Since we decided to activate our annual passes for a quick weekend trip in the summer, we decided to book a fall trip as well.  We planned to travel during a long school weekend in early November.  The girls had an early release on a Friday, plus the next Monday and Tuesday off from school.  If we could get down there on Friday, we could have four days in the parks! read more
