ok so I'm already planning...shoot me

which scenerio do you like?
I am looking at 8/23 - 8/30 2007. I plan on spending at least one day at Sea world and possibly one day at Universal. I got prices for the polled resorts and am kinda leaning to the Contemporary...the new rooms are gorgeous. I need to make a choice in two weeks. I have to get this booked and start paying.

I voted Contemporary. IT's a great resort, and those new rooms ARE fabulous! Right on the monorail, and you've never stayed there before.

Plus, you may be more comfortable with Sara going off by herself with such close proximity to the MK!



I love it when you're planning!

Re: ok so I'm already planning...shoot me

I voted Contemporary, I think it would be a nice change for you & I agree with Erin about being so close to MK, maybe Sara can go off on her own for a bit leaving you a little more flex time. I think Contemp. would be a perfect location! Oh, and yes, the new rooms are AWESOME!

Re: ok so I'm already planning...shoot me

I went with Contemporary NOT just because I love the look of the new rooms.

I'm thinking of the heat of August, and it just seems like the MK proximity would be best. I realize this really doesn't make all that much sense, but it did when I voted.

Contemporary. It looks like such a cool place to stay at, plus there is so much to do there.

Re: ok so I'm already planning...shoot me

I voted for POFQ.

A - I know you love POFQ.
B - While I haven't seen the new Contemporary rooms, I'm not a big fan of the Contemp. Also, the graden rooms are a surprisingly long walk from the monorail, I think you'd end up getting better overall transportation options at POFQ.
C - Contemporary is SO FAR away from DTD and the other theme parks. I think especially when travelling with teens, POFQ is much better geographically.
D - I want to live vacariously through you b/c I've never stayed at POFQ and we really wanted to stay there last December. It was booked and we ended up at CBR. It was good, but....

So, right now, I'm standing on an island..

Re: ok so I'm already planning...shoot me

Matt -
Your reasons are valid ones. I loved POFQ and it is the easiest on my pocketbook for sure. I like the idea of the Contemporary too only because I have never stayed there, the rooms look cool and it is very close to the MK. SAra won't be going off the resort property without me this trip. It's only going to be me and her and I don't like her going anywhere solo....a group is another story.
I have two week to decide. Keep those votes coming. Sara will also have some say in it of course. This is our last big blow-out trip. She starts high school the year after and we are going to have to go less and stay not as long and probally go for the values, so I want to do this trip up right.

Hey, life is better when you have a WDW trip to plan..
