    Driving or flying????

    I'm all for driving too! We live 17 hours away so sometimes we drive straight through and sometimes we stop. Even with 3 kids we enjoy the experience of driving. No rush, no busy airports. We have our car and can pack what we want. Definitely cheaper for 5 to drive even if we get a hotel...

    Best breakfast buffet?

    We like Crystal Palace and Tusker House for breakfast buffets. We like the character buffets so I'm not sure if you are wanting them or not. Crystal Palace has your traditional breakfast items while Tusker House has a some African flare mixed in. These are two we never miss.

    I can take my one year old on??

    We have taken our kids as young as 5 months. If it doesn't have a height requirement anyone can ride. I'll give a breakdown of my impressions of some rides. Feel free to ask about any others I don't list.... Animal Kingdom We stayed in the stroller most of the time here, which is fairly easy...

    We are doing a split stay in July. When the AP discount came out Friday I modified both reservations using the new feature with no problems. It was quick and easy.

    Stroller help

    We have 3 kids and have always done the sit and stand, but I made the investment a few years ago and it has made 5 trips to WDW so well worth the money. However, I know if you already have one good stroller you probably don't want to invest in a new one. They do have these add-on standing...

    EMH and transportation....

    Trying to finalize our plans for our upcoming summer trip. For morning and evening EMH what time does transportation begin and end for the MK resorts? We've never stayed at an MK resort so I have no clue about transportation. I know the monorail is having all kinds of refurbs and issues right...

    Split Stay Thoughts

    Been there. Done that. Won't do it again........with the kids. Packing for 5 people is hard enough and having to pack AGAIN is not how I want to spend my vacation. :eek::D;) We like to settle in and not go anywhere. If it were just me and DH then I would consider it.

    For those Moms/Dads Who've Been with Kids: Touring Plans?

    Our kids are now 10, 7, and 4 and we have been going to WDW with them for 7 years now. One year I tried to follow a strict touring plan and ended up throwing it out the window. So instead we do as @Weather_Lady has stated and plan little chunks of time giving the kids a huge say in what we do...

    Memory Maker Opinions

    I'm going to also recommend it! I know CMs will use your camera to take pictures, but only a few. My kids love meeting characters and I love seeing all the candids that the CMs take with photopass. I am always too busy enjoying the moment to worry about taking pictures so I leave it up to the...

    Planning a Trip for the second week in July, Am I crazy?

    My hubby is a school administrator and gets 4 weeks off during the summer that just happen to fall in June/July. We go almost every year during this time. I agree with pp's about staying hydrated and taking breaks. Since you are staying on site you will get to take advantage of extra magic...

    Good enough for a second ADR?

    Thanks for the great replies! We go to WDW every year, but have yet to experience BOG. My DD will turn 8 during the trip and I think she will love it. I'm thinking I might keep both ADRs for now. We have lunch scheduled the first week and dinner scheduled towards the end of the second week...

    Good enough for a second ADR?

    We can definitely keep both. I just wondered if 1) it was worth it and 2) is this something a lot of people do? We have our favorites, but I have never thought of booking an ADR twice in one trip. ;)
