fasttrack tickets are great if you dislike queuing up for rides.

We went last year. If you stay in a Disney hotel you can go into the park 2 hours before everybody else - do it, because once 10am comes & everybody gets in, you spend the day queuing. We managed to do more in the 2 early hours than we did in a whole day starting at 10.
Also, get travel insurance - we had £300 stolen out of our hut at the Davy Crockett Ranch while we were out. Don't panic about languages - all of the staff are multi-lingual & don't get caught by anybody taking photos before you get into the park itself as they charge an absolute fortune for the shots & won't leave you alone until you buy them (but they don't mention this when they take the photo, they lead you to believe it's a freebie).

guess where we are staying> yep the davy crockett ranch
sorry to hear about your loss,did you take pounds or euros?
do you think it was the staff? did they break in? dont these places have wall safes like hotels?
the tip about the eary start sounds good thanks and will watch out for the photo scam,iam surprised that disney lets that sort of thing go on with it being a family place.

The money that was stolen was £s - that's why the Mrs left it there, as we wouldn't be needing it in the park. They do have safes, but there are ways to get into them as they have to be able to reset them if the previous guest doesn't reset the code before leaving.

We thought we'd be safe as we hadn't asked for the cleaning service (it doesn't come automatically), but we came back one day to find the money gone. After that we started closing the curtain in the door so that we could see if anybody had been in & surprise, surprise, 2 days later we came back to find the curtain wasn't shut in the door. Take a DVD player with you as the only English channels on the TVs are Disney Channel, BBC News & the park guide.
