It's off topic - but if we are taking anyone to Disney World, we are paying for things while there. If I was unable to afford to pay for the entire trip for someone, I would ask them to pay for something like the park tickets or the airfare, some fixed price that would be pre-established. Once we get there, I don't want hear anyone whining about costs. (Though this has always stopped me from bringing my BIL - he dines like everything is a la carte - asking for this and that and this and that off the menu. Dinner with him costs 2-3 times as much as a normal human being. (And he has no money - so I don't know where he got this habit.) I know if I ever took him to WDW it would drive me crazy when it cost $130 for his dinner at BOG.
Back on topic - am I the only one more excited to hear the announcements for the F&W culinary demonstrations than all the
D23 stuff? Reservations for F&W open on Wednseday for those with DVC and TIW, and I NEED to know what all the events are so I can plan what to ask for!
And yes, the D23 stuff is neat too. I am kind of bummed that we aren't going to get to see all this neat Star Wars preview stuff by waiting to go in 2019, but then I remind myself that in 2019 DLR is likely to have the real thing open - though admittedly it'll be a madhouse.
