[quote=Anonymous]I say Yes because we did it. granted we didnt have a full week, and was on a pretty limited budget.

My daughter came home and told me her job was sending her to orlando for a conference and wished the kids could go. my DH and I talked about it and said lets do it. I would say I have 5 weeks maybe to plan the trip. Maybe 6? i cant remember.

Anyway, we did not stay at a resort, we got lucky and found a hotel in Lake Buena Vista for like $55 a night. No frills, 2 pools, spray park area for the little ones. My daughter left over the weekend on the plane (paid for by her job). DH and I and kids  left here at 9pm Tuesday night and drove to Dunn, SC, where we stopped for the night, and then arrived in Orlando around 7pm the following evening. We did Gatorland on Thursday, Disney World on Friday and Sea World on Saturday. My daughters flight took her back home early the Sunday morning and we sent the 3 yo back on the plane with her for $100 so it would be a quick trip. The 13 yo rode back with us. Was a long trip but we made the best of it and had a BLAST.  We took some food so we could eat breakfast in the room, lunch was in the parks, and Dinners, we went to Golden Corral one night, ate at Disney World the night we were there and ordered to go from Ihop the night before we were coming home.

We are planning another trip down for next year, spring break for a full week. Will still most likely drive down, but will be more planned out. All in all we had a great time!!

To be honest, I get overwhelmed looking at the website for the resorts and such. It was actually nicer to just do a quick planning to be honest, doesnt leave much time to have to think about things LOL Oh and we were like 10 miles I think from Disney, if that. And there was even one resort that was on the main strip where we were staying.

A couple links a friend sent me:

The second one is for lodging, like renting a house/condo. Some are not bad priced but not sure how their availability is. that is what we will be checking out when we go next time, getting a house/condo, since it will be a week and we had rented 2 hotel rooms for the 5 of us and my niece an her baby met us down there. SO def a house next year.

I say go for it! and enjoy
