No Room At the Inn

I just called the familiar 407-W-Disney number to book our room.

We stayed at the Caribbean Beach Resort a few months ago and really enjoyed it. We had planned to return there in April.

I was told they were sold out.

In fact, I was told the entire property was sold out with the exception of the Honeymoon Suite at the Wilderness Lodge. As lovely as that sounded, I had to pass. I'm sure something will open up, but wow!

Is Disney immune from the threats of the economy?
