I'll be there for CV and we took advantage of the great rate at PO for the week so why not do the Last Tour to Endor too?! woohoo! It will be one great big Star Wars vacation for my husband and I!

Anyone know when they will be opening? We are planning a trip in August and want to bring our dogs with us.

That's good to know - I don't need the passes and wasn't aware of this option!

It really looks great so far!

I just got back from a quick stay at the Sheraton Four Pointes on International Drive near Wet & Wild. Got a good rate ($79). The rooms were decorated in an Art Deco style with old movie posters on the walls, big round mirrors, funky lamps and sconces. We got upgraded to the 'Club' level which...

Registration is open for 501st to march at SWW. We are marching every Fri, Sat, Sun this year. So if you are interested, head over to the FL501st boards! I am marching 1st and last weekend - all three days and maybe the two Saturdays in between.

I wasn't aware when I bought the express pass that it could only be used once per ride. I looked at my pass last night and it was actually a VIP Pass so maybe that is different than the Express Pass.

The Prop Room looks cool - I may do this since I will definitely be there.

My husband and I got the Express Pass tickets last summer and never had anyone initial them (maybe we just got lucky). We used them MULTIPLE times on rides like The Hulk and no one ever questioned it. Generally they looked at the pass and waved us through. It was a huge timesaver - we didn't...

Wow! Looks great!

Thanks for all of the comments! I am looking at some other hotels now.

I had rave reviews from a co-worker who stays there 3-4 times a year but ya'll don't seem to match his opinion so I guess I am back to the drawing board.

Anyone have any experiences with the Holiday Inn Sunspree Resort? I march in the SWW parades every weekend in June and will spend one weekend onsite but need to find more reasonable lodging the other three weekends.

GORGEOUS!!!! What a beautiful picture!

If you want autographs from the stars (not the characters), you REALLY need to be there early as they use a fast-pass type system for it. I know some people that line up 3- 4 hours before the gates open to get the autographs. Have fun! I will be there marching as a stormtrooper all four weekends!
