Hi :wave2: ,
This is my very first post. I tried really hard to find a post with my question in it. I know how annoying it is when people post the same thing over and over. I use to be a board host on AOL. Anyway, I am so undecided on the type of WDW tickets I want to buy. Here's my situation, maybe you all have suggestions for me.
Family of 4
2 boys 11 and 8.(..both going on teenager-ish)
never been to WDW and it will probably be a long while before returning (we don't vacation much)
staying offsite at Caribe Royale
Staying for a week in August
Definitely want to do Magic Kindgom, a water park, and Universal(I know that's not WDW..so have to buy separately)
Not sure if my kids would like Epcot or Seaworld
Seriously considering Animal Kingdom, but don't know a lot about it.
We are going to do a beach day and at least one day just hanging at the hotel pool.
Here's my question(s):
Realistically how big of a package do I need as far as park hopper days/parks? Do you really need to be able to go back to the same park on more than one day? Exactly how do the park hoppers work? I don't want to spend money unnecessarily, but also don't want to miss out on anything really cool.
Also, is it a lot more expensive to wait until I get there to purchase tickets?
Thanks for any tips you can give me.... :dance3:
