We bought AP Dream passes in July 2006 (179€ each) and so far this year we've easily saved more than the cost of one of the passes. for each annual Dream pass, we got a 20% voucher for shopping and a 20% voucher for meals - rest of the year u get 10% and lots of other stuff (there are 3 of us tho so we got the 20% collectively 3 times). We booked into Newport Bay Club for christmas and got 10% discount across the board for that (we paid £977 for 4 nights in NBC and the Tinkerbell dinner on xmas day, so add 10% to that)

Saturday and Sunday are extremely busy, but week days the park is near empty. On a 90 minute lunch break we had lunch and then went on Big Thunder Mountain, Space Mountain and Indiana Jones as well as catching the Parade. Does help though with access backstage. Last two days the weather as sucked, absolutely poured it down. It's cold and damp. Will report back on tomorrow and thursdays weather for you later in the week.

well the weather wasnt as bad today, though quite cold, didnt rain though.
Blue Lagoon as an excellent restuarant, I think it is the best visually. Though you don't get characters there its alot more peaceful. You should defo go there. The character eat and meat etc restuarants are...Cafe Mickey which is in Disney Village, Plaza Gardens, Lucky Nuggets.
