Got back last night from a wonderful trip to DLP 
I can't think of any lows so i'll just list our highs!
The weather - cold in the morning and beautiful warm sunshine by lunchtime every day. Not a cloud to be seen and sunglasses were needed - fantastic!
The crowds - Almost everything was walk on, except the usual suspects, Crush, BTM etc. We had hotel fastpasses, 1 each per day, and we really struggled to use them. Thursday was by far the quietest i've ever seen DLP.
The shows - both the villans showtime and the new generation showtime were fantastic. Very well done, and the music was wonderful. The parade was excellent too with an add on of villans after the normal Once Upon a Dream Parade. Studios parade was great too - enjoyed the dancing mid way through and Lewis loved Stich as Elvis!!
Buffallo Bills - great night here, Lewis was in cowboy heaven! John wasn't keen on the food, but he is fussy......
Character meets - all the organised meets had minimal wait, and Lewis met Jack and Buzz twice, on different days.
The hotel - DLH - our family room was very big and plenty of room for all 5 of us.
CM's - never met a cross/grumpy one yet. Everyone we met, whether in the reception, breakfast, parks, corridors all smiled and said hello. I think the old saying 'smile and the whole world smiles with you' may be true here, as I never had a smile off my face the whole time we were there

Overall an absolutely wonderful time had by all - only complaint is that I now have sore feet!
We would most definitely go at this time again, we did everything we wanted several times over - and we're all missing it already
I'll start a trip report at some point today, maybe this evening, once i've trudged through a weeks worth of washing for 5
