Also, have you checked with Tropical Palms to see if your daily rate gets lower because you are staying longer? I seem to remember noticing that once when we planned to stay there. If you can't get that to come up on the website, you could trying calling and ask....just say you've extended your trip to X number of days, and wondered if they offered a lowered rate for extended days. Can't hurt to ask!

4 DAY park hoppers ???
$680.00 that price seems unbelievable????

That's because it's 780.00...I typed it wrong.
AAA has them for 711.00 but thats without shipping and tax

the link is on the 1st page, and that price includes shipping and tax.

It seems like you've really thought this out!

My only advise would be to not lock yourself into certain days at certain parks. Stay flexible. I've gone to one WDW park in the morning only to find it was packed. so, I would leave and go to a different one to find no lines at all.

Have fun. I'm so jealous that you get two weeks. I have to beg for one!

I checked the days in Unoficiall Disney and a few other books that I have, for when it's most crowded etc.. the only thing I know for sure is that Epcot is going to be the first park. We probably will only do 1 day in Epcot, but I haven't figured that out yet. The only thing set in stone is that each park will be done 1 day. After that, if there is a certain park that we want to go back to again we will. I'm not worried about seeing it all!...not in any way actually, when this family vacations, we vacation. No commando stuff going on with us!...Which is another reason there is non-park days put in.

Thanks again everyone for all the tips and advice I certainly appreciate it...now I've just got to do some fine tuning....and I'm off to get the passporter tonigt too.

Thanks

Wow! You really have a great plan there! The only thing I have to add is that if your DD's want more of Disney there are free things to do on property. On one of your down days (if you need more of a Disney fix) you could go to Fort Wilderness and go to the petting zoo. Other things are the Boardwalk at night (has some cute entertainment and good places to eat), Downtown Disney (you've already planned that), and resort hopping. If you have lunch at one of the monorail resorts, you can park there for three hours and use the monorail to tour the other two resorts. We have small children (3 1/2) so we never do more than four days at the parks. We know we'll be coming back several more times and any more than that would be overwhelming for them. I don't think you'll have that problem with your girls, but if they've had enough remember that the days never expire. Better to not use days than to use them and be miserable. Whatever happens, I'm sure you'll have a magical trip.

Oh, and BTW we've stayed onsite and offsite and a rented home. I love onsite, and will probably stay there next trip. However, the space and privacy that the rental home provided was so relaxing and enjoyable that I wouldn't hesitate to stay offsite again.
