Okay everyone.....you made me do it. I changed my request to Grandstand after hearing all the rave reviews. I will still be happy if I end up in one of the other sections, but I am keeping my fingers crossed to end up there. I especially like how it is first on the bus pick up--I would hate to be waiting for a bus, to have it have to pass me by because it was already full. I will be traveling with my DH, DD (who will be 4 by then) and my MIL and FIL. I think DD will enjoy the pool at Grandstand, but if not, we can always go to the main pool as well. She loves riding the boats--so we will definitely be taking them over to DTD instead of walking. Last year we stayed at BWV, and one of the biggest thrills to her was riding the boats to Epcot and MGM. I really can't wait!
This will be the first time we visit in November--coming to see the Christmas festivities. We are hoping for low crowds the week after Turkey Day, since that is what DD is used to. (Last year we visited in September and walked onto everything.) Hopefully if there are many crowds, the Christmas decor will distract her from having to stand in lines!
This will be the first trip for my MIL and FIL in 20+ years. The last time they were there, Epcot wasn't even finished yet!!! They really don't have a clue of what to expect because the place has changed so much. They have just been going along with whatever plans we are making, because they don't know what else to do. I am hoping they enjoy it.
Keep all the good info coming! Thanks to everyone!
