I have gotten myself so confused! I did it too myself but now I have too many choices. Please help me decide what to do!
A little background: We are going on a Mariner cruise out of Port Canaveral for 7 days - Sunday to Sunday. I got a great airfare into MCO but it is on Thursday and we fly home on Tuesday. Giving me 6 days to fill 3 on either side counting the day we get off the ship. They make you leave WAY to early! Also counting our flight days. Of course my first thought was "We are going to Disney!" But it will be July and hot and crowded with only Friday, Saturday, and Monday as true full days. A lot of money for tickets for a pretty short time.
What would you do?
Choices:
1. Swan teacher rate of $149. for all 5 nights before and after and 7 day park hopper tickets for 4 @ $1000
2. Sheraton Vistana teacher rate $111. (2 bedroom) for 5 nights and Seaworld tickets 2 days for 4 @ $215
3. Embassy suites ( at Universal) for 5 nights The movie and meal deal rate $155. Universal tickets for 4 @$348 They expire before we return from the cruise. So we don't get the full advantage of the 7 days.
4. Some combination of above like the first 3 nights at Embassy and the last 2 at Vistana. Or the other way around
5. Some other combination using old water park tickets and mini golf.
As you can see I am lost! Of course I want to say on site and do Disney but it is a lot of money for what we would get. We have never ventured to anything offsite so that would be a new experience.
If you are still with me Thank-you. Give me all your great ideas please!!!!!
