Hi,
{{user("firstname")}}!
09? Did you unwittingly
take a long snooze, like Rip Van Winkle? Don't worry! It's just that last
week's special deal on pre-orders of PassPorter's Walt Disney World 2009 (due
in October 2008) went over like gangbusters! So well, in fact, that we've decided
to extend the offer five days more and give more folks a crack at it!
Deal? What deal? We've
rolled back prices for pre-orders for a limited time -- until May 29. With the
rollback price, our spiral edition of PassPorter's Walt Disney World 2009 is a
mere $19.95 "list" price (the same as it was for our original, 1999
edition). What's more, you can apply any discounts or coupons you may have to
that reduced price. So a 2009 spiral edition is just $15.96 (with a 20%
newsletter subscriber coupon -- see bottom of this newsletter) or $13.96 (with
a 30% coupon for registered readers and message board members). Deluxes are an
even better deal. Pre-order at http://www.passporterstore.com/store/1587710609.aspx
As we explained last week,
sales of PassPorter's Walt Disney World 2008 have been so good that we
have none left in the warehouse (although there are plenty in stock - for now -
at book stores around the country). If you can't wait for October to get a
book, you may purchase a 2008 electronic edition (download only - http://www.passporterstore.com/store/1587710498ebook.aspx
) or get a 2007 edition at a
close-out price ( http://www.passporterstore.com/store/2007.aspx
).
Some of you may know we've
been temporarily out of stock on PassHolder Pouches, too. Fortunately, those
are much easier to get back in stock. In fact, we've got them right now! Not
only that, but we upgraded the printed PassPorter logo to a full-color version
that we think is much more attractive than the old, all-yellow version.
PassPorter's Disney Cruise
Line and its Ports of Call 2008 is in stock! All new orders of our cruise guide
ship the next business day. Order at http://www.passporterstore.com/store/dcl2008.aspx

TRAVEL FEATURE: Kapalua,
Maui
========================================================
by Roger Sauer, PassPorter
Guest Contributor
With airfares getting
higher and higher and the economy slowing down, a trip to Maui in the Hawaiian
Islands might seem a little unrealistic. But dreams are dreams and some dreams
are worth waiting for.
Long rated one of the
world's best islands by Conde Nast Traveler magazine, Maui remains one of the
best vacation spots in the United States. Due to its small size but unique
shape and geography, Maui has many different facets and some areas seem very
unlike others, from the more urban Kahului and Wailuku, to far remote Hana with
its rain forest in the east, to the barren moonscape of Haleakala, to Kapalua
with its quiet elegance and view of the neighboring island of Molokai in the
distance. Where is Kapalua? Imagine Maui as an hourglass tilted to the left about
45 degrees, with its top half slightly smaller than its bottom half. Kapalua is
toward the top of the upper half of the glass. The larger, lower section is
dominated by Haleakala volcano and its Upcountry region, with the town of Hana
on its bottom shore. Kahului and its airport are at the narrow space between
the two halves. (Maui was originally two islands until volcanic activity from
Haleakala joined the two.) Situated in an area that was once pineapple fields
and rocky coastline, Kapalua is a community and resort built around the three
world-class courses of the Kapalua Golf Club. Most of the development is on the
ocean side of the highway. Some expensive homes and the Plantation course (home
of the PGA season opener, the Mercedes Classic) are on the mountain side of the
highway on the outskirts of town.
A short distance past the
Plantation course we turn right onto Office Road. A small shopping area
featuring Guest Services for the Kapalua Resort and the Honeloa Store, which
has been in operation since the early 1900s when it served the pineapple crews
and few residents of the area. A bit farther down Office Road on the right is
the Ritz-Carlton Resort, and straight ahead are the Kapalua Resort's Bay
Villas, Ridge Villas, and Golf Villas. Most of the resort'srental units are in
these villas, though some homes are available as well.
One reason the tourist
crowd prefers Kaanapali Beach five miles to the south is that most of Kapalua
Resort's villas are not right on the beach. The trade-off is in Kapalua's
having about one-tenth the crowd of Kaanapali. However, there are several beach
access paths, including one to a public beach on Kapalua Bay, an easy stroll
from most units. Snorkeling in Kapalua Bay is exquisite, with schools of fish
including the striking Moorish Idols and occasional honu green sea turtles. An
activity station offering kayaks and other gear (a remnant of the former
Kapalua Bay Hotel) can service your equipment needs.
While the hotel pools at
the busier Kaanapali hotels are generally filled to the brim with tourists
during most of the year (high season lasts all year with Christmas being even
higher!), staying at Kapalua Resort's villas allows a guest to use one or more
of the many smaller pools around the resort. Many times my wife and I were the
only persons by a pool for most of the day. And each pool area has a covered
patio, some with barbecues and other kitchen amenities. Each guest's room key
allows entrance to each gated pool area. There are many units in each building
and all buildings have been situated on the slopes overlooking the bay to allow
ocean views. There are one, two, and three bedroom units, all with lanais
(patios). Only the Golf Villas are air conditioned, but the steady breeze
generally makes cooling unnecessary. All units have full kitchens and many have
sleeper sofas, so even a one bedroom unit can sleep four.
While these facilities
were built in the 1970s and 1980s, they are kept in great condition. Even the
smaller one bedroom villas are selling at about $1 million when they are put on
the market. (Keep that checkbook ready!)
There are a few
restaurants in Kapalua. The Plantation Restaurant in its namesake course
clubhouse features great Asian fusion cuisine with panoramic views of the golf
course, ocean, and Molokai. Sansei is one of a local chain of seafood
restaurants. Sansei is noted for its early hour (4 to 6 PM) dinner specials.
There are upscale restaurants in the Ritz Carlton Hotel, and the Honeloa Store
has a snack bar and a la carte items.
Because Kapalua is on the
far northwest coast of Maui's smaller half, day trips to places like Haleakala
National Park and Hana on the far eastern shore require the better part of a
day. Whale watching is a big attraction from November through March. On our
last trip we took a snorkeling cruise to Molokini and saw dozens of whales
jumping, slapping their fins, and cavorting on our way back to Maalea, our
port. Later in the evening from our lanai we could hear whales slapping their
fins and flukes in the dark waters between Maui and Molokai.
If you want the busy
crowds of Kaanapali and enjoy having access to a concierge and full hotel
amenities, the Villas are not for you. But if you want a little privacy, a
leisurely walks to the beach, or luxuriating in a near-private pool, Kapalua
may be your cup of tea. What's our choice? My wife and I own two timeshare
units in Kaanapali; we rent both out and prefer to stay in Kapalua.
Some money saving tips:
Kapalua has its own
airport but flights from the mainland are routed through Honolulu. Airfares are
generally $100 additional to fly to Kapalua rather than Kahului.
Car rental is a necessity,
though there are shuttles from Kahului Airport (OGG) to Kapalua. The trip from
Kahului takes about 45 minutes, although the traffic through Lahaina can cause
long waits.
Most of the rental units
in Kapalua are privately-owned condos, with the exception of the Ritz-Carlton
that has partially become a "fractional ownership" property. The
Kapalua Bay Hotel featured in some earlier tour books has been torn down and is
being replaced by high-end fractional ownership condos.
Condos can be rented
through Kapalua Resort, which manages the privately owned units, though there
are third party agencies such as Sullivan Properties (www.MauiResorts.com) and
Vacation Rentals By Owner (http://www.vrbo.com) where prices are generally
lower, with one-bedroom units as low as $150 per night and two bedroom units as
low as $225 per night. There is one season in Maui, with Christmas holidays
featuring higher rental rates.
Staying for a while? Just
outside the Kahului Airport is a Costco warehouse. Load up the groceries!

DISNEY FEATURE: Dining
Review: River Belle Terrace
========================================================
by Kath Davis, PassPorter
Guest Contributor
The River Belle Terrace in
Disneyland Park has recently reopened with an exciting new menu. We had seen
the menu posted a month or so earlier (although the restaurant was closed at
that time), and we had been waiting for an opportunity to sample it. We got our
chance one lovely April evening.
The River Belle Terrace is
a triangular restaurant at the intersection of Adventureland, Frontierland and
New Orleans Square. It is one of the "1955 Originals," in place when
the park opened, and is billed as casual dining. One entrance faces Tarzan's
Treehouse, and the other is along the Rivers of America. The apex of the
triangle points right at Pirates of the Caribbean. There is fairly limited
seating inside, but lots of outdoor seating on the Frontierland side. Some of
the outdoor tables have umbrellas.
We'd spent a wonderful day
at the Anaheim parks, and had just enjoyed the "Remember... Dreams Come
True" parade from a premium spot on Main Street. We'd planned to eat late
at the River Belle (it stays open until 10:30 pm on Friday nights in the
spring, but the hours do vary with the time of year). Our plan was to get an
outdoor table, and linger over dinner long enough to watch the 10:30 showing of
Fantasmic! from comfortable seats.
We did get one of the last
tables (about 40 minutes before Fantasmic! would start), and my husband Randy
went in to order. The new menu consists of Signature Sandwiches (prime rib,
turkey, barbecued pork, or vegetarian) and salads (also with prime rib or
turkey). A children's menu includes smaller versions of the prime rib or turkey
sandwiches, as well as peanut butter and jelly. We both ordered the prime rib
sandwich; it was a very hearty sandwich with plenty of meat, but could have
used more flavorful bread. (I find that the bread at the resort is rarely up to
the rest of the ingredients in a sandwich.) It was not clear from the menu
outside that a side dish is included with your sandwich. Randy chose a pasta
salad for me (since I was defending our table and two chairs from latecomers),
and he had coleslaw. Naturally we sampled from each other. Both were quite
tasty, and I thought the pasta salad with artichoke hearts was delicious. Other
side choices include a bean salad and a fruit salad. Portions were generous,
and I left some of my sandwich behind (but finished that great pasta salad!).
We shared dessert, a
strawberry shortcake concoction made with light custard. There are other
dessert choices, such as chocolate cake. The meal for the two of us was under
$30, and even at the late hour, the food was fresh and the service prompt.
There are two service lines (one starting at each entrance), but only one was
open at 10:00 pm.
The seating area became
quite crowded, as other people took advantage of unused chairs to view
Fantasmic!. It was an excellent viewing spot for the show, and I would advise
anyone who can wait that late for dinner to do the same. The umbrellas were
closed for better viewing. The River Belle Terrace is also open for breakfast,
offering "Mickey" pancakes, scrambled eggs, fruit, meats and
pastries.
One area where Disneyland
suffers a little in comparison to Walt Disney World (in our opinion) is dining.
With the new menu at the River Belle Terrace, Disneyland comes just a bit
closer to the dining opportunities in the Magic Kingdom. The food is tasty,
hearty and offers some fairly healthy choices.

DISNEY TIPS FROM FELLOW
READERS
==========================================
Our readers deliver a
wealth of information! Here are the winners in this month's tip contest:
SUPER SCALES
"Look into purchasing
a portable digital scale before you leave. They are relatively
inexpensive, but it will save you time, frustration and possibly money in
overweight baggage fees! My husband found a portable digital scale at Bed
Bath and Beyond last fall. It was about $20 and worth every penny. It is
very light, compact, sturdy, easy to use, and can display the weight in pounds
or kilos. Getting a digital one is important, the reading stays on the
screen so you can put your bag down and then read it. Also, you can weigh
your bags in advance to see how far over you are and decide if you want to ship
home your extra souvenirs instead of buying more luggage. Shipping your
extra stuff home might be cheaper than the expense of buying extra luggage and
having to pay the airline a fee for extra bags. Just don't forget to pack
it with you so you can weigh your bags for the trip home!"
-- contributed by Heather
S.
SUPER STRAPS
"I found
multiple uses for luggage straps! After you've packed, make sure you wrap
a luggage strap around your suitcase. These ensure that if your luggage
comes open (think hard side suitcase w/ latches) or unzipped that the strap
will keep most of your contents inside. And when we went on a Disney Cruise, we
used our luggage straps to hold open the connecting doors to our staterooms.
You simply wrap it around the door handle and thread it through the rail on the
chest behind the door. If you want to close your door, you can just slip
it off and reattach it the next morning. This way I had one item doing double
duty!"
-- contributed by Michelle
B.
SUPER SCRAPBOOK
"After our last trip
we purchased the Disney PhotoPass professional scrapbook. This was great
because I'm a guy and not a scrapbooker, but she let me do the book. I worked
on it when I got home from work, which kept the magic alive after the trip. It
was a lot fun picking the pictures and designing the pages. We are going
to take it back in December of this year to get the autographs of the
characters in the book. We love the book and it's definitely a great
souvenir. The pages are thick (like the yearbook pages), professionally
bound and the front cover is engraved. It was nice to be a part of the
memory-making instead of just the memory-paying part of the trip!"

CAPTAIN'S CORNER: Treasure
Hunting Game
==========================================
Play our fun and quirky
treasure hunting game, hosted by Captain Jack Skatt from our book,
"PassPorter's Treasure Hunts at Walt Disney World."
The Captain makes a study
of the delightful details -- sometimes hidden, sometimes in plain sight but
often overlooked -- at Walt Disney World and aboard the Disney Cruise Line.
Using notes from his journals, he will lead you to this "treasure" at
Disney with clues, questions, photos, or riddles. Your challenge is to discover
the answer by searching your memory, visiting Disney, or even just looking
really hard on the Internet. If you think you've found the answer, e-mail it to
jackskatt@passporter.com -- the first person to correctly submit the FULL
answer will receive a free PassPorter enamel pin or PassPorter name badge pin.
Here is this week's
journal entry:
"I've been so
engrossed in my treasure hunting as of late that I've been neglecting my sleep.
As a result, I fell asleep on a friend's bed yesterday. The bed was quite large
and comfortable, and best of all, located right inside the Magic Kingdom. The
only drawback was all the stuff strewn across my friend's bed, such as his
book, reading glasses, and red-and-white striped pajamas. The baseball-themed
lamp next to the bed is a nice touch, though."
Where is this big bed in
the Magic Kingdom and to whom does it belong?
For bonus credit, locate
the photographic evidence in the PassPorter Photo Archive and post a comment
with the photo!
Send your full answer to
jackskatt@passporter.com -- the winner will be notified by e-mail and announced
in a future newsletter, along with the correct answer!
Congratulations to Alisa
N. who was the winner of last week's trivia contest! Alisa was the first person
to identify the location of the fortified island where Captain Jack took a nap
as Caribbean Cay at the Caribbean Beach Resort. Bonus points to Keating who was
the first person to identify the photo in our PassPorter Photo Archive. To view
the original clue, see last week's newsletter at http://www.passporter.com/news/news051508.htm#captain

Q & A WITH JENNIFER
& DAVE
====================================
1DisneyMom asks: "I
am thinking about purchasing a Visa Gift Card for our cruise, but I am not sure
whether or not they are worth the hassle. Can I throw in a Disney Gift Card as
well or should I just stick to a real credit card? This is my first cruise, so
any info you guys have will help."
Jennifer and Dave answer:
"The biggest advantages have nothing to do with the cruise line. Since
you're spending the equivalent of cash, you won't have any interest to pay when
you get back home.
The biggest disadvantage,
is that, since it is cash, once/if you exhaust the cash value, you must return
to guest services to deposit additional funds. If you put down a credit card,
it'll be like the Energizer Bunny; you can just keep spending, and spending,
and spending.
You'll need a minimum of
$500 to deposit. Look at your overall budget - gift shop, alcoholic beverages,
spa services, shore excursions, gratuities, etc. It could very well add up to
more than $500. If I were planning to go with cash-equivalent instead of a
credit card, I'd make sure my cash equivalent (gift card) was big enough to
cover the entire budget, with a bit of wiggle-room added in.
If the gift card will
cover only part of your estimated expenses, put down a credit card as your main
source of funds, and visit guest services soon after you board to apply the gift
card to your account. That way, when the cash is gone, you won't have one of
those embarrassing moments when you're not allowed to spend more money - your
credit card will pick up the slack."
