The best laid plans…(recap)

[agotta]

Overall the trip was good. Kevin and I learned that no matter how well we think we know someone, we will not vacation with friends again. I did a lot of planning for this trip and I wouldn’t have done it any other way. Even though we had to rearrange our plans, we at least had a base to work with. Saratoga Springs was nice, but I wasn’t overly thrilled with it. Give me Boardwalk any day!!

The cruise was amazing and our next cruise will be a 7-day. The food and drinks were amazing and we can’t compliment the staff enough. We had the most amazing service on the boat, from every single cast member. And although there were some technical problems and bad weather, Disney did everything in their power to make sure they fit everything in.

Sounds like you had a wonderful time dispite the lack of kindness for your hard work from your friends.. I agree hard to vacation with friends no matter how well you know them.. I am glad you enjoyed your cruise too.. Thanks for taking time to write your report.. Michelle

I enjoyed reading your trip report.

DH and I always travel just by ourselves since even travelling with family has unexpected results. We learned that the hard way.

Glad you enjoyed your trip. :wave:

[Linxzy]

Also enjoyed your trips reports.

As Vivianne, I also like to travel just with my mom. With my family (sister, her kids) it's just to hectic. Hopefully, I'll marry someone that liked Disney as much as I do... or he will learn to. :earboy2:

[Nanajo1]

The pix are great. They made me want to go right NOW. Thanks for sharing.

Great pics... lots of them! You have some great ones of the castle, and the castle w/Wishes!

Where are all those cutout things at the end of your album -- with Snow White, Steamboat Willie, etc. I don't think I've seen those before!

[agotta]

They are in the Exposition Hall on Main St. If you head to the back of the store, there are those cutouts and they play Steamboat Mickey and one of the original Silly Symphony cartoons. It is nice and quiet back there.

[minmate]

Oh my gosh... I can't believe I've never seen them. I guess we've never ventured very far back into there? I don't know... Just another reason to plan a new trip! They look so cute!
