My wife and I have plane tickets and a room reservation for Columbus Day weekend, but I am still unsure of whether or not we're coming. One of the big reasons for visiting was to come see our son at work, only he is no longer employed by Disney. To say that some of the Disney magic is gone would be an understatement. I think we'll be there from October 9th through the 14th, but a lot depends on how my wife is feeling on October 8th.
I would love to attend MNSSHP again, but that would REALLY be pushing it. As I said before, time will tell. Have a great time and, for goodness sake, wear a costume. You'll have a ball.
