    DCL vs WDW

    We do both WDW and DCL - frequently we do DCL every 12 months or so and WDW depending on our other plans and our point availability as we our DVC members. I would say I agree that we never use our DVC points for a cruise as it is not a very cost-effective use of points. We tend to prefer DCL...

    Curious...Do you take your kids out of school for cruise??

    Didn't even think about it in elementary school - now that both our kids are in middle school we don't do it because there is too much work to make up. In elementary school they didn't miss much and making up the work was easy- we felt family time was more important...

    Opinions from those who've sailed on the Magic recently...

    Feeling completely overwhelemed

    Having been to WDW multiple times (and several times with my entire extended family) I agree that planning a trip can be overwhelming. However, I will agree with what others have said and say that you should first research your resort options and pick a place to stay first that fits your budget...
