Hi
I know this has probly been done before, but I was just curious, after reading another thread about what it costs for your families to go to this magical place.
And how do (the ones that can anyway) afford to take a family and stay in the AKL or Boardwalk Villas for 2 weeks.
Last year we went to Cuba, 3 weeks all inclusive, fantastic time, Havana, swim with dolphins the whole nine yards. With excursions and a bit of spending we blew just shy of 5000.00.
The year before we had 2 great weeks in Tunisia all inclusive and again with spending about 4500.00
Only going to Devon this year (no, before you Devonites start, Im not knocking it) so next year we are now booked for POR, 3 weeks in July with tickets and spending for the 5 of us (3 kids, 2 ads) its going to knock a whole in what?, 7500.00 say. Which is a fair crack of cash, It will take us a whole year of my wifes part time job to pay for the hols and tickets and part of the spending. I think we have had a good price on the accom, so I was wandering how the hell does a family of 4 or 5 stay in the really top hotels?
Just being a nosey sod really, but when my wife said to me "since we went to wdw in 2002, including next years trip, our last 5/6 hols will have cost about 26000.00" it makes you wander how we all aford it.
Cheers
Steve, ok I am rambling a bit, but you get the point
