Disney Express query

[jellybabie68]

We didnt want to have to go to the hotel until later in the day as we arrive at 12.15pm on Saturday and leave at 8.15pm on Sunday so only have half a day on the saturday and full day on the sunday.

Then I would most definately say opt for Disney Express.
Personally I would stay in the park on Saturday until closing - is that 10,00pm ? then I'd go back to the hotel, check in should be quiet at that time. You probably won't get a choice of time for breakfast on Sunday, but I'd be at breakfast for 7.00am, drop bags off at hotel and head for EMH at the parks.
With so little time in the parks I'd be intending to make the most of it.

I guess it depends if you think the convenience of getting your park tickets on the train is worth £15 each per adult.

To nip to the Santa Fe yourselves, with your small cases, check in, get your park tickets, and get back to the park, you will probably be no more than one hour anyway (I've arrived at the Santa Fe with, and right after, a VEA coach drop-off before, and not spent longer than 20 minutes waiting to check in).

mm think we will do that, go straight to hotel then and not pay for the express, we could only do 1 night this time because of work committments, but hey 1 night 2 days is better than not going at all liking the sound of lockers at the station - are these big enough for a 20 inch suitcase and where abouts are these in the station? we didnt really take much notice of the station set up last time as we were too worried about getting OH on the train home as he had lost his passport - but thats another story

The lockers are huge and cost 9 euros for the biggest - there is a change machine there. It's on the top floor of the station and is signposted. You have to go through an x-ray machine but they seem very relaxed about it!
