DW and I actually contemplated getting APs for this possible upcoming trip...because of discounts we could get along with free parking (will be staying offsite the first half of the vacation with other family). But then Disney goes and releases 30% discounts on resort rooms anyway...which means the APs would not be worth the extra money. Now...we still want to go back in Jan 2012 for the Marathon...which would totally make the APs worth it. So...we'll see if we can afford 2 trips in one year.

And yes...I am a Star Wars fan...but DW couldn't care less...so seeing all of the Star Wars stuff at DHS wouldn't be worth it. If DW ain't happy...ain't nobody happy.

It would be cool if they could have a permanent STAR WARS exhibit at DHS like the Smithsonian up in D.C. has.

Wow! I wondered if he was even home yet from the marathon :shock: He's a lucky guy to get go to WDW two times that close together. Bet he'll have more fun this time with you there :D Make sure to take lots of photos to share in a trip report ~ hint! hint! :D

He will take lots of photos I'm sure. As for the trip report I'm making no promises you will have to wait and see.

Like I'm one to talk :roll: I've been home almost a month and I am only up to Day 4! :lol: But that is really mindflipper's fault since he encouraged me to start a report for both my Tokyo and Paris visits :D

Haha Mindflipper is living up to his name messing with your mind,don't admit to anything and tell everyone who asks that you are slowly telling the trip report as you are reliving every day as you tell it and savoring every moment again.

My fault?!? :shock: Would you do everything I say? :roll: If I said to give up your job, move to Orlando, and become a cast-member at WDW, would you do it? No, wait a sec, that's a bad example... :? ....forget that, never mind.... :wink: :lol:

I actually have been enjoying looking back through my trip photos. It is amazing the details you forget after 7 years! Plus I figure everyone knows what WDW looks like but not as many have been to the overseas parks. Although I'm guessing you might have been at least to DLP Sleepy?

Not necessarily. My UK friends had been multiple times to WDW and DLR over the years, and yet this past October 2010 was the first time they ever went to DLP. Then again, it may had something to do with the fact they're not fond of the French...
