Word has started to spread here at work that I'm going back to Disneyland. Of course that comes with the common questions of "why are you going back already?". Uh, its been a YEAR. "What is so good there that you have to go back?". Ummm, unless you been there, you wouldnt really understand! Then the questions turn to "dont you know there are other places you can go on vacation" Yes, we know. We like Disney. We know exactly what we are getting for our money!
One guy in particular is always commenting on how nice it must be to have money to go there all the time. His kids (teens) have never been. Today I finally asked him how much money he spend in a year on bowling. Him, his wife and all 3 kids bowl. They bowl almost every weekend, plus on weekly leagues. They bowl a LOT. They spend a LOT. I know that its at least $10 per week, per kid to bowl in the league. That doesnt include the compitition and special things they particpate in. I pointed out to him that this trip is only $1800 for 6 days. That is air, hotel and park hoppers. That quickly shut him up! He spends more then that in a year on bowling!
I broke it down. Its less then $40 per month, per person in our family. Less then $10 per week. Looks like a bargin when you break it down like that! Who can' t afford that? Gotta love that way of thinking, don't ya?
