    For those who take yearly trips..how many park days?

    Since we usually go in Dec and due to the outrageous park prices, my wife and I do Epcot for the Candleight Processional and MVMCP for another day. When the whole family (children and grandchildren) come along, it is 8-10 days. This year is 9 days park visiting
