We went in Oct. 2005, stayed at Disneyland hotel for 10 days. It was our 10 year wedding anniversary, and yes we splurged. We don't go to trips often so this was the grandest of all :)<BR/><BR/>Don't think twice, just go :)Liza on Mauihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03051821265972125935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563034037227257342.post-50742496510916550482007-03-12T15:20:00.000-07:002007-03-12T15:20:00.000-07:00We took our three kids in 1996? to DisneyWorld, in...We took our three kids in 1996? to DisneyWorld, in Florida, because we live in N.C.<BR/>They were three, five and seven (I think) and we did a five day hopper-pass and even included Sea World, and a day trip to Cocoa Beach, where their daddy lived for a short time in the 1970's while his dad worked at NASA. We found their old house and even visited an old neighbor, that still lived there. <BR/>We had a fantastic time. We had a pretty tight schedule, but managed to spend a two day stint at a water park (Blizzard Beach) because that's what the kids liked.<BR/>I remember, my husband and his brother getting sick from spinning out of control on the Alice in Wonderland Teacups!! Priceless. <BR/>Plus, one good thing about kids under 12 is they eat free at many hotel packages, with a paying adult, and I clipped Sam's Club cereal box coupons for "one free kid, with a paying adult" , which we were able to use with all three of our kids; cortesy of our aunt/uncles with only one kid; since there was a two kid per coupon limit! Hey---that coupon was worth $49.50 per kid X three!!! $150.00!!<BR/>We had a great time.<BR/>Go for it; but plan wisely! Take lots of pictures!

Was suppposed to go in January until we got there and the weather was too cold and windy to be outside all day at Disneyland prices, I bet it will be a blast for you and your family.

It would definitely be a dream journey, but I can also see your point about how this trip would be different than the other times you've been there. I think overall, though, it would be a godo experience for you all.wrchilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01117935090937352862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563034037227257342.post-80415240329546967172007-03-11T16:14:00.000-07:002007-03-11T16:14:00.000-07:00Having been to Disney World more times than I can ...Having been to Disney World more times than I can count, with childnre from ages 5 to 25, my advice is certainly to go. My other best advice to you is do not try to see everything! Pick and choose wisely in the parks, and leave before the children get completely exhausted. If you can go during an "off season," when there are fewer crowds, even better. Don't feel pressured to do too much, and every one will have a better time.<BR/><BR/>Hope your dream journey is a dream come true!Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14623887166087444590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563034037227257342.post-31967958182342079322007-03-11T15:29:00.000-07:002007-03-11T15:29:00.000-07:00Being a parent myself, I can completely identify w...Being a parent myself, I can completely identify with your dilemma.

Even if the lines are too long, just have as much fun as you can. Your kids will probably love it!

But- and this is a big but, it's still so much fun! Just take things slowly, rest when you need to, drink plenty of water, eat and have fun! There is just no way you can go and NOT enjoy yourself- it really brings out the kid in all of us!<BR/>There are days and times when you don't have to wait hours in a line for a fie or ten minute ride- all it takes is a little prep! <BR/>I do hope you get to go, Bongga mom- it's really worth it in the long run- oh, the memories you'll have!Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14287107184977896696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563034037227257342.post-79559166910929054322007-03-10T19:47:00.000-08:002007-03-10T19:47:00.000-08:00I have never been to Disney World or Land, but fro...I have never been to Disney World or Land, but from what my roommate says about it, I think my (future) children will HAVE to go at least once. <BR/><BR/>Great Post!Karen Travelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02540548158220943992noreply@blogger.com
