We were at Disney World on Wednesday, we were suppose to stay from Monday the 30th to Sunday the 5th. It was suggested that we may want to leave early because of Hurricane Frances. I will be interested to see how Disney handles the people who left early because of the storm and what happens with early departures and world hopper tickets like ours.
