That's the plan. We'll see if it works. WHF is gonna nap for a few hours, then I will, then he will...at least we hope.

We're considering the idea as well - just don't know how well the kids would sleep in the car. :shrug:

Oh...well Mike has done it before and he says his kids slept...but for you all, with Joel for you, I'm not sure if it would work.

Thanks Jenny. :kiss:
I think so too! The weather was awsome yesterday and today- around 50*!

I just remember on our first trip to WDW, Joel fell asleep in the car, and when we did stop at the hotel, he had leaked right thru his clothes and pull ups (potty training was a pipe dream in those days), and was shaking and crying at waking up in a strange place. It cost a little extra to stop, but I think we'll all be in a better mood because of it. Even if we get to Orlando on Saturday a little later than we might want. We have no plans to do anything that night anyway, except a character dinner at Chef M's, so it isn't really a huge deal. :shrug:

Yeah...that's true. That'll be nice for you all.
We just want to get down there and will try doing it the fastest way possible.

:kiss: Well, in my book you get the wife of the year award, because if my husband wanted to drive to WDW, I would tell him "That's why they invented airplanes". :lol: Luckily for me we are in agreement that we will NEVER drive to Florida.

It's still cheaper for us to drive, despite the convenience. :brick:

It's too expensive for us to fly (I guess that's what happens when you have 10 people in a family). :lookaroun
So we always drive...a nice, relaxing 18 hour drive. :lol:

Well, it ended up being a heck of a lot cheaper too...that was my way I got behind it. Trust me...if it weren't a lot cheaper, I'd be flying

I've done a bus trip to FL... never never again. We fly or we don't go. It takes too many of Marc's vacation days to drive. :dazzle:

True...trust me...I'm not the most excited about it, but it was the way we got to do it. Plus, we won't have to rent a car down there either, since I'll have mine, which makes it even cheaper.

DH did the same thing, in junior high. That's why he says never again. I just can't see taking 24 hours (if we go straight through) out of our vacation, there and back, when we can be there in 2.5 hours on a plane. As long as airfare stays around $150-$200 each, like it has been, we'll gladly pony up the cash and fly.

You're very fortunate - I have yet to see prices that good, the lowest I've seen is $250/person. Maybe it's just pricier around here. :shrug:

We are very lucky, because we are the same distance (about a 45 minute drive) to either Boston Logan or Manchester, NH. Jetblue is out of Boston and Southwest is out of Manchester, and they both offer nonstops to Orlando. And they get into fare wars alot... I've paid as little as $59 each way to Orlando. Delta offers nonstops to Orlando out of Boston, too, but they just started charging a 1st checked bag fee, so they would have to have a really good fare for me to book them.
