Great diary of your stay, We have just booked for over XMAs this year. Can you tell me how busy the parks were? esp XMAS day and the evenings for Dreams.

Thanks

I hope it's not a case of planning your last trip,  you never know, Rachel might decide Disney with her mum is cool at any age ( I want you to tell me she said that, I'm scared Dylan will say the same too)

Hopefully you won't have anythig to worry about, I took my Mum to DLRP for Christmas and am saving for us to go to WDW sometime in the future and I'm 20 so hopefully you'll have many more trips to come!

My advice, for what it's worth, is to stay at Port Orleans French Quarter, its beautifully themed and is fairly compact by WDW standards! The caribbean Beach resort is huge, not like our lovely resort hotels!
I trust you are ashamed at not riding the Tower of Terror! Next time maybe?
Thanks for the advice captain rocket, we've going so many decisions to make about WDW so going to look into all of the hotel options.

I can't believe Dylan wouldn't do ToT again!! I've told him we're definately doing it in May! He's still not convinced though ;)

Wow Kelly, looks like you had a great time! Dream of going at Christmas one year!

We are goin in May, your trip report has made me even more excited! I know you didn't have a good experience at the character brunch but will that still be on in May? I thought it was only cafe Mickey and princess meal that had characters now?

I have stayed at the carribean  hotel it is lovely. It is big but the buses come every 10mins and you can get the bus to each part of the hotel aswel as all the parks. Each area has it's own pool and it's own little sandy cove. You will love it!
Thank you for the lovely comments and advice on WDW.  The Carribean Beach resort looks lovely but so big!!

When are you going to DLP in May? we are going half term week, we might see you?

Will our 4days be quiet or busy? Sooooooooooooooooooo excited. After going to Disney express desk Disney end what time are we likely to get out of the train station?   Any sign of Brave or Doc mcstuffins yet? Either characters or merchandise?

There's lot of Brave merchandise in the shops but didn't see any Doc McStuffins bits. You never know, they may have added the Brave section to Dreams by May, fingers crossed.

You should be lucky going mid-week as its still term time so the park should be pretty empty  :D

The character brunch in the Steakhouse will still be on but it's only on a Sunday  :(
