Sandy Introducing herself

[macsandy1957]

Hi, I'm Sandy. I will be returning to Disneyworld this fall with Eric, my adult mentally handicapped son (functioning age 10 or 11). I surprised him 3 years ago for his 30th birthday with a trip, but he knows about and is having lots of fun helping to plan this trip. His birthday is November 3rd and he wants to go again at that time because he loved loved loved all the cast members and other guests wishing him a happy birthday. (we were there for 11 days and he wore his birthday button almost everyday, haha) I wanted to go early October because on our one day at the beach in November it was too cold to get in the water. Will it be warm enough early October? Anyway, didn't mean to write a novel, just wanted to say Hi! and thanks for all the great info on this board!

As far as the "beach" question--- Would it work for you to consider the Gulf of Mexico side over the Atlantic? I know it's further, but I've found it warmer longer. If not, I have visited the Atlantic side but in Miami in the late fall and could get in the water. I guess it's really up to how the weather goes

It's a great idea to wear the birthday button every day while at WDW--we did that in January with DGS for 8 days and was impressed with how many CMs acknowledged him.

thanks for the welcome! Now I'm thinking of renting a car and driving further south than Clearwater Beach, which is where we went last time, and flying out of Miami or somewhere.
