Although I've been to WDW, way back in 1974 & 1983, so much has changed that it will feel the like 1st time for me. I am taking my daughters (11 & 10) for their 1st visit. We are celebrating our birthdays there and are sooo excited! I really want our WDW vacation to be truly special for them! 
We are flying in to MCO on Sunday September 4, 2011 from AZ. We are booked to stay at Coronado Springs until the 16th. I've read good & bad reviews for this resort, I'm hoping we have a great experience there. My kids are excited about the main pool (they liked the pics of this moderate resort pool better than the others).
I want to budget our money wisely and am still not sure if we should do the quick service dining plan, any suggestions, pro, con, otherwise? Ive read good reviews of the Garden Grocer, which could save us on water and snacks.
I am also not sure how many days I should buy tickets for visiting the four parks and maybe one of the water parks. I figure during our stay we have enough time to relax at the pool, visit Downtown Disney, maybe visit Typhoon Lagoon and at least once at least three of the parks.
Ive also been learning about the hidden mickeys and the pin trading which might be fun for the kids.
So, I would appreciate any helpful tips and ideas that will make this DisneyWorld vacation the Best I can possibly make it for my kids. Thanks!
