My Trip planning

So, it is getting close to time that I need to start making some real plans.  I am about 100 days out from ADR date so I have to plan my trip specifics over the next couple months and then book with Disney.

I am still having a hard time deciding if deluxe dining is for our group or not.  Then I am trying to determine if Art of Animation Little Mermaid or Pop Century is the way to go.  Then in the back of my mind I am also trying to have a plan for any upgrades and the estimated cost associated with them (weather or not it will be worth it or not).

Big part of decision making process revolves around a couple things:
  • Specific dates
  • How far can we drive before we need to stop?
  • What is the cost if we stay offsite the first night/last night are the savings worth it?
Right now I think the best thing for us will be to drive as close to Disney as we can, then stay offsite maybe about an hour out or so.  I am planning on finding some place for under $90 that has continental breakfast, pool, and hot tub (at my husbands suggestion to help us recover from 13 hours in the car).  It looks like there are going to be some options on I-4 around 30-50 mins from Disney.

We also will be making the drive back at more of a reasonable pace and stopping somewhere about half way through the drive.  For the last day of our trip I still think that splitting our reservation so that the last night does not include dinning or tickets will be the most economical.
