We made our first-ever reservations at the Bay Lake Tower at the Contemporary Resort for May 6th and 7th... I was actually surprised we got the reservations because they are tough to get (we've tried before). Then I realized why we were able to get them - May 6th and May 7th are Grad Nights at the Magic Kingdom. So there goes one of the big benefits (to us, anyway) of staying at the Contemporary - staying late at the Magic Kingdom for the parade and fireworks and then walking home.
So we canceled our ressies at BLT and rebooked at Boardwalk for those nights. We'll stay late at Epcot and walk home instead.
I think it's great that Disney has a night for graduates but two weekend nights, two weekends in a row, all at the Magic Kingdom? That's a big chunk out of the Magic Kingdom (the most popular park) for someone who is staying that week.
Mostly I'm just bummed because I was really looking forward to staying at Bay Lake. Guess that experience will have to wait...
