Is it possible to eat at a Disney resort restaurant without staying at one of the resorts?

Q. For instance, would it be possible to eat at 'Ohana if you were staying at a hotel out of Disney World, even if you made reservations? A. Yes! You can visit any of the several Disney resorts, even if you're not staying there. You can take advantage of their shops and restaurants, but not their pool. I love walking around different resorts. There are several table service meals at the hotels, and for these I highly recommend making reservations by calling 407-WDW-DINE or visiting disneyworld.com. But there are counter service restaurants at many (but not all) of the resorts too, which are nice, because they offer cheap meals (no reservations necessary) with a change of scenery. Some of my favorite counter service restaurants are Gasparilla Grill at the Grand Floridian, Captain Cook's at the Polynesian, Contempo Cafe at the Contemporary, and the Roaring Fork at Wilderness Lodge. All of these resorts can be reached by boat from the Magic Kingdom, or you can take a monorai...

Is there going to be a Hilton Lunar Hotel?

Q. Is the Hilton hotel chain considering to build a hotel on the moon when tourism there is developed-maybe by the year 2025? A. Not a chance. Certainly not by 2025. The cost to construct a hotel on the moon would be seriously prohibitive. A hotel requires a way for paying customers to arrive. All currently planned Private spaceplanes are designed to be SUBORBITAL. No one has realistic plans for private orbital craft, much less lunar capable ships. Only a few governments can afford that sort of technology. NASA used to have that technology, but has largely lost it. NASA would not be carrying tourists anyway. It kills enough of its highly trained astronauts without killing civilians too. Every year or so some billionaire pays the russians enough cash to take a trip into space. A hotel would require large numbers of billionaires with deathwishes. Considering transportation costs, the billionaire would probably have to fork over a couple of grand for a bottle of water. And g...

What is something fun to do in Las Vegas if you are under 21?

Q. I am 20 and i am going with my girlfriend this weekend, besides swimming in the hotel pool and shopping what else is there to do? Please don't answer like, Don't go or It is not a place for people under 21...please no dumb answers. Thank you. A. The usual things you will want to see for FREE in Vegas are: 1. Number one on my list is to watch the fountains displays in from of the Bellagio hotel. It usually runs every 15 minutes in summers starting at 3:00 PM; runs continuously until about midnight. Each show is different (there are more than 20 different tunes choreographed) so stay and watch at least 2 or 3. ALSO, go inside the Bellagio hotel to its lobby and view the beautiful glass sculptured ceiling AND the seasonal floral arrangements in the Atrium. 2. The âSirens of TIâ show (spectacular) in from of the Treasure Island Hotel; it runs every 90 minutes starting at about 4:30 PM. 3. The volcano erupt in from of the Mirage Hotel; starting at dark until midnigh...

What are good hotels to stay around Grand Canyon?

Q. I am planning a road trip from Moab, Utah, to Canyonlands, Glen Canyon, Grand Canyon, then Lake Mead, AZ. I'm looking for good hotels (and your experience) for: - between GlenC and GrandC (maybe in Tuba City, Cameron, or elsewhere) - between GrandC and Lake Mead (maybe in Tusayan, Flagstaff, or elsewhere) Thank you! A. Between Glen Canyon Dam (Page, AZ) and Grand Canyon, probably the best place to stay is the hotel at the Cameron Trading Post. This is located beside the Little Colorado River gorge where highway 64 to Grand Canyon Village branches off of 89A between Page and Flagstaff. Cameron is a real authentic trading post with an interesting selection of Native American blankets and jewelry (plus the usual touristy stuff). The rooms in the lodge section are modern, clean and reasonably priced and the cafe has good food (they are famous for their huge Navajo Tacos). Tusayan is the little tourist settlement just outside of the park gate for the Grand Canyon that has a numb...
