You can read all about it in the link in my signature. We went for 9 nights (5 at the CR Tower MK view and 4 at the BC). The GAC worked perfectly and every CM was just lovely. We also rented the Macleran Special Needs stroller since DS's new wheelchair wasn't in yet. The Macleran was a life-saver and allowed us all to have a wonderful time. DS rode Soarin', Test Track, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and POC all for the first time and LOVED them. This is the same child who 2 years ago had major meltdowns on Peter Pan and Tomorrowland Transit Authority. What a difference! We were prepared with ear plugs, pen flashlight, explaining everything in detail ahead of time, staying in the stroller until he had to transfer. He was the one who asked to ride on his own which was the BEST part of all. Overall, we still prefer the monorail resorts for ease with the wheelchair/stroller, but we did have our car this time. That was a huge difference in time getting to the parks and overall ease. We have a Disabled parking sticker, and the CMs were very helpful in showing us where to park. If you have any questions, please ask.

:tink:Yes, the Macleran folds very easily and was great for the parks. We rented from Discount Mobility. They were quite easy and pleasant to work with. The GAC was a necessity and made everything easier. The CM's couldn't have been nicer about it. Have fun in October!
