Originally Posted By Kennesaw Tom Now that I have gotten my breath back..... Oh, I'm sure they are going to have an incredible time at WDW.

I think initially they thought that was kind of weird and they didn't understand why I would constantly return to WDW for vacations. I told them that prior to any vacation. I would sit down and write down all the things I want to do while on vacation. Swim, visit foreign places, eat different foods, maybe take in some museums, shop, go on amusement rides. And I always end my list with Laugh, laugh, laugh. I told them that I can do all that in one place, WDW. So they tried it.. and said it was the BEST vacation they had ever ever gone on. So they are believers too. This is going to be their third trip! So far they have stayed at Coranado Springs, The Wilderness Lodge and this trip they will be staying at Pop Century.

What a totally sweet, thoughtful and considerate thing to do. Very cool to hear that you turned them in to WDW Vacation Believers! LOL. I hope they have a wonderful time. They're kids are at just such magical ages. This should be a great trip!

All alcohol must be signed for ( at each resort front desk ) prior to it being delivered to the room. I really really really like the Mickey Christmas trees. I'm not sure if they will ship those. I know they say you can purchase them on property and they will provide you with a box to ship it home.
