Obviously Disneyland or World is fabulous, but very expensive. We have been

there twice. They treat us verrrrrrry well! Customer service par excellence.

Beaches work fine for us too. What does your son like to do? My girl does not

sit on a beach just hanging out - she plays in the sand, loves to throw rocks in

the water (along a river), loves live theatre (one of the reason Disney is

great), loves to play in the pool (wearing a life vest). We have taken her out

on a wave rider thingie - she LOVES anything fast....

Hey Kathy,

The Jersey Shore is nice. They re-did Asbury and there are rides and

different things to do on the boardwalk. In Rhode Island there's Rohoboth nice

beach area with a boardwalk with lots to do.

Amanada is usually happy in any hotel where there is a pool

Hey have fun, where ever and come to Coney some time in the summer!

Thanks . I plan to work on my tan this summer. Liam's a beach and pool

guy, too.

Yes, he's a beach and pool guy. I looked at WDW and we may do it. Then I

started thinking cruise and Disney cruise. I honestly worry about him on a

boat. He'd have to wear a life vest 24/7.

WDW is great. When we took Josiah, several years ago, he was a Toy Story fan.

We got there early and he rode the Buzz Light-year ride several time before

there was a line to it.

I've never wanted to go on a Disney Cruise. They may be good, but I only

imagine a cruise 'overloaded' with spoiled and tired little children crying a

lot. LOL I may be way off base with that....it's just my opinion of what might

happen.
