    My husband and I are planning a vacation in Dec. 2009, with three children two girls (6 & 3) and my son (5). We have narrowed our choice of resorts to the Contemporary or the Polynesian. Which would you suggest?

    Hi Kenneth - I'd definitely recommend staying at the Polynesian.  My family stayed there in May on our family vacation, and we loved it!  Not only does it have beautiful theming, great restaurants, and a wonderful pool, it's also extremely convenient for transportation throughout Walt Disney World.

    My family stayed in the Tahiti building, which is closer to the Transportation and Ticket Center than the Grand Floridian, and found it to be very convenient.  Each day, we just walked a short distance and were able to take buses to Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios (and these buses went directly to the parks, were frequent, and uncrowded), or the monorail to the Magic Kingdom and Epcot. 

    I hope that helps!  Have a great vacation!
