I thought I was making a solo trip until about a week ago. Now my son is joining me and I am looking forward to sharing a trip he won't forget with him! :) You can probably tell by the following "schedule" that I have had a lot of fun planning this trip. ;) It may look full, but there is a lot of rest time for me built in. And it is flexible--nothing is set in stone! I am typing my "Pretrip report now, because with school winding down--I have many long hours ahead of me at school and will not have as much computer time! :rolleyes:

Characters-- Piper (mom--58--have some physical challenges--will be renting ecv offsite--use a forearm crutch for balance) 5 trips to WDW--only one with son which was not a good one because of a travelling companion complaining the whole trip --son was 14 at the time and we stayed at a DTD hotel.
Son -- (37) doesn't remember first trip at all--just remembers Mickey telephone his sister bought! :confused:
