BMT For Those With Dependants

Well, hopefully I wont be grad-n-go. I'd love to spend a few days with my wife and daughter before A School. I think It'll have to be the Navy Lodge where we stay, just due to the price. I'll look on Priceline soon to see rates in and around my PIR in October. I'm assuming major hotels will be more costly then since its in a fall/winter season. (isnt that the way it works? Or do prices go down around that time lol) Thank you guys for all the help on the "To Do" and the "To Take" list lol. I'll publish a final copy when the Wife and I get to sit down for a minute and write out a final list of things. If there's more to add then let me know now lol! Thanks again all!

We've always used the "name your own price" feature on there to get good deals. I don't know how that would work for that weekend though.. BUT call around to the different hotels,they all have some pretty good military discounts for PIR weekenders!

We stayed at the Comfort Inn which was right next to the mall. Our reservations had been to stay from Thursday-Monday, but due to Michael heading out to Biloxi after PIR that day, we ended up checking out on Saturday morning and fortunately the staff was understanding in what we were doing and didn't charge us for the 2 nights we weren't going to be there. They have an indoor pool there and breakfast in the lobby. We were there at the beginning of January (last year) and while we didn't use the pool, a lot of folks were in it and I'm sure they were all happy to have it inside and able to use with all of the snow that was on the ground.
