Hi all! Since my husband is proving not to be too helpful on providing feedback or opinions I thought I'd turn to you
I am surprising my 6 year old in April with a weekend to Disneyland (picking her up from school heading straight to the airport!) The main reason is that she was bummed when I've made mom girls only Dapper Day trips and because I need to see the electrical parade again and it won't be there in October for our Halloween trip So I though that I'd combine lots of wishes in one weekend.
We go about twice a year but we have never been just the two of us. I'm comfortable flying and traveling with her in general. We are going for Spring Dapper Days and are deciding between DLH and GCH. We have stayed at PPH and DLH several times. Love both for different reasons. I'm debating GCH this time since it now seems to be in the security bubble. Since it's just us girls I'm thinking it might be a little safer (less walk, etc). The price difference between the two isn't much with the convention discount ($40/night). However DD obviously loves the DLH and pool and GCH pool will most likely still be closed for refurbishment. But with a quick trip (3 days) there's not a ton of time for swimming. So between these factors (safety bubble, pool and price) I'm neutral on both.
Are there any other factors I'm missing? I completely understand this is a personal opinion but I just thought I'd check to see if anyone had ideas or have been in a similar trip situation.
Thank you to everyone on the boards - I don't post often but I read here almost daily to daydream about Disney and so appreciate all of your commentary, tips and advice!
