Sorry ahead of time for this long post, if you are reading this thanks for reading. We made our first trip to the World Sept 2016. 10 days with 5 park days, stayed at WBC and really enjoyed everything about our trip. We were not sure when we would make it back(We live in Honduras so it is quite a trek). My mom's health is declining (COPD) and we have been planning a big family vacation for 2018 and she just got her vacation dates May 21-25 so that included the weekends May 19,20 and May 26,27 and 28 (Memorial Day). She is in Kansas. She loves the outdoors and fishing. We were first thinking Silver Dollar/Branson. But she has never been to Disney and we loved out last trip and we we loved out trip over when we explored and ate at Trails End. So DH wants to do WBC because he loved it. I want to give my mom outdoors and fishing. We have four kids so the cabins are out, tent camping is a little too rustic, too much like our real life and as we would have to buy everything so it would not save anything. I am thinking, rent an RV and have a small tent for the kids to sleep outside, weather permitting. I want to be able to save on food costs as well as save our tummies for the culture shock of food coming to the US so the kitchen is a must. So in May our kids will be DD 13, DD11, DS9 and DD 7 plus DH and I and my mom. What size RV and type (total newbie but have looked at a ton of photos so on overload) would you all think for our family dynamic? I am not sure how many days we will be at Disney yet, still crunching numbers. I am also considering split stay with WBC to please DH if we can not get the dates to work out on Memorial day weekend at the Fort. I have read all the great reasons why you all love the fort, so selling me is easy, just need best sleeping for our nights
