Default Disney Vacation??

Ok guys so we're thinking of taking the kids to Disney over winter break. Any suggestions on where to stay and where not to stay? First time going, so any help would be great, best place to book?

Is it better to get a package or book everything separate? Let me know what you guys think?

Disney Land or World?

Either way two things we've found.......stay at the Disney Hotels and get Fast Passes.

Their cruise is also exceptional.

Grammatical error #1 using Disney and cheaper.

You can minimize expenditures but thinking cheaper is being dishonest with yourself!

The Fast Pass system is a no-brainer if your kids and you want to go on the majority of feature rides. You can stand in line a long time which destroys your scheduling.

Then there's the priceless side of Disney..........

One thing I noticed the last time I was there. It is NOT the happiest place on earth. Do not let them fool ya.

But, my kids love it and we are always looking into going again. Last time we pulled the camper and stayed at their camp ground. That was awesome.

I also opted out of the meal plan. It was cheaper for us to just buy the meals straight out.

Isn't that the truth! I remember having the same thought. Like after my fourth trip through it's a small world. Definitely a target rich environment for creating a photographic documentary of crying kids, temper tantrums, and stressed parents.
