Yes, even lower groups...they might have had to save a bit for it but it was still affordable, it wasn't out of reach.  Disney is becoming out of reach to that group entirely but even more, its becoming out of reach to many in the middle class as well, the prime group Disney, I feel, as always been advertising to...most families now have to save for a good amount of time before they can go.  I went 3 times before the age of 13...I'm almost positive that would not have happened if I was that same age now.  We're a middle of the road middle class family and even a "cheap" Disney vacation for my whole family would still be in the thousands of dollars.</p></blockquote><p></p>
