    Last week of August....?

    We're going the last week of August too, so I've read with much interest over the last few months what to expect. The strong feeling is that the restaurants will be a zoo, but the parks will be fine.

    Upgrading to a Moderate--Offer Opinions and Help Me Choose One

    I've stayed at all the mods except POFQ and I liked them all very much. My advice would be to try a different resort for a nice little change to your trip. I'm glad I did because now our family has grown from 4 to 5 and I'm kind of limited to POR Aligator Bayou because of the trundle bed...

    Opinions of POR???

    One other perk you might like about POR is that you can take the boat to Downtown Disney. Beware of the the winding walkways. They might dis-oriant you. My wife always had problems finding the room and would've been lost if the boys didn't show her the way. It is a beautiful resort though!

    Death to this attraction!!

    Free Dining Plan Start Date?

    Question on the DDP and free plan... I am booked for 8/10 through 8/20 and purchased the DDP. If the free plan is offered in a few months, during my time, am I automatically eligible? What if for only part of my time, say the free plan is offered starting 8/13?

    Do I need hopper passes for our very first trip?

    I understand the reasons for getting park hoppers. And you won't be wrong should you choose to get them But I don't think you need it because; a) its your first trip, so every park, possibly with the exception of Animal Kingdon can be a full day for you b) you have 7 days so you have...

    slow times

    Thanks DD! Unfortunately September isn't an option with 3 boys, the youngest to be starting Kindergarten. I was thinking approx. Aug 10 to Aug 20th. I know it'll be hot, but will it rain everyday too? I lived in Jacksonville for 2 years long agao and I remember that storms blew in...

    slow times

    I'm planning a family vacation and had heard that mid- to late August is not a bad time to vacation. Suppossedly the crowds are way down since the Florida kids (and other southern states?) are back in school? Is this true?
