    WOW, youve all obviously spent a lot of time day-dreaming about this,(so have I). I have read things i didnt even know existed. This has been so much fun, keep the ideas coming, and if I ever do come into lots and lots and lots of money, you will all be in my thoughts!!!!!!

    i really don't think that me and dw would do anything different except stay at a different resort. now that being said we stay at the ASMU , not because of finances but because we are up at the crack of dawn and don't return to our resort until the end the day, so with that said, if we were going to change anything we would probably stay at the AKL, and keep everything else the same because we do park hopper and water fun , plus we get the Deluxe DDP. the money part of it if we would ever win lotto, would make it possible for us to go more than we do which right now is twice a year.

    If I won the lottery, I would buy a house in Celebration, get a job at WDW (hopefully to become the monorail driver that I have always wanted to be!) and then every Thursday I would find some CM that was looking down or having troubles and give them my paycheck from WDW. That would be my dream come true!

    Of course, I would spend everyother waking moment in the parks!
    It is my dream to one day pilot the monorails around the Seven Seas Lagoon....where's my star!!!

    I would take my family and my closest friends(32of us) and we would spend 3 weeks in 3-4 OKW Grand Villa's. We would do as many special tours, events and parties as we could fit in. I would also buy into DVC!! Then it would be Disney at least 2 times a year for my immed. family!!

    What a fun thread! Here's my wish...

    1 week at Beach Club, 1 week at the Poly, 1 week at Wilderness lodge.

    I would NEVER ride a bus! Only monorail, boat or cab!!! My feet would still hurt from walking the parks but I want that part to stay the same.

    DD7 and I would do the My Perfectly Princess Tea Party at GF which we have skipped due to price!

    And we would do the dolphin swim thing at Epcot! DH and I would spend a full day at the Spa at GF and we would have dinner somewhere we could watch the fireworks sitting down!!!!!!!!!!!

    I would sent DH and DS5 to the Richard Petty Driving Experience. When DD7 and I do our tea party!

    I would buy my whole family Christmas gifts at DTD and ship them all home already wrapped!

    Thanks for that escape! Now, back to reality!.......

    We'd spend a month,between thanksgiving and christmas, to enjoy all of the holiday decorations.
    1st week at AKL
    2nd week at GF
    3rd week at Contemporary
    4th week at Poly

    -Deluxe Dining Plan
    -Keys to the Kingdom, Backstage Magic, Epcot Segway and Sunrise Safari Tours.
    -Fly all of our family down to spend a week with us, then surprise them with invitations to see DH and I renew our vows. We'd have the MK shut down a few hours early to have a special night time ceremony in front of the castle, we'd arrive in the glass pumpkin. We'd have a wedding cake made by the Main Street Bakery and eat it in the middle of Main Street where tables were set up and the "snow" would be falling and then we'd get our own private fireworks show and we'd get to spend the night in the castle. a girl can dream can't she? lol

    I'd do a 10 day trip in October. I'd split the say between DH's two dream resorts... Poly and CR. I'd eat in all of the signature restaurants I've always wanted to try

    Well, I'd definitely stay for two weeks during the slow season, stay at the Grand Floridian, swim with the dolphins, and I would pay whatever they wanted my to pay to stay in Cinderella's Castle Suite for one night. I'd also plan my day around amazing meals that I would never book other wise -- I'd fly first class to Orlando and have a limo pick us up instead of the Magical Express. I'd buy whatever I wanted.....most importantly......

    This is really great!!!! I love day dreaming!!

    I would stay at GF in the Walt Disney Suite! I would stay at WDW for about a month! and during the month, I tried to dine at almost every TS restaurant, especially Victoria & Albert's (at the chef's table)...I'd take an Illuminations cruise, and get a private tour guide/escort for the length of our stay!!!

    I love Walt Disney World!!!!! :)
    A Happy Visitor since 1974!!!

    I would spend a week each in the resorts just outside MK, (Poly, CR, GF) in the best rooms/suites. Then I have always wanted to do like they did in the movie "It could happen to you" and give little suprises to people at the parks, I guess kinda like being my own little dream team. Would be fun to go to the ticket booth and say buy the next 5 families behind me their park tickets of course without them knowing.

    For sure I would stay at GF! It's so beautiful...

    Since we have to watch our spending each year while we are there, there are things that we don't get to do.

    I would do every tour, definately get the Platinum dining pkg, and hire the Disney tour guide for at least a couple days.

    I'm sure there is so much more though!

    I'm not sure it would change our vacation too much except maybe changing from a regular room to a suite. We pick the resort, because we are interested in trying it out. We base everything on what we like to do. We eat at the TS restaurants we like for the character interaction, and do CS the rest of the time so that we don't lose too much "play" time. Not too interested in the tours or a guide. I guess we're just boring.
    I'll meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.

    I would go as long as it took to stay EVERYWHERE and do EVERYTHING! And I would foot the bill for as many Make-A-Wish foundation children who wanted to go too!

    DW and I always pose this when we have that "what if we won the lottery" game. We would go to WDW immediately and stay in a top suite and then send for our family and closest friends for a vacation on us. Once we have spent a week or so there, then we would head home to claim the lotto prize and pay off the trip.

    I'd buy a huge house off of 535 behind MK or down in Clermont off 27 and while that was being built, I'd stay at a suite at BC or Poly and just relax for like a month there.

    Default dreaming

    I daydream about this all the time . MOney no object in DW. I would stay on the 7 floor of the WL in the biggest room they had facing the lake. I'd buy a pontoon boat to take me out on the lake to watch the fireworks every night. I would dine at all the best restuarants and tip very well! And I would renew my vows at the grand Floridan WP and have the most incredible reception on the beach. I would find the price to stay in the castle suite and just look out the window and soak it all in. And I would rent out the MK for my closet 5,00 friends!!!! Thanks for the thread it was so nice to live in fantsay land for a few minutes.

    What a great question!
    Let's see, I'd stay at the AKL with a savannah view for several days and then move to the Poly with a castle view for several more days with all of my close family and friends.
    I'd love to do a safari tour at the AK, go to the Cirq show in DTD, eat in Cinderella's castle and view the fireworks during dinner, visit the spa at the GF, do the Keys to the Kingdom tour at the MK, eat at Victoria and Alberts, renew my wedding vows at the wedding chapel (this would include a ride in Cinderella's coach and a dance with Mickey and Minnie during the reception), and if I could pay Disney I would pay to spend at least one night in Cinderella's castle, and last but not least I'd rent out the MK for a few hours just for my family and friends!

    If money was no object ....

    I'd invite my entire family (whom most of have never been to Disney) to stay for two week!

    Week one would be at the Poly. Magic Kingdom view suites (the King Kamehameha suite for Dh and I). Making sure everyone is in club level.

    Week two would be a toss up ... Beach Club or Wilderness Lodge. I've never stayed at either and really want to stay at them both! Probably Beach Club just so I can watch all my nieces and nephews play in Stormalong Bay! DH and I in the Newport Presidential Suite!

    The whole trip we'd be on the premium plan and we'd do it all ... Wishes Cruise, Illuminations Cruise, Cirque, park tours, spa treatments, etc! I'd really show my family the Disney MAGIC!!
