I'm a little worried. My honey works in a hospital and one of the surgeons asked her help 2 days ago with planning a trip to WDW this weekend. They just decided to go out of the blue. Both parents are surgeons and their kids are a 3 year old boy and a 1 year old girl. They booked a room only at AKL and will be buying one day tickets at the gates. Needless to say, they don't worry about money or a budget, like most of us do. I was asked to offer any advice that I could on what to do where and when. They didn't even research this trip enough to know that park hopper tickets never expire.
They basically have no clue how to do it the Dis way. lol
So, I set forth on a quest to give them the best advice that I could in a short amount of time. But, I still worry that with the crowds the way they have been that I am throwing them to the lions. They have never been to Disney with kids before. I think the mom has been at some time in her life, but I'm not too sure about the dad. Heck, I have never been to Disney with kids that little before either. Needless to say, I tried, but who knows how this is all going to work out.
I know that I am not really responsible for their happiness with their trip, but I hate it that their first family trip to WDW is going to be at a time when the parks are at or near peak.
I did advise them to avoid MK on Saturday. I gave them the run down on how to attack the parks for maximum ride advantage, but I don't even know these folks or their kids.
I feel so guilty. I really would love to have been able to explain all the why's behind the advice I gave. I like helping, but I really like to know who I am helping and have the time to talk with them about what they want to accomplish and how much they really do know about WDW.
Oh well, thanks for letting me vent. Anyone else here ever get roped into helping the clueless masses? Maggie
