Thanks, that is really good info for the future, I can tell you had a good time. I can remember the year Epcot opened and the food from the different countries was excellent. We also took our son who was just 4 years old to Disney World just 4 weeks after it opened. He is 54 now! Once our sons got older we just never went back until now as my nieces children came along.
As it turns out I cancelled our hotel reservations yesterday (and yes, it took well over an hour on hold.) The family was concerned not only about food but crowds. The youngsters are vaccinated but not boosted and my niece did not want them exposed to too many people. We have rented a big 6 bedroom house in Windsor Hills which is supposed to be only 2 minutes from the park and 12 minutes from Universal - if they decide to go. This way we will have a kitchen for snacks and meals and a private pool. Everybody but DH and I are coming from NJ so warm weather and being able to play outside will be plenty. I am sure they will take the kids to the park on a weekday when it will be less crowded. I wish we could use our FL discount to buy tickets for them but I understand they check ID's. They love going to Disney Springs and might try that one night.
