Wow. that is pretty impressive!

This deal got me to change my Dec trip to a May trip. It was going to be the same price, but this way I can pay for tips and apps or drinks and all the "I wants"

It is a great offer!! Had I known it was coming, we'd have waited to go back this year. I definitely would prefer a GC to free dining anytime!

From what I;ve been reading the 1st week of May isnt to hot yet and it will be the Flower and Garden Festival. Can you think of a better way to spend Mother's day?
I understand though. Sorry I changed our dates, it just sounded like a great deal. Now I only have to wait 117 days instead of 300!

Jimmy and I also figured since we've already been in December we would do some other times too so we can eventually do all the festival's and sctivities Disney has. Next time we'll probably do Halloween time for Mallorie's bday and our anniversery. Then we can do Mickey's Not So Scarry Halloween Party.

You are absolutely right ! We've been in early May and the weather is perfect. Nice and warm ( mid 80's) and very little humidity. And the crowds are very manageable.
The Flower and Garden Festival is our favorite. Epcot is so pretty this time of year.
You will enjoy this trip, I promise ! It comes pogo approved !

I am with Pogo on this one. May is a perfect time to go. Great weather, beautiful flowers and light crowds. You will still have some afternoon showers but enjoy them... they chase everyone else away.

Patti and I have been to WDW in late April four times and early May once and we have NEVER seen a drop of rain until we went last year in December. While we loved being there with everyone and the decorations were beautiful, if we ever go again it will be in Late April or early May.

Well I'm thinking about changing to May now. Patrick doesn't care when we go, so I asked Fern if she'd rather go when there are pretty flowers blooming or the lights are on the castle. She said flowers so I checked to see how much it would be, Caribbean Beach Resort with a pirate room and deluxe dining is $3,479.49. I just don't have the $200 to book today. And we have decided to drive and not fly. I just don't want to go through the hassle of an airport with 2 kids, plus we'll be able to drive ourselves to and from the park.

Your going to do the Delux Dining?
I'd take a airport with 2 kids anyday over a 9 hour car ride....lol
That would benefit us, you can bring our beer for us!!!!!
