 3.  Once you select your 3 it gives you four options on times and order in which you want to use them.  Easy to use and works for our style of vacation.  We usually know two or three attractions we want to visit, the rest we play by ear.
 
Day 3 EPCOT  the MBs worked flawlessly for entry to EPCOT.  All our FP+ worked perfectly and all purchases in the park used the MBs also.  Visited HS in the evening and again the MBs worked for entry and purchases.  Once back at the campsite we set up FP+ for day 4
 
Day 4 MK  Same as the day before, the MBs worked for entry and all FP+.  During the day I wanted to change on of our FP selections and was able to do it on my iPhone using Disney guest WiFi.  WiFi signal seems strong in most parks.
 
Day 5  Another down day  Discovered that the MBs will not open the comfort station doors or the laundry room.  Still need that KTTW card.
 
Day 6 Started at AK, went on to EPCOT and then the MK.  Went on the wagon ride at FW in the evening.  The MBs worked well again up to the wagon ride.  The CM could not get his wireless system to work.  He resorted to the old multi part paper form....
 
So, my thoughts. 
 
The MBs work well for our style of visiting, but I'm sure it's not for everyone.  As TCD points out, as more people use them the number of FP will quickly go away.  I did note that on multiple rides there were CMs with iPads keeping track of FP and standby wait times.  If I were going to guess I'd say they were trying to figure out how many FP can be issued in a certain time frame without degrading the FP feeling. 
 
Bugs still need to be worked out.  If the FP can let me in the park, it should be able to let me back in to FW at the end of the day!
 
With park hopping, the ability to schedule FP in multiple parks needs to be added  A couple of days I would have liked this option, but it is not currently available.
 
MB/FP+ CMs seemed to be available at almost every attraction to handle issues as they arose.  Listening to them talk, it appeared that the posibilty of increasing the number of FP+ to 4 is bing looked at as well as the multi park option.
 
My opinion, I liked it - but that is just me.
 
 

Wow Lou, with fancy words like that on your resume you could apply for the FW/WL GM position.

If you leave the trailer without it being locked to the TV, buy a wheel lock for the trailer:

This is just an example, there are several out there.

Checking ID's seemed to go away when resort transportation went from a separate charge to something that was rolled into one fee.
 
Here is a "Transportation Ticket" that you had to buy if you didn't have an A-B-C-D-E Ticket book with a Transportation Ticket in it

 
And speaking of old pricing, can anyone else remember parking at this price?
 

Well, if thinking used:
 
Purchasing a Used Pop-Up-Camper
 
Pricing for specific makes and models are different for different areas of the country One good source for pricing information is the NADA Guides.
As to the rest, just make sure that you go through the camper, part by part.  You should set it up and take it down whole drill - from start to finish with the owner BUT make sure that you do it with them.
Inspect roof for any damage or abrasions Check latches and seal for proper seating (recheck this when you close it back) Make sure the lift system is in order and works correctly - let them show you how it cranks and you do it to see how it feels and works. That the door works and sets correctly The bunks and slide out pull out smoothly and watch how it sets up and poles to bunks set-up and attach. Have them show you how to set-up the awning as well Let them show you how to turn on and off the propane and look at the hoses making sure that they look in good shape. (You may find this easier to do before pulling out the bunks) Once the stabilizers are down, go inside, have them set-up the galley and have them hook-up to water (if possible) and check the sink, look under sink for visible leaks and inspect the hoses - bring a flashlight for this. Have him run the stove and refrigerator (on gas you should be able to feel that the inside of fridge is cooling off) Look inside for any visible signs of patching on canvas material, test all zippers, flip cushions to look for tears, rips or faulty zippers. Check curtains for water spots and rips. Look up at roof interior for any signs of water marks or damage. Open drawers and cabinets for any sign of runner/latch problems and observe storage space needs for your family Run all interior lights and A/C and ceiling vents Have them light the furnace and show you how it works as well as the hot water heater. Check around the shower floor for leaks and have them show you how the cassette toilet works as well as the shower and its set-up Walk the whole floor checking for soft spots (wood rot). Have them show you how to hook-up and run the outside stove (if applicable) Have them show you where the fresh water holding tank is and the water pump. Have them show you where the fuses are located. If all is in order, go back outside and have them show you all the outside utility hook-ups and electric cord and the battery set-up.
Walk out the whole exterior for signs of side wall damage or any visible damage to the canvas/vinyl or how it attaches to camper. 
Then slowly start the process for closing the camper and watch them as you help them close the camper. Make sure that it closes smoothly, and that the top is tight to the body and latches without too much effort.
Assuming that you have a hitch for your tow vehicle - attach it to your camper and test the lights and turn signals. 
If you have grease pencil, mark where the bottom of the tire is (on the sidewall)  Pull forward and look at the tires all the way around for any signs of irregular wear or problems.  Ask them how long the camper has been sitting.  Tires that are exposed to the sun (UV rays) begin to break down quickly and become dangerous.  Be wary of the spot you marked where the tire contacted the ground and look for any signs of a "flat spot".  If in doubt about the tires, assume you will need to replace them and adjust your price accordingly.
Have them show you the manual and all paperwork for the appliances so if you do decide to purchase you will know up front if they have the information on the camper.
Inquire if they have made any warranty repairs or if they have ever had the wheel bearings repacked.  The bearings should be repacked once a year and you may need to have it done immediately upon purchase based on the age of the camper.

One of the most confusing areas for anyone considering a new pop-up is the aspect of "what can I tow, and which hitch should I purchase?".  Before you go any further, get your vehicle owners manual, and determine what your limits are.  Easier said than done!  As towing capacities of vehicles are based on several factors including the vehicle frame type (unibody or frame), engine, transmission, rear end gear ratio, tires/load range, engine cooling capacity, transmission cooling capacity, alternator capacity as well as several other things.  Woe is the camper who went out and purchased a pop-up without reviewing what their tow vehicle weight ratings were.  The deal you find on a pop-up can quickly fade when you find out you need a new tow vehicle to move it!
 
Check with your manufacturer to see if they have a separate towing manual.  Many do not include all towing information in the standard manual.  It will probably take less than an hour, but with the manual and probably a few trips to the car/truck to read equipment stickers you will be able to determine the ratings for your vehicle.
 
Next, was your vehicle equipped with a factory tow package?  What is included in a tow package differs between manufacturers, but many include: heavy-duty brakes, heavy duty suspension, higher capacity engine cooling, an auxiliary transmission fluid cooler, a larger battery, a higher output alternator and a full-size spare tire.
Trailer hitches utilized for pop-up campers generally come in two different styles, Weight Carrying (WC) and Weight Distribution (WD).  The type of hitch purchased for you particular situation will depend on several factors including
 
1. The tow vehicle and its towing capacities
2. The trailer being towed
3. Vehicle manufacturer specifications.  On certain vehicles, they will provide 2 sets of specifications, 1 for a WC hitch, and 1 for a WD.  Read your owners manual carefully The "fine print" note(s) about trailering may indicate using a weight distributing (WD) hitch for trailers weights above a certain weight (like1,000 lbs.), and it may  require WD for trailer weights above a second threshold (like 2,000 lbs).
 
Do NOT assume the person trying to sell you a pop-up will know the limitations of your vehicle.  Remember what their job is in this situation! It's to separate you from your money.
 
Remember, your vehicle braking system is designed to stop the vehicle itself!  When towing you are adding a substantial weight (mass) to the rear of your vehicle which also must be stopped.  If your manufacturer has an option for brakes (electric or surge) if  at all possible they should be included in your camper purchase.
 
All of the ratings and specifications are important in their own way.  You do not want to exceed any of them!
 
If you change any vehicle equipment (like new tires) your ratings can change. Always review equipment/tire purchases with an eye toward how it will affect you tow ratings.
