Update: saw Sister in Law and her husband last night. She & I hung out in the kitchen, and she told me she had gone to Disneyworld (with their 7 year old son). I asked how the trip was. She shook her head, and said she pretty much hated it. It was SO crowded. I said, "You went the week leading to Easter. Of course it was". I said she could go another less busy time, and she said it was the son's spring break. I siad I had taken my kids out for a week at that age; what will they miss? She said they got fastpasses, but didn't know that after your third you can book another. I said if she had called me, I would have told her that. The list went on and on, how miserable it was. She said they ate hamburgers and hot dogs, and it was so expensive. I'm like, I never eat that at Disney; there is so much good food! They honestly don't vacation much, even though they are both individually millionaires.
I said if she goes back (doubt she will, ever), call me. They took the autotrain down, drove to the parks, not sure what hotel/motel they stayed at, didn't go to Epcot (she said she didn't think their son would like it, but I know him, and them, and know they could spend a week at Epcot! It's been my kids' favorite park since they were 2 and 4). Only did 3 park days. Anyway, I listened and told her I could help with getting a decent price even at a value resort if they went back, but I think they felt they owed it to their only child to take him once, so now their obligation has been met. It was really a bummer. PS: they drove home then. The train trip was free, as her husband had a ton of Amtrak points (I priced it once for us, and it would be like double the cost for us to fly).
