    What to see first?

    Mickey and Minnie are up front when the park opens meeting and signing so that would be a great place. It took us like 30 minutes to get signatures and then move on. There are other characters there as well

    I WAS so excited about WDW, now I'm not...

    You never know. One day in the parks and they could be hooked. I was really disappointed in our March trip this year. It was a last minute thing. SIL wanted company so MIL said she'd take the kids for the week if we would accompany her (she was 20). I had high hopes of exploring Epcot since...

    I second the belz outlets. If nothing else do a search for them. They have official disney outlets and some of the stuff there can still be foudn in the parks for full price. They have same stuff cheaper. Lots of stuff is 50% reg price.

    Crowds next couple of weeks

    Any guesses as to how much of an effect Frances will have on the park crowds?? I hear of a lot of people moving their dates back another few days to a week, think that will make crowds bigger than normal for this time of year?? We were hoping to beat the crowds by going this time of year but...

    Going to WDW next week - worried about consequences of Hurricane.....help

    I am wondering the same thing. We are driving and while I don't think Frances will affect our plans too much I am hoping that Ivan doesn't head that way while we are there. I will not put my family in that type of danger, even for our first family vacation.

    House versus resort for a family?

    I dont' forsee us ever staying on-site. We are renting a 4 bedroom 3000 sq ft house for 923 including all taxes, pool heat and spa heat. It is just simply too expensive for us to stay on-site with being a fmaily of 6. I think in the long run even if we were only a family of four that after...

    For those who drive to WDW ????

    We did a 'trial run' on a 5 hour drive to Michigan a few weeks ago. We ahve a VIdeo in a bag. It worked out GREAT!!! Even the baby (12 months) who doesn't watch TV liked them. I got viewmasters at Wal-mart dirt cheap. I gave them to them part way. I got my older two game boy advances and...
