Headed to the Grand Floridian Sept 17-24. Never stayed there. Can't wait!

a day???? It would be cheaper to pay out of pocket for a few extra meals!

I had the same thought. It would cost us over $600 total to upgrade to the DxDDP, we never could spend that much extra OOP.

September park hours are out!! Probably not totally 100% yet but it is a start.

Thanks so much!

I am so torn. We booked 9/29-10/8 to take advantage of free dining, and will be there for DD6's b-day. We had originally wanted to go in November to celebrate DS2's b-day (which is what we did when DD turned 3 in 2007) but switched it to Sept/Oct b/c of free dining. But I was looking in to renting DVC points, and basically for the same exact cost, we could get Deluxe digs in November and pay OOP for the DDP. Staying deluxe would be really nice, but we would miss MNSSHP and I would have to wait another whole month for planning!

Anyone have any thoughts?

Have you ever gone to MNSSHP before? I'm a firm believer in going to everything once (parties, different months, etc).

Can you rent points for September/October?

 

[MamaJessie]

I am going Hmmmmm what might be coming for Oct 1- anyone else curious like me ?

We head out October 1st and plan to be out on the road early. Unless of course they do something cool and then I may just have to leave later in the day.

Page loaded, off to go check the hours more thoroughly. Usually I plan on using the EMH but since we are off site I am trying to avoid the EMH parks

Oh I'm so excited to see park hours! Now I just need DS to go to bed. Think I can convince him he has school tomorrow and get him in bed within an hour?

Awesome, thanks for the head's up! This is my first time using TGM. I used TP last time and used it totally wrong. My subscription for TP also continues into November, so I'll be able to use both for this trip, just for kicks.

I was so surprised when I popped in over there to have the PM saying they were ready. I almost choked. In fact I might have yelped a little.



I never feel like I can REALLY plan anything until I look at his suggestions, no matter how many times I do them and re-do them before he posts the LCPC.

Ooooh! I'm so glad to hear this. It seems that breakfast food is breakfast food is breakfast food.... for the most part. We're doing Everything Pop for most of the breakfasts since we don't want to waste our dining credits. The prices for Everything Pop seem very reasonable too.

I'm a huge fan of breakfast foods so that may have something to do with it, but they offer a huge variety of different items. We were at pop for 7 nights and WL for 2 nights and much preferred the breakfast at Pop. They even have a choco chip pancakes kids meal which was a great option for my DS. Sometimes we would get an adult meal and split it because the Pop waffles are HUGE. We would get that with sausage and a side order of scrambled eggs and split it. I think I may have to visit Pop for lunch. The turkey ciabatta was to die for.

We are going in WDW in March and just booked time at Pop and SoG for Labor Day Weekend 9/2-6. Super low rates at both. Now to decide if we want to split time at both resorts or cancel one of the reservations (and if so then which one)! indecision! Both bookings were <$65 per night hotel only. We are getting our tickets with military 4 day pass special.

We loved the food court at POP too! There was always a ton of great food and it made it easy to find things even my picky kids would eat Can't wait to go back!!!
