I just discovered this thread and read 8 pages into it before I saw how many pages there are

can't read them all.
Will be at POP 9/30-10/7 with DH, DS14, DD7 and DS6. We have 2 connecting rooms. DS14's friend bailed out on us, otherwise we would have saved some $$ by staying at POR.
We are driving down from MA, leaving after 11am on 9/29 so the kids get credit for that day at school. Plan to arrive sometime in the evening of 9/30. CRO has assured us that we can check in remotely for this night if something happens and we don't make it to Orlando that day. Can't miss out on free dining!!!
Will be attending
MNSSHP on 10/2. Just bought our pirate costumes this weekend. I know, we won't be very original, but I wanted us to match as a group and pirates were the only thing all the kids agreed on.

We have an extra ticket we bought for DS14's friend who is not coming.

If anyone needs an extra ticket, let me know. I may bring it with me and try to give it to someone that day.
Anyone else planning on being early for opening of MK on 10/1? We are excited to be there for the premier of "The Year of a Million Dreams" and are wondering if anything special will be happening that day.
We are also concerned about how we will be able to handle both free dining and F&W festival. Have done both before, but not at the same time!
