MYW with Dining or MYW Premium? Anyone tried both?

[apostolic4life]

DW and I are planning a trip (just the two of us) for May of 2007 the week of our 7th wedding anniversary and we are considering the MYW Premium Package while staying at POR for 7 nights/8 days.

We have been big users of the Dining plan when we take our family and thought we would try the package upgrade and do a few more things like shows and resort recreation along with the parks since we will be kid free. My question is, Has anyone used both types of package and if so, can you compare or contrast them for me??

Is the premium package a good upgrade? Will it give us a fair amount of satisfaction?

Thank you in advance for any advice!!

Both my husband and myself have used the premium plan for our last two trips to the world. Let me just warn you it's alot of food! You kind of feel obligated to sit down and eat breakfast, lunch and dinner because you have paid so much for the plan. I think by the end of the week we must have gained 10 pds apiece. We've also used it to go see Cirque du Soleil, which I must say is GREAT! Even if you don't get the premium plan, pay the extra bucks and go see it, I think it's the best show at Disney. We have never done anything else with the plan because we can never find the time to since there is so much to do as it is at the parks.
I'm actually looking forward to trying the free dinning plan in september when we go. We're spending alot less money and spending more time in the parks.
