It just gives you a feeling of accomplishment to have it all booked, doesn't it, Diane? And, of course, I totally understand an extra day for cheaper airfare. I changed my signature because I keep talking people into spending more.

That is a great airfare! Congratulations, pal!

 

[carissanboys]

Yay about the extra day!!

Thanks Amy, it feels great to have that out of the way! Now I can't wait to pay the whole trip off! I see you talked someone else into spending more money too (adding a whole other person) Disney should give you something for your marketing techniques!

Thanks Carissa! Just like you guys

No, I think they only fly out of Atlantic City!

 

[Trentmom]

No, I think they only fly out of Atlantic City!

For those price, it would be worth it to maybe try that myself in October if need be

I just got back from POFQ (ok, it was September, but it FEELS like just the other day - except I'm SOOOO ready to go back, it feels like forever ago...)

The point was... it was beautiful and I totally fell in love with that resort!!!

That is it as far as the theme parks go......Did I miss anything? Please let me know!

Go for it! If you join the $9 fare club you will be eligible for
"extra sale fares". They have different deals almost everyday!

[carissanboys]

Sounds like you've hit most of the major things to do in all of the parks. Seeing DeVine last year was awesome!!

Okay, I reread this as I was tired and wanted to check your list again.

For Disney Hollywood Studios,. your son might like Lights Motor Action(car stunt show) ...It is a little loud, though., My dad hates loud noises and he was so mesmerized, the sound never got to him.

Great Movie Ride and Muppets!!!!!

I missed Muppets last year and was so disappointed....

For Epcot,

Gran Fiesta Boat Ride in Mexico. itT was redone as Donald Duck in it now and I think your ds would really enjoy it... We rode it 3 times in a row

Finding Nemo is a great ride, too!!!

We have seen Lights,Motor,Action a couple of times and we enjoyed it but there are other things that we have never done that I would like to do first! I forgot about Great Movie Ride, the boys LOVE this!

Nemo ride is fun but not a must do and the fiesta ride we will def. check out as Matthew and Bryan never got to do this last year! Thanks for your input!

I was bound and determined to find DeVine last March! It took a couple of different tries, but well worth it.

Where did you end up finding her if I may ask? Thanks.
