UPDATE TIME!
It is a good job that I enjoy planning as everything is a little up in the air for our 2019 trip. As you know, we have booked to stay at POFQ for 14 nights from 29th June 2019.
Well...
Things have changed a little and may change again. My Mom started showing a little more interest than usual in our next trip and then asked if she could come along. I thought she was joking at first but she really wasn't. My Dad doesn't fancy it as he doesn't like long flights anymore but said that he would pay for my Mom to come with us if it was ok with us.
I totally get why she wants to come along as Jemma is almost 16 and so will soon be too busy with her own social life to visit her grandparents every weekend and Joseph is at the perfect age to enjoy the characters etc as he will be 3 and a half when we get there.
Her last visit was in 1998 when my parents took my sister and I when we were teenagers so things have changed quite a bit and she has never stayed on-site before.
So... I did a bit of research and decided that the best way to do it would be to just book an extra room at POFQ with upgraded dining plan and then Jem can share with my mom if she wants to so that we have all got a bit more space.
That said, I am a little torn on whether we should consider OKW 1 bedroom villa if and when they become available at 330 days. Any opinions would be much appreciated.
Just a couple of days after booking the extra room I suddenly realised that our current dates would mean flying out the morning after Jemmas year 11 prom. As we normally stay over at the airport the night before I am not sure that it is going to work so we may now have to move everything back 24-48 hours.
We have also started planning our dining so I will update again soon with a list of where we are planning to go!
