I know I know 2011 is along time away, but we're building a house next year so unfortunately it has pushed our next disney holiday out to 2011.
Our dates are Sept 12 back on the 30th. Should give us are fair amount of time to do what we want. In 2005 we went for 2 days less, it was a good amount of time.
At this stage we are planning on using the extra days as stop over days, perhaps either Hawaii or Las Vegas. Has anyone planned a short stopover before?
We much prefer flying at night, we'll have 9 Adults and 5 kids, possibly 1 infant by then. Wife wants a third...atleast we get a infant seat on the plane???
In 2005 we hired a house which worked reall well, 2008 we stayed in a disney hotel, 2009 we stayed in a disney hotel, its just expensive compared to hiring a house. $410 US for a house, you'd pay that per night for each room at one of the nicer DW Hotels.
The down side in 2005 (the house) was that we housing estate had no coffee shop, restaurants, etc nearby. Can anyone suggest an estate with nearby shops (we need stay near a starbucks or similar - love our coffee!)
We did like coming back to the hotel for mid afternoon sleeps on our last trip. It will be hard to push the kids all day without this. The housing estates are usually only 3 or so miles from the DW gates so its still possible, with the savings in accomodation we can afford to spend on transfers / taxis / etc but it's less covenient.
So long away, so much waiting...
