    I know what you mean. Where I work is about 75% female so I have learned the proper manners and ettiquete needed for survival. This is my only my 5th trip to WDW in my life and the third with my DW. This trip has taken hold of DW and I in a way none of the other trips ever did. She is in...

    That is what we are hoping to do, I have some experience with long driving, just not this long. We figured I could get us on the way and then start the switching and save DS and DD some of the trip by letting them sleep through the first part.

    Thanks Nono The route is one of the decissions we have to make. We are about one hour from Fort Erie and about three hours from Windsor. Google maps says that e Fort Erie way is 22 hours and the Windsor way is 22 hours 44 minutes, so there really isn't much time difference. DW (karmalady)...

    Trying to decide on photopass+

    That is good to know. DW and I ordered about the same time. We were thinking long and hard about this purchase and it just finally was a "Let's do it" type of decission. Now we are both looking forward to everything we can do with them.
