Tiny correction, it's actually - Jan. 3rd in GCH & then Jan. 4th - 6th in the Villas!!

We had a slight change of plans. Still driving down on the 29th but staying that first night up near the Regan Museum. Then instead of Univ we are going to see the D23 exhibit and end up at the Staybridge on Sunday night the 30th. We will be staying at the staybridge through the 1st and then moving over to the DL Hotel from the 2nd through the 5th.

SOOO excited to get to stay on property for at least part of the trip AND hoping the continue the magic mornings at DCA through that time!!

Jumping in, going Jan 19-23 and then heading down later on the 23rd to visit friends in San Diego.

We're staying at the Park Vue.

Can I ask about how much you are paying at Park Vue? I was planning on Park Vue for sure, until hearing about the no light dinner...now I'm not so sure. I'm trying to decide if it is still worth the high price.

We are going in January...probably the week of 7-11....it is our first family trip!!! I'm excited and nervous about all the planning details.

Just curious...Is that week still Christmas break for any California schools?

$528 for a Queen room w/bunk beds. It's an AARP rate, which I think is the same as AAA. I booked it from their site. I didn't know they offered an evening dinner. We were going to book BW PPI but they were sold out. So we went next door.

Park Vue does NOT do the dinner anymore.

Thanks for sharing the price. That helps me out a ton!

Anyone else know when California kids go back to school after Christmas break?

This will vary by district. I live in Northern California. My kids will go back January 7.
