Well I was not screaming at my computer and Matt I think they took down the tongulahona (where ever you said in that great Polynesian dialect) but Tahiti is a good choice since it is nice and quiet over on that side of the resort. Tokelau would be the best default choice for someone with a garden view room since you are still in the quiet area of the resort but you have possible views of the castle and fireworks from some rooms at a garden view price. Samoa and Fiji also have some nice partial lagoon views at a garden view price.

Is this episode not working for anyone else? It starts but only plays until right after "This is WDW Today..." and then it goes off.

Humf! My question got answered too! Thank you!

I just wanted to say that I am in shock that Scopa Towers was never mentioned, yet Pop Century was. Is it because Len was absent?

Also, maybe there could be a current WDW Guest Relations person on the listener question shows. Just a thought (although they probably don't like the idea of all these Disney podcasts...although it is free advertisement for them...). Again, just a thought.

I loved the narcoossee's remark. Valentine's Day at WDW 2006 http://allearsnet.com/menu/men_valent.htm (source=All Ears Net)

The fact that you can find anything you want on the internet never ceases to amaze me. Talking about bugs at WDW and poof... YouTube makes it real. It's a little scary...
