    Hi, love the panel! 2 questions, coming back next yr for second visit with daughters 5&11 & hubby, stayed @ GF last sept-amazing! But now thinking try AK in June? Weather/Crowd? And secondly when will we be able to book for 2014 with free dining?

    Lyndsey, thank you for your kind words about the Disney Parks Moms Panel. We love question asking guests!

    Waking up to giraffes, antelope, and zebras grazing outside your window is a unique experience your family would love. Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge is architecturally stunning, offers activities oriented around animals and African culture, and provides restaurants with a slightly exotic flair. Your princesses would enjoy one of the rooms with bunk beds and the fabulous pool here.

    My family typically visits Walt Disney World each June early in the month before the heavier summer crowds arrive. Last summer we stayed at AKL and had fabulous weather. Only one hot day the whole week! Do expect some warm days with highs in the upper 80s and occasional thunderstorms in the afternoon. 

    When, or even if, Walt Disney World will offer free dining in 2014 has not yet been announced. Traditionally this great deal is released 3-4 months in advance, though sometimes free dining is offered as much as six months ahead. Special offers may be applied to already booked reservations. As long as your booking qualifies, there is availability, and you request the deal, free dining could be added to your package.

    Please contact me if you have any additional questions.
