Hey all!! We were previously booked for September (POP/Free Dining) but I changed my reservation to August 13th-20th! We are currently booked at POP (I LOOOOVE that resort) but may change to Movies (Movies with free dining or POP with room discount). My son adores POP as well so we have some figuring out to do.

EDIT: Free dining at POP it is

I changed resorts too! Doing a split stay even on a long weekend just because I remembered how irritated I was going to and from MK from Dolphin last time. Now I have 8/28-8/30 at Contemporary and 8/30-9/2 at Swan. I plan on going to the Halloween party so being able to just walk to and from CR will be huge. AP rate for the tower wasn’t terrible at all. Swan I booked through Amex for the statement credit and perks. Swan also ended up being cheaper with my adjusted dates so I was able to snag a King room.

Anyone else as excited as we are with both water parks being open this summer??

Totally!!! If I wasn’t staying at Swan for the rest of my split stay I’d hit both of them. That’s what we’re doing on the big May trip with my partner and friend. I’ve never been to Blizzard Beach before so depending on if I like it or not that may determine which one I hit in August.

I'm more of a hanging out in the lazy river all day type of water park person so I really enjoyed Typhoon Lagoon when we did it a couple of years ago. We never did water parks in the before times and TL has been the only one open for our post reopening trips.

I also like that with the water parks and more tickets you get mini golf included and we never really got to use it due to being a pain to get to...now we will be able to play a round after we leave blizzard beach with it being right there.
