cant wait for the tr don. i went thru the same thing about 11 years ago. things at wdw were changing, just didnt have the same effect anymore.was getting to expensive to stay at car. beach. it just didnt have the same wow as it did for the last 25 years for some reason. never did put my finger on it. dw talked me into buying into dvc, (not saying thats the answer by no means) and my view of the entire place had changed. i think after riding the rides a million times, dd no longer believe that that was cinderella, it was like, ok, whats next, been there, done this. we started slowing down, enjoying the parks yes but also went hotel hopping, hay, whats over here? and hanging out on all the property. started making diner the first night on our trips to okw things like that. than the parks didnt seem like old hat anymore. i think what happens after a while is the excitement of seeing the mk parades, fireworks for the first few times fades and you dont get the same high. im here to tell you, dont give up on the place! dd will say one day, hay dad, go on the tea cups with me? and go. next trip she will say, hay dad, go on space mtn. with me? and go. hay dad, go on rockin roller coaster with me? dont go!!

theres not many places were you can go and spend time with dd and it dont matter if you 10 years old or 50. tall or short, male or female.(except the restroom). my dd is going to 18 and a sr in high school. she wants to forgo a grad party and go to wdw with her mom and dad for her grad. present. she gets just excited about going now as she did when she was 5. now, dw and i are starting to plan what we are going to do on our trip as a party of 2 again. its just another step. i hope i hit some of the problem for ya.
