Back home from a TERRIFIC week in Disney!!

[michelle2139]

I received such valuable information on this board that I wanted to share our experience! We, family of 4 ,just returned form a Awesome week at Disney! 12/10-12/16! This is our 2nd trip, last trip was 3 years ago same week in December.
I will write a detailed trip report this week- but for now here are a few highlights.
*Magical Express- Excellent Service
*Coronado Springs Resort- Loved the resort! Last trip we stayed at AKL which we loved as well. This resort did not dissappoint. Great bus service.
*Meal Plan- as everyone says, tons of food, well worth the $. Had some terrific meals ( I will be posting a trip report on the restaurants)
*Parks- visited all 4- really enjoyed each one. This time was great, my youngest now 7 could ride on everything! Even though the park seemed busier than our last trip- we basially waited no more than 5-10 min for any ride.
*Dreams Unlimited- excellent service! Agent is Shirley who I highly recommend.

Everyone was very nice and helpful- we had a magical trip and can not wait to plan our next!
Any questions ask away and I will be happy to answer. Again, I will post a trip report sometime this week with the details.

I would recommend this time- As far the weather I would have like more sun, most of the trip it was cloudy- but the temperature was great for the parks! Tee's during day- sweatshirt mornings/evenings. We had some rain but not much- more like quick showers a few times. Last trip same time was much colder but very sunny the whole time. I think in December the weather can vary but it is a terrific time to go.
The Christmas decorations were beautiful!! I have been twice in December and do not want to go any other time because I love the whole atmosphere. So many decorations.. The Osborne lights in MGM were amazing!! Our resort, CSR was decorated as well- the Christmas trees were beautiful!!

Everyone have a great time- yes we can't wait to plan our next trip
